    Professional and Talented

    Marie performed at my wedding ceremony and cocktail hour. She plays the violin and piano keyboard and is very talented. She has been consistent in communication with me since I found her online. She was responsive, professional and caring. She made suggestions what to add and I appreciated her suggestions and incorporated them. The music was so beautiful I was overwhelmed with emotion. She is incredibly talented and has fair rates. I couldn’t be happier to have her play on my wedding day! I highly recommend her!

    MAS Music's reply:

    Thank you so much for your kind words and thanks again for inviting us to be a part of your special day!

    Can't recommend enough!

    Marie Stack and the rest of the musical trio who played our ceremony and cocktail hour were fantastic. We opted for:
    Violin, flute and keyboard trio for the ceremony
    Sax, keyboard and drums trio for the cocktail hour

    The music was amazing, all the communication beforehand and day of was prompt and proactive, and Marie even coordinated with one of our friends who is a singer to collaborate on two numbers.

    Highly recommend—you won't be disappointed!

    Book them! You won't regret it!

    When you book Marie, you're booking someone that is invested in making your day special. Marie took her time helping me pick the best songs for my event. She was super communicative and pleasant. When I struggled to find what songs to pick, she gave me great options. She was on time and did such an amazing job with my ceremony music. It made the day even more special! I will be booking again in the future!l

    Great Musicians!

    M.A.S. Music was absolutely great! We hired a string trio for our ceremony and cocktail hour. They were on time, they had no issues playing each song we selected (which was all modern music), they were polite and most importantly the music sounded great! We would without a doubt hire them again!

    Amazing! Highly Recommend!

    We worked with Marie and her team for ceremony music for our wedding reception at a Catholic church in Fire Island, New York.
    From our first phone call with Marie, it was clear we were in great hands. Marie was extremely flexible, knowledgeable, and eager to learn how she could help us on our special day. This was particularly impressive as our wedding required extensive travel logistics to Fire Island. Marie was able to help us figure out the best way to structure music for the entire ceremony, agree to every musical request we had which included several new musical arrangements and even offered to bring a keyboard to our church.
    As we dealt with unexpected challenges, such as a change in priest and cantor, Marie offered help and a solution at every turn. For our ceremony, Marie and MAS music played all the arrangements we discussed to perfection and we constantly heard compliments throughout the day about our string quartet for our ceremony. We 1000% recommend Marie to any wedding couples looking for ceremony music, especially those getting married in the Catholic church.

    5-star service!

    Marie and her string quartet team provided A+ service in our wedding planning and at our actual wedding. She was so helpful during our planning of our procession and recession. She gave us many ideas of song choices for us to pick from – both classic and modern options. We loved her so much that we also hired her as a solo keyboardist to continue playing music at our cocktail hour. My wife and I have nothing but positive compliments for her services. We even requested if Marie’s string quartet could play an older, classic Chinese song during our ceremony. The song has sentimental importance for my parents since it was their wedding song. I thought it was a long shot since there might be sheet music already done—but guess what? Marie came through with our special request! Marie and her team were definitely a hidden gem that we could not have been happier to have found! With the live music, she definitely made my wedding more magical!

    Highly recommend Marie and her musical gifts!

    Amazing New Years Ever Ceremony Music

    I would give Marie @ MAS music a 12/12 if I could! Marie was a pleasure to work with- very responsive to e-mails, extremely professional and most importantly- never once did she say no. I asked her for a lot of different songs and scenarios- and she was truly a vital piece to my wedding. She wanted to make my dreams come true. She didn't treat me like a customer, she treated me almost as a friend who wanted to make my experience with her fantastic.

    I would recommend her to anyone. What a value!!!

    The Best Music Vendor

    I hired MAS music last minute to play for my ceremony and cocktail hour. Marie was unable to play personally, but she sent 3 people from her band.
    Marie was honestly the easiest vendor to work with. She was super responsive and GREAT suggestions.
    Her band learned a special song for our ceremony, and killed it during cocktail hour playing jazz at the perfect volume-level.
    The biggest surprise was when I was at the "sweetheart table" and Marie appeared out of nowhere to make sure that everything went smoothly.
    Thats how you she is committed to our clients!

