    10/10 recommend for your wedding!

    Hektor and his string quartet were such a core part of my wedding day that my guests and I will truly remember forever! I could not recommend them more. From start to finish, Hektor was communicative, professional, and trusting. Coordinating with him was incredibly easy and smooth, which was such a spot of relief amidst chaotic wedding planning. His quartet delivered the most excellent performances (including of a piece I requested they compose) that helped create the most beautiful ceremony and reception! I also think they offered incredibly reasonable prices for the length of time they played + quality of work. Thank you, Star String Quartet!

    Stunning rendition of “Turning Page”

    Star String Quartet did a beautiful job playing at our ceremony and cocktail hour. Their rendition of “Turning Page” enhanced my walk down the aisle with my dad so much - it was truly the most memorable and emotional moment of my life.

    Beautiful and perfect

    Star string quartet was WONDERFUL! Leading up to our wedding, they were so professional and so easy to keep in contact with. They were also extremely flexible when I changed my mind a thousand times for various requests for our wedding. They played BEAUTIFULLY at both the ceremony and reception. The guests LOVED them. Would strongly recommend hiring them for anyone looking to add something fun to any event- especially weddings!

    Beautiful musicians!!!!

    I cannot say enough good things about Hektor and the Star String Quartet! Hektor played violin during my wedding ceremony and cocktail hour and I had so many guests tell me how beautiful the violin music was. They were able to play all of my song choices/preferences beautifully including classical and contemporary music. Having violinists play music at my wedding brought such a beautiful and classy feeling to the evening. If you are looking for talented musicians at your wedding, you will not be disappointed with the Star String Quartet!

    Star String Quartet was absolutely fantastic!!

    Hektor was absolutely fantastic! He worked with me to customize my ceremony music and went out of his way to make sure everything sounded perfect. From our first contact he was so kind, responsive, and professional. The whole experience was wonderful start to finish. The live music really elevated our wedding and I would 100% recommend Hektor and Star String Quartet to anyone!

    We hired Star String Quartet to play during our ceremony and they did an amazing job! Hektor is very responsive and he helped me choose music that fit best for our wedding. I highly recommend them for your wedding day!

    Star String Quartet was absolutely AMAZING!!!

    Hektor Qyteti’s “Star String Quartet” performed at our outdoor garden wedding last fall at Meadow Brook Hall in Rochester Hills, Michigan. They were absolutely incredible and we are so happy with our decision to hire them! Prior to the wedding, Hektor was extremely responsive, kind, upbeat, and helpful, which was wonderful given that we were planning our entire wedding in only 3 months. He was one of the best vendors we worked with, and he made us feel at ease and confident in our choice to hire his group. He thoroughly explained all of our options regarding song selections and helped make the decision-making process easy. On the day of the wedding, the group arrived on time and set up their chairs and instruments on the side of the garden area so quietly and discreetly that we hadn’t even noticed them! Once they started playing, the atmosphere became elegant and felt almost magical! The quartet’s musical performance was outstanding. We requested a few selections for certain parts of the ceremony but for the most part asked them to perform a variety of pieces, and their musical selections were beautiful and perfect for our wedding day! The quartet additionally performed after the ceremony during the cocktail hour and many guests raved about how delightful their music was; some of our guests even said that the quartet was their favorite part of our entire wedding day! As the bride and groom, however, we were so busy taking photos during the cocktail hour that we didn’t get a chance to just sit down and listen to the quartet, and we really wished we could have! Thankfully their music is captured in our wedding video so we can re-live their performance for many years to come. We highly recommend Hektor Qyteti and his Star String Quartet to anyone and we hope to someday have another special event so we can hire them again!

    Professional & Accomadating

    Hektor and his band sounds absolutely perfect in my venue. Hektor was great about communication and understanding my needs as the bride. We received soo many compliments at our wedding about them.

    Nothing but extraordinary

    Hire Star String Quartet you will not be disappointed. Hektor was communicative through the whole process leading up to my wedding day. Willing to play any music, if they don’t have the sheet music for it, you get it for them. I had nothing but compliments about Star String Quartet. Thank you for making my day so memorable! :)

    Incredible talent & service!!!

    I booked this quartet for my wedding, which I planned very quickly (under 5 weeks). In a short span of time, they learned a completely new song that didn't even have string music for it and certainly doesn't fall into the wedding genre. I made a risky decision to walk into my husband's favorite band, The Used (Smother Me), as a surprise to him, and somehow this quartet made this scream-o band sound so refined and elegant! And they coordinated playing this with a pianist, Ave Maria with a duet... all in more like 2 weeks because it took time to get the sheet music. Hektor was great, extremely responsive and professional, and after quoting out many quartets, their prices are by far the best in the area without sacrificing one bit of quality! My friend booked them the next week for a proposal and was very happy!

    Amazing quartet!! A bride’s dream music!!

