Bella Musica

My apologies as I’m so late at giving this review since my wedding was 5/1/21. Antoeneta did an amazing job as our solo violinist for our bridal party walk! I would absolutely recommend her over and over again! Thank you so much for adding such beautiful music to our wedding.

Antoaneta and her team were fantastic to work with. She had wonderful advice and ideas to help guide my choices for ceremony music. I wanted our recessional song to be a new-ish pop piece that they had never played before and Antoaneta was quick to find it for us. The musicians sounded wonderful! I really wanted a cello and violin duo for my ceremony music and initially, I was just going to have the DJ play the rest of the reception. Less than a month before the wedding I asked Antoaneta if I could have the musicians perform the cocktail hour as well and she was so quick to respond and get that done for us on short notice. The musicians sounded amazing for the ceremony and cocktail hour and I was so, so glad I added them for the cocktail hour as well. Antoaneta and her company were so wonderful to work with for our wedding!

Antoaneta and her team were amazing. The sound was flawless and all of our guest expressed how beautiful the live music sounded. Antoaneta is absolutely great to work with and she is very responsive, ( I never had to wait to hear back from her) she definitely added to our wedding day and we’re really happy that we selected Bella Musica

Bella Musica made my ceremony unforgettable! The string trio was the perfect final touch to our ceremony.

I loved Antoaneta Ortiz! She sounded beautiful, showed up on time and was so accommodating and easy to get in touch with the whole time. She had a wonderful and broad selection of songs to perform and fit exactly what I envisioned for my wedding day.

My husband and I were so happy with our wedding music! Not only were we able to enjoy classical songs but were able to customize our ceremony with modern songs. The musicians are extremely talented and I would highly recommend them!

We were very happy that we chose Bella Musica. Antoaneta was quick to respond to all questions and requirements. The music was just PERFECT. Highly recommend!!!

I used Bella Musica for my ceremony and cocktail hour. I am still getting compliments on how wonderful they were. Bella Musica took my wedding to another level with their wonderful performance. Antoaneta Ortiz is amazing to work with. She takes this very seriously and everything went flawlessly. Their song list is extensive and I even had a few one off requests. She quickly found them and I so enjoyed hearing cantina band from star wars at the cocktail hour!! This company is simply the best!

Bella Musica was amazing! They played at our church wedding. They were everything that I dreamed of for my wedding. They are talented and professional musicians and the instruments sounded absolutely beautiful. They were also very professional and organized when we met to discuss the wedding details. Thank you Bella Musica!

We loved Bella Musica's music! They were great to work with and very flexible with what we wanted. Thank you!

We used the string quartet for our wedding May 26th,2018 in St Francisville. They were very easy to communicate with and also helped me pick out the music selection for our ceremony and cocktail hour. Music was just beyond beautiful! Thank you Bella Musica!

We had Bella Musica playing at our March 25, 2017 wedding at Houmas House and they were wonderful. We got so many compliments about how beautiful the music was and how it fit the location and ambiance of a plantation wedding. Antoaneta was very accessible and always provided prompt responses to any questions I had. She also sent a list of suggested music for our reference, but allowed us to make any changes to the song list that we wished. I received quotes from quite a few string musician groups, and Bella music was the most reasonably priced and had great reviews! I was so happy with how the music sounded and it added a very intimate feel to our wedding ceremony. I highly recommend Antoaneta and Bella Musica!

Eric and Bella Musica were perfect for our beach wedding. They coordinated very well with our DJ (who managed the sound system) and their music created the perfect ambiance. They played beautifully, even when the wind picked up causing noise and some sand to be blown... and they responded like it was not a thing :) The skill and talent of these musicians cannot be understated - they are truly expert musicians. The also arranged a beautiful rendition of Water Is Wide, which we had two of our family members (who are both professional broadway actors) sing. My only wish is that they could have come up with the arrangement sooner, as that would have allowed our vocalists to rehearse more and practice together sooner than the weekend of the wedding due to tour schedules. Overall, we were thrilled and HIGHLY recommend them to anyone looking for the highest quality music at their ceremony.

Antoaneta was a delight to work with. She met with me personally 9 months ahead of time and meticulously went over the music selections. She was gracious when we made changes and her sole intent was for the bride to be happy! Her group showed up early, and was professionally dressed. Their musical contribution to our ceremony was everything we wanted it to be!

We hired Bella Musica for our wedding. They were absolutely amazing! All of my guests complemented on the music. They have a variety of music to choose from making the day more special for us. The best part for me was how professional they were! I didn't have to worry about a thing! Thanks Bella Musica!

The exquisite music performed by the Bella Musica Quartet for my daughter's wedding was an important contribution to the ceremony and making her dreams for that special day come true. All of the consultation beforehand provided me with an answer to every question and advice for every worry. I could not be more pleased with the result. Thanks you so much, Tony!

