Wide Variety of Incredibly Talented Artists

I love partnering with Natalie from Midtown Strings. Beyond being extremely talented herself, she's also connected to a lot of other awesome and talented artists in the city. We have partnered with her to bring a variety of different music genres to life for our events - violin + DJ, violin trio, folk band with vocalist, jazz trio, etc - and each one brought a huge WOW factor that our attendees loved! Natalie is always super responsive and willing to brainstorm awesome musical acts for any event I come to her with! She's my go to and I know when I work with her, the music will be on point. Absolutely recommend!

An amazing addition to our wedding day

We are so happy that we hired Midtown Strings for our intimate fall ceremony! The music matched our historic venue so well and really transformed the ceremony into a romantic moment. The entire hiring process was easy, and I was particularly happy to support a women-owned business. This is a group of true artists and professionals and I'm confident they can meet the needs of any dream wedding, be it large or small.

Favorite Wedding Choice


We hired Midtown Strings for ceremony music for our wedding on 9/23/2023 and I still think it was one of our best decisions and one of our favorite things about our wedding. They were so easy to work with, so professional, and the music was beautiful. Having live string music really added so much to our ceremony. Our guests absolutely raved about Midtown Strings. They have a very large list of music that you can choose from for them to play, and they even offer to learn a few songs if there is a song you would like that is not on their repertoire. I would hire them over and over again. I highly HIGHLY recommend them to make any occasion beautiful and memorable. We love Midtown Strings!
