I recently had the pleasure of having the Rondo String Quartet play at my wedding, and they were absolutely spectacular! From the moment I first reached out to them, they were incredibly professional and a joy to work with. They were actually the first vendor I hired, and they set the bar incredibly high.
Their performance was nothing short of magical. As I walked down the aisle, I felt like I was stepping into an episode of Bridgerton, surrounded by the enchanting sounds of their string quartet. They played marvelously, creating a beautiful and elegant atmosphere that all our guests raved about.
One of the standout features of Rondo String Quartet is their extensive repertoire of musical selections. They have an endless array of pieces to choose from, catering to every taste and preference. This versatility ensured that every moment of our wedding was perfectly underscored by the ideal musical accompaniment.
They truly were the highlight of our wedding. Their music added an extra layer of sophistication and emotion to our special day, and we couldn't have been happier with their performance. I highly recommend Rondo String Quartet to anyone looking to add a touch of elegance and enchantment to their event. They are simply AMAZING!
Thank you, Rondo String Quartet, for making our wedding day unforgettable!

Rondo was amazing. We hired them to play during our ceremony and reception, and everyone thought they were great. I've been told by guests that they were enjoying trying to guess what song they were playing all night and it turned into a fun game. We got married at Troy Historic Village, and they fit the venue so well and they sounded so beautiful. We are so happy we decided to spring for live music, and they truly made the night magical.

Rondo to the rescue! We had several mishaps on our wedding day and Rondo was always there to help. We began our day with our shuttle service being more than an hour late and Rondo happily entertained our guests for that time period. I am still getting comments about how much our guests enjoyed listening to the quartet during that time. So many other challenges happened during our day that we did not even know about until later. The quartet seamlessly helped along the way. Rondo String Quartet is flexible, helpful, kind, professional, and amazing musicians and people. We could not have gotten through our day without them. We are so happy we hired Rondo and hope we are able to hire them again sometime. It makes us happy to know there are such good people out there in the world.

They played beautifully but were very rude on the actual wedding day. Our shuttle service was delayed, pushing us back about 30 minutes for the ceremony and subsequently, cocktail hour and reception. We hired them to play ceremony and cocktail hour and due to the delay, they ended prior to cocktail hour ending (which I completely understand) the issue resulted from them requesting final payment day of. Our ceremony location was a few blocks away from our reception location so while the bridal party was taking after ceremony photos, the quartet was playing at the secondary location. We were delayed in getting back to the reception, due to the shuttle service which was out of our control and that was also where all of our belongings were. The lead musician came back to our ceremony location and demanded payment on site, immediately. (Again, our cash and check book were back at the reception site). She was extremely rude to the bridal party/mother of the bride. We ended up having to ask multiple family members to pool cash in order to pay her, as she refused to allow us to ride back to the venue without paying. We would have preferred if she had requested payment before the day, had waited for us to come back to the reception site, or had alternative payment methods, since she only accepted cash or check.
I want to make sure to note that the music was beautiful and they had plenty of options for music choices but her overall aggressive/rude demeanor and lack of flexibility for circumstances that were outside of our control would make me not want to hire them again.

We take our reviews seriously and are saddened that our frustrations from the evening impa...
cted the final interaction. Our contract states that the balance, due in cash, is to be paid prior to the performance on the date of engagement. While we understand wedding days can be chaotic, paying your vendors, who depend on prompt payment for their livelihood, should be a priority to avoid the potential of uncomfortable situations like the one we all experienced. We wish you the very best as you begin your married life.

My husband and I wanted something that would really help set our wedding apart. We found that with Rondo String Quartet. They provided us a robust selection of songs from which to choose, and their work was unparalleled. So many of our guests, both at the wedding and after, raved about how amazing they sounded and the uniqueness that their presence provided. We are so incredibly happy to have worked with Rondo!

Rondo String Quartet’s performance was exactly what I had dreamed of. They worked with me to pick the music that we wanted for our wedding ceremony and played flawlessly even with the colder than usual weather. They arrived on time and set up in the background with no assistance needed from me. Their response time is very quick and I had no issues. I would absolutely recommend them for your special event.

