I am a wedding planner and can tell you that this group is absolutely fabulous. They are beyond professional and amazing at what they do. I will be recommending them to all of my future clients.
Danielle was an absolute pleasure to work with! She brought such fun and bright energy to our wedding day with her beautiful music! She was always available for a call and we had so much fun planning our ceremony song list with her. She had cre...
ative suggestions and helped us come up with a song list that was so personal and meaningful for us! She is so talented and we are so grateful for the way she elevated our wedding ceremony with such beautiful music! Our guests absolutely loved hearing the violin as they entered our ceremony location and had so many compliments to share! Thank you so much Danielle!
Absolutely amazing experience! They were so thoughtful in making sure that they understood exactly what I was looking for and made my dream come to life! Highly recommend!
Any questions?
We are so happy we chose Divina Strings for our wedding! Ceremony music was very important to us, and we selected a somewhat lesser-known piece for our processional. Even though it wasn't in their usual repertoire, Danielle and her team played ...
the quartet so beautifully and timed the music perfectly with our walk down the aisle. Divina Strings has an extensive list of classical and pop songs, and the quality is impeccable. We would recommend them to any couple!
We hired Divinia Strings for my sister's wedding. I am a professional violinist myself, so I was involved with the planning process from start to finish. Danielle and her string quartet were incredible. They performed a special request we had ...
for the ceremony, and were great with communication. From pop tunes to classical pieces, they were flawless. Thanks Danielle and your team!
Danielle went above and beyond for us! We instantly connected and she understood my vision. She helped me create the experience and vibe I was going for, bringing together a DJ with live instrumentals (drums, electric violin, trumpet, and sax) ...
- it was amazing and a great mixup from a traditional DJ without going for a full band! We love her and her team <3 Would absolutely recommend Divina Strings to others for any music event needs!
Danielle from Divina was absolutely amazing! She captured my vision for my wedding day from the very beginning! She worked with me through the whole process, answered all of my questions in great time, and assured me my day of music would go ex...
actly how I pictured it. SHE WAS NOT WRONG! She made my wedding day everything and more! If you are looking for a violinist for your wedding, look no further than Divina Strings! You will not regret it!
Danielle was so awesome to work with during the process. My daughter's ceremony wouldn't have been the same without Danielle and her fellow artists. Love, love, love!!!
Working with Divina Strings was a great decision for our wedding! The process of booking a cellist and a guitarist for our ceremony was easy, smooth, and everyone was courteous and professional. The two musicians assigned, played beautifully ...
and we got many compliments from our guests. I highly recommend working with Divina Strings for your wedding!
Response from the Vendor on 06/01/2022
Thank you David! Your event was stunning and the vows get me every time. Sending you all the hugs xo
We had the quartet play for prior to our ceremony, ceremony and all of cocktail hour- we couldn’t have been any happier with how beautiful they sounded and the ambiance they projected over the entire experience. Our wedding was over a week ago...
and guests are contacting me to tell me what a beautiful addition it was to have them and how they were eager to hear each song that was played! Would absolutely have hired them 1000 times over and HIGHLY recommend working with them for your next event
Response from the Vendor on 06/01/2022
Elyse, one of my favorite events to perform at. We had so much fun getting to know your guests and taking their requests during the cocktail hour, too!
Danielle and her team are best in class. She arrived early, stayed late, and did an outstanding job delivering a diverse program of music throughout our wedding. Cannot recommend her more highly.
Response from the Vendor on 06/01/2022
Going above and beyond means to us focusing on what is best for the wedding itself. We do whatever it takes to make it happen, as if magical little fairies brought in all the gear, set it up, and took it down!