    Thanks for everything!

    Marie Stack and her crew did an absolutely phenomenal job at our wedding. We had a duo, violin and keyboard for our ceremony music. It was absolutely beautiful! I truly could not thank them enough. We highly recommend M.A.S Music as a professional and talented music vendor.

    Amazing cannot begin to describe Marie. I found Marie a month or more before my wedding and she delivered everything we wanted and even more than expected. We had some odd requests but nothing was odd to her. From playing a thousand years while walking down the aisle, to the star wars theme as the recessional song. She even played the game if thrones theme!!! Watching the video from our guests arriving, she once again delivered! Don’t bother looking anywhere else!

    My husband and I are happy we found Marie. She is a professional, easy to work with and when we met in person, it was even better. It was completely stress free and she did mention that’s how a wedding day should be for the bride and groom, she also has experience with weddings. Before we found Marie I spoke with other musicians on the phone and some were picky and a little demanding. That’s not something I wanted to deal with as a bride so we were lucky we got to work with Marie.

    Marie tried to coordinate the timing of the music with my priest before the ceremony. I would not have thought of that and during your own wedding you rely on professionals. Marie and her string trio played beautiful music!! It added more elegance and intimacy to our wedding, which is what we wanted, and to personalized our music during cocktail hour.

    On the list of wants my husband and I had for our wedding, music was at the top and having a string trio was a decision we were happy with. I only wish I could have had them for longer! They played all of the songs we requested no matter the decade or genre and without judgement. It was great to work with Marie, she is very efficient, friendly and pretty passionate about music. She shared in our excitement and willingness to try our different range of songs and we were excited to hear them at our wedding. The trio arrived early and came prepared. Marie was always responsive and an easy communicator.

    Marie is gracious, she offered to park a little outside of the venue parking lot to let us save a parking permit. Then on our wedding day it rained. The trio was prepared for all weather and for anything including during the wedding, and I never heard a word about it. Very classy. She was truly someone who knows her music and how to treat a bride and groom...without stress, and was upfront about all the costs. Marie Stack/M.A.S Music was a critical part of our wedding and we are grateful.

    We booked Marie only a few weeks before our ceremony and were so pleased with our choice. The keyboard/violin combination was a wonderful addition to our ceremony and cocktail hour. Marie was exceptionally responsive and helpful throughout the process and had no complaints about performing outdoors in early November. We are so thankful Marie was flexible about the weather requirements and she put us at ease even though we weren't sure whether our ceremony would be indoors or outdoors until the very last minute. Though Marie is based in Brooklyn she never had any hesitation coming out to our venue on the North Fork of Long Island. Marie and Bella were wonderful as were the musical selections. We highly recommend the talented performers of M.A.S. Music!

    I had my wedding on September 17, 2016, Marie was a pleasure to work with. She was very professional and friendly at the same time. She took her time to meet my now husband and I and listened to our story and preferences to make our wedding day very special. She also replied to our messages in a very timely manner and made the process in booking her team very easy. Definitely recommend. Thank you so much Marie!

    Sincerely,
    Sabrina H.

    We hired M.A.S. Music to provide a trio of musicians for our wedding. Marie was an absolute dream to work with! She and her crew were kind, professional and talented. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Marie was so helpful and responsive in the planning process...a complete joy to work with. I knew she was perfect for our wedding as soon as I met her and would highly recommend M.A.S. for your event!!!

    Marie is amazing! Marie provided violin and guitar services for my wedding last month on Fire Island. Prior to the event Marie was SUPER easy to get in touch with and even learned two songs for our event. All of my guests raved about the music and my favorite part was the fact she learned "I Want It That Way" from the Backstreet Boys ( I am a huge BSB fan) from the recessional. My only regret is that I wish I could have heard all of it! Thanks again Marie !

    I recently used Marie Stack to play my wedding ceremony. We used the violin and guitar duo and couldn't be happier. It added a special quality to our ceremony that couldn't be accomplished with recorded music. Marie was extremely helpful during the planning process as always very quick to respond to emails. Their playing during the ceremony was beautiful; I couldn't ask for anything more!