I highly recommend the Rondo String Quartet for anyone looking for a beautiful and memorable musical experience for their wedding ceremony and cocktail hour. The quartet's performance as I walked down the aisle truly elevated the traditional wedding ceremony songs and made them even more meaningful. It was a special moment that I will always cherish. Kim and the quartet also did a fantastic job during our cocktail hour, playing current songs that everyone recognized and could sing along to while enjoying cocktails and hors d'oeuvres. Kim was very responsive and helpful when it came to providing our desired song list and timeline. We were also impressed by the large number and variety of genres that the quartet could play. Overall, the Rondo String Quartet added an extra touch of elegance and beauty to our wedding day, and we couldn't be happier with their performance. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

Rondo did a phenomenal job playing for our Halloween party. They creeped us out with scary Halloween music, made us laugh with songs like Scooby Doo, and entertained us with songs like Sympathy for the Devil, Bury a Friend, and Superstition. There is nothing like live music to bring a festive mood to a party! Thank-you to Rondo for being the highlight of the evening!

The rondo string quartet played for our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour at the Townsend hotel on 8/6/22. And we are still receiving compliments on their behalf for their performances!! From beginning to end they were perfect and so easy to work with. We coordinated with Lisa, filled out a questionnaire -gave a list of specific songs for ceremony and general genre for cocktail hour. They include a wonderful variety of songs they play. We didn’t really communicate besides that part so I wasn’t sure if or when they knew to play with our ceremony being a non traditional, but obviously they are professionals and knew exactly when to play!! It was beyond perfect. Thank you so much again

We hired the quartet to play our ceremony and cocktail hour and it was the everything we could have imagined and more. The music was beautiful and it really set the stage for an elegant evening for all of our guests. The group has such a robust repertoire list, but each song is just as lovely as the next. You can't go wrong with any of their selections. Our guests complimented the music all evening, saying that our wedding gave off "Bridgerton" vibes in the very best way! Thank you, Rondo String Quartet! You are simply the best.

I hired the Rondo String Quartet for my daughter's wedding ceremony and cocktail hour(s), via a recommendation from Mike Skaff. Throughout the entire planning process they were always on top of everything, and answered any questions I had very quickly. For a very small fee to purchase music that wasn't part of their normal repertoire, they added (and practiced) a song my daughter wanted for her procession. We received numerous complements on their music during the wedding, with many people asking where we found them. I couldn't have been more pleased with EVERYTHING; this group is a Quartet I highly recommend.

Rondo was able to set a different mood for each of our children's weddings. Our son asked for quite a bit of classic rock, and our daughter wanted some more current music and big band style. Rondo was flawless at each wedding! Our friends and family were enamored with the quartet. I highly recommend Rondo for any event!

I can’t believe how incredible this group is! They were so kind and helpful all the way through two date changes due to Covid. They made things so easy to book them and were extremely helpful in choosing music. We wanted some non-standard music and chose Concerning Hobbits for our bridesmaids, Sweet Child of Mine for my now wife, and Crazy Little Thing Called Love for when we walked out. For our cocktail hour, we asked them to play popular music and classic rock. Rondo’s musicians are fantastic! All of our guests could not stop giving us compliments about them. Thank-you Rondo!

Ever since I was a little girl, the one dream I had for my future wedding was to have a string quartet play during my ceremony. The Rondo String Quartet made that dream come true! As a piano and voice teacher myself, it was important to me that our string quartet was well rehearsed and showcased their musicality through their playing. I couldn’t have made a better choice! They were able to adapt to any musical genre and play each one well. They made my ceremony perfect! :)

With over 700 songs from which to choose, the Rondo Quartet will help you create the perfect mood for your wedding. We chose a 1960s light-hearted and fun theme, not only for our guests to enjoy, but also because we're in the midst of a pandemic and wanted our 10 guests to feel joyful with us. The old saying that people won't remember what you did or what you said but they will always remember how you made them feel is so true! The Rondo String Quartet's music will always be remembered for the joyous mood they created for us on our special day. Thank you so much!
