I DO NOT recommend booking with Cloud 9! Communication and organization was extremely lacking. My planner will be taking them off her recommendations list.
Many of my questions w...
ere left unanswered and some emails were not even responded to at all. No one reached out to set up a meeting, so two weeks before my wedding date, I scheduled a phone call. During this call (10 days before our wedding), I had to explain the timeline as if it had not been clearly outlined in an email one month prior. I was also given vague instructions to provide shade for the musicians despite my asking via email one month prior for details and assistance in planning. I expressed discontent in a professional manner, but begrudgingly stated that we would figure something out in the next 10 days. Later I was told that someone had complained to my planner that I was a “challenging bride to work with.”
On our wedding day, we had friends set up a large, aesthetically pleasing umbrella, but when I arrived at the ceremony venue, it had been pushed aside and an ugly tent had been erected in addition. Combined, the umbrella and tent took over half of the ceremony space. The chairs had also been rearranged without our consent. When it was time for me to walk with my father, the musicians were not playing the correct song. I had to wave down our photographer to ask them to play the processional song.
The cherry on top was when all 4 musicians stood up and left 30 minutes before the end of cocktail hour. Our contract stated that the end time was 7:30, but at 7:00 I looked over and saw 4 empty chairs. Luckily our DJ stepped in with a portable speaker.
Cloud 9 was the worst of all our vendors to work with.
Cloud 9 played for our wedding ceremony and our cocktail hour. The string quartet was absolutely beautiful, and one of our favorite parts of our wedding!

music, and they did an amazing job! I had them play tradition wedding music for the ceremony, then more pop music during the cocktail hour! It was fun and beautiful! We are so happy that we had them at our wedding!!
Cloud 9 played our ceremony music at Camp Hale and really helped to create the ambiance we wanted for our special day! They have a huge song book and are very fairly priced, as wel...

The one ‘wish list’ option I had for our wedding was a string quartet and I was thrilled when we found Cloud 9. They fit our budget, had a wide range of music we wanted for our cer...
emony and cocktail option, and helped get my dream song to walk down the aisle too. All our guests loved the string quartet during the cocktail hour! I just wished we’d had more time to enjoy their music!!
They were on-time, very communicative though the process and sounded great! Great working with them!
Cloud 9 Strings recently played at my May 22 wedding in the Denver Botanic Gardens. They did such a lovely job and created the most beautiful ambience. We even had snow a few days ...
before the wedding, dropping temperatures, and they worked with us and the venue to play inside the Woodland Mosaic Solarium with heaters, so that their instruments would be protected but we could still have music for the ceremony and cocktail hour. Communication with Cloud 9 Strings via email leading up to the wedding was a little slower than other vendors, so just don't be afraid to follow-up when needed. Overall, I would definitely recommend this string quartet for any wedding or special event.
I am a wedding planner and Cloud 9 did an amazing job! They were flexible and very talented. Loved having live music for the ceremony and cocktail hour!
To say Cloud 9 Strings was the highlight of our wedding is an understatement, they brought an element of elegance that surpassed our expectations! They were extremely accommodating...
with the music the played live as well as helping us play pre-recorded pieces for our special dances! They provided all genres of music with sophistication, class, and a true sense of entertainment! -- Thank you!

