An absolutely enchanting addition to our wedding! The string trio captivated us and our guests with their exquisite music throughout our ceremony and cocktail hour.
Their talent and professionalism truly set the tone for our special day. The string trio's repertoire was extensive, that perfectly complemented the atmosphere we wanted to create. Their performance was flawless and created a magical ambiance that everyone was impressed with! We are beyond thankful we found Jaclyn and her team!
Jaclyn Duncan Music was amazing and easy to work with from the beginning. Everyone at our wedding absolutely loved their music! They have a large repertoire of music, a good mix of newer music and classics. It made selecting songs so easy and they have the option to learn new ones as well. I would absolutely recommend them and would book again!
Jacyln Duncan Music was a pleasure to work with planning music for my daughters recent wedding in Central Florida. Prompt in replying, attentive to detail and was able to accommodate an additional instrument requested last minute.
Book them. We went with a cello/violin duo for our outdoor ceremony and it was perfect. They were incredibly responsive and the music sounded beautiful!! Exceeded expectations.
We used Jaclyn Duncan Music for our live ceremony, and it was absolutely beautiful! We used the piano and cello duo and it was perfect. Having them part of the day made the ceremony feel even more special. I definitely recommend using Jaclyn Duncan Music for your wedding!
What a beautiful addition to our ceremony and cocktail hour... the string trio really helped set the ambiance and added to our timeless and elegant vision. So grateful we booked Jaclyn and the musicians- very responsive, kind and seamless to work with. They are so talented and played an array of songs that were enjoyed by all guests! Highly recommend!
Jaclyn and her team provided the ceremony and cocktail hour music at our wedding. We booked a trio ensemble (flute, violin, cello) and all three musicians, including Jaclyn herself, created such a wonderful atmosphere for our wedding. Many guests commented on how the trio added an extra touch of elegance. Working with Jaclyn during the planning process was a breeze and her experience really shines during the planning process. She is very communicative and detail-oriented. It was easy for us to pick the instruments we preferred and narrow down our song selection based on the samples Jaclyn provided. We only wish we had more time to enjoy the music ourselves, which seems to be a common theme with all couples, but hopefully have the chance to do so as wedding guests! We highly recommend her and her team.
Jacllyn Duncan Music LLC did the violin and cello music for my daughters wedding at Holly Hedge last friday. They were incredible. It gave her ceremony and cocktail hour such elegance. Very easy to work with. It was beautiful. They had so many great song choices. Our guests were raving.
I am so pleased with my experience with Jaclyn Duncan Music and her team! From my until email inquiring about their services to the day of my wedding, it was a pleasure to work with them! I had a string duo at my ceremony and had them also play during my cocktail hour. Their website provided wonderful music clips to help me decide which ceremony songs and cocktail hour songs I would like played. They created the perfect ambiance for my special day!
Jaclyn was a pleasure to work with! super easy, very responsive, and worked with us on our ceremony music selections. We had the flute and guitar duo for our November wedding and it was absolutely perfect!
I found Jaclyn Duncan Music after combing through literally hundreds of musicians. I went through their website and listened to the music on their site, watched a few of their sample videos and sent them an email asking about prices for a string duo. Jaclyn Duncan responded to my email promptly with all the information I was looking for. By the time I had contacted Jaclyn I had already narrowed my vendor list for string musicians down to about 3 vendors, not including Jaclyn Duncan Music. What made me choose Jaclyn Duncan Music was how well she communicated and how prompt she was with her responses. While the other 3 vendors took 2 or more days to respond, Jaclyn always responded same day or within just 1 day. No matter how trivial my questions were she was responsive and helpful with her answers.
The day of my wedding my guests were raving non-stop about how beautiful the ceremony music was. The musicians from Jaclyn Duncan music were amazing, they played all the songs I requested, their timing was perfect, they paid attention to the cues that were given by my event coordinator and the officiant. They really made my ceremony absolutely perfect. The only thing I regret is the fact that I personally didn't get to hear much of the music, being the bride has it's drawbacks, i was stuck hiding in the holding room the entire time, I was able to hear the song they played as I walked down the aisle, and the recessional song, both were beautifully done. I would 100% recommend Jaclyn Duncan Music for all your musical needs!
