p" for the reception. The classical during the service brought tears to my eyes - simply beautiful. The reception was very Bridgerton like and everyone loved it. I would use them again and again and will recommend them to anyone in search of a string quartet. Thank you String Poets!
The String Poets were very flexible. We were able to choose our own music and coordinate specific cues with the musician. At times, communication and coordination was a little comp...
licated with two different point persons involved and slow response times. However, the musician was prepared, professional, and the music was excellent.

I'm so happy with our decision to go with the string quartet for our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour. Radhi was very organized and responsive to emails leading up to the wedding...
. Their repertoire is huge and has lots of variety (traditional options as well as modern) - and they immediately agreed to play Can You Feel The Love Tonight as I walked down the aisle and If I Were a Rich Man during cocktail hour, despite neither song being officially listed on their website. The music was so gorgeous, and I can't wait to get our wedding video so I can listen to it all over again! Highly recommend :)
String Poets did a phenomenal job at our wedding. We used them for our ceremony and our cocktail hour. They were able to learn several songs for our processional and recessional - ...
ranging from modern rock to Disney - and did fantastic arrangements for all of it. We also received numerous compliments from our guests about their cocktail hour serenading. Beyond their technical talent, they were very easy to work with and friendly. We highly recommend them.

y as well the cocktail hour. They performed in the garden and then moved inside to the reception area, playing a wide variety of classical and pop music. So many of our guests commented on the beautiful music. Thanks again!
My wedding was on a very snowy day this year (Feb. 21, 2015). I had picked a duo to play classical music during the ceremony and on the day of my wedding they cancelled. Luckily St...
ring Poets already had such a wonderful reputation with my venue, the wedding coordinator contacted them on the day of my wedding to replace the duo that had cancelled at the last minute. String Poets made it to my wedding on time with 10 inches of snow on the roads and saved my ceremony! All of the wedding guests thought their music was outstanding and I really can not thank them enough for agreeing to come at the last minute during the middle of a snow storm! If you are looking for musicians that are talented and RELIABLE I would definitely recommend String Poets for your event!
Radhi & his crew did an amazing job at both our ceremony and our cocktail hour, providing a beautiful soundtrack for our big day.

I was so busy getting formal picture and then greeting my guests, but everyone said they were so good and really set the tone for our reception!
The String Poets played the ceremony and cocktail hour music for our wedding. They are clearly very talented musicians. Their music really enhanced the day and all of our guests ...
raved about their performance.
The reason we are not rating them 5 stars is because we think they could be better communicating with the bride and groom and establishing better plans before the event. We made an appointment to speak with the group contact at a specific time and then he wasn’t available. We later only had a very brief phone call and think it would be have been better to have discussed contacts on the day, contingency plans, etc in advance, but we did not. For example, before the ceremony when there was a risk of rain, they approached the groom and told him that they wouldn’t be able to play because their instruments might get wet. We would have appreciated the groom not having to deal with that right before the ceremony. In the end, our caterer/event planner found a solution. Due to the rain delay, the cocktail hour ran over but the musicians left at the pre-agreed time because we didn’t have a back-up plan.
The String Poets did a great job of performing during our ceremony and cocktail hour. We got so many compliments on them! They were a pleasure to work with!