    I hired Marie for to play violin and trumpet at our ceremony and piano at our cocktail hour and could not be more pleased!! She is a complete pleasure to work with. Responsive, professional and kind, I knew I was in great hands with Marie. And, of course, she is amazing musician. Not only that, she was so excited for us too! It was so nice having her there the day of the wedding, and may guests told me they enjoyed it as well! Lastly, she is very affordable. Live music was something I wanted for our ceremony and cocktail hour but was not sure we would be able to fit in our budget. Marie made it happen!

    Marie Stack and her crew did an absolutely phenomenal job at our wedding this past September. We had a three piece, violin, keyboard and cello, for our ceremony music and cocktail hour. Aside from how the florals turned out this was hands down my favorite part of the wedding. Marie worked with me on music choices and gave great suggestions. She played special songs to us and it was beautiful, definitely added a magical element to the event. I also have to say, we had bad weather which caused the musicians to have to move inside and out multiple times and they did not utter one complaint (while some vendors most definitely did!) moving their instruments, anticipating what would happen next. I truly could not thank them enough. We highly recommend M.A.S Music as a professional and talented music vendor and hope we can use them for other events in the future.

    We recently had a M.A.S. Music string duo play at our beach wedding and we could not have been more pleased with their amazing performance! Marie was super responsive and easy to work with from the beginning. She offered us suggestions of songs, and was even able to include a special request which was not in their usual repertoire! We received many compliments from guests about our lovely string duo. We highly recommend M.A.S Music to anyone looking for an instrument addition to their wedding!

    Marie is a true pleasure to work with! She's well versed in both traditional & contemporary music and had multiple ways to play each of my songs. The MAS website is super helpful and meeting with Marie in person makes the experience even better! Couldn't have asked for a more responsive, enthusiastic and kind vendor.

    I was so thrilled when I found Marie Stack! She is a kind, courteous, fabulous and professional person to work with and she really delivered! She and her string quartet played at my wedding cocktail hour a few weeks ago and played from her contemporary music list. It was one thing I really wanted at my wedding, and they were excellent. Marie is also on top of her correspondence, and never once made me feel like she forgot about me--like so many wedding vendors do. Received many compliments. My only regret is that I didn't hear more of them. They were superb and my husband and I were extremely satisfied. Kudos to Marie and her musicians. If I ever have an event that needs music, I would absolutely book them again. So, so good! Check out her Viva La Vida by Coldplay on youtube. It sounds even better in person!

    Marie was a pleasure to work with throughout my wedding planning. She was always quick to respond and made the process completely stress free. She played solo violin during our ceremony and it was perfect! We're very happy with our decision to have Marie play at our ceremony and would definitely recommend her!

    I cannot say how happy and pleased I was to work with Marie. We used M.A.S. Music for our ceremony music as well as our cocktail hour. At the church we had a string quartet. They were in touch with the music director a few weeks prior to the wedding to coordinate all of their music. It was so beautiful! As for the cocktail hour we had a jazz quartet playing which sounded great! I would HIGHLY recommend M.A.S. Music to anyone looking for live music for any occasion. Marie was wonderful to work with!

The music at our reception was absolutely beautiful and everything we hoped for. Marie's rates for a string quartet are very reasonable and I would highly recommend Marie to anyone.

    Wonderful!! The easiest vendor to deal with! Marie made the ceremony even more special with beautiful cello and violin. Guest really appreciated the quality of music. I shopped around for lowest price and was very very very happy with value and quality from MAS Music.

    Marie is amazing!! Her music is absolutely beautiful, she is also extremely professional, kind, and easy to work with. Her music (we opted for violin and cello) added elegance and beauty to our special day -- she made our ceremony and cocktail hour absolutely lovely. Booking her was one of the best decisions we made for the wedding!

    Marie was absolutely amazing to work with. We communicated through email throughout my entire planning time. She was very punctual and professional from the first time we spoke. Her music made my wedding day so much more enjoyable. My guests couldn't stop talking about how the live music made the ceremony and cocktail hour so much more special and personal. Her attention to detail and great repertoire of music made our day so special. Marie is an incredible person to work with and I recommend her without any reservations!!!!

