Such a beautiful touch

We didn't use the full quartet, but you could clearly recognize each song, and they were played beautifully. The timing was perfect during key moments of the ceremony. We had Emily perform during our cocktail hour, and we loved the alternative rock beats—it was so fun watching our guests figure out the songs! Her talent truly added a unique and memorable touch to our day.

Highly recommended!

My heart goes on for the SB String Quartet!

I'm embarrassed to be writing this review is SO late, but we had a strings trio play at our wedding in October 2022 and they were absolutely perfect!! I had several particular/borderline weird special requests and Emily was so wonderful to work with every step along the way. She went out of her way to figure out how to find the music for a fairly random/obscure song I love from Titanic, and even sent me a sample of her playing the specific stanza (also from Titanic) I wanted played while I walked down the aisle. I love strings music so much and I could cry tears of joy just remembering what a beautiful addition they were to our special day. You will not regret hiring them for any special occasion!!

Beautiful addition to our ceremony

So grateful for Santa Barbara String Quartet for playing during our ceremony. Such a beautiful and elegant addition to our ceremony and they really enhanced our ceremony. We received so many compliments from our guests! Emily was so great to work with during the ceremony planning process, making sure we knew all of the song options and ensuring our wedding ceremony ran smoothly with our song selections. Highly recommend booking Santa Barbara String Quartet!!!
