Atlantic Strings

We hired Atlantic Strings as a trio and they did an absolutely fantastic job. As a couple that has a musical ear and some music experience/ play instruments themselves, not a single wrong note! Perfectly in tune! Just the right volume, played BEAUTIFUL renditions of songs and sounded very full (a trio was enough!). I cannot recommend this group enough!

Atlantic Strings made our ceremony and cocktail hour wonderful! They worked with us to learn our first dance song, as I walked down the aisle to a slower version. They were really professional to work with and very talented!

Atlantic Strings was an incredible vendor to work with. They helped make our wedding ceremony even more special and beautiful than we could have imagined. We requested two special songs that were not in their repertoire and they knocked them out of the park - super accommodating and professional. They really elevated our wedding! Would 100% book them again if we had to do it over.

Atlantic Strings was the most beautiful string quartet I have ever heard play in my life so hiring them for our wedding ceremony was a no brainer! The music was perfect and the guests could not stop talking about how talented they were. Nina and her team are extremely quick to respond, attentive to details, can read the crowd well and professional. I felt so beautiful walking down the aisle to the song I picked for them to play and i can't imagine not having them there! Please don't think twice about booking Atlantic Strings!

Atlantic Strings Ensemble helped bring my husband's & I's ceremony and cocktail hour music dreams to life! Music is a big part of both of our families lives & we wanted that to be showcased during our day. We loved that we could incorporate classical, modern songs and older music that everyone could truly enjoy. Atlantic Strings played a mix of styles as we had asked & even learned two new songs for our ceremony which still gives me chills when I think about how beautiful it was! It really was the most amazing touch to our day!

We hired a string quartet from Atlantic Strings to play our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour, and could not have been happier. They played beautifully and it made for such a special touch to the day. Nina was so helpful leading up to the day, discussing song choices and preferences. We would highly recommend!

Atlantic strings made my dreams of having a violinist at our church ceremony come true! And the suggestion of having a cellist with the pianist we initially booked with them was a phenomenal one. (Verses another violinist for variety) Knowledgeable and talented, Nina is wonderful! The music was fabulous and the team was great. I can’t wait to book with her for future events to make them more special. Spectacular 🌟

We hired Atlantic Strings to play for our wedding and we could not have been happier! They had great communication during the booking process before the wedding. When our wedding was postponed due to COVID, they were completely flexible with switching to our new date. Our guests loved hearing them play some of our favorite songs during our ceremony and cocktail hour! They were even able to learn a song to surprise one of our guests with. The musicians were not only excellent but also incredibly kind. Thank you Atlantic Strings for being part of our day!

Atlantic Strings was very easy to work with. I was supported in constructing my song list, both with songs I already had in mind and song ideas when I was in need. They were timely and dressed professionally for the event. We loved how the music complemented our special day.

I was very picky about a string group because I myself play the violin, and Atlantic Strings did not disappoint! They sound great online and they sound even better in person. We were very happy with their broad repertoire and felt we could personalize our ceremony and cocktail hour. Highly recommend!

We hired Atlantic Strings for our wedding and we're so happy we did! Nina was easy to work with, and the quartet was able to play our song requests (Bruno Mars, Stevie Wonder, Train) and sounded fantastic! Highly recommend!

I cannot speak highly enough about our Atlantic Strings trio! They made our backyard wedding ceremony into a true fairytale dream. Walking down the aisle to their music was one of the best wedding decisions we made. Nina was great to work with and very organized and her and the musicians were able to learn the song we requested for just the cost of the music. I 100% recommend having them as part of your special day.

We hired Atlantic Strings for our wedding and we were blown away. They filled the entire space with music - no amplification needed. We had them play a range of genres from classical to popular rock songs and they nailed it all. Not only were they able to have a song arranged for the walk down the aisle they were able to have one arranged and adjusted to waltz timing to make our first dance extra special and totally unique. Atlantic Strings made our wedding unforgettable and one of a kind. Nina was easy to work with and made it all go off without a hitch.

I recently hired a trio from Atlantic Strings to play for my backyard wedding ceremony. They were truly exceptional - the music was so beautiful and I received so many compliments. Furthermore, the Atlantic Strings team was very flexible as I had to change my wedding plans around 3+ times due to COVID-19 which I greatly appreciate. Overall, I highly recommend Atlantic Strings - they are professional, timely, and incredibly talented! Thank you for to their team for my making my wedding ceremony so special!

Hiring Atlantic Strings is one of the best decisions we’ve ever made! Beautiful musicians and beautiful music! Highly professional!

