    Beautiful String Trio Performance 💜

    Wow! They gave a beautiful performance at our wedding ceremony. I was surprised by how many guests mentioned it to me! They truly did a wonderful job. We are grateful that they were able to accommodate our song choices to give us a really special and magical wedding ceremony. They showed up early, dressed professionally, and were so kind as well. I booked with Sakira, and her communication beforehand made the booking process so easy. Would definitely hire again! Thank you!

    Most beautiful String Quartet I have ever heard! Couldn't recommend Charlotte Strings enough!!!!

    When choosing my music for my ceremony, I was looking for timeless, beautiful music! Oh wow, did Charlotte Strings execute my vision above and beyond! The pieces sounded so so beautiful! I will always remember hearing those beautiful pieces on my wedding day! The communication with them was so easy, as they were so sweet, professional, and supportive. They listened to exactly what I wanted and worked with me when I had a special request! They were a dream to work with!

    Highly Recommend

    Charlotte Strings was super professional, reasonably priced, flexible, and most importantly SOUNDED GOOD!

    Charlotte Strings was super response when we reached out. They have a wide variety of music for you to pick from and can select specific pieces on your behalf if you're overwhelmed with the options. They were willing to write a brand new arrangement of one of our favorite songs for us to exit the aisle to for a reasonable price and accommodating to our specific requests. They were the most reasonably priced and best sounding group we found in the area and offer a range of options and ensemble sizes to fit many budgets. My husband and I and several of our wedding guests are classically trained musicians and we were all impressed with their performance — Highly recommend!

    Highly recommended! Holiday Tenant Event

    I manage commercial real estate and hired Charlotte Strings at one of my properties in midtown for an office building holiday event for our tenants. Their team showed up on time, Sakira had excellent communication with me the weeks prior to the event and the music and performance were absolutely beautiful! Definitely recommend their services.

    Saved the day!

    Our daughter's wedding was relocated due to Hurricane Helene. We were supposed to be at Grandfather Golf and Country Club on October 12, but the area was flooded, without power or water. We were able to relocate to Charlotte in less than 10 days, but the original string quartet had to back out because roads were blocked. I reached out to Charlotte Strings in a panic. They responded immediately and gave us peace of mind. They were very professional and helped save the day!

    Charlotte Strings for Events's reply:

    Dear Kevin,

    It was our pleasure to provide services to you and your family on such a special day! We are very happy that we were able to ease the stress and provide music for your daughter's big day.

    Best wishes,

    If you’re looking for a talented and professional violin duo for your event, I highly recommend Charlotte Strings

    I can’t express enough how thrilled we were with Charlotte Strings at our wedding! From the moment they started playing, their beautiful melodies filled the air and created the perfect ambiance for our special day.

    The duo was incredibly professional and arrived on time, ready to go. They played a stunning selection of music that perfectly matched the mood of each moment—from the elegant prelude to the heartfelt ceremony music. Their talent is truly exceptional; their harmonies were flawless, and their passion for music shone through every note.

    Many of our guests commented on how lovely the music was, and several even asked for their contact information! Charlotte Strings truly elevated our wedding experience and made it feel even more magical.

    If you’re looking for a talented and professional violin duo for your event, I highly recommend Charlotte Strings. Thank you for helping to create such beautiful memories on our special day!

    Winter Wedding

    Charlotte strings were a joy to work with! They had an extensive catalog of songs to choose from, both classics and newer songs (think bridgerton). They were easy to communicate with and we would recommend them to anyone else. We loved the ambiance they added to our wedding ceremony!

    Charlotte Strings for Events's reply:

    Holiday party

    The musicians were excellent. They played several sets of holiday and pop titles for our corporate Holiday party. Everyone commented on the music and it was obvious how much the strings added to the overall enjoyment of the cocktail reception. The Charlotte Strings were an asset to the overall success of our event.

    They were the best!

    The musicians provided such a wonderful tone to our wedding ceremony. The church was filled with the most beautiful music as for our guests. When we were gathering to line up and walk down, I teared up listening to the Charlotte Strings play a rendition of Make You Feel My Love as my best friends walked before me, and I caught a glimpse of my groom at the altar. It was like a dream.
    Sakira was so friendly and patient with all of my questions. Infinite thanks for playing at our wedding ceremony!!