From start to finish, working with Jaclyn Duncan Music was an absolute pleasure. Jaclyn was organized, quick, and responsive, and provided many helpful suggestions to help us choose our right instruments and music selections. We ended up booking a harpist and violinist for our wedding ceremony. Both musicians were very talented and executed our music vision perfectly. We were so happy with how everything turned out and would highly recommend this team!
I am so glad I found Jaclyn to be my wedding day musician, since I love harp, but not many musician team have harp. But she has all kind of musicians I need, and played the most beautiful music for my wedding day on June 15th 2019 at NJ. I absolutely love them. I had a harp, cello, and violin combination. They arrive on time and very professional. I definitely recommend if anyone want to worry free and highlight your event.
Wonderful wedding ambiance thanks to Jaclyn Duncan. She was very responsive and professional in the planning; the musicians were there early and played exactly what we wanted when we wanted. Honestly, the best part was that we didn't really have to think about it all that much when the day came--they were set up and played what we needed and it was great!
Jaclyn and Talia have made our ceremony so romantic & timeless. We found Jaclyn just 7 weeks before the wedding, only because we lost our first ceremony musician. I’m actually very glad that it happened because working with Jaclyn has been nothing but pleasant, efficient and satisfying. Her songs selection/list is absolutely great. They even have video games theme songs which are perfect for us since my husband is a big fan of video games. Our friends noticed the video game theme songs playing during the cocktail hour immediately! We had them playing the Beatles and Hail & Oates for the ceremony and they sounded excellent. We told her that we really like Blackbird by the Beatles. Jaclyn and her team, Talia, learned it and played it at the ceremony as the song for the bridal party entrance and we absolutely love it! On our wedding day, they were being punctual. Ended up working with Jaclyn was one of the best things that happened to our wedding.
Jaclyn runs an amazing operation. She was so easy to work with and her roster of musicians is so incredibly talented. Together they elevated our ceremony to a level we didn't know was even possible. Beautiful music, fantastic company, unparalleled service. Can't recommend enough!!!
Our quartet did an incredible job. Jaclyn was also very accommodating and easy to work with. The whole experience was a pleasure and helped to make our dream ceremony a reality. They also accept payments via Venmo which is incredibly convenient. Would highly recommend!
From our first interactions with Jaclyn to our wedding, she has been extremely helpful in making sure we have the music that we wanted for our wedding. We had a great team on our wedding day and our guest were very impress by the variety of music played from the Beatles to Ed Sheeran and more! Jaclyn and her team are not only talented but also highly professional. We are very glad we had them as a part of our wedding!
Jaclyn & team performed for our wedding ceremony and they were incredible!! They had an amazing selection and sampling of songs that made it so easy to choose our music. We were thrilled with their sound and ability to make our ceremony the most romantic it could possibly be!
Did an absolutely amazing job! Great communication leading up to the event. Both timely and extremely helpful. Would highly recommend!
Jaclyn and her team performed at my church ceremony for my wedding on 8/12/18! They did an amazing job! All our guest commented on how great the church music was! It was truly one of the highlights of our wedding.
I had requested two special Coldplay songs to be played during the ceremony as they are special songs to my husband and I. They played both songs beautifully!!! They entire process of working with Jaclyn and having the music at our ceremony was simply perfect. I would highly recommend Jaclyn for your wedding!!
The music was so beautiful. The musicians were so talented. They planned all my favorites, Bruno Mars marry you, Hallelujah, Clocks by cold play and the theme from legend of Zelda. A week before the wedding I asked them to play a song by Swedish house mafia and they did an amazing job. Really easy to book and their website is really great with all the samples. I didn't even have any questions. I would definitely recommend them to any friend of family. My wedding was on 7.21.18. Loved it!
We used Jaclyn Duncan for our wedding this past June and her and her team did a wonderful job! We used them for the ceremony and the cocktail hour and the music was so beautiful. Her team is very talented and professional. I worked directly with Jaclyn and she was very responsive and extremely helpful!
