Beautiful music and flexible/professional with changes

We had to reschedule due to COVID and Perfect Harmony Strings was AMAZING and flexible and helped us make the transition to our new postponed date smoothly. They provided beautiful music as guests found their seats and played the selections I requested during the ceremony. If you are looking for top-notch musicians, this ensemble is perfect for your big day!

Brilliant string trio

Honestly they were the highlight of the wedding - playing everything from Handel to Fall Out Boy beautifully. We had them play as guests gathered before our garden ceremony, the ceremony processional and recessional, and for a cocktail hour before we went in for dinner. Professional, sweet, talented.

Gretchen and the musicians were a blessing!

Gretchen was helpful and understanding throughout the planning process. We opted for the quartet for our ceremony in Florida. The musicians were lovely and played beautifully. Many of the guests shared in the weeks that followed how wonderful the quartet performed. Hope all of you are blessed!

the perfect sound!

Perfect Harmony Strings was such a wonderful addition to our ceremony and cocktail hour! My husband and I both agree that the ambiance they were able to create for outdoor wedding was unparalleled. We had a variety of genres played; from more traditional sets to the modern day hits- The set that resonated most with us was my walk down the aisle to ' Halo' by Beyonce. Perfect Harmony Strings truly was a dream to work with.

I had the pleasure of working with this vendors few months back. I had a great time working with Gretchen and her team. They were all very professional and with their help made this wedding run smoothly with ease. The music from the quartet was absolutely enchanting which helped transform this wedding into something magical. I would love to work with them again!