    50th Wedding Anniversary

    The string group was just what we were looking. We hired the Charlotte Strings quartet for my parent's 50th wedding anniversary celebration. Everyone enjoyed their music. My niece said she didn't know violins could sound like that! They played string quartet covers of everyone's favorite songs. As a special treat my dad asked if they could play My Girl and he dedicated it to my mom as they danced away, not a dry eye in the room. Great job Charlotte Strings you were a joy to work with.

    Charlotte Strings for Events's reply:

    Dear Susie,

    It was an honor to provide music services for your parent's Golden Anniversary celebration. We appreciate the opportunity to serve you and your family on such a special occasion!

    Amazing experience

    We loved working with Sakira and her Charlotte Strings team to put together the music for my son and daughter in law's wedding ceremony and cocktail hour reception. We were able to plan all of the details with a few simple phone calls and emails, this was important to me as we live out of state. The Charlotte Strings were on point with every entrance and every note, and they were simply perfect. I recommend them without any hesitation.

    Charlotte Strings were great! The booking process and then the planning of our ceremony and cocktail hour music was one of the simplest aspects of our wedding. We saw them perform at a candlelight show, and we knew right then and there that we had to have them at our wedding! They are true professionals and their music is so varied and beautiful. We kept hearing from all our guests what a great touch the string quartet was, everyone loved their music.

    Great music

    The ceremony music was a gift from my parents and the Charlotte Strings came highly recommended by our wedding planner.

    When we first started planning our wedding we did not think we would hire musicians for our wedding ceremony, but boy are we glad we decided to do it!!!!

    The Charlotte Strings added so much to the overall feel of our ceremony, and our guests loved them during cocktail hour as well. Thank you Sakira and team for your beautiful music.

    Charlotte strings are amazing! No one better!

    Charlotte Strings played for our wedding ceremony and it was nothing short of exquisite! We had some unusual requests and music choices, but their arrangements were spectacular! All the music flowed seamlessly and tastefully together throughout the event. They have a vast repertoire of classical and modern songs, and they were able to make suggestions when we were unsure of our decisions. Everyone was so impressed. Sakira from Charlotte Strings was incredible to work with and very responsive to our (many) requests and messages. Can't recommend them enough!

    Absolutely Perfect

    We hired Charlotte Strings as a quartet for our wedding ceremony from initial contact to the day of, everything was absolutely perfect! We originally were supposed to be married in 2020 but due to COVID had to push it out to 2022. Sakira worked with us on everything we wanted and was so accommodating and kind. She really made our vision come to life! The quartet was so professional and the music they played was flawless! Highly recommend!

    Outstanding experience!

    Such a class act and so helpful throughout the planning process.
    Wedding would not have been nearly as enjoyable without this string trio.
    Everyone loved them.

    If you are considering a string quartet for your wedding ceremony, you can't do any better than Charlotte Strings.

The expanse of their repertoire, their flexibility in tailoring their performance to our desires and the quality of their performance was all that we could have asked for.

    We loved them!

    There aren't enough words to describe how beautiful and perfect their music is. They made my daughter's wedding perfectly magical and the cocktail hour was so lively and fun. I will forever remember the sound of the violins and the cello as we all walked down, it gives me chills just thinking about it!!! If you are on the fence about whether or not your event needs the Charlotte Strings...let me tell you, yes it does! They were outstanding in every sense of the word!

    My Daughter’s Wedding Morning Glory Farm

    Having the trio was absolutely the perfect touch to my daughter’s wedding ceremony and cocktail hour. The music was beautifully played. The staff was extremely professional in every aspect from response time, ease and simplicity of the contract, pricing and suggestions for music selections. Several guests commented on the talent of the musicians and what a nice touch.
    I also have to add that my daughter initially did not have an opinion either way on having strings and left it up to me to make the decision. Needless to say, she loved it and was happy the trio was hired.
    Our family highly recommends Charlotte Strings and will definitely use their services in the future.

    Perfect music for our wedding

    We kept our wedding planning simple, geared towards one goal: we wanted it to be romantic and memorable. I knew I wanted string musicians for our wedding ceremony as I've seen in the movies :-) and we were so lucky to have found the Charlotte Strings and that they were available for our date. They were a hit! I loved walking down the aisle to their gorgeous music, and my guests loved them during the cocktail hour. Worth every penny! Thank you for your talents and for making our wedding ceremony so romantic and beautiful.

