Steven makes it so easy! From the first contact, Steven was professional, transparent, and enthusiastic. I loved working with him. He is a really talented musician and we loved hearing him play and our guests said it made our reception so special.

Rob played for our ceremony and cocktail hour. It was easy together eat everything set up through Steven Vance. I should say as the bride, we get to hear very little of the music played, but he played the songs we requested. As a heads up, since there are so many things to remember, especially the week of, be sure someone knows where they should set up. I would also say, have someone pay prior to them starting so they’re sure they get their payment & don’t have to ask once they’re done. We loved having Ron play for us & would love to hear more!

We had seen Steven Vance at a wedding expo and felt this would be a great addition to our wedding. Originally, Steven was supposed to be our violinist but our wedding date fell on a time he was not available. Lina was the person we had at our day. She is amazing! We had a ton of guest gush over how well great she was. I believe if we did have someone else, the day would not have been as good. If we ever need a violinist again, I know right where I am going....to Lina at Steven Vance Entertainment. Recommend this company and staff a lot!

Steven Vance provided multiple services for our wedding including ceremony and cocktail hour musicians, the DJ and the photo booth. They were very easy to work with and responsive to our questions or requests. The Electric Violin certainly added a unique and fun twist. It was also very helpful to have all of this bundled with one company. Our DJ Mike was great and had everyone on the dance floor all night!

Steve Vance Entertainment was wonderful to work with. The professionalism, quality, and communication was all top notch. Joyce Wohlgemuth was my wedding day violinist and she was beyond amazing. She was so easy to work with and talk to. She was extremely helpful, answered immediately and played all the songs I wanted. I couldn’t be happier with her service. She truly made my day special and all of my guests were absolutely thrilled and amazed by her ability! Thank you Joyce 💕

If you want a violinist for any part of your wedding, I highly recommend them. Steven was absolutely amazing, and all of our guests could not stop talking about him. I am sad that we only booked him for our cocktail hour. He was so accommodating and waited to play our top picks until we were around.

Working with Steven Vance to hire our violinist was such a smooth process! Our violinist, Jane, was amazing to work with! She gave us great suggestions for our ceremony music and helped greatly with the planning process in terms of music selections. Live music really added to our ceremony!

Nate’s violin performance made our reception and cocktail hour so special. It added the perfect touch to elevate the evening and make it that much more memorable. He was so attentive to our preferences and did a great job keeping our guests entertained.

We had Charles May of Steven Vance Entertainment on the electric violin during our ceremony and cocktail hour and the performances truly elevated our day! It was so easy to work with Charles and the musical selections evoked the perfect blend of emotion during the ceremony and FUN during cocktail hour. I would highly recommend Steve Vance Entertainment to any couple seeking live entertainment that will leave a lasting impression on their wedding day.

Steven & his team are just THE BEST! They were extremely responsive, & made sure that what I had envisioned for our wedding day came true! I can't say enough amazing things about the incredibly talented quintet that we had. From our ceremony to cocktail hour, they just brought tears to my eyes because it was so beautiful. I will never forget taking a moment to stand by them at my cocktail hour to just listen to them play. THANK YOU will never be enough! If you're searching for an amazing group - look no further!!!!

We hired a string duo for our outdoor wedding ceremony and the music was absolutely beautiful! We would do it over and over again, 100%. Our guests were also so pleased. They were on cue with all of the songs that we chose and as a bride, it was beautiful to have the live music to walk down the aisle to. Highly recommend working with Steven Vance!

John performed on the piano at our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour and did a lovely job. He was very accommodating by bringing his own keyboard to the ceremony since the cocktail hour piano was not able to be moved at our venue. He also mastered the music we requested and even provided us with a demo of the song my wife walked down the aisle to. He was very pleasant to work with and we are thankful to have had him on our wedding day.

Easily the most talked about aspect of our wedding. We hired Steven to play Electric Violin for our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour and he delivered! Our guests just loved him and are still talking about him being one of the highlights of our wedding! 10/10 recommend.

