About

Queen City Ensemble is a highly sought-after Professional String Trio based in Charlotte, North Carolina. Sisters Jenny Jones and Becky Thoms are violinists who have formed this string trio with cellist Jean Beaudoin, playing for weddings and events in and around the Charlotte area. With an average of over 20 years of experience, each member is a classically trained musician. They have performed in numerous orchestras and accompanied several world-class musicians.

Why Hire Queen City Ensemble?

-Queen City Ensemble is not a group that is just put together for your wedding day or special event. Many contractors put together musicians who have never played together before your wedding day resulting in music that doesn't always sound put together which can result in disastrous wedding processionals/ recessionals.

-With over ten years of experience playing together as a trio they are able to read each other's musical cues giving you a flawless performance.

-With hundreds of weddings; rehearsal dinners; cocktail hours; and wedding receptions under our belt, the trio has mastered the precise timing for wedding processions and has developed playlists of music pieces that will work for each type of event.

-From the moment you contact us until your wedding day, we are available to answer any and all questions as we guide you through the process of setting up your wedding vision with music.

-We personally contact your venue and wedding coordinators and work with them to ensure success when dealing with everything from trio placement to musical cues for your wedding procession down the aisle.

-You will be working one on one with a trio member who will give you unlimited personal guidance in choosing your wedding music.

-We have an extensive repertoire list. There are many pieces/songs to choose from. Our list includes standard classical music, many popular contemporary songs and even some broadway hits.

-Because the trio has access to music arrangers, we can take requests for music, not on our repertoire list, to help make your musical vision come true.

Working with Queen City Ensemble was fantastic! They were wonderful to partner with when planning ceremony music, and they added the perfect amount of elegance to our simple, whimsical, wedding, where we wanted love to be the focus. I cannot recommend them enough!
