    Bridgerton / Queen Charlotte vibes!

    We absolutely LOVED cello vida. They arrived early and stayed late, the worked well with our wedding coordinator, responded quickly to any questions we had and the prices were more than fair. Our guests RAVED about the string quartet. They played a range of music from different eras and even put together of two of our favorite songs by request. They also had a huge library of songs to choose from — a little something for everyone. There were no awkward pauses between songs, they played everything on our list and then some, seamlessly. They really set the Bridgerton / Queen Charlotte vibes for our day. It was so nice to hear the strings in the background of all our special moments. I will definitely hire them again for our future special events.

    Surprise Proposal

    I would recommend Cello Vida to anyone who wants to make their proposals or weddings special. The team was capable of learning any type of song I asked and never told me they "couldn't". They made my daughter's surprise proposal a moment that she will never forget! 10/10 stars!

    Simply Beautiful!

    My daughter and her husband-to-be wanted something timeless and classy to be played during their wedding ceremony and Cello Vida delivered. They have an extraordinary playlist but are also open to suggestions. The musicians were professional; they arrived and set up on time and most importantly, they are extremely talented.

    Worth the money!

    Christine did amazing coordinating with us for what we wanted for the big day. Everyone loved the strings instead of the typical Dj music being played for the ceremony and cocktail hour. They even played a favorite song of ours from Game of Thrones during cocktail hour! We loved it

    Cello Vida's reply:

    Thank you so much, Haley! We thoroughly enjoyed playing for your ceremony and cocktail hour. Game of Thrones is one of our favorites too!

    Magical Ceremony & Classy Cocktail Hour!

    Christina was very responsive and easy to coordinate with! They have an extensive sing selection, and still learned/arranged custom pieces for our ceremony. We had the cello/violin duet and they worked with an outside trumpeter. It was difficult to hold back tears while coming down the aisle, because they created a fairy tale ambiance I was not anticipate. We received many compliments on the cocktail hour music! Thank you Cello Vida for providing us an amazing soundtrack to remember the happiest day of our lives! :)

    Beautiful performance!

    The music was just beautiful! They were such a hit at my wedding! Everyone gave so many compliments. Also, they arrived early to be ready for scheduled time and played all the songs I requested in advance. Would highly recommend!!

    Cello Vida's reply:

    Thank you, Justine! It was such a pleasure working with you preparing for such an exciting day! I am very happy to hear that you enjoyed our music.

    Magnificent

    Simply magnificent. They learned a new song just for the wedding. My daughter rode her horse into ceremony during the song. The timing was perfect. By far the best and most attentive vendor we hired. They have our highest praise and thanks. Hire them over all others.

    Cello Vida's reply:

    Thank you, Jack. We had so much performing “The Magnificent Seven” for string quartet. We love welcoming and adding new song requests to our extensive collection.

    Fairytale moment!

    They made my ceremony feel like a princess fairytale. It was perfect. Brought my husband to tears!!! Not a dry eye in the crowd.

    Superb Private Concert

    There’s a lot that goes into preparing for that special day. You want everything perfect. Cello Vida helped make sure that was possible. From the music line-up to a last minute schedule change they were spot on. Oh ya, the music was over-the-top! Many thanks!!!!

    Beautiful ceremony music!

    We had the violin/cello duet play for our ceremony and it was beautiful. They played all the songs I requested and it truly set the mood. Cristina is professional, quick to respond, and a great musician. Great price for a great service. Thank you again!

    Wedding at the Arneson River Threatre

    I would highly recommend Cello Vida. Christina was very easy to work with and even accommodated me with a special song request. Guests at my son’s wedding commented on how they enjoyed the music of the cello and violin. Thank you Cello Vida!

    Christina and her team were amazing in bringing our dream wedding to a reality. Not only did the songs we select sound absolutely beautiful, but she was prepared with a speaker to enhance our ceremony music due to the water fall at our venue lowering the sound of our string duet. Christina is also rapidly responsive to any questions or concerns you may have which put our worries at ease. I would highly recommend Cello Vida as they will not disappoint!

    “Cello Vida performed for our wedding ceremony at Strawberry Pines in Poteet TX. We hired a violin & cello with amplification. This was an excellent choice because were able to hear the lovely acoustic sounds of the instruments all across the venue. The music was absolutely beautiful and and our guests enjoyed it. They were friendly and very responsive. We highly recommend Cello Vida!!”

    Beautiful music, they were wonderful musicians and self sufficient I did not need to direct them at all. They knew exactly where to be and what to do. I wish I could have had them play all night long.

    Thank you, Kristina! It truly was a beautiful wedding at one of my favorite wedding venues.

    I contracted Cello Vida to play at my wedding ceremony (pre-ceremony/actual ceremony), and they were absolutely wonderful.

    Not only did Christina arrange a piece specifically for me (from a song that meant a lot to me and my husband), but she was also kind and easy to work with. Our wedding was postponed due to hurricane Harvey, and Christina was so understanding and accommodating – she was immediately willing to push the date to make the process less stressful for us. Christina and Ryan played beautifully and definitely made me cry as I walked down the aisle, listening to their performance.

    Christina responds to texts, emails, and calls same-day. She composed the piece I requested in less than 48 hours, free of charge. She's also extremely professional and (obviously) talented. I have nothing but praise for Cello Vida and wholeheartedly recommend them for any event, especially wedding ceremonies.

    Cello Vida's reply:

    Olivia, I am soooo happy everything turned out wonderfully! It was a pleasure working with you, and thank you so much for the beautiful testimony! <3

    We hired Christina & Ryan to perform at our wedding ceremony and the cocktail hour following at Ring Mountain Event Center. All I can say is ‘WOW!’ Christina was very responsive and so easy to work with leading up to our event. They arrived promptly and provided top notch music that really made our day special. Cello Vida will be our go-to musicians for any future parties we have in the area. We could not thank them enough!!!

    Cello Vida's reply:

    Melissa, this makes my heart happy! Thank you so much for allowing us the opportunity to perform for your special day. We had so much fun!

    Rayn fired it up with his violin

    Ryan showed up on time and from there things just got better and better. His presence was subtle and his skills spoke volumes. He was able to set the perfect mood and had good song order given the playlist we requested. Wonderful performance and exceeded expectations!!

    Such a classy touch!

    We hired Cello Vida for our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour and they did fantastic. We choose them because they seemed most flexible in their hourly rates, had a less expensive travel fee and they had a good number of videos to help us get a feel for their services. They showed up on time and did a great job. Although I was too busy being dragged from one place to another to get to enjoy their performance, we received several compliments! I think it truly changed the dynamic of our ceremony by adding a really classy touch. Everyone got to enjoy the music during the cocktail hour. The only issue I had was getting responses to emails—it would take a few days to get a response and sometimes my emails would go completely unresponded to, which goes in hand with professionalism. Otherwise, I would absolutely recommend Cello Vida and would love to have another special event that would be worthy of a string quartet!

    Beautiful music

    We hired Christina as a solo cellist for our ceremony music, she did a great job and was able to play every song we asked for. We hired her pretty far out but when we got closer to our date I did have trouble with communication. Despite that the music really made our ceremony experience beautiful.