Michelle L

10/26/2022

If you’re on the fence about getting a violinist, do it! I booked Regina through Steven Vance and she was great! I was so worried with my chaotic lineup and last minute changes the song choices wouldn’t flow but she assured me everything would be perfect- and it was! There’s something about a violinist that takes your ceremony from average to classy AF. So glad I decided to go with this company. They are top notch!

Michelle A

10/20/2022

I mean it with total sincerity when I say Steven Vance is the absolute best! As I booked other vendors for my wedding, they were all thrilled to hear they’d be working with Steve, who they referred to as “a true professional.” The booking and planning process was smooth and organized, and the day of our wedding couldn’t have gone better. We enjoyed violin during our ceremony, electric violin during cocktail hour, strolling dinner service, and used Anthony (part of Steven Vance’s team) as our DJ. Our guests were so thrilled with the excellent music and the dance floor was 100% packed all night long. You truly don’t need to look any further if you’re considering live music and/or a DJ for your special day.

Steve was so professional and personable with preparations and his performance at our wedding. He played for our ceremony and cocktail hour. Guest enjoyed the music and we appreciated his effort in learning a song that was important to my husband and I to have a part of our ceremony.

Craig V

Steven and his team were everything we wanted and needed: flexible, responsive, professional, reasonably priced and talented. Despite our unconventional ceremony, Steven’s string trio knew exactly what to play and when during our ceremony, and they even stuck around afterwards and played an extra song for us. They were, in a word, perfect.

Olivia T

6/17/2022

We met Steve at a wedding vendor showcase as he was playing an electric violin, and his music immediately had us entertained. Joey Molinaro was assigned to us for our wedding day. People still talk about his performance during the ceremony and we’ve heard nothing but positive feedback! We would highly recommend.

Anita K

Steve was simply amazing. Everyone at the event loved Steve’s performance. Classy & upscale were the two words used by many of our guest after viewing Steve’s music. Definitely hire Steve for your special day.

Steven Vance was easy to work with. They contract DJs and, Mike Russell, our DJ was great! We had a very detailed discussion with him about our expectations for the day and he made helpful recommendations on how to make things flow smoothly! We were also able to find a bagpiper to play out our wedding through Stephen Vance which was a superb option to have!

Samantha F

11/10/2021

Ron was the best violinist! He did prelude music for our ceremony, processional, recessional, and cocktail hour. He arrived early to set up and scope out just the right spot to be heard by everyone. He had such passion and movement when he played. Ron and his wife, who helped coordinate and gather music details, were both super great and easy to work with. I definitely recommend!

Marisa S

I cannot recommend Steven Vance more for your wedding ceremony. Having an electric violin added a perfect special touch to our day. Steven is very professional and talented. 10/10

Danielle D

My husband and I chose the electric violin for the entertainment as guests were arriving to the ceremony as well as providing the precessional, ceremony music, and recessional. Everything sounded beautiful and created a very elegant and romantic environment! Our violinist was GiGi and we were very pleased with her! She was very polite and professional when helping set up the timeline and selecting the music! Overall, a great experience with a great outcome! Would absolutely recommend!

Steven Vance Entertainment was impeccable in securing our ceremony violin and violist as well as our cantor. Even when we contacted them within 6-8 weeks prior to the wedding, they were very quick to get back to us, great consistent communicators, easy to coordinate with, and provided exceptional talent that made our special day perfect. We highly recommend them!

Booked an extremely talented acoustic guitar duo through Steven Vance and was very pleased with the ease of communication and booking, and overall professionalism of the company. They were one of the only vendors to follow up with me after the wedding to make sure everything went okay. Musicians were very flexible in learning songs for the day and were very easy to work with.

Cama String Quartet played for my son's outdoor wedding ceremony. They were utter perfection and made the day even more special. The bride is from India and had some special song requests. The Quartet were so accommodating and truly impressed all in attendance as well as family/friends that were live streaming from overseas. We highly recommend Cama String Quartet and would most definitely use them again.

response 09/23/2021

It does not get much better than "utter perfection". We do our best to honor requests and...

now we have some Bollywood favorites in our library. Will share this with Charles and the others in the group.