    The strings we hired were just perfect. They provided an element of classiness and fun which is exactly what I wanted for our wedding. We hired a string quartet and they played while my guests arrived, they provided music for my wedding ceremony, and our cocktail hour. Sakira was very friendly and prompt and she made the entire process very easy.

    Absolutely wonderful!!!

    We had the honor of the Charlotte Strings Quartet to play at the prelude to our daughter’s wedding and during the ceremony. This group is incredibly talented. Their music is absolutely beautiful. Large variety of music to choose from. Our guests were mesmerized and sung their praises of how they could listen to them for hours. 100% performance and value. Highly recommend if you are looking for a special addition to your event!

    Beautiful job!

    I am still in awe of their music. We hired a string quartet to play at our wedding and they played music before our ceremony, during, and after. A special highlight for me was their rendition of Over the Rainbow which was my late nana's favorite song. The sound of the strings was truly something special. Thank you Charlotte Strings for your beautiful music.

    Beautiful music

    We met Charlotte Strings at the PWG wedding show in Charlotte. My fiance and I fell immediately in love with their beautiful, harmonious sound and knew we had to have them at our ceremony and cocktail out. It was a dream of mine to have live, classical music playing as I walked down the aisle and now I will have it. Sakira was very professional and we handled the details contracts and payments easily via email and online. She is very detail oriented and you receive a lot of information. I enjoy working with vendors who are detail oriented and careful with details because that is how I am. I am really looking forward to our partnership.

    Highly recommended

    The talented musicians of the Charlotte Strings provided a prelude, wedding ceremony music, and our cocktail hour music. I gave Sakira a list of songs that I liked and she took care of everything else.

    These guys knew exactly what they were doing! They were highly professional and played every song beautifully with no need of cues. They took care of all the timings without adding any stress on my part (BIG PLUS!)

    We chose music that was varied including pop songs that were meaningful to Ben and I. Our guests commented over and over again how much they loved the string trio.

    They were professional, talented, and very helpful whenever I had a question. I highly recommend their services.

    Charlotte Strings for Events's reply:

    Charlotte Strings were amazing!

    Hiring the Charlotte Strings was one of the best decisions we made. The string quartet played while the guests were arriving and getting seated, and although I was not able to be out there until I walked down, I was able to listen to their beautiful music and it built up my emotions until I walked down and saw my soon to be husband. They learned a new song for me to walk down the aisle and it was that much more meaningful!

    My husband and I could not be happier with their services from the moment we signed with them until the day of the event. Sakira was a pleasure to work with and answered all my questions.

    Best decision we made!! Got lots of compliments and their music made our ceremony feel romantic and very special.

    Charlotte Strings for Events's reply:

    Dear Erin,

    Charlotte Strings was wonderful throughout our entire wedding planning process. Sakira was very responsive to every email and timely with the contract and details of how everything worked. The Charlotte Strings was helpful with the music selections and flexible with their times. They were very professional, showed up on time and sounded incredible. We would HIGHLy recommend them to anyone planning a wedding ceremony who wants beautiful music to set the tone of the ceremony. Thank you to Sakira for her helpfulness and answers to any questions we had. We hired the string trio and it was perfect for the Belk Chapel at Queen's University.

    We worked with Sakira and had a strings trio for ceremony. They played beautifully and kept the flow of the processional and recessional perfectly. Communication leading up to the wedding date was perfect (huge plus in my book!) and they were extremely professional and kind through the wedding day. We highly recommend them and will be referring more couples to them in the future.

Sakira was prompt with all communication and was also incredibly knowledgeable and helpful. When the day came, everything was wonderful!

Thank you, Charlotte Strings for Events!

    We had such a great experience with the Charlotte Strings I simply cannot say enough great things about them! My husband and I hired the Charlotte Strings quartet about 7 months out for my daughter's wedding ceremony in January. They came highly recommended by our venue, our day of coordinator, AND our DJ. The string quartet played music for our guests as they arrived, they played music for the wedding ceremony from the entrances to the exit music, and we also hired them to play the cocktail hour. Sakira and her team were reliable, professional, and very easy to work with from start to finish. My daughter had a short list of "must haves" and the Charlotte Strings musicians accommodated her wishes with ease. Sakira is very knowledgeable and provided many suggestions to create the perfect mix of songs that was right for my daughter and her fiance.
    On the day of the event we were all very busy, but time literally stood still when the string music began to play and we all started to walk down. As the mother of the bride you really want your daughter's day to be beautiful, and you want your guests to have a great time. Charlotte Strings helped us accomplish just that. Our guests have not missed an opportunity to tell us what an elegant and amazing touch the string quartet was. These musicians are SO incredibly talented.
    If you are on the fence on wether or not to hire live string music for your event, I'm telling you do not hesitate and DO IT! You can thank me later! The Charlotte Strings truly exceeded our expectations in every way and we highly recommend them.

