  Incredible trio. Even better with quartet!

  The Bernstein Bard Trio (and the extra fiddle player) were exceptional. They were the first vendor we booked and they worked with us throughout our entire wedding planning process to make the event perfect. They went above and beyond to make sure that we had a set list that was just right. They are all incredibly talented musicians that helped our ceremony, cocktail hour, and dinner all sound exactly how we wanted. I really hope my wife and I have an opportunity to see them perform live again!

  Amazing band for our ceremony and cocktail hour!

  We were so glad we went with the Bernstein Bard Trio for our wedding ceremony and reception! Mark was great to work with throughout the planning process. He was very communicative, and sent us a list of suggestions for processional and recessional songs, but was also open to work with us on alternatives if we needed.
  
  Day of, they were perfect! It's clear they've done this many times before. All they needed was a power strip (which Mark let me know in advance), and they took care of everything else. We also had our ceremony and cocktail hour in two different areas of the same venue (a farm), so they prepped both areas in advance so they could quickly move from one to the other.
  
  Last but not least, they're a very talented group! Their music is beautiful and was perfect for our ceremony and then added perfect atmosphere to the cocktail hour. We'd gladly recommend them to anyone!

  Wonderful Experience

  The Bernstein Bard Trio was such a pleasure to work with, and a beautiful addition to our wedding. We hired them to play music during the ceremony, and we're so happy we did. They were very professional and easy to communicate with leading up to the event. They are extremely flexible and will work with you in selecting your music. In the midst of your wedding planning chaos, it will be a weight off your shoulders to know you are in good hands with them. All of our guests complimented how beautiful they sounded as well as the selection of songs they chose. They played our processional and recessional as well, and made the special moments even more special. Cannot recommend them highly enough!

  Fantastic band for our barn wedding

  It's a year later and wedding guests are STILL telling us how much they loved our band! The Bernstein Bard Trio played for our ceremony, cocktail hour, and then added 2 more members (fiddle & drums) and played for our reception, too! They were so easy to work with and provided the perfect atmosphere for our wedding. I was a bit worried because I didn't see any reviews from receptions, but they kept the dance floor full the whole night! Seriously, book them for all of your events!

  Warm and Easy

  I initially contracted the Bernstein Baird trio in the midst of the pandemic, which meant I actually had two potential dates pending the progress of the pandemic restrictions. In spite of this, they were flexible, warm, and wonderfully easy to work with. The musical arrangements contributed to an absolutely joyful atmosphere. I cannot recommend these gentlemen enough!

  Bernstein's Are Top Notch!

  The Bernstein Bard Trio is top-notch! Having them play during our ceremony and happy hour added an element that really elevated our wedding. Their smooth yet upbeat acoustics helped set the mood, and I can't tell you how many friends and family came up after our wedding and told us the Bernstein's was one of their favorite special touches to our wedding. They were also tremendously easy to work with and super accommodating when we needed to move our date due to COVID. I highly recommend them if you're looking for that little something extra that sets your wedding apart.

  Thank you Eric! Yes, those were some crazy times during covid, to be sure! I'm so happy we were able to reschedule and play for your wedding--it was our pleasure.

  Wonderful music!

  The Bernstein Bard Trio played for our ceremony and cocktail hour. Their music is beautiful, and was a perfect accompaniment as our guests gathered, as I walked down the aisle and as my Husband and I recessed after we tied the knot (to a lovely rendition of "all you need is love"). I don't know quite how to describe it, but their music sounding through our outdoor ceremony and cocktail hour was really magical.
  
  After our wedding, my husband surprised me with a serenade by the trio. It was so beautiful and romantic -- the Bernstein Bard trio will always hold a special place in our hearts!

  We wish that The Bernstein Bard Trio were part of our family- that's how much we loved them. We hired them for our 10/08 ceremony and Mark was a total delight to communicate with. He even went through the trouble of arranging a song for us that wasn't included on their list. Our guests were all obsessed (like, actually) with the band and they way that they played, and my husband and I are so glad that they were a part of our day. My biggest regret is not having someone videotape our ceremony... yeah for the vows, but also to hear the beautiful music of this trio again! Thank you, thank you, thank you Bernstein Bard!

  We hired Steve and company for our wedding ceremony. His communication skills are excellent and he asked great questions. The trio was accommodating and even learned how to play Aloe Blacc’s Wake Me Up for us! Truly talented and amazing guys. Our only regret was not able to hang with them after the ceremony since we had a bunch of bride and groom obligations to attend to. We highly recommend them!

  These guys were great! Professional and organized, all smiles and good vibes both before and during the wedding, learned two Hawaiian songs for our walk down the aisle, and great music that set a casual, breezy, and upbeat tone for our rehearsal dinner and cocktail hour. I think every guest commented on how wonderful the music was, but also how wonderful the band members were too. So glad we chose the Bernstein Bard Trio!!!

  We booked the Bernstein Bard Trio for our wedding. Steve offered advanced planning via Skype, given the distance to our locale, and he was a pleasure to work with. On the day of the wedding, the trio was a real highlight at our wedding, playing at our ceremony outdoors, under a tented patio during cocktail hour, and in yet a third location indoors for the ceremony. They were a hit with guests of all ages and so easy to work with. We highly recommend them. Check out their tunes on their website.

  So pleased that we went with the trio for our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour. Everyone said they were fantastic. They were very professional. They played everything we requested, indoors, outdoors. Very nice guys! Highly recommended.

  My husband and I are huge music lovers, and we hired the Bernstein Bard Trio (adding a violinist to make it a Quartet), as they came highly recommended by our event coordinator. We asked them to play classical music for the ceremony, bluegrass for the cocktail hour, and jazz for the reception. It was a tall order - and boy, they did not disappoint! The music was phenomenal; our guests were raving about it all night long. Additionally, they were very professional, friendly, and accommodating in the months leading up to the wedding. I would hire them again in a heartbeat, and I encourage anyone else to do the same. FANTASTIC job, thank you Bernstein Bard Trio!!!

  These guys were really great. The music was perfect for the ceremony and cocktail hour. They aren't cheap but I would definitely recommend them.
