Beautiful Music for our Cocktail Hour

We had the pleasure of having Lowcountry Strings play during our cocktail hour, and they were the perfect touch to our event. Bob Williams and the other musicians played absolutely beautiful music that was both catchy and current, yet had a classic sound. Their performance added an elegant and enjoyable atmosphere to our celebration. We highly recommend Lowcountry Strings for any event! Thank you, Bob and team, for making our cocktail hour so memorable!

Lowcountry Strings for weddings

Lowcountry Strings played at our daughter's wedding on Kiawah Island in November 2024. They were superb in all respects -- musicianship, song selection, and overall professionalism. We felt very fortunate to have such talented musicians play at the wedding. Our expectations were high, and Lowcountry Strings exceeded them. They have my highest recommendation.

Beautiful Music

When we were searching for strings music for our wedding and found Bob-Williams Duo, our searched stopped within minutes of hearing the talents of this father and son pair. Mr. Bob is very easy to work with and has very helpful suggestions for facilitating the flow of your ceremony. I highly recommend booking Bob-Williams Duo, and as the bride, I hope get to go to more weddings where I can be with the guests so I can hear them play!

Beautiful string music!

The Bob Williams duo played string melodies during our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour. The music was nothing if not perfect for our small intimate October event in Charleston. We also enjoyed the modern playlist that we could select from. Both musicians were polite, kind, and professional.

I would highly recommend them for any event if you're in search of beautiful string music!

Most amazing ceremony music

I cannot overstate how amazing Bob Williams Duo was at our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour. Their song selection was perfect! All of our guests loved their arrangements of modern songs that you might not necessarily expect to hear from a violin and classical guitar duo. Most of all, we sincerely appreciated Bob working with us to learn two very special songs to me and my wife, Bon Iver - “Holocene” and Ben Howard - “Old Pine”, which they played for the processions. These were very challenging arrangements that they adapted perfectly. We will always be grateful to Bob Williams Duo for making our wedding day that much more special!

Made our ceremony so memorable

Bob and his son did a fantastic job with our ceremony music and the cocktail hour music. We wanted classic rock done classically and it was perfect. Our guests had so much fun identifying each song as they played, from “Wonderful Tonight” and “More Than A Feeling” to “You Make Lovin’ Fun” and “In My Life.” Planning with Bob was a breeze and we could not be happier with how everything turned out.

Perfect for daughter's wedding

This duo was perfect for my daughter's outdoor wedding. We needed some music for the ceremony before the band started. Bob was a huge help in picking out the perfect music. I would totally recommend them to anyone looking for a small duo for wedding or party.