We had our wedding a few weeks ago and let me tell you that our guests RAVED about our ceremony live musicians. Charles and John were so amazing. The music was perfect and they flowed so well with the timing. They reached out to me a month before the wedding and were very professional about helping me choose what songs would fit with the wedding. So happy we had them at our wedding!

Juan was amazing! He communicated with us and helped us to pick more contemporary songs that would work well for the solo violin we booked. Our guests loved the acoustics of the violin in the smaller church we used and it helped to make our day that much better. I would definitely recommend!

Sharalyn L

10/06/2020

I don't know where to even start with Steve, he was absolutely incredible! Leading up to the wedding he was so responsive and easy to work with. He made sure every detail was handled and that everything was ready to go for the big day. He performed violin at the ceremony and it was beautiful. He even learned a new song for us in less than a week. For our cocktail hour he did a mix of pop violin songs as well as DJ songs and then proceeded to DJ our reception. I still have guests contacting me to tell me how blown away they were with how talented Steve was. He incorporated all of our specific requests perfectly into the night and made sure everyone had a blast. I can't recommend Steven Vance enough!

Having a violin and piano at our ceremony was a dream for me. It really made for a beautiful addition to the ceremony, and I could not have been happier with our booking. If you're on the fence, just do it. You will not be sorry!

Shalyn C

10/28/2019

For our ceremony, we hired a violinist through Steven Vance. This was one of the best decisions we made for our union! Juan in every way helped capture our ceremony better than I even envisioned. He worked with me to create a piece that was very important to me for the Mother's Procession and worked with me to ensure transition between pieces would create a beautiful ceremony as a whole. I continue to receive so many compliments on how beautiful our ceremony was and how beautiful the music was. My only complaint is I as the bride, didnt get to experience what our guests did. I highly recommend!

The electric Violin was an elegant and classy addition to our cocktail hour. Perfect and lovely!!

Missy W

9/26/2019

Our jazz trio that we had for our ceremony and cocktail hour was so wonderful! It consisted of sax (who played flute for ceremony), keys, and bass and they were spot on with the vibe we wanted for music. One of the musicians, Eric, reached out to me before the ceremony to touch base about what music we wanted, and he was very helpful in providing suggestions for a few things we hadn’t decided on. In addition to great communication, they were fantastic jazz musicians! Live music added such a nice touch to our day and we were so happy with the choice to have them play.

Emily D

9/23/2019

We did the package with a violinist for our ceremony and cocktail hour and a DJ for 5 hours for our reception. Ron Molinaro our Violinist was so talented, professional, and knows how to work a crowd! He moved around our cocktail hour and took requests from guests! DJ Mike Greca was wonderful! He was professional, kept the dance floor full all night, and entertained requests from guests all night. We couldn’t have asked for two better people to make our wedding fun, memorable, and special for us and our guests!

Chelsea P

8/21/2019

Steven is the best of the best! He is extremely professional, and has the experience in his career that made me feel like I had nothing to worry about! His music is beautiful, and everyone after was complimenting us on our violinist! We would recommend him to anyone!

Worked with Steve Vance to arrange acoustic violin and guitar for our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour. Rachel , the group leader, was very easy to work with and worked through all the details prior to our event. It was incredibly hot and muggy, but both musicians played beautifully and with smiles. We had many compliments on their playing and we would definitely recommend!!

Steven Vance Electric Violin only sent the very best. Tiffany is wonderful. She helped us plan the music selections with ease. Everyone raved about how wonderful she was and the selections she chose for our event. We were looking for a specific fun music piece to exit the ceremony with, she even took the time to track it down for us. Thank you so much Tiffany!

The company was easy to communicate with and very responsive. We had Fred as our solo cellist, and he was great! We received a lot of complements as to how nice a touch the cello was at the ceremony. We did some more modern songs for our processional and recessional and they sounded great! Thank you, Fred and Steven Vance!