Working with Divina was a DREAM! They were such a special touch on our big day. I had been undecided about whether to include a string quartet for our wedding and I am so glad we made the decision to work with Danielle and do it. She heard ever...
y word of what I was looking for and made it happen - we got so many compliments on the music and how well it contributed to our vibe and day. Who knew strings could be so FUN?? Divina made it happen for us :)
Honestly I cannot say enough great things. Danielle, Heather and their team are absolutely incredible. It's a week later and my family and friends are still ranting and raving "where did you find them?" Now, on the app Danielle gives you, you p...
rovide her with links of your songs from youtube. Now realistically speaking you cannot ask someone with years of talent to "make sure it sounds like the YouTube version you love so much" however don't ask me how (especially when I gave Danielle songs SO LATE) she made them sound exactly like YouTube? Serious ear for music. Heather, our cantor, sent me her singing less than a minute of Amazing Grace. Boom. hired. Speechless. We won't even continue because I just have never heard someone sing like Heather. My entire church ceremony was a dream. As well as my first dance. I can't say thank you enough for making our music the exact way we wanted you guys really made our dreams come true.
We booked Divina Strings late in our wedding planning process due to some last minute changes, and we couldn't be happier that we worked with them! They were extremely responsive, easy to work with, and ready to jump right in with our limited p...
lanning timeline with a truly personal touch for our ceremony. Danielle is awesome, and she and her team worked with us to build bonus playlists for dinner. The musicians themselves were extremely talented, and so many of our guests said that having them play was one of their favorite parts of our ceremony. If you're looking for live music during a ceremony and cocktail hour, we highly recommend going with them.
Danielle and her husband did an AMAZING job at our intimate wedding this October. We had about 20 people in attendance at our outdoor ceremony, and every single guest mentioned how the music literally moved them to tears. They were a pleasure t...
o work with and truly made our day MAGICAL. It wouldn’t have been the same without them. THANK YOU!!
I have been lucky enough to work with Danielle multiple times for my clients events and she ALWAYS goes above and beyond for them even bringing in surprise guests and making it extra special! So lucky to be able to recommend her to clients.
I got married on October 25, 2019 and had Divina Strings for my ceremony and cocktail hour. They were amazing! They were dressed beautifully, their music was perfection. For the ceremony they played all classical songs per my request then for t...
he cocktail hour they played all modern pop songs which were amazing! They were professional, classy, elegant and the most perfect touch at our wedding. Danielle is so easy to talk to and work with! Thank you for making my wedding perfect!
We couldn’t be happier with the performance by Divina Strings. They made our ceremony magical with all of our favorite songs and they are extremely talented. It was really beautiful to hear them play and it’s exactly what we were hoping for . T...
hey were so easy to work with as well. We highly recommend them .
We had a wonderful experience with Divina Strings and Danielle! The string trio for my wedding was extremely professional and showed up well in advance to the start of my ceremony. We had some weather issues, and the musicians were more than ac...
commodating with the location changes. They played a fun mix of pop music, and set the tone for the rest of the evening. Thank you for making our day even more special and magical!
My husband and I got married last fall, and we had Divina Strings play at our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour. The group was very friendly and professional, and the music sounded so nice. Overall their performance was a gorgeous addition to ...
our wedding.
Danielle was easy to work with in advance of the wedding to plan the repertoire — including 2 custom songs included in the package! The group was super accommodating to the unique aspects of our venue: we got married at the top of Mt. Sunapee, which was only accessible by chairlift. Half the group welcomed guests arriving at the bottom of the mountain and half played for guests arriving at the top until the ceremony began, and the whole quartet (including the cello) made it up the mountain for the ceremony. Walking down the aisle to the beautiful strings is a moment we’ll never forget.
They also worked closely with our DJ to play along with our first dance and mother-son dances, including some choreography, which was a special touch and nice surprise.
Overall we would highly recommend them for any wedding!
