We couldn’t have been happier with Elope Music! They were absolutely incredible on our wedding day and created such an elegant, beautiful atmosphere. Anton was wonderful to work with from start to finish. He was responsive, organized, and made the entire planning process so easy. The musicians were exceptionally talented, and we received so many compliments from our guests. We would recommend them to anyone looking for outstanding live music for their wedding or event!

them. They made our ceremony and cocktail hour so beautiful. Their music selection is extensive and varies from classical to modern covers. When I asked them to play very specific songs that I always dreamed of for the wedding processional and recessional , it wasn’t a problem at all for them to deliver. I also feel that they are affordable and worth every penny spent. Anton, the main contact for me to discuss wedding-related coordination was always kind and responsive. Overall, wonderful company and experience!

the nicest guys to work with and were very communicative and flexible! If you're planning a wedding and would are looking for music, I urge you to strongly considering hiring Anton's group of musicians to play live as an alternative option to a DJ. It was much more romantic and impressive to have the music played live than to have someone playing Top 40 from some speakers.

The day of the wedding, Anton, the violinist, and Madoka, the pianist, were on time, pleasant, and delivered perfection. They are both very kind and sincerely wanted the best for our event. This was a destination wedding, so my daughter and I made most of the arrangements relying entirely on websites, video demos and reviews. We made the BEST choice in hiring Elope Music! I can't thank them enough!
