Yolanda and her team were AMAZING! We hired her for pre ceremony and precision music. They put together a custom processional song that turned out absolutely beautiful. Yolanda was so communicative and thorough throughout the entire process. To top it all off, her services were definitely affordable for the wonderful quality that was received. We can’t thank her enough.
Yolanda is a dream!!! Absolutely wonderful to work with, and so communicative and friendly via email. We had the string duo for our wedding this past weekend, and it was just absolutely perfect and set such a beautiful tone. Highly recommend!
Lisa was amazing on our wedding day (6/24/23)
I felt terrible I never got to introduce myself to her on my crazy day (ceremony delay due to rain) but the music was beautiful. It was everything I had hoped for on my big day! Thank you Lisa!
We had the string trio from Strings For All Occasions play during the ceremony and cocktail hour of our June 2023 wedding and they were fabulous! The communication before our wedding was great and the music was beautiful on the day of. Yolanda and her group are true professionals and helped make our big day perfect.
We wanted a short and sweet ceremony, so we figured having a violinist would be the perfect sentimental detail to our wedding. We're so glad we went with Strings For All Occasions! We worked with Yolanda, who was very responsive and detail-oriented. She went through all of our ceremony details and made sure she understood our vision. She also learned a new song for us, Afterglow by Ed Sheeran, because I had my heart set on walking down the aisle to it. All of the music during the ceremony was perfect. We absolutely recommend Strings for All Occassions!
The band completed my vision for our wedding, playing beautifully during the ceremony and cocktail hour. We also arranged for them to accompany two of our friends while they sang a song during the ceremony. They came a bit early to ensure they could all practice together so the event went off without a hitch! Having the musicians there made the song so much more beautiful. I highly recommend Yolanda and the musicians if you're looking to bring your event to the next level. Absolutely beautiful!
Yolanda was such a pleasure to work with. From the planning sessions to the day of the wedding, everything went seamlessly. Yolanda worked with us on our our set list - mixing both classic and modern songs. She was really accomodating and understood immediately the vibe we were going for. I'd high recommend her and her team for any event!
This team was great to work with! Their song list allows for a contemporary wedding ceremony. Yolanda’s attention to detail and planning was very helpful! We are thrilled to have had this group apart of our wedding ceremony!
My wedding day ended up being super hectic, but SFAO was flexible and made my day so special! They played beautifully and were so friendly and professional. Leading up to the wedding, they were very easy to work with and made sure everything was communicated clearly to make sure the event went off without a hitch. It was always my dream to have a string quartet at my wedding and I'm so glad I chose SFAO! I had people coming up to me all night talking about how amazing they were!
We booked Strings For All Occasions for our May wedding, and things could not have gone better! The music was beautiful and amazing, and Yolanda and the rest of the trio were professional, punctual and ready to go. Yolanda was very responsive and easy to work with as we discussed what I envisioned for our ceremony and our needs!
We hired Yolanda as a solo violinist for our wedding and I cannot emphasize how talented she is. From the start she was so excited to work with us and truly paid attention to our personalities in order to tailor songs that would match our culture. She played so beautifully and added such an elegant touch to our wedding! I regret not hiring a videographer because I wish I could have had her on film just so I could listen over and over!!
I had the pleasure of working with Yolanda and she is a amazing violinist and would totally recommend her to anyone for their wedding.
I had the pleasure of collaborating with Yolanda on a recent client's wedding. What a talent! Her music arrangements are flawless, interesting to listen to and she is absolutely mesmerizing to watch. Your guests will love her! Be prepared for lots of iPhones being reached for- hiring Yolanda is an entertainment experience unto itself. I will definitely be using Yolanda for my clients looking for live musicians.
Yolanda was so amazing to work with! She was very quick with responses and did an amazing job on the ceremony music at my wedding! I highly recommend her!
Our photographers suggested them but we decided on Yolanda and Strings for All Occasions because when we asked her, “What music do you love playing?” she replied with, “Oh everything! I love playing music!” We booked a string duo and Yolanda gave us a great list of songs to choose from which had a good range from classical to modern and even quirky (which we loved). We also had Yolanda and the other half of the duo, Gary, learn a specific song we wanted. A few days before the wedding Yolanda emailed us to ask a few questions to be sure to fit the song to our ceremony and that was it. All of it was beautiful but when they started to play the song we requested as I walked down the aisle both of us started to cry. One of the very few things I regret from our wedding day was that we didn’t get to meet and thank Yolanda and Gary in person after the wedding. They really made the ceremony beautiful and I would recommend them highly.
My fiancé and I were married on 8/10/18 in New Hampshire. Yolanda (solo violinist) was so kind and responsive throughout the planning process. I was able to have open conversations with her about my options.
She was very upfront about everything and quite accommodating to our vision; she even emailed us clips of her playing certain songs and learned how to play new music specifically for our ceremony. She was on time and professional. Her talent is amazing! I was nearly in tears, listening to her play as I walked down the aisle with my dad. Many of our guests have reached out to us after the wedding to compliment how much Yolanda added to our ceremony and how beautifully she played; she made a world of difference. I would 1000% recommend hiring her for your ceremony!
We recently had Yolanda play violin on her loop pedal for our ceremony and cocktail reception at the Beardsley Zoo in Bridgeport, CT. She was a total highlight of the wedding. Everyone commented on how amazing and talented she is. (And they are right!) She was so flexible and fun to work with every step of the way. I would highly recommend her to anyone. We can't wait to hear her play again. Thank you Yolanda!!!
Yolanda was amazing to work with! She was super responsive and helpful in picking out the songs we wanted for our ceremony. Walking down the aisle to my favorite Beatles song on the violin was an absolutely perfect moment that I will never forget and I am so grateful to her for playing it so perfectly! If you're on the fence about having a violinist for your ceremony - JUST DO IT. She added so much and for the cost it was so worth it. It was the icing on the cake of a perfect, beautiful day. Thank you, Yolanda!!
Yolanda was great to work with! I decided I wanted a violinist only about 5 weeks before my wedding. She was able to accommodate all of my requests even though I found her only a few weeks before the wedding. She was fast to respond to my emails and even reached out to our venue to get some information she needed for the set up. Yolanda's live music added a beautiful touch to our wedding and I would 100% recommend her to anyone!
I feel really bad that I never got to personally introduce myself to the two women who played at our wedding since the day was so crazy, but the music was just beautiful. Exactly what I was hoping for for my wedding day! They did great!
We used the string quartet, which was absolutely stunning. The manager is super friendly and easy to work with. They have a large list of selections, and will guide you if you need help choosing music.