This is the second time we have used the Atlantic Strings for a wedding ceremony. They sounded beautiful and were so easy and professional to work with. Several people at the wedding mentioned how great they were. I highly highly recommend them!

My husband and I first met playing in an orchestra, so music was very important to us when planning our wedding. We hired a quartet from the Atlantic Strings for our ceremony (mostly classical music) and for the cocktail hour (classical and more modern music). We had a special song in mind that I wanted to walk down the aisle to, so Atlantic Strings arranged the song for us -- our special song made the moment even more magical! It was very easy to work with Nina Bishop Dunn, and we really appreciate that Atlantic Strings accommodated our many song requests!

The musicians played beautiful music and were very professional. If I were getting married again, I would hire them again!

Atlantic Strings is an extremely professional and talented quartet. They played beautifully and were a huge hit at my daughter's wedding. Nina Bishop is very prompt in responding to requests and questions. She made the planning process quite easy. I highly recommend them for any wedding or formal affair.

Atlantic Strings did a beautiful job playing our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour. We received so many compliments from guests, and they provided such a memorable touch to a beautiful day.

I chose Atlantic Strings after a ton of research into string quartets. I was so happy that we ended up choosing them for our wedding at the end of August. I asked them to learn 2 new songs for me, and have to admit I was somewhat scared proceeding without hearing the songs first. I was so incredibly surprised when the songs came out more perfect then I could have ever imagined. I was moved to tears the first time they started to practice because of how good they are. You will not regret your decision to have Atlantic Strings play for your event! Thank you all so much for making my wedding so beautiful.

They were so incredible at my wedding a few days ago. Nina is so easy to work with, she had the musicians learn a new song, changed it to a slower tempo, and shortened the beginning so that the right part would play as I approached the alter. All my guests loved the modern pop songs being played by the string duo. Worth every penny!

We decided in the week leading up to the wedding we wanted to have a string quartet for our ceremony and cocktail hour. We came across Atlantic Strings as being well reviewed, and thankfully they were available and responded very quickly. They had a number of pop and classic songs available to choose from, which all sounded great. They did a fantastic job on the day of the wedding. We highly recommend the Atlantic Strings!

We just had a string quartet from Atlantic Strings play for our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour at the Crane Estate in Ipswich. They were excellent. The music was amazing. We had them play classical songs at the ceremony and pop songs for the cocktail hour. They had a list of songs on their website which was helpful in picking out what we wanted for our ceremony. Reasonably priced. Loved them!

We hired Nina and her team for our indoor ceremony in April 2018 and they were great. Nina was very responsive early on with our questions. There was a good variety of classical and modern song choices and there was an option to request a song if it was not on their set list. We went with a trio and modern music and things went very smoothly. Nina and her team arrived on time, were set up, and performed brilliantly for an awesome ceremony.

I can't say enough good things about Atlantic Strings. First, their sound quality was terrific. Simply put, they are very good musicians. They were also very friendly, and a nice presence at the ceremony. Coordinating with Nina beforehand was a breeze. She was professional and prompt in responding. They were a wonderful choice for our wedding!

We had Atlantic Strings play the music for our church ceremony. They were so SO beautiful. One of my cousins even requested they keep playing after the ceremony was over because they were so amazing!! Nina was a great contact throughout the whole planning process. She was very helpful and prompt with her responses!! They even made some special accommodations for us. I wanted my cousin to sing the Ave Maria during the mother's procession, and Atlantic String showed up early to practice with her that morning and it came out perfect! I HIGHLY recommend using Atlantic Strings for your event!!

They did our reception in May2017 and the experience was incredible and amazing. Nina she is super sweet and she really knows what she is doing, I do not have words how special they were. Thank you so much Fernanda&Justin Cutter

Truly the best ever! Our guests went on and on about how much they enjoyed the music at our ceremony and cocktail reception at the Four Seasons. The music progressed from beautifully played, traditional classical music at our ceremony to jazz and pop at the cocktail. The musicians looked impeccable and sounded even better. Five stars, would give ten if I could!

Atlantic Strings was AMAZING! I'm so glad my fiancé found them for our wedding! Nina was super friendly and knowledgeable. She suggested a lot of beautiful, classy pieces. The guests loved the music, and we got lots of complements. I loved that they were so professional and I didn't have to worry about anything the day of and could just enjoy my day!

We booked the Atlantic Strings quartet for our wedding. It was great having live classical music for our ceremony and cocktail hour. We wanted a particular song for our bridal party to walk out to and they were able to accommodate our request. I would highly recommend them!

Atlantic Strings played at our wedding - both the ceremony and the reception. They were super flexible about our music requests and played each song exquisitely. Their hard work really set the tone for a perfect evening wedding, and I couldn't be happier. I highly recommend this vendor, they are fabulous!