    Marie Stack, M.A.S. performed at our April 26, 2014 wedding at The Crescent Beach Club. We hired her to play strings for our ceremony and keyboard for the cocktail hour. Prior to our ceremony beautiful string music was played during our hospitality period and was heard throughout the venue. We had 3 strings for our ceremony (2 violins and a cello) and her cocktail hour keyboard was wonderful-----loud enough to be heard while also subtle enough not to intrude. She was very flexible as she started to set up for our outdoor ceremony and when it started to rain was able to bring everything back in and set up inside where our ceremony was ultimately held. Marie offered us wonderful music suggestions for the ceremony and the music sounded great. She selected the music for hospitality and cocktail hour and the guests all enjoyed everything. She played an array of music which was enjoyed by all guests as well as us. I would definitely recommend her and her crew for your next affair.

    Marie was by far the easiest vendor I worked with for my wedding. I booked them last minute after the organist at my church had to cancel. She had my unconventional ceremony music transcribed from audio to sheet music and her and her team played them BEAUTIFULLY...it was an incredibly special moment to walk down the aisle to our song and Marie made it all happen! She introduced herself personally after the ceremony, making sure it was a good time to do so, and followed up after the fact with a congratulatory email. Overall one of the most professional and talented people i've ever worked with.

    I can't say enough great things about Marie Stack. She and her jazz quartet played both my ceremony music and cocktail hour. They played beautifully and made my cocktail hour a first class affair! I had violin, flute and keyboard for the ceremony, and the jazz quartet for the cocktail hour. When I first contacted Marie, she had a broken ankle, but insisted on hobbling to meet me. I was immediately impressed with how friendly and professional she was, coming all the way from Brooklyn out to Long Island to bring me several CDs of her music. I booked her immediately. The day of the wedding they were superb! They played all my requested music, even the Dave Matthews songs, which she had to get the sheet music for and learn. I received loads of compliments. She even stopped by the bridal suite before she left to wish us well, which was so appreciated. Marie is a gem and such a pleasure to deal with.

    Marie was great to work with! She was very quick to reply to all emails and was early to our contract signing and our ceremony. We had several songs we wanted during the ceremony that arent traditional wedding songs as well as wanting them to start at specific times in the song. They were no problem for Marie, she played them beautifully and was happy to give us exactly what we wanted! All of our guest said how beautiful it was and howit was so classy having a solo violinist playing while guest arrived and during the ceremony. We thought we wouldnt be able to afford live music, but we were definitely wrong. It was affordable and worth every penny to not have to stress if the music will start if you chose to go with recorded music. So glad we found Marie and were extremely happy with her performance!

    We used Marie Stack music for our wedding ceremony. We had a string quartet. Marie was wonderful to work with. She even wrote some music just for our ceremony so that we could have all the songs that we wanted played without charging us extra. The music sounded amazing and really added to our ceremony. People also got a kick out of hearing the likes of Lady Gaga, Rihanna, and Coldplay along with the classics. It really set the scene we wanted for our wedding.

    M.A.S. music provided the music for our ceremony and cocktail hour, and everything turned out beautifully! We had a string quartet for our Catholic wedding ceremony, and Marie worked with the regular musicians at our church to coordinate all the music. Marie was great to work with and made the planning process very simple. We basically sent a list of songs that we wanted played during the ceremony (with Youtube links to clarify some things), and Marie took care of everything. I had even requested very specific timing for the song I walked down the aisle to, and the quartet timed everything perfectly! The music for the entire ceremony was integrated so seamlessly with the sequence of the mass. It created a beautiful atmosphere to our wedding, and definitely brought tears to people's eyes! Later that evening, Marie Stack provided the background music for our cocktail hour on the piano. The piano music created such a great atmosphere as all our guests mingled together. As a musician myself (violinist/pianist), the music was one of the most important aspects for our wedding. M.A.S. music exceeded my expectations and created a beautiful and unforgettable setting for our wedding. I highly recommend!

