A Harmonious Symphony on Our Big Day!

The string quartet at our wedding was an absolute highlight! Their performance created an enchanting atmosphere, elevating our ceremony to a magical level. The musicians showcased incredible skill, seamlessly weaving through a diverse repertoire that perfectly captured the essence of our love story. From classical elegance to upbeat celebrations, their versatility was exceptional. Not only were they technically proficient, but their professionalism and attention to detail ensured a seamless collaboration. Our guests were thoroughly impressed, and the quartet's melodies lingered in our hearts, creating unforgettable memories. We wholeheartedly recommend Lake String Quartet for anyone seeking a musical ensemble that turns a beautiful day into an extraordinary symphony of love. Thank you for making our wedding day truly special!

NYE Wedding

We loved having Lake String Quartet at our wedding! So many guests commented on how their performance really made our event stand out. I was able to create my own lists of songs for before ceremony-ceremony-and cocktail hour, which I really appreciated. Communication was easy and Nanette was very responsive. I was planning my wedding from across the country-and she was super understanding and helpful throughout the process! Can’t say enough good things. Thank you all so much!

Beautiful music and very friendly to work with!

We were so happy to have Lake String Quartet play at our wedding in Rochester in May 2021. Their performance was absolutely beautiful and it was exactly what we envisioned for our wedding. Communicating with Nanette was very easy and thorough in the months and final days leading up to the wedding. We worked together to plan the repertoire and we were especially excited that the quartet learned one of our favorite songs just for our big day. Thank you Lake String Quartet!

Mood setter!

My husband and I were fortunate enough to have Lake String Quartet play during our ceremony. They have a large repertoire and some of the most unique songs that I would have never thought of! The only thing I knew FOR SURE I wanted for our wedding, was a string quartet. The only decorations were really, literally, floral arrangements. The mood wasn’t quiet set until Lake Strings started playing. I got chills waiting to walk down the isle listening to them. When I walked in the room it was the most wonderful setting that only they could have provided. It was more than my dreams could have ever imagined. It was emotional, fun, funky, and soo elegant at the same time. It was a breath of fresh air that helped me stay calm and so excited at the same time. If you’re ever lucky enough to have a wedding, or really any reason at all to have music, I would HIGHLY recommend Lake Strings Quartet. It was a living sound that made us all feel like royalty.
So grateful for them and their talents!

Outstanding

When I started planning my wedding I had no idea I was going to have a string quartet as our ceremony musicians, but wow did they make the wedding. One of the most talked about thing at our wedding was the ceremony music. It was so beautiful and they are so experienced. They have a great variety of music you can choose from and they are SO helpful if you have any questions. I LOVED having them apart of our big day!!!

I cannot say enough good things about Lake String Quartet. I have worked with them on a number of weddings in the past two years, and every single time I work with them, it is flawless. The communication before the wedding is prompt and informative and when they arrive, they are on time and a pleasure to coordinate the timing and songs for the ceremony. They work closely with the clients to help in music selection and then their execution is just simply stunning. Beautiful, elegant, and reasonably priced!

I am so happy that we featured the exceptionally talented Lake String Quartet at my wedding ceremony! The music was beautiful and enchanting and it was so romantic to walk down the aisle to their gorgeous sound! Lake String Quartet are extremely courteous and professional and accommodated all of my own preferences as well as the protocol for our Catholic church graciously. I highly recommend the Lake String Quartet--their music made my ceremony all the more special and they are a pleasure to work with!

This was easily the most "worth-it" wedding expense from our big day! The guests at our wedding ceremony could not believe that the music they were hearing was NOT a recording because it was so impeccable. Working with Nannette was so easy....she has done so many weddings so she knew all the questions to ask prior to the wedding. The group showed up well before the ceremony, started with our song list on time as our guests arrived, and ended as the last guest left the ceremony hall. They literally made us feel like we were in a movie their music was SO beautiful and their song timing was PERFECT for our processional. You can really tell they have been working together for quite some time. They also were more than happy to accommodate our last minute request to learn Michael Buble's "Everything" for our recessional! They learned it in one month and absolutely nailed it! We couldn't have been more pleased. HIGHLY recommend!

I cannot say enough good things about Nanette and the rest of the Lake String Quartet team!
Nanette worked closely with me via email to understand what I wanted played - and a few weeks prior to the ceremony, her team even learned a song not part of their playlist which was truly the icing on the cake for me :)
Lake String Quartet is reasonably priced, and their quality is outstanding - you are paying for prompt, attentive, highly-skilled professionals - you will not be disappointed.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