Wow! Just wow! Divina Strings exceeded our expectations for our wedding ceremony. We had a string trio that played songs we selected as guests were arriving, for the ceremony and the recessional. The trio arrived early to set up and all were pr...
ofessional, friendly and dressed sharply. Our guests enjoyed hearing the pop covers they do so beautifully and it really set the vibe of whimsical fun that we were going for, "shake it off" is just a better song when they do it! My husband and I were over the moon happy that they agreed to do a string cover of "Where Is My Mind" by The Pixies for our recessional song, this song in particular is very important to us and the string trio nailed it, making the recessional exactly how I had imagined! I am so happy that we had the pleasure of working with them on our wedding day and I couldn't recommend them more to people considering their magical services!
Divina Strings was fabulous to work with for the ceremony of our May 2019 wedding. We hired them very early in the process - they were so easy to work with and very responsive. We got married at the Inn at Longshore and they have a long standin...
g relationship with them which made me feel very confident. I even had a special request, that they play with the band for one song, which they agreed to immediately and assured me that they would get in touch with them to coordinate. The day of was perfect and I didn’t have to worry about a thing.
We loved having Divina Strings at our wedding ceremony! It was the perfect complement to our vintage circus theme wedding. It was amazing to work with them and I’m so happy they were in Florida at this time. Thank you again!
Danielle at Divina Strings was very nice on the phone explaining everything to me when we were considering booking live music for our wedding ceremony (in October 2018). We decided to work with them and filled out a survey for certain songs for...
different parts of the ceremony. We hired them as a trio, which seemed to make sense for high quality sound without spending too much money. Leading up to the wedding Danielle was a little unresponsive due to the busy season. She would go without answering my email for over a week and she asked me to book a phone appointment before the wedding but then forgot to call me. Not to worry, we worked out any outstanding details and the music was beautiful the day of our wedding. It really added something extra and special for our ceremony and I would work with Danielle again for sure.
Divina Strings added the perfect touch to our wedding! We had them play during the reception and though as the Bride I only heard what they played as I walked down the isle - they did an amazing job! The day was windy and rainy but they added ...
such elegance that just drowned out the weather. Highly recommend!
Beautiful music! The violinist did a great job despite the freezing cold. They're really easy to work with and nice and were able to learn a song that I requested. 5/5 I'd hire them again.
Divina was so amazing for our wedding!
We first got in touch with Divina after doing some searching online. Danielle responded immediate to our request and we set up a time to talk. We knew we wanted a string trio for our ceremony, but beyond ...
that we weren't sure what to do for dinner and reception. Danielle offered to provide a curated music experience for the entire night and we jumped at the chance. She provided a flow to the whole event that was key. Our expectations were greatly exceeded by Danielle and her staff.
The music was great! We requested a mix of pop and classical for the ceremony and then Danielle put together an awesome live jazzy arrangement for dinner which was perfect. She then DJ'd the rest of the night and everyone had an awesome time. After the event the bar tenders said they had never seen a dance floor so full for so long!
On top of all of that, Danielle went the extra mile at every opportunity. She was always punctual and accommodating. We are not musicians by any stretch of the imagination so it was nice to be able to have an expert to trust! During the ceremony she was constantly checking on us. She even brought us appetizers that we wouldn't have other wise been able to try because we were busy signing our marriage certificate and getting picture taken. This meant so much to us - we were able to relax!
We got so many compliments on the music during and after the wedding. People still talk about it. I highly recommend booking Divina for your event!
We had a string trio for our wedding. They were wonderful. Everyone said what great, upbeat music they played. Very professional, and wonderful musicians!
Thanks for helping make our day great!
We booked Divina Strings for ceremony and cocktail hour music. Choosing Danielle and her team was easy, she was so friendly and incredibly helpful. We had a guitar and violin which were absolutely beautiful. It created such a cool atmosphere. ...
They played awesome songs and were so talented.
HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!
