Beautiful Addition to a Ceremony & Cocktail Hour!

Rita and her team from Frederick strings did a wonderful job! We were a couple who had to reschedule our wedding a few times due to COVID-19. They were flexible with our multiple reschedules and got back to us right away with their availability. We added the flute to the quartet, and it was a lovely addition. They planned all the music we requested during the ceremony and cocktail hour. It was a beautiful addition to our perfect day!

Planning a wedding you deal with MANY vendors and I must say, Rita and her team were one of the easiest! She was so helpful, sweet, and responded quickly to any questions I had. I knew I did not have to worry at all about my ceremony music on my big day. Excellent choice if you would like a trio or quartet!!

Frederick Strings added the perfect atmosphere for our wedding and cocktail hour. They were fantastic to work with, asked for and listened to our requests and the music was perfect. I highly recommend them for that special formal touch.
