SUMMIT Strings is a group of wedding musicians based in West Jefferson, North Carolina. Comprised of talented musicians, this group of professionals complements each event with their style and positive atmosphere. The musicians can form string duos, trios, and quartets to accompany wedding events. Soloist performances are also available through this adaptable group. Regardless of how many musicians are required, the band will strive to craft a custom song list and performance that is suitable for each special occasion.
Services Offered
In order to provide convenience for couples, officiants, and other wedding-day attendees, the group of artists can supply wireless microphones for couples and additional members of the wedding party. SUMMIT Strings can provide ceremony and cocktail-hour music that will blend well into the background of any event. The performers have the ability to learn new songs, which enables couples to request specific pieces to be played during their celebration. However, the band's vast repertoire already includes an array of classical compositions, movie soundtracks, hymns, contemporary pop tunes, and more. The following instruments can be played by the musicians in this ensemble:
Summit Strings were the best for my daughter’s wedding.
Summit Strings – quartet played at my daughter’s wedding in April 2019 at Sorella Farms.
The string quartet played 30 minutes before the wedding – during the wedding and during the cocktail hour after the wedding while the family was getting pictures taken. Steve was wonderful to work with before the wedding and the whole quartet sounded wonderful. The day was cool – 58 degrees – and they had to keep tuning for the beautiful music. The reason we chose Summit Strings was because they had a beautiful and complete music list. From classical to more contemporary music – my daughter was able to choose music that she wanted to hear during her special day. They played “What a Wonderful World” as the family and friends came down the aisle and “A Thousand Years” as my daughter walked down the aisle. It was a magical moment – I will never forget. Summit Strings was an integral part of making the day beautiful and memorable – and I would hire them again for any occasion.

Couldn't have asked for better!
I discovered Summit Strings at a wedding I was at last fall and immediately knew they had to be a part of my special day. They assisted me with deciding on the perfect prelude music, the traditional bridal march music, and all the small details. Our wedding wouldn't have been the same without Steve.

I am a repeat customer
Summit Strings has played several events for myself, my family and friends over the last 3 years. Indoors and outdoors. From parties, serenades and individually commissioned performances to weddings ( their most popular service ).
Every time they have played for me I was impressed by their musicianship, professionalism and versatility. They enjoy
what they do and it really shows.
Their repertoire is wide ranging : from pop tunes, to the traditional and intensely classical ( take a look at the web site www.summitstrings.com ). They can accommodate almost any request -- since so many of these numbers they do so often, the music comes out well-rehearsed, articulate and in perfect tune.
At venues large and small, they do their own sound setup with their own equipment. For outdoor settings they can make the music carry clean and legible across a large crowd, yet can tailor their acoustics to fit into the smallest spaces where intimacy is called for.
Of special note is the group’s leader and organizer Steve Holman, who manages to bring together the best musicians from around the Piedmont and welds them into a cohesive unit whose sound rivals some of the most well-known chamber groups here in the south. As an event organizer you will really appreciate that he is able to muster all this talent and, once arrangements have been made, deliver it on time and on schedule, for the previously agreed-upon price ( which is surprisingly reasonable ).
From my experiences with Summit Strings I believe they will bring good vibes to your event, enhance its’ effectiveness, and leave you with good memories.