    We hired Marie Stack (M.A.S Music) to play our ceremony music when we were planning on having our ceremony at the venue. However, about 3 months before we changed the ceremony to a church. Originally we wanted the violin and the piano played and had to cancel the piano since the church was providing the organ. Marie was more than flexible and the price was Amazing….She worked with the music director at the church and people really did notice. It was such a nice combination. www.mariestack.com

    We got married on 11/11/2011 and Marie from MAS Music was wonderful for our ceremony. She took our ceremony to another level. Her music was beautiful and everyone loved it. It was a big hit at our wedding and we just can't recommend her enough.

    -Thanks again from Shane & Joannie Perry

    Marie offered exactly what I wanted in wedding music. Though we were unable to have her attend rehearsal, her band adapted so well to the ceremony, rehearsal was unnecessary. I definitely recommend her to any and everyone who wishes to use her. The ceremony music we used included violins in the popular "Canon D" wedding song. It was beautiful and everyone said it was elegant.

    Marie and her staff are absolutely fabulous. They were very kind, professional, and overly willing to work with anything we requested. She met with me whenever necessary and helped immensely with everything. She even customized her services to meet our needs based on all het experience and she was right on the money. She even accompanied my sister in law in singing a song for our ceremony with no problems. We couldn't have asked for better music for our reception and ceremony. I would highly recommend her to everyone getting married.

    Marie and her team were fantastic! They were my classical ceremony musicians as well as my jazz band for the cocktail hour. She was so helpful in guiding me with song selections and help create my vision. They were reasonably priced and sounded absolutely fantastic - what more could you ask for!

    Marie played solo for us, and I couldn't have been more pleased! Her communication from the very start was amazing, but just as importantly she was so affordable!

    She played both the violin and trumpet for us, was punctual, and switched to different instruments depending on the song choice! She was really a pleasure to work with, and we were so happy with the results!

    You really need to give them a call and get a quote, because this was a big bang for the buck!

    p.s. She was recommended by my planner, Christine at EAP! Another amazing suggestion!!

    I booked our ceremony music with Marie a year prior to our wedding and I can't say enough about her great communication and how helpful she was in selecting our music. I had a string trio for the ceremony and it sounded amazing. Marie and her staff played modern music while my guests were being seated and played traditional music for the actual ceremony. All of my guests loved the music and it definitly added so much to my ceremony to have a live string trio. It was very, very romantic! If you are looking for an affordable ceremony musician, contact Marie!! You won't be disappointed!!

    Marie Stack was great, she was always responsive when we e-mailed and very courteous. We had such a simple and stress-free deal it was perfect with so much to do when planning a wedding. I e-mailed her for prices, she responded very quickly sent me a contract and cds with samples of her music. I sent her a check and she was there the day of with a violin and trumpet. I hear from my guests that she was playing for them before I arrived. She introduced herself before I went in and that was it. Perfect dealing with a vendor.

    Marie provided ceremony music for our wedding. She was excellent. Our guests were full of compliments on her beautiful music (as we were as well). She was responsive and pleasant to any requests we made. She was a real pleasure to work with and was one of our best vendors. I would highly recommend her for any wedding service. She made everything go seemlessly and a bride can be confident she will do what you ask of her with no complaints or hassles unlike some other vendors.

    She was fantastic!!! Thanks so much, Marie.

    We used Marie Stack for our ceremony music. We decided on a string quartet, and they sounded wonderful. The quartet set the scene and vibe we wanted for our wedding day. Marie was professional, helpful, and friendly. I would absolutely recommend her and her colleagues.

    Marie runs the show and thank goodness for that! She plays the violin and was at my ceremony ahead of schedule with another fellow violinist and a pianist (3 piece).
    I sent them hymns with sheet music which they have never played before about 6 weeks prior to the wedding and on the day, everything came out PERFECT. The music was fabulous and Marie was on top of her game.

    At the end, I had forgotten to tell Marie that there was a change in plans and I needed her to play something for the recessional (I had originally planned on putting on a song on speakers). I tried not to freak out thinking there was going to just be dead silence as we walk out, but Marie was on top of it! As soon as she noticed the song didn't come on in the time that I had told her it would, she got her musicians together and played an impromptu Wedding Recessional March. SHE IS AWESOME. She later came and personally congratulated me, it was so nice to have finally met her in person.

    Definitely one of my best choices!