I worked with Nina and her talented group for my daughter's wedding in July at the NE Aquarium. Nina was wonderful to work with; she responded quickly to my calls and emails. The quartet even learned a new song at the wedding couple's request. They presented professionally and played beautifully. We received numerous compliments on the music and would highly recommend.

I loved working with Atlantic Strings. Nina was so pleasant and responsive and the quartet did an amazing job at our wedding. I was so happy with the music and had many comments after the wedding about what a great job they did. Thank you!!

The Atlantic Stings were the perfect wedding Quartet, creating the beautiful atmosphere for our daughter's magnificent June milestone ceremony at the Royal Sonesta. The musicians were professional, talented, and very musical, creating the beautiful ambience to welcome our guests to the venue, while establishing the perfect mood of love, respect and dignity throughout the ceremony from the wedding procession to the recession. Many of our family and guests are professional musicians, and they commented on the wonderful musical talents of the Atlantic Strings and the quality of their musicianship. It was a pleasure working with Nina Bishop Nunn and the Atlantic Stings, and it is with enthusiasm, confidence, and without any hesitation that I highly recommend this outstanding quartet for weddings or all special occasions! We will always cherish the beautiful music played by the Atlantic Stings, and the role the musicians and their music played in our daughter's milestone celebration.

We booked Atlantic String’s string quartet for our wedding ceremony, and they were fantastic! They were a perfect complement to our outdoor ceremony, bringing a classic sound and elegance to our venue. They played prelude music (during seating), the wedding party processional, the bride’s processional, and the recessional. Atlantic String’s repertoire is vast, and there are plenty of classical, jazz, and contemporary songs to choose from. You can also choose to have songs that are not in their catalog arranged for a small fee, which we opted to do for our wine ceremony. They did an amazing job with that arrangement…it was perfect! Nina Bishop Nunn, the Director, was very easy to communicate with via email, and they used an easy, secure, online payment system (which we appreciated). We received a lot of compliments from our wedding guests about how good Atlantic Strings sounded and the lovely atmosphere that their presence created. We couldn’t agree more!

Nina Bishop Nunn and her fellow musicians were perfect for our 85 person wedding in an old, vaulted ceiling building. They played as guests arrived, during the ceremony and for cocktail hour, about 90minutes total. Nina was so communicative leading up to the wedding day and the trio arrived on time, set up quickly and played beautifully. People don't often think about music beyond the DJ, but having Nina and her trio play set such a gorgeous and elegant tone that just elevated the ceremony.

Atlantic Strings made our wedding a dream! I'm a professional musician and most of the guests at our wedding were also musicians and they impressed us all. We couldn't have been happier!

Atlantic Strings was WONDERFUL!! I seriously cannot say enough good things about this group. My fiance and I are both musicians, so we were super picky when choosing music for our engagement party, and couldn't have been happier. Nina, the owner, was super easy to work with and very professional. The group looked wonderful and played beautifully. Our guests raved about their skill level, and I cannot wait to have them play for our wedding as well! I strongly recommend to every other bride!!

We hired a string quartet from Atlantic Strings and they did not disappoint! They provided beautiful music, an elegant aesthetic, and professional organization both leading up to and on the day of the wedding. They played all of our requests (even the unusual ones!) and on top of everything else, they were friendly and happy to be there! The music can make or break your big day. Don't take chances... go with Atlantic Strings!

My wife and I hired Atlantic Strings to play before and during our ceremony. They were absolutely wonderful - we corresponded with Nina during the planning and she was always prompt and very easy to work with. Before the ceremony, we were waiting in a room close enough to hear the quartet and they sounded great. During the ceremony they played two new arrangements . Both songs were very meaningful to us and their versions were perfect - many of our guests commented on how great they sounded. We cannot recommend Atlantic Strings highly enough!

I had Atlantic Strings play at my wedding at the Harvard Faculty Club this past August. I Couldn't have asked for a better team! Nina is quick to respond to inquires. The musicians were extremely talented (also impressed us with wonderful performances of our special request songs that they learned for us!). Atlantic Strings were everything I dream of for my ceremony and cocktail hour. Thank you Atlantic Strings!

Atlantic Strings performed at our ceremony and cocktail hour. While I was in such a daze walking into the ceremony to meet my husband on the stage, I did pay attention to the music as we walked out together and I was THRILLED with our beautiful it sounded. Everyone who attended cocktail hour talked nonstop at dinner about how wonderful the trio was, and how it was a favored part of the evening. We would DEFINITELY recommend Atlantic Strings to anyone who is interested in live music at their wedding, or any event. Thank you so much for making our wedding so memorable!

