    Perfect Ceremony Music

    We hired a duo to play for our small ceremony at the Inn at Montchanin. They were very professional, familiar with our vendor and played everything perfectly. They sounded fantastic. Would highly recommend!!

    Wonderful Experience from Start to Finish

    The Wilmington String Ensemble was a joy to work with. From the very first time we asked for a quote, Kathleen was responsive and answered all of our questions. They contacted our pastor to get cues and made sure everything was in place before our wedding day. Their repertoire is massive and any song that you could want is on their list, from classical to modern. My wife and I selected a mix and we could not be happier with the performance. On the day of the wedding they arrived early to set up and confirm our plans. They were flexible with seating and easy to work with. Most importantly was the performance: truly exceptional and made our day extra special. We had multiple people come up to us after the ceremony and rehearsal to say how much they enjoyed the music. I cannot recommend WSE highly enough.

    Wilmington String Ensemble's reply:

    Dear John:
    Thank you so much for your review. You are very kind. It was wonderful working with you and Christina.
    Best wishes for a beautiful future!
