Barton Strings provided a string quartet and a trumpeter for our wedding ceremony. All of the selections were beautiful. We had a classically trained musician as a groomsman, and he raved about what a great job Barton Strings did (especially the trumpeter). I would highly recommend them to other brides!

The trio that played at our wedding was absolutely fantastic. They were very professional and the music was so beautiful, it was like our wedding guests had come for a concert and got to stay for a wedding. Thank you again for working with us and for the beautiful music you played- you helped make our ceremony truly special!