From the beginning I knew that we had to have live music during our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour. After speaking to Danielle on the phone I knew very quickly that Divina Strings would be the company that we would hire to perform on our bi...
g day. Danielle has such a warm and enthusiastic personality, her love for music is obvious. She really wanted to understand the vision we had for our wedding day and how to enhance it with music. The booking process was simple, we went with a string quartet. There was a song that I wanted played during the ceremony that wasn't in their repertoire but Danielle made it happen no problem. My husband and I were unable to make it to cocktail hour to hear them play but the guests all raved about their sound. The music during the ceremony was beautiful. I would recommend Divina Strings to anyone for their wedding!
Danielle is the best!! She was the perfect touch to my church ceremony and cocktail hour. She played awesome music and it was something guests were not expecting. She really made a nice touch to our day and we absolutely loved her as well. A...

We had a wonderful experience with Divina Strings and Danielle. When we were searching for musicians, she came to meet with us and talked us through our options -- she had a warmth and energy and that made us feel excited to work with her. She ...

The string trio was absolutely amazing!! We heard nothing but compliments on how beautiful the ceremony was. I can't wait to see the footage, and hear the beautiful music again. We unfortunately didn't get to hear them during cocktail hour or s...
peak with them prior. We were taking pictures when they got there, and during cocktail hour. Everyone was ecstatic they played the Game Of Thrones theme song . My only regret was with myself. I was sad that they didn't get something to eat or drink from the waitstaff during the cocktail hour. I would recommend them over and over again.
Divina String and Mario Manolo Salsa Band are amazing to work with and do an outstanding job for getting the crowd dancing to some amazing salsa music! I highly recommend this group and can not wait to work with them again.

music was heavenly and perfectly accompanied the flow and feeling of the ceremony. I opted to have the trio play through out cocktail hour and would highly recommend doing to. They played a fun mix of pop music, and set the tone for the rest of the evening.
I cannot say enough great things about Divina Strings!! Throughout the entire process, they were extremely professional, and I didn't feel like I was just working with a vendor. They made the conversations feel like I was talking to a friend! T...
heir music is outstanding! They play a mix of classical and current music and will even learn a song if you request. They played Pachabels Canon in D as I walked down the aisle, which I have thought about since I was a little girl and brought me to tears. Absolutely amazing!
WONDERFUL! They exceeded all expectations! The music set the exact tone we wanted for our ceremony. Danielle and Andrew were both easy to work with, listened, and delivered perfectly!

This entire process was one of the easiest I had during the wedding planning process and they made it seamless and organized!
Divina Strings was a wonderful addition to our Sunday wedding and provided music for the ceremony, cocktail hour, and the reception. Danielle was extremely patient and easy to work with. She went back and forth with me a few times as we tried t...
o nail down the right details. She was very helpful in figuring out what services Divina Strings could provide within our budget. We did not give her a lot of specifics other than the one or two genres we wanted for the day but the choices Danielle selected fit right in with our atmosphere. She was an excellent MC and kept the mood upbeat. Everyone was so friendly and sweet that day. From beginning to end, it was a really stress free process working with them and the music ended up being exactly what we wanted.

Divina Strings were amazing! They are very gifted musicians and have an incredible repertoire - everything from Mozart to the Beatles. Their beautiful music made our ceremony even more special. They were easy and enjoyable to work with thro...
ughout the whole process - even braving Blizzard Jonas to make it to our wedding and offering to sleep over if necessary in order to be there! If you are looking for a reasonably priced string quartet of gifted musicians, contact Divina Strings - you'll love them. Thank you so much!
If you are looking to put a fun twist to a classy reception, this group is it! For our cocktail hour, I wanted to add personal touches instead of the usual generic elements, so I went in search of an ensemble that could play classical versions...
of modern songs (Taylor Swift in particular). Not surprisingly, ensembles that play modern covers are hard to come by in Connecticut, so I was thrilled to stumble upon Divina Strings on the Knot! I immediately reached out to Danielle Turano and within hours began working out the details to have the ensemble create a quartet arrangement for "Blank Space." The day of the event, not only did we enjoy hearing our commissioned song, but the quartet surprised us with two additional Taylor Swift songs! It was so much fun to hear our guests react when they'd recognize what the group was playing. Planning a wedding reception can be stressful, but Danielle's professionalism and enthusiasm as well as her outstanding ensemble made this part truly delightful.