We used the Jaclyn Duncan Music trio for our wedding in Gainesville, Florida at the Baughman Center. We mostly communicated with them by email. We were also planning a wedding from 2 hours away. Jaclyn was perfect working with as she thought of everything and made this stress free. It was very hard picking out which music to play though, as everything sounded so good on their website! Working with them prior to the wedding was amazing. Our wedding music was perfect for the ceremony. They absolutely played beautifully. Having a live trio really sets a great tone for a wedding ceremony. I highly recommend them!
What a blessing to have Jaclyn and her accompanist play at our ceremony and cocktail reception. They were the perfect complement to this outdoor venue - they helped us choose the music and specific pieces in advance - and what you hear on their website is true to the quality of their performance. Jaclyn, thank you for making our day magical! - JoAnne and Bill
We had a flute, cello and violin trio for our ceremony and cocktail hour and it was so lovely! We had classical music for ceremony and then switched to more upbeat music for cocktails- my friends were most excited about the Disney songs, the Rocky theme and the Game of Thrones theme being played. Interacting with Jaclyn was a breeze and they were very professional. Thank you!!
Jaclyn Duncan Music was everything I hoped it would be! We had a solo cellist play during our ceremony and I felt like a princess walking down the aisle. Thank you for living up to all of our dreams!
We had a fantastic experience with Jaclyn Duncan Music, who I happened to discover through Instagram, of all places. The entire process was easy, seamless and straightforward. Jaclyn helped us with our song selection to match our vibe, and was upfront about what items we needed to consider when determining placement for the musicians during our ceremony. Their performance during our wedding was so beautiful. It truly set the scene and could not have been better!
We had an absolutely fabulous experience with Jaclyn Duncan Music. From the initial phonecall to our wedding day, we were totally confident in our choice and we would highly recommend them for any event. Jaclyn totally heard my vision and worked with me to find a string trio within our budget. The list of music offered is extensive and contains so many wonderful options- we easily had more choices than we could fit, but we had an amazing working list. The trio learned our song along with two others for our ceremony; our song is a very difficult piece of music and we had been turned down by another strings company because of that piece of music. Jaclyn Duncan's trio pulled it off spectacularly and I will never forget being able to walk down the aisle to that special rendition. Thank you for everything, Jaclyn! You made our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour classy, elegant, and fun!
My wedding was on 10/29/2016. Jaclyn was an absolute pleasure to work with! She was very responsive throughout the entire process. We had a number of customized requests and she was very willing to work with us to make our music selection just how we wanted it! We got many compliments on the way Jaclyn played at the wedding! We selected a cello/piano duo and could not have been happier. I would love to work with Jaclyn again!
Working with Jaclyn for our wedding was amazing. She was so friendly and made sure she had all the details down that we wanted to make everything magical. We had a cellist and violinist play during our ceremony and cocktail party and they were amazing. So easy to work with Jaclyn and well worth it!
Our wedding was September 3, 2016. It was such a pleasure working with Jaclyn and her team! They are absolutely fantastic! Our guests enjoyed a string quartet for our ceremony and cocktail hour.
From the very beginning, Jaclyn was so eager to make our day fantastic. From music selections, to any questions I had. She was on top of everything! We also had John Herbert play ukulele and piano along side her and her team! She coordinated with him and they worked out an awesome ensemble for our wedding day! Absolute awesome overall experience!
Jaclyn Duncan was a great choice for our wedding. She was very responsive while we were planning and extremely professional. Even though she hadn't played Danse Macabre at a wedding ceremony in a cemetery before she met us, she wasn't the least bit judgmental and fully supported playing her role in making our vision for our ceremony a reality. Our only regret was that we didn't have an opportunity to meet her in person as we were swept away to our reception after our ceremony. We can't recommend Jaclyn enough!
It look us a while to find ceremony musicians and we are so happy we finally found Jaclyn Duncan for our violin and cello duet. Jaclyn was easy to work with and responsive. Her website with music options made planning our ceremony music easy, and we were able to find the exact music we were looking for. Jaclyn was flexible and her musicians versatile, and we were able to choose a recessional song that the musicians had to learn shortly before the wedding. Despite Hurricane Matthew occurring just before our wedding, there were no disruptions and Jaclyn's musicians came prepared and executed our ceremony perfectly. We would absolutely recommend Jaclyn Duncan Music for other couples.
