Beautiful cello instrumentals for ceremony

High praise for Music by Anthem and specifically Kristin Jones, our cellist for the ceremony! Kristin is not only a highly skilled musician, but was super responsive and had a wide selection of music options, both traditional and more modern — while our processional music was more traditional, we were excited to have her play 'In My Life' by the Beatles for our recessional! Pricing was reasonable and the process very straightforward — Kristin made it easy to check ceremony music off the list, both in planning and on the day of the wedding. Highly recommend!

AMAZING!!!
I requested film scores at my wedding to be played and they performed everything as requested. My guests said they were great and loved everything that was played. The cost for services was affordable and they were very flexible and understanding with our wedding postponements due to Covid. I communicated mainly with Chelle but after the last postponement she had prior arrangements so she had me communicate with Kristen who was also great. The planning process and communication went smoothly. TOTALLY RECOMMEND!!!

Anthem was great! They provided a string quartet for our pre-ceremony, ceremony and cocktail hour. The coordinator and musicians were very professional and easy to work with. The only bad side was not getting to hear all of the music because of being the bride and groom (not being in the ballroom for the pre-ceremony music and not being at the whole cocktail hour).

Anthem was great! They provided a string quartet for our ceremony and cocktail hour. Chelle was wonderful to work with, very responsive by email and enthusiastic about providing music that we would love. I wanted a special cello solo for my processional, that Kristen was happy to play for me. It made it more exciting for me that she was also excited to play it - especially since I had spoken to other musicians who did not think it was a good piece for a processional.

I didn't hear them during the cocktail hour (picture-time), but my guests really loved the fact that they were playing popular songs as a string quartet, as opposed to straight classical music.

Anthem's string quartet really made me happy on my wedding day! Thank you!

A family friend who had met and played violin with Chelle Fulk recommended her and Music by Anthem. I couldn’t be happier that they played at the ceremony and cocktail hour for our wedding. The website is very informative. We spoke on the phone and she gave great information. We had a great string quartet playing for the wedding. She sent a list of the repertoire, which is huge! We filled out a ceremony music planner form with songs we wanted for the ceremony and cocktail hour. Chelle was very easy to work with. The musicians were great! Many friends and family members asked about them after the wedding. One family friend got married a few months after our wedding and decided to work with Music by Anthem as well. It was such a fun mix of classical pieces and a lot of fun to hear songs by the Beatles played by a string quartet. I loved, loved, loved that they were able to play Led Zeppelin on strings.

Anthem provided a string quartet for our wedding ceremony. The musicians were fabulous. Professional and talented. Chelle was wonderful throughout the planning process: attentive, flexible and kind. She gave helpful guidance regarding the playlist and offered a vast selection to choose from. She even downloaded a couple special songs for our entrance and exit. I was so happy to work with an independent business owner--an artist--instead of a more corporate booking agency. Most importantly, we all loved the performance. Anthem was a special part of our wedding ambiance.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