Danielle and Divina Strings made my ceremony so special.
Love these guys! They were able to pull together an arrangement of a song they had never done before for our ceremony as well learn a different song not on their rep. They were super easy to work with, really friendly, no complaints! Truly grea...
t...also, they have soooo much good pop stuff on their repertoire!
We hired Divina Strings to play music before and during the wedding ceremony. We wanted traditional Jewish music for the ceremony, but had the idea to play movie scores while people were finding their seats. Danielle at Divina Strings was super...
nice and super accommodating! She found the music we requested and played it beautifully. One of our favorite moments of the wedding - while we were waiting to sign the ketubah, we heard the theme from Jurassic Park. It was awesome.
They also braved the cold for us, playing outside on a day that it snowed.
Thank you so much!
There are not enough praises that can be sung about the music and persona of Divina Strings. The music was enchanting and created an ambiance that made our wedding more special than it already was. The decision to have Divina Strings provide th...
e music during the ceremony and cocktail hour was the one of the best decisions made in planning our wedding. Danielle is professional and personal and truly takes an interest in her clients, making you feel like you are her only client. I would use Divina Strings again and again and again. They are a true testament to the magic of music.
We used a Divina Strings duo for our outdoor wedding in September 2015. The entire process was so organized and Danielle was such a pleasure to work with. She kept me on schedule with selecting songs and the payments. She really helped me to...
organize the ceremony in our first phone call and assisted in selecting songs and provided some great suggestions since we wanted to include some non-traditional songs for certain points during the ceremony and the recessional. I'm so happy that we decided to include a strings duo for our ceremony since many of the things we did were non-traditional. I think that having the strings duo really elevated the ceremony and was a great value for what it brought to our day. I would definitely recommend using Divina Strings if you are considering having strings at your wedding!
Divina Strings did the music for our outdoor rose garden ceremony and they totally made it. We got to choose from a variety of beautiful classics and they could not have been more perfect. I got so emotional as soon as I heard them start playin...
g the song I chose to walk down the aisle to. I'm glad we decided to also have them play during our cocktail hour, so many people told us how much they enjoyed the live music. We decided to choose more modern day music which you would not expect for a string trio and they sounded great! Katy Perry "Firework" and Coldplay "Viva La Vida" were my favorites. Thank you so much to Divina Strings you guys were awesome and made our special day that much better!
I am very happy we chose Divina Strings for our wedding ceremony music. The planning process was very easy and interactive; Danielle helped us choose the perfect music for our special day.
We had an unexpected delay to the start of the cere...
mony and the violinist was very flexible in adjusting to the new schedule, playing additional pieces to fill the gap. It made what could have been an uncomfortable situation more enjoyable for our guests - while adding to the beauty of the waterfront setting.
I would highly recommend Divina Strings to anyone looking to add that special touch to any special occassion or event.
My now husband wouldn't consider ourselves traditional, so for our wedding we wanted everything to be a bit more unique. For our ceremony, we wanted joyful, modern music that our guests would enjoy. Not only does Divina Strings offer a wide v...
ariety of song choices, but they are extremely talented and had our guests complimenting our ceremony music all night. Definitely hire them!!
Yes, amazeballs was the word used by my guests to describe how fantastic Danielle and her ensemble were at my wedding and cocktail hour. I reached out to Danielle because I was interested in a quartet playing at my wedding ceremony but quickly ...
became more interested in having her play at my cocktail hour as well. My husband and I loved that her talents ranged from classical pieces we knew our folks would appreciate but also contemporary and pop music we knew we'd like. Danielle was professional, kind and just wonderful to work with during our planning process. I honestly wasn't worried one bit about her quartet because I knew it would be fantastic..and it was! During the reception our guests told us how refreshing they were to listen to and how surprised they were to hear Coldplay and Duran Duran played by them. I can't recommend them enough!! :-)
We recently had Divina Strings play a violin and cello duo at our wedding in Mystic, CT. Working with Danielle was so easy and fun! She helped us make our music selections and assured us that everything would go smoothly on our wedding day. Dan...