My husband and I hired a string quartet from Jaclyn Duncan Music to play during our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour last month and we couldn't have been happier with them! The live music really added a special touch to our wedding that didn’t go unnoticed. Our guests are still talking about how much they loved the Disney and TV/Movie theme songs that were played throughout cocktail hour! It was a pleasure working with Jaclyn, via email, prior to our wedding; she was so friendly and responded quickly to any questions we had. She and her team are so professional and very talented. We highly recommend Jaclyn Duncan Music for anyone looking to add live music to their event, you definitely won’t be disappointed!
We booked a violinist and cellist duo for our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour. Jaclyn is so easy to work with, thorough, responsive and always made us feel comfortable with any questions or concerns. On the day, the musicians did an amazing job! The live music really added a special touch to our wedding. Would highly recommend!
Jaclyn and her staff were wonderful! We had a violin and cello play for our wedding ceremony and the music set the perfect mood for our event. They musicians were so professional and incredibly sweet. In correspondence with Jaclyn, we always felt comfortable and she made it so easy to communicate what we wanted. Totally worth the money!
My husband and I could not be more pleased with our experience working with Jaclyn Duncan Music. When we were first looking for a string ensemble to provide music at our wedding ceremony, we noticed the great reviews Jaclyn Duncan Music had received, the beautiful samples of music on their website, and their extensive repertoire. It was already an easy choice, but we were confident we were making the right decision as soon as we were in communication with Jaclyn. From the moment we first contacted her, up until our wedding many months later, Jaclyn was always responsive, flexible, and thorough. My husband and I had some particular requests for songs we were interested in having played at our ceremony, and Jaclyn was very accommodating to our requests. With one song, she wasn’t sure if they had the music for it, but took the time to look through all of their sheet music to find it so we wouldn’t have to pay an additional cost. For another song, we had a particular arrangement in mind that differed from the one they were used to playing, and the musicians took the time to learn the arrangement we requested. On our wedding day, my husband and I had no reason at all to stress about the ceremony music since Jaclyn had been so organized and in regular contact with us throughout our planning. The music at our ceremony was gorgeous – we used a string trio and they played beautifully. They clearly had ample prelude music prepared which was appreciated, especially as our ceremony unexpectedly had to begin late due to a delayed shuttle bus. Our ceremony was so meaningful to us, and a large part of that was due to the beautiful music provided by Jaclyn Duncan Music. We give them our highest recommendation.
My husband and I were recently married on September 5, 2015. We found Jaclyn online and decided to contact her after reading all of her wonderful reviews and we could not be happier that we did -she is positively the easiest person to work with! The thing I think I love most about her is her responsiveness. No matter how many questions I had, she would respond to my emails quickly and thoroughly. She was excited to give her opinion when asked and to give me advice on certain song selection I inquired about.
We booked a classical trio through her for our ceremony, which was from 11:30am till noon. The trio arrived around 10:30 am for set up and was ready to start playing by the time people started arriving around 11am. We wanted classical music played during our ceremony and asked for a specific piece to be played as our recessional song. The trio had never performed it before but were eager to learn and they did a phenomenal job!
We received wonderful feedback and complements from our guests regarding the music and they loved our quirky, personal touch that we chose as the recessional song! I am so very glad that we chose Jaclyn and would highly recommend her to everyone!!! These people are professional, prompt, and so very nice! What more can you ask for!
We booked Jaclyn and Trillogie Trio at the last minute for our ceremony music and cocktail hour. Everything turned out wonderful. Affordable for the quality they provide...highly recommend!!
Jaclyn Duncan Music added so much to our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour! They were so flexible and learned three new songs for our ceremony- Can You Feel the Love Tonight, The Sound of Music Wedding March, and the Superman Theme Song! These songs were very important to us, and it was key to have them played at our wedding. The trio played the songs perfectly on flute, violin and cello, and Jaclyn even brought her piano so that I could get the organ sound for the Sound of Music Wedding March. The live music really set such an incredible mood, and all of our guests loved it! We extended to a cocktail hour and a half, so the trio stayed for the extra half hour for a small fee. The beautiful live music was well worth the price we paid.