    Hektor and his musicians were amazing!! They were all so professional and well polished. I have worked with Hektor as a church musician myself and was able to witness his and his musicians’ talents but never was the bride hiring him until my own wedding!! It was even more fabulous being the bride having his quartet play than working side by side with him because it gave me a different view. My brother wrote my processional and recessional piece and Hektor didn’t hesitate to work with us to learn those original pieces to make it that much more special for our wedding. I recommend this group of musicians to anyone looking for strings for their wedding ceremony or reception. You won’t be disappointed!

    Perfect music choice!

    Hektor and the Star String Quartet were amazing! Communication was wonderful, professionalism was great, flexibility to roll with the fluidity of the event was awesome! I really can't say enough good things about this group. We got so many compliments about them from our guests. We were extremely happy with every aspect of the Quartet!!

    Hire Them!

    We received so many raving reviews from our guests regarding the string duo (violinist and cello) during our ceremony and cocktail hour. Hektor goes above and beyond and is very responsive. He made sure that the songs we specifically requested were played and will even play a specific version of a song (if requested and possible). Their prices are very affordable as well. Having the duo during our ceremony and cocktail hour made our wedding that much more special! All of the guests really enjoyed the beautiful music and are still mentioning it to this day. Very talented and I would HIGHLY recommend the Star String Quartet/Duo to anyone looking for live music.

    This quartet is amazingly talented and are wonderful to work with! Hektor was great at communicating with me and price for his service was fair for what we received. It meant so much to my husband and me to have this quartet perform on our wedding day. I would recommend them to anyone!

    It was a great decision to book Star String Quartet for our wedding day! They are very responsive, professional, and of course they sound fantastic. 10/10 would recommend them to anyone looking for string music!

    Mother of the Bride

    Hektor Qyteti’s Star String Quartet is the absolute BEST around. As a professional church organist myself, I have collaborated with Hektor in the past and have always enjoyed listening to his ensemble perform. So, as mother of the bride, when it came time to book musicians for my daughter’s wedding, the Star String Quartet was my #1 choice. Not only do they have a huge selection of classical pieces in their repertoire, they have a wide range of contemporary songs to offer as well. In addition, they will honor requests and learn special songs for your event if music is available. We had Many professional musician guests at this wedding as the bride herself is also a professional musician. Everyone was enchanted with the music provided by Star String Quartet.

    10/10 Would Recommend!!

    LOVED having the Star String Quartet play for my wedding! They were complete professionals and their instrumental music was *beautiful*. They played Pachabel's Canon for the procession, Joyful Joyful for the recession, and "Can't Help Falling in Love" when I walked down the aisle - I wish I could attach a clip to better capture how perfect it all was. They were also incredibly easy to work with (which is really worth its weight in gold when planning a wedding:).
    10/10 would recommend using them!

    Truly a must have - absolutely magica

    If you’re even considering having a quartet for your wedding, DO IT! The Star String Quartet played for our ceremony and truly turned it into one of the most magical experiences of the night. Our guests complimented us (and the quartet!) many times throughout the evening. It truly was one of my favorite parts of the wedding day. Thank you Hektor and the rest of the quartet for making one of the best days of our lives that much better :)

    Hektor was amazing! He has some serious skills and customized our music to set the perfect mood we were going for! Many of our guests complimented the ceremony music and how it made them emotional before the ceremony even started. Just beautiful.

    Fabulous music

    Hired for a small wedding, and cannot say enough about Star Strings! They are amazing musicians. Communication with Hektor was easy, open and ongoing throughout the process. The bride and groom had a specific song they wanted for their first dance, and Hektor made it happen. They were timely, professional, and have an extensive repertoire to choose from. I highly recommend them, and would definitely use them in the future.

    Absolutely wonderful and perfect way to make your wedding stand out from others

    We had a trio play at our wedding and it was absolutely perfect. Many friends and family said that the live music was so fitting for the romantic little white chapel where our ceremony was held. Since it was live, they were able to adjust the music to suit our wedding party as they walked down the aisle and allow for my grand entrance to be accompanied by the music. In addition, we had two readers in our ceremony who mentioned that the elegant and graceful music helped calm their nerves. I highly recommend live music for the ceremony and even more so recommend Star String Quartet who were responsive and so easy to work with!

    Great Experience and Beautiful Music!

    We had the Star String Duo at our wedding on 10/1 (cello and violin). Our guests loved them! They were great at communicating with- even when I had to give them last minute changes. I would definitely recommend! Beautiful sound, and made our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour very memorable.

    Best Music Ever

    Hektor is amazing. Very responsive and understanding of your budget. So many of my guests complimented the music of the violinist and cellist during the ceremony and cocktail hour. Being the bride, I only got to hear the music at the ceremony, but my now husband expressed the fact that hearing Hektor and his partner play actually helped comfort him prior to me walking down the aisle. If you are hesitant about booking, don't be. You should be more hesitant about not booking because Hektor will have you covered and happy.
