Hire Them!

My husband and I had Pizzicatomous play our ceremony music at our wedding this past summer, and we couldn’t recommend them enough! They were super easy to work with and even willing to learn a new song that I wanted to walk down the aisle to. We got many compliments from guests and have recommended them to anyone looking for beautiful live music for their special day!

Wedding on June 15th, 2024

My husband and I got married this past Saturday and had Pizzicatomus String Quartet play our ceremony music! Everyone loved the music so much!! They were so amazing and went out of their way to learn a song “Sweet Thing” by Van Morrison that I wanted to walk down the aisle to. We could not have asked for a more beautiful ceremony or day! We are so grateful for Pizzicatomus and will be recommending them to future family and friends :)

Absolutely perfect

Pizzicatomus String Quartet was the perfect addition to our wedding. Nicole was extremely responsive throughout the entire wedding planning process and was helpful in providing song recommendations for our ceremony. The quartet played during our ceremony and cocktail hour and numerous guests commented on how lovely the music was. I highly recommend Pizzicatomus if you are looking to add an extra special touch to your wedding!

Absolutely beautiful performance

This quartet played for my daughter’s wedding ceremony and cocktail time. They were amazing. Every song was played so well. My guests were blown away and kept asking where I found them. I can’t say enough about the talent they have. They are highly skilled professionals. I easily emailed with Nicole often to make all arrangements. They are a 10 out of a 10!

Nicole was so helpful and quick to respond! I had a special song request as a surprise for my groom... not only did Pizzicatomus play it exceptionally well, the guests got such a big kick out of the song! It worked out great! Unfortunately, I was never able to meet Nicole and the other ladies... I wished I could have thanked them in person for the amazing job they did! Would definitely recommend!

Don't even think twice!!! This group brought elegance beyond compare to our wedding ceremony. They were flexible with a change in schedule, and worked with us to incorporate the music we wanted..then expertly filled in the rest using pieces from their repertoire. The selections were perfect! The sound was amazing! Our day was made that much better because of their beautiful sound! My only regret was having to be in a different room for the prelude pieces, and not being able to fully enjoy them! My guests, however, can't stop talking about the beauty of their work! When I think back on all the details that made our day wonderful, this decision rises to the top! Thank you, thank you, thank you!