Prior to signing a contract we were happy that we were able to attend the group's practice session so that we could hear them play live. This made us very confident about our choice. Also, the vast repertoire on their website helped us get a good idea of the style and quality of music they play. Whenever I emailed or called Jaclyn with a question she responded ASAP. This was very crucial when we had to reschedule our wedding date after we had already signed our contract. Jaclyn’s speedy communications helped us pick a new date that worked with her and all of our other vendors. My husband and I, and our families all highly recommend Jaclyn Duncan Music!
I hadn't even met Jaclyn Duncan, or anyone from Trillogie Trio, prior to our ceremony on August 15, 2014. I knew from reviews that they were talented, and from emails and phone conversations that Jaclyn was professional, accommodating, and quite funny. However, I could not have expected the amazing job that they did at our wedding! Our ceremony, and song choices, were interfaith and somewhat unconventional. Trillogie Trio played beautifully and timed every note exactly to make the entrance and departure for guests and bridal party spectacular! It is unfortunate that we were only able to speak with Jaclyn for a few short minutes on that day because she and her fellow musicians were a huge part of making it so very special! They even posted pictures of the ceremony on their Facebook page. Just one example of the extreme care that they take of their clients.
I wanted to have live classical musicians for my wedding, which was also a full Catholic mass. I knew it may be challenging to find people that were knowledgeable in the traditional music, as I did not want an organ to lead the wedding ceremony. I was fortunate enough to find Jaclyn on the internet and knew after listening to the clips on her website that it was exactly what I was looking for. Contacting her was very easy and she always responded quickly to any questions I had, both on the phone and by email. We were also able to go listen to the group (we went with flute/violin/cello trio) perform and we were in awe of their range of music that they perform that we had to extend them to play during our cocktail hour! She and her team where able to play a mix of classical music with Catholic mass music and our guests at the ceremony were so amazed and touched by their beautiful music. It was exactly what I wanted on the day of the wedding to make the day special. And it was such a treat for us and the guests to have them play a range of music from rock, pop, musicals, movies, and so much more. We continue to hear accolades about their music and how it added such a wonderfully special element to our day. We cannot say enough amazing things about them and highly recommend them to anyone thinking of using live musicians for their occasion.
Jaclyn organized the music for our wedding ceremony and her creativity and efforts made it better than we had imagined. I was living about four hours from the location of our wedding so I didn’t meet Jaclyn until after the ceremony. This didn’t matter at all because she was highly responsive and worked very diligently on planning our event. She found and contracted with musicians to play the instruments that we requested and planned an hour of music that left our guests asking how we were able to plan something so perfect from so far away.
Jaclyn quickly located an available musician to play the instrument that we requested (mandolin) to be played along with her beautiful flute. She worked with me via email to specifically define the music for the ceremony. Jaclyn shared her knowledge of music with us and she suggested songs for different parts of the ceremony based on the “mood” that we described via email. I imagine that couldn’t have been easy but she nailed it! After practicing with the mandolin player, she let me know that perhaps an upright bass would round out the sound. In the end, she was absolutely right about this and we were so glad that she found an upright bass player to join their combo. The three musicians made such beautiful music on the beach for us on September 17, 2011. In the end it was as she described but also professional, elegant, entertaining and they looked great in pictures.
It was an absolute pleasure to work with Jaclyn and my husband and I really appreciate her willingness to help us to define the sound of our ceremony. Truthfully, Jaclyn did most of the work for us. She sent us song suggestions and links to songs for us to consider. She also arranged for a microphone and amplification for our ceremony and when the venue failed to deliver power, she worked diligently before the ceremony to set it up. I didn’t even know that there was a problem until after the ceremony because it was perfect by the time I walked down the aisle. I recommend Jaclyn without reservation as an artist and especially as a kind, responsive, experienced and well-connected musician who will make your event beautiful.
