Excellent!

The String Brothers was phenomenal to work with! Not only were they very responsive during the entire planning process but the pieces they played during our ceremony and cocktail hour were beautiful. For our ceremony, we chose several non traditional pieces and they were very accommodating with our requests. Our guests complimented the string quartet and jazz duo numerous times. We would highly recommended The String Brothers!!

The easiest decision for your wedding

Wow. It is extremely hard to write a review that encompasses everything about The String Brothers. They were phenomenal--- not only did they sound incredible but they were amazing to work with.
Leading up to the wedding they were sooo easy to work with. They are the most organized and responsive group. All responses were within 24 hours. They made the decisions so easy- they provided samples of their music and a list of songs. I knew I wanted traditional string music for the processional etc, then I wanted something really catchy for our exit. They completely delivered. The samples on their site and suggestions made it so seamless and easy to pick out our songs. I wanted something upbeat to exit to so I picked out 2 songs. When I spoke with Jim from String Brothers prior to our wedding he guided me through which song would be best with the instruments I picked.
Leading up to the wedding they made it so easy- I completed a quick and easy packet with my choices (based on listening to their wonderful samples) then had a conversation with Jim prior to the wedding based on what I selected.
The String Brothers were on time, organized, and professional which every bride wants.

Oh and the music sounded incredible!!! Thank you String Brothers for kicking off our ceremony and reception! you made it perfect!

Wedding at the Curtiss Hotel

My oldest daughter had her wedding this past Friday at the Curtiss Hotel in downtown Buffalo. We had contacted The String Brothers to play music for the ceremony and the cocktail hour immediately following. We had one gentlemen playing the violin and one on the piano. They were amazing. Tons of compliments. Would highly recommend this group.

PERFECT! Absolutely wonderful company to work with (easy with communication, highly responsive, professional, fair price) and so pleased with their performance for our wedding ceremony. A string trio played for our Catholic mass and were able to do a mix of the traditional songs along with a few more contemporary choices my husband and I had selected. I am not much for crying - but their music had tears coming as I walked down the aisle with my father. Highly recommend! Thank you for everything String Brothers!

The String Brothers were the perfect touch for our wedding ceremony. We hired a string trio to play a mix of traditional and unorthodox songs before and through our outdoor ceremony. Although my wife and I didn't get to hear everything they played beforehand, several of our guests remarked that it was the nicest wedding music they had ever heard. We especially appreciated their flexibility in learning two songs outside their catalog (including one Broadway song we had never heard a string arrangement of!) and playing them masterfully. Kevin also helped us to source a microphone and amplifier for our officiant and our vows. I would highly recommend these guys for a wedding or any similar event!

From the initial music consultation requesting a violinist for daughter's wedding at Delaware Park Rose Garden to my last minute request for a microphone.... the ease of working with String Bros. and Kevin was fabulous! Economical and the violinist was extremely talented and well prepared playing our selections as designated and perfectly! Arrived early and was all set up ready to go! ... one less thing to worry about
The music added an elegant touch to an already beautiful wedding.

We had a string trio at our wedding in Buffalo back in September. Kevin was very responsive throughout the whole process and provided recommendations when I had questions. Our guests truly enjoyed the string trio at the wedding. I would recommend The String Brothers if you're looking for musicians for your wedding!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