Working Bella Musica was a wonderful experience. They were incredibly helpful with song suggestions for our ceremony as well. That helped us a lot because they can play anything really and we had a hard time deciding on what we liked more. We chose to use the violin and cello for our ceremony and it was amazing. Thereally preference was beautiful and lovely to hear. As I walked down the aisle and heard all the songs my hubby and I picked out, it just made that moment even more special. We pick the Swan for my song and it almost made me tear up and it made my hubby tear up as well. We have listened to it since then at home and it just brings that moment back to us. We were both so happy with the preformance, how it made the whole atmosphere of the wedding so romantic, and how everyone else loved it just as much. We had guest come to us during the reception and comment on how beautiful it was and how having someone play the violin and cello was a perfect touch. We could not be happier with Bella Musica and I would recommend them to any and everyone in the area. If you want a special and romantic touch, then go with them for sure. We had an outside wedding and it was not a problem for them at all.

Exceptional service and performance!!! We hired Bella Musica to play classical music during cocktail hour. We were on a very tight budget and needed a good deal. However, my husband is an established musician and therefore could not justify forsaking quality of musicianship/talent for cost. Bella Music came highly recommended by others in the industry so we gave them a call. Antoaneta was so sweet and willing to work with us in every aspect. Her musicianship is absolutely top notch and prices were spot on. We were so pleased with the song choices, volume, professionalism, presentation and charm. Couldn't be happier!! I would absolutely hire them again without a thought! ... And I'm picky!

Truly happy with the performance of Bella Musica. They provided amazing services and made our wedding event complete. Could not have been more perfect!!! Dena & Ivy Alberes

Antoaneta and her musicians did a fantastic job at my wedding! I was so grateful to have chosen them.I would recommend Bella Musica to anyone looking for elegant entertainment!

We chose Bella Musica for our wedding ceremony musicians. They were absolutely FABULOUS! Everyone was extremely impressed and loved the beautiful music. Antoaneta is wonderful and so easy to work with! I highly recommend Bella Musica to anyone looking for amazing musicians!

Bella Musica performed with a string quartet at my husband and my wedding. It was stunning and flawlessly performed! We could not have picked a better group! Antoaneta is so sweet and professional and really worked with us on determining the perfect sound for our wedding. So grateful for her! Everyone at our wedding was (and still is) so impressed with them. Thank you all so much for your beautiful work!

Bella Musica performed flawlessly at our daughter's wedding. Their attention to detail and meticulous planning helped ensure that all would go well. We cannot thank them enough for their beautiful music that created the perfect ambiance for one of the most important celebrations of our lives. Brenda Nixon

Bella Musica provided a violinist and cellist for my daughters May 2015 wedding. They were a beautiful and elegant addition to the ceremony. Antoaneta Ortiz is very professional and easy to work with. I would definitely use them again and I would highly recommend Bella Musica to others!

I loved our ceremony musicians! Antoaneta was willing to meet with me and go everything before the wedding. She was prompt to answer emails. She showed up on time and everything went off without a hitch! Our wedding was everything we could have ever dreamed of. We thank Bella Musica for being a part of it and helping to make it so special! They are so talented; don't hesitate to book or inquire!

Bella Musica was the perfect touch to our ceremony Under the Oaks at Nottoway Plantation in White Castle, LA. They were extremely helpful in picking the perfect music for the moment and the performance was sweet, beautiful and elegant! Bella Musica is the perfect choice for any classy event!

Antoaneta was playing the violin beautifully on the path of The Shaw Center. I thought my boyfriend and I were in such a romantic scene, and little did I know he was about to propose to me. Antoaneta playing the violin for us really set the tone and the mood. She beautifully played "Marry Me", as my boyfriend got down on one knee. She helped create a fairy tale proposal for us! We couldn't have been more pleased!

I booked Bella Musica eleven months in advance because I wanted to have the best experience for our wedding. Antoaneta was pleasant to work with and very helpful. I had so many compliments about the ceremony music. I cannot wait to hear and see our wedding video for the final product! Overall, I would definitely recommend them for any event, especially for your big day :)

Hired these musicians to play before, during, and after (cocktail hour) my ceremony. They were excellent. I even asked them to play a song that they never heard before, and they learned it played it amazingly well. Very professional and so very talented. I would hire them again in a heartbeat.

Antoaneta Ortiz and Bella Musica are fantastic. I contacted Bella Musica for a violin to be played at my outdoor ceremony. It was beautiful and made the day absolutely perfect!! Communication was wonderful. I chose all the songs for my ceremony from the samples on the Bella Musica website and YouTube. I couldn't find anyone locally but Bella Musica was available to travel. Very reasonably priced and worth every penny! The violin was classy and beautiful, perfect!!

I had Antoaneta playing solo violin at my wedding in The Ritz-Carlton, New Olreans and the music was absolutely beautiful! She played popular and classical pieces from her repertoire and added so much elegance to our wedding!

