Exceeded our Expectations!

Austin and his team truly made our daughter's ceremony special! They are friendly, professional, and so eager to accommodate! Communication with Austin was always timely and effective. He was so flexible, helping us navigate a Covid reschedule, a last minute decision to upgrade to a trio, and a very last minute rain/cold plan! The questionnaire he sent helped my daughter and her (now) husband determine the tone they wanted for the ceremony. They chose contemporary selections and Coastal Chamber Musicians played them beautifully. Their performance truly enhanced the light, happy, and celebratory mood of the day! I received many comments from guests regarding how beautiful and uplifting the ceremony music was. Most of all, the bride and groom were so happy with every aspect of the day, and especially their ceremony music, thanks to Coastal Chamber Musicians. Thanks Austin and Team!

Austin was so easy to work with. He listened to my ideas and suggested what he thought was good and what could be better.

Austin and his musicians made the ceremony and the cocktail hour perfect. They are gifted in their trade. I cannot speak more highly of his professionalism, experience, and kindness. You will not be disappointed. Roger and I as well as our guests loved the music.

Delightful

Coastal Chamber Musicians were delightful! Easy to work with, flexible and accommodating. We had them play classical music for our ceremony and pop music for our cocktail reception. And people actually spontaneously danced! Our guests and other vendors raved about how wonderful they were! We highly recommend this trio!

Coastal Chamber Musicians Elevated Our Big Day!

They helped to create an incredible atmosphere for our guests to enjoy themselves. We are so grateful for Coastal Chambers for stepping in at the last minute when another string musician couldn’t make it. They did an amazing job and we are so happy that they were there to play for our ceremony and cocktail hour! They are very professional and talented, I highly recommend them to anyone looking to elevate their wedding experience for guests!

Hands Down, YES!

just now
I’m not sure where to begin. Today as I look through our wedding photos I think back on just how thankful I am for choosing Coastal Chamber Musicians. Not only was Austin attentive, communicative and a delight to work with, his craft is incredible. We chose to go with the string duet of Violin and Cello for our ceremony, cocktail hour and reception. At first we were a bit hesitant about choosing a duet for such a small, intimate sized wedding, we were concerned it could be too overpowering ... it was not, it was such a beautiful addition to our special day. We selected a handful of our favorite upbeat love songs and I can’t help but smile at the thought of hearing them played throughout the evening. I’m so so so happy that we chose such a classy addition to our wedding. If you’re looking for an excellent, professional musician to compliment your wedding day look no further, Please do yourself a favor and reach out to Austin. Forever grateful for him and his team.

Single Violinist was amazing

We did a single violinist for our ceremony and he was great. The pastor said he was the best he has ever heard. Pastor even tried to recruit him to play for his church. Austin was great and easy to get in contact with.

Outstanding

Coastal chambers musicians played string instruments for my prelude and ceremony this past weekend at my wedding. Unfortunately being the bride I really didn’t get to hear much which I’m sad about because every single guest that I talked to said the music at my ceremony was so beautiful and the musicians were so passionate they could’ve sat there and listen to it for hours. Austin Was great at helping me to figure out how many songs for the processional and his suggestions for specific pieces for different times during the wedding. I felt like they far exceeded my expectations per everybody is reviews that they gave me the at the reception and the days following. Thank you Austin and coastal chambers musicians for making my wedding something straight out of a movie!
