About

On WeddingWire since 2011

MAYFIELD STRINGS will bring a touch of elegance to any event with string ensembles that specialize in classical and contemporary music. From solo cello to duo combos (including cello & guitar and 2 cellists) to a string trio or full string quartet, Mayfield Strings can provide your wedding or special event with an ensemble that matches your vibe and enhances the ambience of your event.

Operating for almost two decades, Mayfield Strings puts expertise and attentiveness into each client relationship. Manager and cellist Tara works closely with each client to curate and organize all the musical details and ensure a smooth flow at the event.

Our repertoire spans genres of classical, pop, rock, standards, jazz, folk, film and more! Our library is ever-expanding, and we are happy to learn new songs and take on special requests. Along with instrumental arrangements, our duo options (cello & guitar and 2 cellists) can offer vocals to the ensemble as well!

Mayfield Strings currently serves the Adirondacks, the Capitol District Region and the New York City Tri-State Area. Previously serving Northeast Ohio and New York City, we are excited about our expansion into beautiful upstate NY!

Incredibly talented musicians

Cannot recommend them enough. We booked them aftr being highly impressed after they played our friends wedding. We chose the beautiful cello and violin duo for our ceremony and cocktail hour and they did not disappoint. Versatile and moved in and outdoors as needed when we had a little rain and continued playing while people were situated. Excellent selection of contemporary and classic songs, completely customizable to what you choose. Can pick each song for every min of the event or what we did which was give them an idea of percentage contemporary vs classical and just choose the major songs you want for walking down the aisle etc with some details on songs we enjoy. Really talented musicians offering excellent service at a great price. I would highly recommend booking with Tara Hanish and Mayfield Strings.

Absolutely amazing

Tara played the cello at our wedding and it is something our guest are still raving about almost two months later. As a very picky bride, I do not have a single complaint!

Thank you so much!

We were very happy with Tara and Mayfield Strings. They traveled to the Catskills for our wedding at The Inn at West Settlement, learned two songs for the ceremony at our request that made it really personal, and had a great selection of songs to choose from to fill out the rest of the ceremony. They made our lives easy the day of the wedding coordinating with the sound tech and owner of the venue to get set up.

We'd absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for a string group and got so many compliments from our friends and family!