    Charlotte Strings for Events's reply:

    Dear Elizabeth,

    Thank you so much for such a great review! We truly enjoyed performing at your daughter's wedding. It was a lovely and beautiful event!

    Best wishes,

    Sakira

    These musicians are the BEST! Sakira was very responsive and communicative throughout the entire process, including helping us pick perfect music for our ceremony. She also had excellent suggestions, making the process very easy. They have a ton of music to work from, everything from the standard classical stuff to Beatles, U2, and Coldplay. The musicians showed up early, looked awesome, and SOUNDED AMAZING. Seriously, these are full-time professional musicians with the Charlotte Symphony; this is the REAL DEAL!! And surprisingly, very affordable. Our guests were raving for weeks about these musicians and the touch of class they added to our wedding.

    Charlotte Strings for Events's reply:

    Dear Claus,

    Thank you so much for such a glowing review! We are truly humbled by your kind words. Congratulations!

    Charlotte Strings is amazing to work with for weddings. All of them play for the Charlotte Symphony and the professionalism and talent really show. They were always quick with responses when I had a question and worked with me on the repertoire I wanted to make sure I had exactly what I wanted for the ceremony. They also had a great selection for me to choose from for the cocktail hour too. Our guests were so impressed and tons of people asked me for referrals after. Charlotte Strings took my wedding to the next level by adding such a classy and elegant touch!

    Dear Jenn,

    Thank you so much of your kind words! We had a great time working with you to create the perfect music program for your wedding day. Congratulations!

    Fantastic, fantastic !! I was so impressed with Charlotte strings for Events, Sakira was so responsive and helpful in the planning process. I wanted a particular song as I walked down the aisle and they played it absolutely beautifully on the day! I am so very glad that I chose such amazingly talented musicians to play at our wedding. My only regret is that I did not book them for the reception part as well! I highly recommend them to all!

    If you want a very special, and not the usual music for your wedding this is the perfect choice. Wide variety of songs and choices of music. It makes you feel like you are in another place and time. I would recommend Charlotte Strings to anyone.

    Dear Charlotte Strings for Events,

    The newlyweds and I (MOB) want to thank you for helping to make their Ballantyne Hotel Garden wedding ceremony extra special. The strings music was perfect from beginning to end! We have had so many compliments from family and friends regarding the selections and your talented delivery of each piece.

    Some direct quotes from guests, "I thought the strings group was just amazing;. What a wonderful job. Beautiful. Not too soft or too loud. Loved the selections. Just right..."

    Weddings, as you all well know, are such emotional times and it becomes difficult for the immediate family and wedding party to be completely mindful of all the many details. We are truly looking forward to the videographer completing his finished product in order to experience the sights and lovely sounds once again.

    Even though the bride and groom had a first look, the groom shared that when his bride walked down the pathway/aisle to "such a beautiful song" he was very moved. (I know I was too)

    Thank you for your patience and guidance throughout the months as we planned. Also, once again, thank you for helping to make an incredible day even more wonderful.

    Sincerely,
    Shirley (MOB)
    October Wedding 2016

    My fiance(now husband) and I had our wedding ceremony music picked out through a family friend almost immediately after being engaged. That vendor ended up canceling on us two weeks before the wedding! Of course, I was completely freaking out, I didn't know what to do. After reading reviews and listening to their sample music, I called Strings For Events and from that point on everything was perfect! Sakira was so easy to get in touch with and made my job super easy! I gave her songs that I would like and she did the rest of the work! The music at the ceremony was absolutely beautiful and my husband and I are so very happy that we chose Strings For Events, we wish we would have went with them from the beginning! Thanks for making our ceremony perfect!

    I hired a violinist to play for my best friend's wedding and it was perfect! I had her choose all of the music (besides the bride's entrance song). Everything she played was beautiful. She was professional, quick to respond to emails, and everyone commented on how more intimate it made the wedding feel. I would highly recommend Charlotte Strings for Events to anyone!

