Classy & Elegant

These ladies are a must at any wedding! We hired them to play at my daughters wedding and we are so glad we did. We had no idea what to expect we hired them solely on reviews. We have never hired/worked with soloists in he past. They were extremely easy to work with and allowed my daughter to pick her music; they were willing to learn new selections if necessary. They are professional and their talent is unmatched. They arrived prepared and were playing as guests were arriving to take their seats for the wedding. They played all the music selections to include the brides entrance song expertly. They added an extra touch of class and elegance to the day. I’m so glad we made the decision to hire the Sister Strings!

So much talent!!

When our wedding planner asked us about ceremony music, we were stumped. She then mentioned Sister Strings, and I started doing my research! Wow! I was so excited they were available the weekend we needed them! The list of songs they sent us was extensive and they were willing to learn new songs! These sisters are extremely talented and you can tell they enjoy what they do! We highly highly recommend them!!

Guests were RAVING

Sarah was amazing to work with. I cannot tell you how many compliments we got after our wedding in May of 2022 about Sister Strings and how beautiful it was to listen to them upon arrival and during our wedding ceremony. Very easy to work with, great communication and FANTASTIC VALUE. If you are even questioning having live music during your upcoming event/wedding do not hesitate to reach out, you will not be disappointed.

Exceptional Performance + Service

Sister Strings has been one of my favorite musicians in the wedding industry to work with to date. As a wedding planner, I value efficient communication and quality teamwork in other vendors. Sister Strings works with me on my musician itineraries for the event to ensure the wedding couple is receiving their exact specifications. Jewel was my main point of contact and was incredibly quick to respond to my questions leading up to the wedding day. When the wedding day came, Sister Strings was early to ensure proper set up, and they were so easy to coordinate with throughout the day. I could not recommend Sister Strings more!!!