The most amazing part of this strings band is their flexibility and their talent! When I first emailed Danielle about our ceremony, I had a kind of bizarre request, which was to include a strings version of 'Wagon Wheel' in the ceremony. She an...

I hired Divina Strings to play our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour at Wadsworth Mansion. We had the acoustic quartet play modern pop and rock selections and it went our amazingly with our guests. The music for our ceremony was beautiful, and...
during the cocktail hour it remained elegant, but also fun. The quartet looked very professional and sounded even more so.
Coordinating with Danielle was extremely easy, and she made sure we had everything we wanted. They also arranged a song for us, which was a really nice personal touch. I would highly recommend them for any wedding ceremony or cocktail hour.

he ceremony and a mix of songs for the cocktail hour. My guests were so happy to sit and listen to the wonderful strings while they waited for the cermony to start. It was magical coming down the aisle to violins and cellos. I would recommend them for any special occasion especially a wedding!

At Fancy Pants Event Planning, we want to work with only the highest quality vendors, who we know will exceed the expectations of our clients. We are writing a review for Divina Strings because they surpass that bar every time! We find oursel...
ves recommending them constantly. They are extremely talented, offering a wide range of musical selections. Beyond that, they are wonderfully personable and professional. For one of our events this year, Danielle and her team went the extra mile in their presentation (which is always simple and elegant) and dressed in vintage period costume to match the aesthetic that the bride had chosen for her day. It was such perfect touch. We can only say positive things about Divina Strings. They are a delight to work with and always makes us look good. We highly recommend them for your wedding or next event!
I am a musician, so when I hear music, I can't help but listen and analyze. I wanted to have a quartet but was in a very low budget. They worked with me and I was able to get a duo. At first I was thinking a violin and cello only would be "Okay...
". However they sounded incredible! So many guests kept telling me how beautiful the music was. My husband, who usually doesn't care about music as much as I do kept telling me how awesome they sound. Danielle is so helpful and very sweet. It was definitely worth it! If a duo sounded this amazing I wonder how their quartet sounds!
I hired Divina Strings to play during my ceremony: prelude, processional, during the candle, cord and veil ceremonies, and afterwards while people are taking family photos. I wanted a string version of a piano song I liked for our processional ...
and they worked with what I wanted to make a string arrangement of that song. The string arrangement turned out to be very beautiful - weeks prior to the ceremony, they showed me a recording they made to get my final okay.
Danielle was so easy to work with. We talked on the phone and via email. She is very responsive and understands very well the stresses of planning a wedding.
Divina Strings is a very professional and talented group. They know how to improvise so that the music crescendos matched what was happening in the processional, so that there need not be much coordination and work on our part (there is already so many other things we need to be worrying about!).
Finally, their music sounds so wonderful. Everyone at our wedding loved it and thought our ceremony was classy, warm, and moving.
We had Divina Strings perform at our ceremony and cocktail hour as well at Westchester Country Club. They were absolutely amazing! Danielle was wonderful to work with! It was beautiful to be able to walk down the to a string trio playing Canon ...
in D! Truly memorable! Thank you Danielle for everything! I absolutely would recommend Divina Strings!
Divina Strings was very easy to work with. Their song selection was great, and they are so eager to please, not to mention incredibly talented! Our ceremony was made even more special by them. Wouldn't hesitate to hire them again.
Divina Strings was and looked professional (and great in our pictures) and the music was lovely and really added to the event without taking over or getting in the foreground of the event. We would definitely recommend them to anyone!