The trio played at my daughter's outdoor wedding at the Cambridge Multicultural Arts Center and the cocktail hour following. They were wonderful. Nina was very helpful and answered emails so promptly and thoroughly. The music was beautiful, and the trio elegant. True professionals in every way.

Kevin and I were thrilled to have found Atlantic Strings!! Nina and the Trio added the PERFECT touch to the romantic, elegant, and joyous wedding that we hoped for. As others have accurately stated, Nina is incredibly professional and instills confidence from the very beginning. We were very impressed by the timeliness of her responses to our questions and emails, and were equally impressed with Atlantic Strings' extensive song choices! Whether you're looking for pure classical music, more modern tunes, or music to be customized for your event, you have come to the right place! Our trio was on-time, professional, warm, and executed our plans just as we hoped. Thank you for adding this special and beautiful touch to our wedding day!!! -Amy & Kevin

We got married in September 2015, and Atlantic Strings played for our outdoor wedding ceremony and cocktail hour, and we were so happy with them! We chose all of the songs for our ceremony from their repertoire, and they worked with our cousin to accompany her singing Ave Maria during the ceremony. For the cocktail hour, we asked them to play pop music, and they did a great job selecting songs. Nina was very organized throughout the planning process and the whole quartet sounded beautiful!

Nina was such a pleasure to work with for our Boston wedding in October. Very professional and very accommodating to our special music requests. Our guests loved every moment they played. Highly recommended and thank you Nina to you and your wonderful musicians for making our day so extra special.

We chose Atlantic Strings because we wanted more modern music played on classical instruments. We went with the duo (Violin and Cello.) Nina was always professional to deal with and responded quickly to our questions. She worked closely with us to develop our playlist including some special request songs that we had. Our guests absolutely enjoyed the music provided during the prelude and cocktail hour. Our only regret as bride and groom is that we did not have time to enjoy their music as well for obvious reasons, or to personally thank the musicians that played on our wedding day.

Nina and the whole Atlantic Strings group were great to work with. From the moment I first reached out to them to their last song at our cocktail hour everything went so smoothly. They helped me pick out the right songs and were even able to order arrangements for us for music that was not in their library and played them beautifully at our ceremony. I got so many complements from all our guests on our ceremony and cocktail hour music. Besides playing beautiful music, they were real pros - they knew their way around our venue, they arrived early, worked out the necessary signals with our officiant and coordinator and I didn't have to worry about a thing!

We had a quartet play at our ceremony at the Wickenden Chapel at Tabor Academy. They were outstanding performers and very professional. They played a number of different selections, ranging from U2 to Pachelbel's Canon in D. Nina was extremely helpful throughout the process of music selection and all other aspects leading up to the day of the wedding. She responded to all emails promptly and coordinated well with one of our friends who we designated to give the quartet cues during the ceremony. I cannot recommend Atlantic Strings highly enough.

I recently used Atlantic Strings for my outdoor wedding ceremony in Portsmouth, NH this past August. Nina, the owner and contact person, was always quick to respond with any questions and offered many ideas to help me in an area that I didn't know much about! I originally hired a string duo but at the last minute changed it to a string trio since we had money in the budget and I wanted a few songs that required a more full sound. All the guests commented on how beautiful everything was and it really added that special touch to the ceremony. While I was taking pictures beforehand around the site I could hear them playing the prelude music off in the distance and it sounded beautiful! The sound really carries (not in a bad way though) and it was so nice. Everything else was kind of a blur once the ceremony started honestly, but I watched our video and they still sounded great on the tape and played the requested songs I asked for. My wedding coordinator also said they were on time and there were no other issues the day of.

We looked around and listened to a bunch a samples online. They are even better in person. So easy to work with! We selected a few songs and then let the group select the rest. They were fabulous.

Hired Atlantic Strings to play at our wedding at Glen Magna Farms in Danvers in August 2014. Atlantic Strings did a great job, was easy to work with, and reasonably priced. We interacted with the group leader Nina Biship. Very professional. Helped us plan the music.

My wedding was in June 2015 at the Boston Harbor Hotel. Atlantic Strings was amazing! Nina was also a joy to work with. My guests loved the music! Very professional and talented! Thank you!

More beautiful than I'd even imagined.. Atlantic Strings were simply 'perfection' at our garden wedding. Nina worked diligently with me in advance to help choose the right music for both our ceremony and cocktail hour; she even learned new music for us and worked with our own soloist (who they accompanied) in advance. True professionals one and all, never enough thanks to you for making our day so special.
