Kassidy along with another violinist played at my smaller wedding. I was so happy I hired them, they helped the wedding feel intimate and romantic. I hired them both for my ceremony and cocktail hour and I had several guests comment on how well they played! Kassidy discussed music options with me & helped me come up with options I felt fit my husband and I best. My husband walked down the aisle to a rendition of “Shallow” and I walked down to “You are the Reason”. Everything sounded beautiful and Kassidy was professional and easy to work with. Thank you again!

Kassidy was a joy to work with! She was transparent and fair with her pricing, helpful in guiding direction (including our song choices), and, of course, plays cello beautifully. Live music from a string duo really set the tone for our ceremony and cocktail hour; our guests loved it!

Kassidy was wonderful to work with. One of my only true wishes and dreams for my elopement/micro wedding was to have live music, either a violin or cello. Because of the location of my ceremony (2 hours from the closest large city along the Beartooth Highway) I didn’t think that would be in the cards for us. I found Kassidy/Montana Cello Studio and that dream came true. She was willing to make the far drive and also to do the 1/4 mile hike to our ceremony location which required a water crossing with her cello and equipment. Since we did an elopement we had no wedding planner and I had to plan everything else myself. She was on top of all of the details and guided me through selecting what would work best for the setting of our wedding. Her music was the perfect touch and it absolutely would not have felt as magical as it did without her. I highly encourage including live music if you’re eloping and suggest Kassidy/Montana Cello Studio!

Kassidy playing cello was such an excellent addition to my elopement ceremony in Glacier National Park! She was phenomenal and her level of professionalism and quality exceeded our expectations. My husband and I cannot thank her enough! Not only was her music beautifully played, but she was so easy to communicate and coordinate with. It was such a magical touch for our wedding day.
Sincerely,
Danielle and Jonathan VanOsten

Kassidy was the most elegant addition to our wedding. She was professional, very responsive, incredibly sweet, very talented, and even indulged my personal Taylor Swift requests (have you ever heard Sparks Fly on a cello?). I cannot recommend her enough for your musical needs. Kassidy, we love you! Thank you so much!
