String Poets are phenomenal!

The String Poets were really fantastic for my wedding. They played gorgeous ceremony music and fun cocktail music afterwards. Perfect for any setting and event! Radhi was wonderful to work with and they really do a great job. I 10/10 recommend!

String Poets played my rainy ceremony last weekend and I couldn't have been happier! They were kind and professional about the soggy and less then ideal circumstances. And they even learned beyonce for me!! Thanks guys!

I couldn't have been more pleased. These guys sounded just perfect! They played a non-traditional piece for me as I walked down the aisle - Dvorak's Humoresque No.7 as well as other pieces we selected for the reception. They are finely skilled musicians and I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a string trio (they also have a string quartet) for their event.

Solid wedding string group

We hired the string poets to play 3 songs for aisle walk. Of the 3 songs, 1 was new and 2 they already knew. The String Poets team did a great job communicating the entire time, and showed up with professionalism. They also did a great job on the new song they learned. Overall I'd highly recommend them!

Radhi is great to work with and was a pleasure! The string quartet was great and provided the music for our ceremony and cocktail hour. I am so happy that I decided on a string quartet for my formal wedding. It really made the wedding more formal and they are awesome! Thank you so much!

String Poets did a phenomenal job at our wedding. We used them for our ceremony and our cocktail hour. They were able to learn several songs for our processional and recessional - ranging from modern rock to Disney - and did fantastic arrangements for all of it. We also received numerous compliments from our guests about their cocktail hour serenading. Beyond their technical talent, they were very easy to work with and friendly. We highly recommend them.

Radhi was incredibly patient with me for the months leading up to my wedding as I decided which songs I wanted played. He was very helpful and flexible with the songs I did pick. I picked some songs that were not on their list but he didn't hesitate in telling me it could be done. The only thing I would recommend would be to send them a copy of your ceremony timeline. There were some times the music began a little late during the ceremony and ended as we just stood their awkwardly. Other than that, the music was beautiful.

We want to thank you for a superb performance during our wedding ceremony. Live music always adds a level of style and sophistication to any event and your group exceeded our expectations for the most important day of our lives. Thank you again for being a primary reason for the success of our big day.

They were so amazing. They worked with our request list and all of our guests loved them. I'm just sad I wasn't around for the cocktail hour to hear more of them.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.

I've had the privileged of working with String Poets on several occasions for the ceremony. They are wonderful to work with, professional, and add the special something to the ceremony for the couple. As an officiate, whenever I arrive at the ceremony and see String Poets dong the music I breath a sigh of relief knowing the music will be perfect.