I hired a trio for my ceremony at Heinz Chapel. They were absolutely amazing! With minimal notice they were able to play all of my selections for my ceremony flawlessly :) Definitely worth the extra $$ if you do not like the traditional organ playing.

We had our wedding ceremony and reception at Bella Sera in Canonsburg. Under the Steve Vance company, we used Joyce as our violinist. She played beautifully and we received multiple compliments throughout the night. Would definitely recommend to others.

My husband and I booked Steven Vance for our ceremony and cocktail hour music. We had violinist Sandro Leal-Santiesteban and cellist Elisa Kohanski. They were absolutely wonderful and did such an amazing job. This company was great to work with and I would highly recommend booking your event music with Steven Vance!

Maria P

11/02/2018

I have received nothing but rave reviews about the pop rock violin music from my wedding guests! They all wanted to know where I found him and who he was. Nate Goodrich was wonderful to work with as a violinist/DJ. Most guests also commented that they'd never heard anything like it before at a wedding. One major bonus with the pop rock violin is that you can play some songs that you love, that aren't necessarily "wedding" songs; for instance, we had some Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, and The Doors songs during cocktail hour/dinner on pop rock violin, and people loved it! Also, I finally got hear Bittersweet Symphony on strings LIVE, so that was pretty awesome.

Beth R

10/16/2018

I procrastinated with getting a musician for our wedding ceremony in October and by July realized most musicians were booked, until I found Steven Vance. He was quick to respond to my request and had a violinist (Elizabeth) arranged for our ceremony and cocktail hour within two days. Elizabeth played the acoustic violin at our ceremony and the electric violin at our cocktail hour and she was a HIT. My guests still have not stopped raving about how amazing she was! This is a must book!

Samantha S

9/27/2018

We had violinist Joyce W. from the Steve Vance Group play at the cocktail hour for our wedding and our guest have not stopped raving about it! She was so easy to work with, and even let us pick the entire playlist from her vast list of songs. It was such a special touch for our wedding, and we will definitely be recommending Steve Vance Electric Violin & Strings Group to other couples we know who are getting married!

Beth H

Our violinist Joyce was absolutely wonderful! She played beautifully and had such a wide span of music to select from! I would recommend any couple looking for a violinist to choose Steven Vance!

We hired Younga as our cellist for our ceremony. We had a pretty simple, short and sweet ceremony so knew we wanted to add something a little different and elegant to the mix to jazz it up. Younga was able to play both the traditional songs we had requested but also all of the modern songs we requested that fit perfectly with the laid back, easy going nature of our ceremony. All of our guests complimented what a fantastic job she did. I would highly recommend Steven Vance - particularly Younga - for your ceremony music needs.

I was having a hard time finding a string quartet or trio for my daughter’s wedding in the Deep Creek area. I called Steven Vance and he was extremely courteous and helpful. Although he was taking a vacation during the weekend that I needed someone, he recommended one of his solo electric violinists. My daughter had a special request to walk down the isle to the orchestra version of Guns and Roses’ Sweet Child O’ Mine. Joyce, who was assigned as our violinist, was amazing to work with. She purchased the sheet music and backtrack for the song and played it absolutely beautifully at the wedding. It literally brought tears to my eyes. She provided a list othat included almost any song you can think of to play during the prelude, throughout the wedding and for the processional. She was adorable- very professional and polite and several of our guests commented how much they enjoyed her music! Thank you Steven Vance for making my daughter’s wedding special and unique!

My only complaint about using Steven Vance's company is that, as the bride, I didnt get to hear everything she played. Tiffany was our violinist and she was truly incredible. People are still talking about her a month later and our venue asked for her information to give to future brides. Worth every penny!!!

Tiffany is she best. She brings style and grace with her music. I will send this along to ...

her. Hope we cross paths again.

Joey Molinaro was our violinist for the event. He was awesome!! We had so many compliments from the guests. Before the event, he gave us a list of songs that helped us choose what we wanted him to play. During the event, he was very professional and incredibly talented. Would definitely recommend Joey!!
