ll of heart. They created such a welcoming and joyful atmosphere for our guests as they mingled and celebrated.
The music was absolutely stunning, with a perfect mix of classics and contemporary selections that felt timeless yet fresh. Many of our guests went out of their way to tell us how much they enjoyed the quartet and how it elevated the entire experience. Duo Con Brio’s talent and professionalism are unmatched, and I cannot recommend them highly enough for any couple looking to bring that extra touch of elegance and beauty to their wedding.

I booked Duo Con Brio for my wedding ceremony 2 years in advance of my wedding. It was not necessary to book them so far in advance, but I /knew/ I wanted a string duo for my cerem...
ony. Hiring Duo Con Brio was one of the best decisions I made in relation to my wedding. Sure, it probably would've been cheaper to just have a DJ play instrumental music for my ceremony, but it wouldn't have been as memorable. I have zero regrets hiring DCB! They played so beautifully, and we received so many compliments from our guests. Everyone LOVED our ceremony music! My brother even said he thought the string duo was a very personal touch; it related to my husband's and I's family because we all played instruments in band. DCB was beyond perfect! I'm so glad I hired them for our ceremony!!! Hearing them play our processional/recessional music (and what little I was able to hear pre-ceremony) was a part of some of my favorite moments of that entire wonderful, moments-filled day! I only regret I was unable to hear most of the pre-ceremony music, because I was hidden away. Fun tip: make sure you have someone record Duo Con Brio playing- you'll want to hear how beautiful their music is for yourself.
Seriously, if you're looking for live instrumental music, hire Duo Con Brio. They are amazing!!!
Duo con Brio was fabulous. They made the process of picking out my ceremony music easy and stress free. They had lots of great contemporary options (I walked down the aisle to Hedw...

Joy to work with them and the ceremony music was perfect!!!!
Corey at Duo Con Brio delivered the perfect music for our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour. He put together a perfect playlist for the prelude and cocktail hour, taking into acco...
unt songs and music styles I requested, and he did not hesitate when I threw unexpected requests his way! (Like a rousing rendition of "Yo Ho! A Pirate's Life for Me" to surprise my groom at cocktail hour.) What's more, Corey offered competitive prices and a fantastic value compared to other musicians in our area. I only wish I'd been able to enjoy more of Duo Con Brio's music during the wedding!
Duo con Brio played all the music for our ceremony as well as cocktail hour. Corey, the owner, was very approachable and easy to work with and he and Jim, the cellist were both so...
talented. We loved the ceremony music. The only criticism I could give is that they had played at our venue before and said that it was small enough that we wouldn't need a mic for music, however at the cocktail hour, even though they moved closer to the party space, no one could really hear the music over the crowd (approx 60 people). They are both such talented musicians and I know they played some lovely pieces during the cocktail hour, just wish we could have heard them better.
I really wanted to use the trio at my wedding, as I have heard great things about them but they were a little out of my price range
I enjoyed the entire process of selecting the songs for our wedding and reception. I had a handful I knew I wanted played, but after that, was at a loss. Duo con Brio made it fun...
and really helped me in selecting the rest of the play list. It's very obvious they love what they do!! They even came out to do a walk through before our big day!! Very talented musicians and good people! The only hiccup was they played the Father-Daughter song during my husband and I's first dance instead of our song. It was a bummer for us, but the audience never knew.
Duo con Brio was awesome. The music was amazing, but that's honestly not what made me love them, rather, they were so willing to work with us to give us exactly what we wanted. My ...
husband spent quite a bit of time talking to them on the phone, they made suggestions, took our requests, and went the extra mile for us. Plus they were so friendly about everything.
The string quartet played beautifully, and I was happy that they were able to play the songs I'd requested. Also, they let me play with them on my clarinet for a song, which was so...

r the ceremony and we could not have picked a more professional or attentive group to work with. They were very helpful and answered emails quickly prior to the wedding which was very nice. We also used their sound engineer, Randy, who we would recommend as well. We had a cd audio recording of our ceremony that night to go home with! What a great experience!
They. Were. Amazing. We had some special songs that we wanted - found the music and aranged it for us to make our ceremony unique and exactly "us". Having a string duo made our we...
dding feel very elegant and the way they played made it very, very fun!!
Absolutely beautiful ceremony music by Duo Con Brio's string quartet. Very easy to work with selecting songs. Their performance made our wedding ceremony perfect.
They sounded wonderful and played everything I asked, I didn't have to go off their lists they had online which was awesome. Definitely recommend them.
Duo Con Brio is great at what they do. I had them play at my wedding and the music was amazing. I'm so happy we went with them. They were also flexible when we had to move our wedd...

Corey did a great job communicating via email and on the phone prior to the event. Arrived on time and provided absolutely amazing music in the genre we most wanted.
If you want strings in your ceremony like I did, go with these guys. They are the best. They are reasonable with prices, and will play special requests. I sent them a ceremony scri...
pt with music cues, and it was flawless and beautiful. I felt like a princess walking down the aisle to gorgeous strings. Live music was so much better than a recording - it's worth the small extra cost!
