Best in the business!

Our wedding that took place on November 14, 2020 was anything than originally planned. Eric along with Fred, Pat and Eddie were part of our original vision prior to dealing with the global pandemic. At a time when everything was stressful, he supported us switching venues and coming up with an intimate ceremony and cocktail hour. As we had several restrictions, guidelines and safety measures in place his team arrived on time, with the highest level of professionalism and maintained all protocols in place. The musical choices were flawless including renditions of “All you need is love” by The Beatles and “Wonderful Tonight” by Eric Clapton for us in a beautiful outdoor ceremony. Having the element of a string quartet will bring tears to each and every guest and bring a level of elegance you could only dream about. The Sterling Stings are by far the best in the business and their level of talent is like no other. I promise from the initial call or email with Eric to the actual event will be a flawless experience with one of the most knowledgeable band leaders in the business and an event everyone will be talking about for years to come. Whether a 300-person wedding or a 30-person outdoor event, The Sterling Strings will deliver each and every time and there is only one choice for a string quartet. We can’t thank them enough for making our wedding day one for the books!

Absolutely magical!

Sterling Strings was such an incredible addition to our wedding day at The Sanctuary on Roosevelt Island last month! Music is so important to my husband and I (I’m a singer/actor, and he is a composer), and we knew we wanted to have a string quartet as part of the ceremony. We are also huge movie buffs, so we decided that we wanted all of the pre-ceremony music to be famous themes from movies. The Sterling Strings team made us feel so great about our musical selections, and so many guests have told us that guessing the movie theme was one of their favorite parts of the wedding! I still get chills thinking about how beautiful they sounded as I walked down the aisle. If you’re looking for extremely talented musicians to add a bit of romance to the atmosphere, look no further! Thank you again to Eric and the entire Sterling Strings team for making our ceremony so special!

Best Ceremony & Cocktail Hour

Stirling Strings made our wedding reception and cocktail hour both elegant and fun as the beautifully performed contemporary hip hop and pop music. Their rendition of “Ocean Eyes” by Billie Eilish was the perfect accompaniment to the bride walking down the aisle. The quartet started our wedding on a perfect note and set the exact tone we desired for the type of music our guests were to experience throughout the night. Their performance truly made our wedding special.

Incredible music and vibes

Our guests were so impressed by Sterling Strings! The group arrived on time, figured out set up seamlessly, and proceeded to wow us all. It was so magical to enjoy both modern hits (Beyonce, Rihanna, Lana Del Rey etc) and classical selections throughout our day and they provide an expansive list of options to choose from. Thank you so much for your artistry!

Best Band In NYC

The most professional and reliable band to utilize for your event. We hired them for our wedding and we were so happy. Our guests loved the music during the ceremony and reception. A great selection to choose from, open lines of communication prior to our wedding, and arrived early to set up. What an amazing experience

Delivered on every request!

We could not be happier about the performance from Sterling Strings. They were the ultimate professionals and easy to communicate with. To make our day even more special they were able to incorporate special request songs from different genres, including Afrobeats, which was a great treat for our guests. They come highly recommended for any event. Thank you Sterling Strings!

Sterling Strings are Brilliant!

Sterling Strings were truly fantastic! This is a group with outstanding musicianship and such talent. Eric was wonderful to work with, and so support of our requests for the ceremony. We went through several postponements and the group were so accommodating and understanding each and every time. We couldn't have asked for a more professional, accomplished quartet to make our ceremony special. Thank you so much, Sterling Strings!

Perfection!

If I could summarize Sterling Strings in one word, it would be "PERFECTION"! They were everything I hoped they would be. As a classical musician who also loves Hip-Hop, I dreamed about having a classical and pop music portion of my wedding. It was amazing to find a group who was very capable of both, and boy did they deliver!! In addition, the DJ I hired was running extremely late and they even were able to step up and cover some of his responsibilities as well. I would highly recommend them for any event!!

Incredible!

These guys are straight up PROS with a capital P!

My wife and I hired the Sterling Strings to play our wedding and couldn’t be happier. Their vast repertoire of both classics and modern songs led to quite the lasting impression on our guests. From the thong song to Beethoven there is something for everyone. While wedding planning we always looked forward to anything to do with the Strings because of how fun they made it. Day of they were so nice to us and all the guests as well, taking my wife’s request to replay a song we had missed while taking photos prior to cocktail hour.

Can’t recommend this quartet enough!

Could not have chosen better

I first saw Sterling Strings at Fulton Station in NYC, knew immediately I would want them to be part of my wedding, when it came time.
Fast forward a year or so, they fulfilled my dreams of having a Quartet perform at my ceremony and the cocktail hour.
I love their original spin they put on oldies to classical to new age. I could not have asked for a better or nicer group of people to trust on our special day.
I corresponded with Eric and he was easy going and accommodating. The actual Quartet were lovely and we heard the best from our guests.
Thank you for making our day even more special!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
