I hired a trio from String Variations to perform music for my wedding ceremony. I worked with Gael in choosing music selections and the time line of the ceremony. We had a pretty s...
tandard ceremony and they were asked to play a medley of songs from their repertoire as the guests were arriving for the ceremony, Canon in D by Pachelbel for the procession, and then Wedding March for the recessional. The trio arrived to the venue on time, were dressed professionally, and performed the duties they were hired to do. The string music definitely added to the atmosphere of the ceremony.

String Variations were considerably cheaper than other options I had reviewed. They played beautifully traditional wedding music for the ceremony, and mixed it up with more curren...
t music during cocktail hour. It was very nice back drop music. Added a very nice ambiance, and was well worth the (very reasonable) price.
They were easy to work with played beautiful music and moved outside when the crowd moved outside.