our cocktail hour and dinner reception at the Broadmoor. I’m still in amazement how beautiful they played ALL of our music selections. They are definitely very talented and versatile group of musicians. They are also very easy to work with and has wide variety of songs they can play for you! Thank you Cloud9 strings for setting an elegant ambiance to our wedding and I’m so glad I was able to have a recording of y’all while we out out during the cocktail hours. I can listen to y’all over and over again for days!
Booking a string quartet was one of my top three priorities for my wedding day, and I am so happy we chose Cloud 9! A string quartet at a wedding really sets the tone for elegance ...
and classic romance, and Cloud 9 delivered just that. They were professional, talented, and brought to life the wedding vision that I had been dreaming of since I was a little girl!! Some of my clearest and favorite memories of my wedding day are of sneaking around the mansion grounds to find corners to hide behind before the ceremony so that I could hear the quartet play while not letting anyone see me!! Cloud 9 was a dream to work with. They gladly created a song arrangement when I had a special request for the song I walked down the aisle to that wasn’t part of their repertoire, and any specific song requests we had were included, too. From movie songs, to Elvis, The Beach Boys, and The Beatles, to classics like Pachelbel, Cloud 9 meticulously blended it all together to create such a beautiful and meaningful soundtrack to the happiest day of our lives! Booking with Cloud 9 is one of the best and easiest decisions we made about our wedding day. My only regret is that, as the bride, I was too busy being pulled in different directions to really sit and enjoy their beautiful music! We are very much looking forward to getting our wedding video back so we can hear all the music we missed that day!! Thank you, Cloud 9!!!
Cloud 9 Strings was wonderful to work with. Very professional and helpful.
Their music helped make my daughter’s wedding beautiful.
Highly recommend them for everyone.
My husband and I LOVED having Cloud 9 Strings at our wedding and during cocktail hour. We had a Harry Potter-themed wedding at the Daniels and Fisher Clocktower in Downtown Denver ...
and they LEARNED THE HARRY POTTER THEME SONG JUST FOR US!!!! That alone was incredible, but their talents can't be understated. From the moment our guests arrived, they were immersed in the magical world.
I really enjoyed having the Clout 9 Strings at my Wedding. I loved that their business manager gave me a worksheet and they could play all my requests. They have done MANY weddings...
so do not necessarily need to be there for the rehearsal which was actually kind of nice. They just showed up the day of and knew exactly what to do. My photographer who has been shooting weddings for 30+ years said they were some of the best strings he's ever heard! Thank you Cloud 9 Strings !
Cloud 9 was absolutely amazing! We had a custom piece arranged for the wedding, and we could not have been happier. They were beyond professional and were completely brilliant on o...
ur wedding day. They added the perfect ambiance to the day. We cannot recommend Cloud 9 enough!
Cloud 9 String Quartet was awesome! They learned some special music to accommodate my son-in-law's request and took the time to learn an original piece of music composed by his br...
other. This was all flawlessly coordinated by their manager, Shelley. On the day of the wedding (which was held in Colorado Springs) the weather was cold, windy and snowy. Although the Cloud 9 group had to commute from Denver, they arrived on time and were flexible with our changing arrangements. While the ceremony took place on an outside patio with heaters, blankets and hot drinks (so cozy, especially when the snow started to fall!) they played inside to protect their instruments from the cold, just on the other side of the floor to ceiling windows with the door propped open so we could hear their beautiful music. I appreciated the fact that they were all so cheerful and kind. As a violinist myself, I was impressed with the talent of the Cloud 9 quartet and I highly recommend the group if you want to add some style and class to your event!
Everyone at Cloud 9 was super easy to work with and very professional. And they drove all the way to Avon on a Friday! My guests were very complimentary of the beautiful music du...

ecommend Cloud 9 to anyone that is looking for a string quartet or any string band for their wedding.
I really wanted a string quartet for our wedding ceremony music, but my husband is more of a rock and roll kind of guy. We were so excited to discover Cloud 9! The string quartet...
played for both our ceremony and cocktail hour, and the mixture of rock and pop song selections was a big hit with our guests. Shelley was extremely responsive and helpful throughout the entire booking process, and we couldn't have been more pleased with the talent and professionalism of the musicians. Hiring Cloud 9 String Quartet was one of the best wedding planning decisions I made!
We hired them and signed a contract with them but they sent other musicians. They were suppose to be fantastic but what we got was less than acceptable. we requested 10 songs of wh...
ich they played only 2 and 1 was played repeatedly. Sounded awful , off key like beginners. We are very disappointed.
Amazing musicians!!! Highly recommended!! They played all the music selections I requested. Our ceremony was wonderful. Classic and beautiful. Perfect for any formal occasion!!
As the bride I didn't get to hear much of the music live. But we received so many compliments for the quartet! This was a part of the wedding I really wanted for my guests and our ...
special moment being pronounced husband and wife, they played the song we'd been talking about incorporating in our wedding for years. It sounded phenomenal!!!!
