The Most Beautiful Addition to Any Event!!

We were blown away by how incredible the Barton Strings were for our wedding ceremony!

We booked a string trio and the music truly made the ceremony. Tracy was beyond helpful and kind. The Barton Strings sent us a list of all the songs in their repertoire and we were even able to listen to some of the songs they can perform on their Spotify and links on the website!!

We were a bit lost trying to decide which music to select and Tracy walked us through with patience and recommendations based on the music we expressed interest in.

Look no further and book the talented Barton Strings for any event that you want to enhance with beautiful live music!

It was a breathtaking experience. Barton Strings set the exact mood I was looking for!

My ceremony would not have been the same without Barton Strings! It set the exact romantic mood I wanted for my ceremony. Once I heard the song to start walking the emotions hit and made it all real and perfect. I highly recommend them for your ceremony/cocktail hour! You and your guest won’t be disappointed!

Chapel Dulcinea Wedding

I hired Barton Strings for my small Chapel Dulcinea wedding. They played beautifully and were very flexible when it came to choosing different songs. I highly recommend!
