About Us:

String Theory Music is owned and operated by violinist Allison Marshall. What started out as the desire of a single violinist to share her love of music has turned into a network of professional musicians who have joined to do the same.

Allison puts her heart and soul into this business and absolutely loves what she does. She strives to think outside of the box when it comes to performances and music that is specially formulated for unique events.

All the musicians in our network are local and we only source the best of the best in Northeast Florida and South Georgia. Visit our website to see and hear more about what we offer and to get started on putting together a musical program to enhance the ambiance of your special day!

The perfect addition to your wedding day!

We booked a String Quartet for our wedding day through String Theory. Allison was such a pleasure to speak to and work with through the process. She didn’t hesitate to add songs I wanted that weren’t on the list for the ceremony music, such as “Sky Full of Stars” for my entrance and the “Jurassic Park” theme song for my husbands. We are very honored to have had her and the other musicians be a part of our wedding day, they were perfect. We will have beautiful memories of our music for years to come because of the performance of String Theory. They will add another part of love to your wedding day with their beautiful music! There is nothing else like the feeling that live instruments can add to your wedding day, it will give you goosebumps. Thank you String Theory from the bottom of our hearts

Fairytale Dream Come True

I was introduced by recommendation to Allison, the String Theory Music Coordinator, through one of the late owners of Castle Otttis in St. Augustine, FL. It was such a sincere pleasure working with her attributes of professionalism, humble partnership, prompt responsiveness, and genuine smile orchestrated amidst our fairytale dreams that were brought to life at our wedding. The violin and cello duet yielded echoes across time that our still heard in our cherished memories to date. Allison and her team were very accommodating in learning new Celtic music and recomposing a Vivaldi classic, in addition to the vast repertoire that was already available. String Theory is highly recommended for any venue that is ready to be enchanted with tunes that will make dreams come true!

Allison was very responsive and great to work with. The process was also very easy from the intake form to the day of, each step was so smooth. We will be recommending String Theory to all of our friends and family!

I love strings, and they know how to manipulate them in the most beautiful of ways!

I recently officiated at a wedding where String Theory Music provided the music during the ceremony. Not only is Alison a great musician, but she is a quick thinker, flexible, and easily accommodated last minute changes required by unforeseen circumstances. She has a great attitude and was wonderful to work with. I look forward to working with her in the future and would definitely recommend her services.
