The South Louisiana Virtuosi performed at our wedding ceremony in a small courtyard in the French Quarter followed by the reception afterwards. They did a wonderful job and all our...
guests enjoyed the mix of classic oldies and current pop hits during the reception. They were very willing to work with us on a first dance song, and managed to find the arrangement so that it could be played during the reception. In short, we thoroughly enjoyed their music, and highly recommend their services.
Dorela and her group played recently for my daughter's wedding ceremony. It was a large wedding with a full Catholic mass. Dorela worked with the vocalist and organist to make su...
re everything was perfect. Her trio played most of the music and it was absolutely brilliant. She is a fantastic musician, but she is also organized and easy to work with. I highly recommend Dorela and South Louisiana Virtuosi!
The music was beautiful!!! They did a wonderful job . Love the sounds of instrumental music . They work well with me and I had no problems!!!
I had a full Catholic mass for my wedding ceremony in my small hometown church. I was looking for something that would be acceptable in church, but would make my wedding special. ...
A coworker referred me to Dorela for a string trio, and I'm so glad that she did. Dorela was prompt in all of her communication with me, and I usually had a reply by email within 24 hours or less. She was very professional and easy to get along with, and she helped to make the process of choosing ceremony music much less daunting. She provided a list of songs for me, and let me know which ones were more appropriate for a church ceremony. I even chose one song that was not on the list for my bridal processional, and she was happy to play that as well. The week before the wedding I requested a meeting with her, and she went over the final details for the ceremony with me. On the day of the wedding, we were standing in the bridal suite and we heard music over the speakers in the church, and my mom asked if someone had started playing a cd. Turns out, it was the string trio playing already as my guests arrived to the church. They played beautifully for the ceremony, and were dressed professionally with church appropriate attire. They even improvised during the ceremony for parts where I had forgotten to ask for them to play music (i.e. during the lighting of the unity candle). We were all pleased with their services. I would recommend them highly!
I am so pleased with South Louisiana Wedding Music! Dorela is a sweetheart. She responded to every email I sent in just a couple of hours. The songs i requested had significant mea...
nings but none of them were on the song list. I was prepared to change my songs but Dorela informed me that she found sheet music for all my songs! I received so many compliments on how well the sound and how professional they were! I am so happy they were a part of my day!
This is by far the best musicians you could hire. Extremely professional and organized. Dorela was always there when I had questions and made planning so easy by suggesting songs a...
nd helping me. The day of the wedding, they absolutely set the mood into something magical and so romantic. The guests loved it! They also played at the cocktail hour which was so perfect and set the mood. After I went to personally thank them and they were so sweet and kind and just made my night. THE BEST!
I was beyond pleased with South Louisiana Wedding Music. The music was gorgeous and Dorela was super easy to work with. I only told her once what songs I wanted played and she took...
care of the rest. She was completely professional and responded to emails promptly. They arrived on time to the ceremony and played each song at the correct time and on cue. I would absolutely recommend these guys to anyone looking for a string trio for their wedding. I could not have asked for a better experience!
South Louisiana Wedding Music made my ceremony unforgettable. They came dressed to impress, played the perfect music, and worked in-sync with the chaplain to make the ceremony run ...
smoothly and perfectly. Dorela is personable and extremely helpful. They have a huge song list to choose from. Highly recommended.
This group of musicians is on fire. They Rocked at my Coctail hours! Wow For an instance I thought was the radio. The ceremony was beautiful, we choosed some traditional songs for...
the Bridal Party and Trumpeter for the Bride’s walk. Very happy to work with them.
You will not find a more professional and talented group of musicians. I have heard them play in several venues and have been awed each time. Dorela takes her work very seriously...
and does her very best to accomodate all of her customers.
Found SLWM very easy to work with. She kept in touch with me throughout the wedding planning to make sure they were on target with our expectations
Dorela was wonderful, she is totally accomodating and very prompt with answering back both phone calls and emails. I don't think I ever had to wait more than 30 minutes for a respo...
nse to anything I asked of her. We planned our entire wedding long distance (we live in Chicago but got married in Baton Rouge) and she was everything we asked for and more. It was *very* difficult to find vendors that were willing to work within our schedule (99% over the phone and emails) and finally meeting 3 days before our wedding. We were so pleased to have chosen her. Her fees are less than the quotes we got from any other string trio, and I think I called them all! Plus she has the most adorable son ever! We couldn't be happier.lynn 17/7/2010
