These guys were wonderful! I had some pretty unique requests for our prelude and ceremony music, and they were able to track down the music for just a small fee. It really meant the world to me to hear the music I loved played on my wedding day!

After having looked at several local DC string quartets, my finacee and I selected the Cherry Blossom String Quartet (CBSQ) primarily for their musical quality and wide repertoire. At the audition, their musical performance, our highest criterion, was wonderful, with excellent blending and dynamics. However, their wide repertoire allowed us to do something that we had not expected - to have them play for both the ceremony and the reception (including the dancing).

In addition to the usual selection of classical music suitable for the ceremony, they also have a wonderful assortment of both jazz, pop, and broadway music available. So we selected the classical for the ceremony, and they played some jazz and broadway for the hors d'oeuvres and pop and broadway for the dancing. (The true test of this is that lots of people actually danced to their music!)

In addition to being very pleased with the CBSQ ourselves, we received numerous comments from the guests about how wonderful they were.
I cannot recommend them highly enough.

CBSQ was great. They played at our ceremony and cocktail hour. They are reasonably priced and they have a really wide selection of both classical and contemporary music to choose from. They did an awesome job at our wedding and I have no complaints. Theresa was really friendly and very responsive to my emails. I would highly recommend them for your wedding!

I never saw or met the Cherry Blossom String Quartet in person, but I worked with Erin on planning the music for our ceremony and cocktail hour via email and by listening to the music on their website. They were so professional and they sounded amazing. Our guests really enjoyed the music. I would recommend Cherry Blossom String Quartet to any bride who is looking for a group that is easy to work with and plays beautiful music. Thanks CBSQ!

We are so thrilled we were fortunate to have them at our daughter's wedding. We hired CBSQ to play before our ceremony, for the processional/recessional, and for the cocktail hour. From 1st to last interaction, they were consummate professionals. They had wonderful ideas and selections to choose from, and we particularly loved that we could have more traditional music for the ceremony, and more contemporary songs for the cocktail hour. They were so talented and guests noted what an extra wonderful touch they gave the day. Highly recommend!!

these guys are amazing. I asked if they would learn the song patience by guns and roses for me to walk in to and my wife requested maybe I'm amazed by Paul McCartney. my only regret is not getting to hear all of the arrangements that we chose for them to play but only due to the fact that we had to attend to our many guests. overall a fantastic group of people

The Cherry Blossom String Quartet was perfect for this less than traditional bride! I wanted all non-traditional ceremony music and the Quartet delivered! They even wrote the music for two of the songs I wanted that they previously hadn't performed. They were the perfect choice!

Cherry Blossom did a great job playing at our ceremony and cocktail hour. I really enjoyed their repertoire, and it was so special that they learned a song for me to walk down the aisle. Their music added a beautiful touch to the day, and we appreciated having them as part of our wedding!

The Cherry Blossom String Quartet performed at our wedding 3/30/13. They did a fantastic job during the ceremony, and cocktail hour, and we would highly recommend them to anyone who wants a string quartet to perform at their wedding ceremony.

We hired CBSQ for reception and cocktail hour music and they were incredible. We received numerous compliments from our wedding guests about the quartet (especially from my Dad), and although I was taking pictures during the cocktail hour, I absolutely loved what I heard when I was nearby. We asked them to play a mix of classical and modern/pop music and they were perfect and really fit in quite well with the overall vibe of our wedding. Also they learned a phish song for my walk down the aisle and it was beyond perfect. We had a bunch of phish phans in the bridal party/audience and they all approved of a job well done! A friend sent me a clip taken on their phone of part of my walk down the aisle - and I just keep playing it over and over so I can hear the song (and see all of my friends reactions when they figure out the song =) April was a pleasure to communicate with prior to the wedding and made everything super easy. THANK YOU CBSQ I hope I can find another event to have you all at! =)
