Incredible trio. Even better with quartet!

The Bernstein Bard Trio (and the extra fiddle player) were exceptional. They were the first vendor we booked and they worked with us throughout our entire wedding planning process to make the event perfect. They went above and beyond to make sure that we had a set list that was just right. They are all incredibly talented musicians that helped our ceremony, cocktail hour, and dinner all sound exactly how we wanted. I really hope my wife and I have an opportunity to see them perform live again!

Amazing band for our ceremony and cocktail hour!

We were so glad we went with the Bernstein Bard Trio for our wedding ceremony and reception! Mark was great to work with throughout the planning process. He was very communicative, and sent us a list of suggestions for processional and recessional songs, but was also open to work with us on alternatives if we needed.

Day of, they were perfect! It's clear they've done this many times before. All they needed was a power strip (which Mark let me know in advance), and they took care of everything else. We also had our ceremony and cocktail hour in two different areas of the same venue (a farm), so they prepped both areas in advance so they could quickly move from one to the other.

Last but not least, they're a very talented group! Their music is beautiful and was perfect for our ceremony and then added perfect atmosphere to the cocktail hour. We'd gladly recommend them to anyone!

Wonderful Experience

The Bernstein Bard Trio was such a pleasure to work with, and a beautiful addition to our wedding. We hired them to play music during the ceremony, and we're so happy we did. They were very professional and easy to communicate with leading up to the event. They are extremely flexible and will work with you in selecting your music. In the midst of your wedding planning chaos, it will be a weight off your shoulders to know you are in good hands with them. All of our guests complimented how beautiful they sounded as well as the selection of songs they chose. They played our processional and recessional as well, and made the special moments even more special. Cannot recommend them highly enough!