I cannot say enough about how beautiful was the music performed by your string trio! Thank you for being so wonderful to work with and for doing such an amazing job! I will recommend Bella Musica to anyone looking for elegant entertainment!

I recently used Bella for my Wedding ceremony and was more than pleased with them. Antoaneta was a pleasure to work with. She responded to all emails in a timely manner. All my request were easy to maintain and she went out of her way to find sheets of music at no cost. I would highly recommend them.

I strongly recommend Bella Musica. Antoaneta provided my ceremony music for my outdoor wedding at Nottoway Plantation. She was not only great at what she does (play the violin), but very easy to work with. We communicated through email and video conference as I had a destination wedding. She was very accommodating to meet with me and provide demos of her work as needed. The music was amazing.

Bella Musica made my wedding ceremony so spectacular! It was an absolute pleasure to work with them -- from the pre-wedding consultation to the creation of the set list, I couldn't be happier! The professionalism and quality are unbeatable. I will definitely be recommending them to any future bride I come in contact with! Thank you Bella Musica for the beautiful music that added such a special touch to our wedding!

Bella Musica met and exceeded all of our expectations for our outdoor wedding. They traveled an extensive distance from Baton Rouge and even showed up earlier than they were contracted for. I worked with Antoaneta for several months before the wedding and she was always available and able to meet all of our requests. We asked for them to play two special songs that they had never played before, and they accommodated with no problem. We even asked them to change the tempo of one of our special requests (we wanted it played slower than is normally called for) and they were able to do this with no problems. Everything they played was beautiful. I can honestly say that I don't beleive that anyone else that we could have contracted would have done it better. Also, their pricing was VERY competitive with other musicians that we looked into. All in all, if we had to do it all over again, I wouldn't even think about going with anyone else. I would recommend Bella Musica to anyone looking to add a beautiful, personal touch to their wedding. Thanks Antoaneta!

Absolutely the best!! Antoaneta is very personal and professional. I highly recommend her to everyone regardless of the occasion. She an excellent violinist. She made our wedding very memorable.

I would highly recommend Bella Musica! Antoaneta was extremely attentive and professional. It was as easy as us giving her a pick of the songs we liked from her extensive selection and her taking it from there and arranging them in the perfect order. She was even willing to learn new songs we selected. All of our guests commented on how beautiful the violinist sounded for our ceremony. I would absolutely use Bella Musica again! Michelle D

I contacted Antoaneta Ortiz 2 weeks before my wedding. She returned my call immediately, rearranged her schedule to fit us in and then learned the music we wanted. She was the first one at the ceremony and played beautifully. If you are in need of a musician for any event I highly recommend Bella Musica! Alexandra

I recently had my wedding at the Audubon Zoo Swamp Exhibit. I couldn't have chosen a better ceremony musician. She was so helpful with the music choices, and very reliable. I would 100% recommend Bella Musica to anyone!

Fabulous string trio for my wedding at White Oak Plantation. Highly recommend them!

We were very happy with the music that violinists from Bella Musica provided on our wedding! They were very easy to deal with, arrived earlier and played beautifully. They brought an elegant touch to our wedding in City Park.

Fabulous string trio for my wedding at White Oak Plantation. Highly recommend them!

I contacted Antoaneta Oritz 2 weeks before my wedding. She retuned my call immediately, rearranged her schedule to fit us in and then learned the music we wanted. She was the first one at the ceremony and played beautifully. If you are in need of a musician for any event I highly recommend recommend Bella Musica!

Bella Musica is a very professional company that tended to all of our worries, concerns, and questions. We had every question answered and thoroughly planned out exactly like we envisioned. The music was angelical and flawless. Every guest commented on the violinists music selection and how they were the best they have ever heard. If I ever have any event again, Bella Musica is saved on my phone and will be the first vendor I'll call. I called Antoaneta several times randomly and she picked up the phone every single time without delay. The company is very prompt and works with you to select the best music for your event. She has an extensive repertoire with both classical and popular selections. Highly recommend Bella Musica for any social occasion because they will elevate your event to another level. Thanks, Lecaro H.

Music was PERFECT! I couldn't have asked for more! You were so professional!

The musicians from Bella Musica were amazing! We had the string duo. they played selections from The Beatles. We loved the music!

Beautiful performance! My guests raved about her during the reception!! She was super easy to deal with, showed up early for my event, and even learned a special song that I requested. I would highly recommend her for your wedding!

I hired Bella Musica- violin and piano duo for the prelude to my ceremony. Also they played the music during the ceremony and it turn out that they were my favorite vendor. I found them very professional and the music was absolutely beautiful. My guests were impressed by the creativity of the musicians. I will strongly recommend Bella Musica and Antoaneta Ortiz for your memorable day!