    If you want live music at your ceremony, reception, etc.-Charlotte Strings is the way to go. Very stressfree and easy to deal with through the entire process. Upon booking, I received a detailed email with all items they needed back from us. We were able to listen to music samples on their website. Emailed the Strings team back our selections, the number of guests that would be walking down the aisle to the music, the time of our ceremony and how many musicians we needed-and we were done! The Strings team were on time, played all of the songs that we requested and were excellent!

I was nervous about not ever meeting them, but everything was perfect on the day of the wedding! They have a wonderful selection of music and are truly professionals. I cannot wait to see our ceremony video to hear them play over and over again- simply beautiful!

    Charlotte Strings for Events was a beautiful addition to our wedding ceremony. The string trio sounded amazing. We worked with Sakira. She was very easy to communicate with and was also extremely helpful in the music selection process. The musicians arrived promptly on wedding day and the music was beautiful! Charlotte Strings also played a special recessional pieces for us, "That's Amore." They learned the music specifically for our wedding. It was such a great ending to beautiful ceremony. Charlotte Strings for Events are very professional and I would highly recommend them for any occasion you are celebrating!

    Charlotte Strings added to the exact ambience we were trying to create. We asked for a few particular songs for the prelude and they filled in the half hour with exactly what we had in mind. And the ceremony music was perfect also, timed well throughout the program and never overpowered anyone speaking. They are very talented musicians and very reasonably priced. We received quite a bit of positive feedback from guests.

    Charlotte Strings for Events were fantastic to work with. First of all they were kind enough to meet with me in person prior and after signing with them, this was very important to me. They guided me through the entire music selection process and made everything very easy and fun. I changed my mind a couple of times and it was never an issue. I always dreamed of walking down the aisle to live violin music, and my dream came true! It was SO romantic and my guests commented on what a nice touch Charlotte Strings were. Booking them was one of the best decisions we made. We hired a violin duo and we were incredibly satisfied with their work, the price, and how they performed. I will recommend them to all my newly engaged friends.

    My mom hired the Charlotte Strings to play pre-ceremony, ceremony, and cocktail hour music for my wedding (we had a string quartet). They were professional, affordable, and their performance was timed absolutely to perfection. My husband and I chose a mix of classical and contemporary songs, and they did such a fabulous job. Sakira was very attentive and she was always happy to answer ALL of my questions. They came highly recommended by my coordinator and she was absolutely right! Thank you for your beautiful music.

    I hired a violin duo and the music was beautiful, it definitely set a romantic ambiance for my wedding ceremony.

    The event coordinator sent a sample CD and detailed information on their policies prior to any payment or signing of contract. She was quick to respond to any questions or concerns I had during the planning process.

    My wedding was planned to be outdoors, but unfortunately had to be moved under an enclosed tent due to a storm. The violin duo was very flexible in waiting out my delay and re-setting up in the new designated space.

    From the moment I contacted this company, they were nothing but professional and kind. I told them SPECIFICALLY what I wanted and they worked an affordable price and delivered EXCELLENT service! I had NO complaints from Charlotte Strings. Sakira was exceptional and the music when my best friend walked down the aisle was a tear dropper. I researched a TON of companies for her special day and this company was the ONLY one I had a great feeling about and I was correct. I would recommend ANYONE to this company. You will be nothing less than exceptionally pleased.

    I had done a lot of looking around for musicians for our wedding, but had not had very much luck. Either they were too expensive, or didn't offer the type of instruments we wanted. I'm so happy I came across Charlotte Strings for Events. We could have two violins, which was what we were hoping for, and the pricing was phenomenal. All of my emails were answered very promptly, and everything was handled in a very professional manner. Before the wedding, the music was piped into the room I was getting ready in, and it was so beautiful. I definitely recommend Charlotte Strings for Events!

    Loved my cocktail hour string quartet!

    I am a huge Beyonce fan, and it was so fun that the string quartet could incorporate her music into the cocktail hour music. It sounded so great!

    Enjoyed very much working with Charlotte Strings. Professional, a very helpful website with samples of their music, and most of all, beautiful music for my daughter's wedding.

    Thank you very much for your kind words Margaret! It was lovely working with you to make Kaitlyn and Blake's wedding day beautiful and extra special. Many blessings to you, and to the newlyweds!

    The ceremony musicians seemed a little expensive but they were a wonderful addition to the wedding ceremony. We enjoyed the ambiance they created both before and during our wedding.
