Beautiful and Professional

Two Rivers was so easy to work with during our wedding process, and they accommodated all of our requests. They were incredibly professional and helpful throughout the day. We had special requests/music sheets for our processional and they sounded perfect! I would highly recommend Two Rivers Chambers for your next event!!

Wonderful Quartet!

We hired Two Rivers for the ceremony music and the cocktail hour music. They did a wonderful job. They were required to sit in 2 separate locations - outside in the shade and then under a veranda. In both cases, the music was beautiful. They were so easy to work with and offered a large variety of music selections. You can't go wrong with Two Rivers.

So wonderful!

Our ceremony and cocktail hour went seamlessly and had such an incredible vibe thanks to the Two Rivers team and our quartet! Michael was fast to respond on email and on our quick planning call he understood the music vibe immediately. They nailed it the day of with feel good classics! I also appreciated that the team was able to do three specific song requests in our ceremony - it made it that much more special.

Thank you to the Two Rivers team!

Musical Dreamscape

What an incredible team to work with! Incredibly professional, and they sounded incredible. I had a specific moment in mind for my entrance within my aisle song and they worked with me directly to cooridnate and make sure it was everything I dreamed it would be. They also learned a new song for us and it sounded incredible. All the guests were blown away by them both during the ceremony and our cocktail hour - my only regret is that I didn't get to hear them more myself both before the ceremony and after!

Lovely to work with!

We hired Two Rivers Chamber Music after seeing them at a friend's wedding, and had them for our ceremony and cocktail hour. We wanted mostly modern and pop songs done as string covers, and they have a huge selection ranging from the classics to covers of Taylor Swift and Zelda. For the songs we requested that weren't already in their repertoire, they adapted them beautifully. The whole planning process really easy and stress-free. The music set such a beautiful tone for the ceremony and carried right through cocktail hour. We had multiple guests come up to us and comment on how much they loved the live music and the fun song covers. If you're considering a string ensemble for your wedding, I'd absolutely recommend Two Rivers. They're talented, professional, and just really lovely to work with.

Awesome experience with Two Rivers!

Two Rivers was an amazing addition to our wedding! They provided us plenty of options during the planning process regarding how many musicians we wanted and what songs we wanted them to play. And at the wedding, they certainly delivered! Our one regret is that we didn’t get to hear them more since they played during cocktail hour when my husband and I were taking pictures. But we did have them play our first dance and it was a great moment. I would highly recommend Two Rivers if you want string musicians at your next event.

So professional!

We decided to hire a string quartet relatively late and were very grateful Two Rivers was available on the date of our wedding. They were so easy to work with. They had a great repertoire of music to play for the prelude of our ceremony, and we provided the music for our two processional songs, which they executed flawlessly. They were so professional, communicative, and clearly know what they're doing, adapting on the fly to lengthen our processional songs since our walks took longer than expected! They definitely helped make our ceremony special.

Excellent service

We hired Two Rivers Chamber Music for our ceremony and cocktail hour and they were amazing. We opted for the full string amplification, and I highly recommend it, especially if you have an outdoor wedding. They were very accommodating for the music selections we wanted and very professional to work with.

Excellent!

We hired a string duo from Two Rivers Chamber music to play our wedding and they absolutely killed. They were at the venue early to warm up, sounded amazing, and I had several friends mentioned how much they loved the classical covers of pop songs. I would not hesitate to hire them again

Wonderful addition to our wedding

Two Rivers provided wonderful music for our wedding ceremony. They were professional and easy to work with throughout the whole process. We worked with them to choose a mix of classical favorites and string covers of modern songs, and they were flexible in allowing us as much or as little control over the song selection as we wanted. They were also happy to learn a song outside of their repertoire for our processional, which we were thrilled to hear. We would happily recommend them for your event!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.

Michael Polonchak and the entire team at Two Rivers Chamber Music have been a pleasure to work with over the past few weeks. Michael worked with a mutual client whose wedding I coordinated, and was extremely accommodating with last minute requests, such as switching from a trio to a quartet with only 48 hours notice. And what else can I say about the quartet that performed during the wedding ceremony and cocktail hour but WOW! Michael's right hand man in the field, Tommy Atkinson, was exactly what you need in a day-of contact, and the quartet swept the audience off their feet. I'm certain this won't be the last time I work with Two Rivers Chamber Music, and I would strongly recommend them to other coordinators and wedding couples looking for top-tier musicians at affordable prices.
