    Amazing String Quartet

    My wife and I had the opportunity to engage Kim Feeney and Ovation Strings to perform at the recent marriage of our daughter. From our first conversation, through the selection of music, to the timely arrival at the venue, to the beautiful music played by the quartet, we could not have been happier. The musical excellence of Ovation Strings is equalled by the professionalism, flexibility and friendliness of the quartet.

    Ovation Strings's reply:

    Thank you Christopher. It was so much fun performing while being surrounded with trains! Such a unique wedding venue and the vocalist sang beautifully.

    Wonderful Wedding Music

    Ovation Strings exceeded all my expectations. We hired them as a string trio for our outdoor wedding and the whole experience was amazing. Kim was always quick to respond, easy to talk to, and made sure that we were on the same page leading up to the wedding so that I did not have to worry about them on the day of. They played two songs out of their normal repertoire that we requested including one that they had to get arranged for string trio, and both turned out beautifully. They were prompt and thorough in conversations with our venue and were an overall joy to work with. I highly recommend Ovation Strings to play at any event, but especially your wedding! They truly know how to make your special day even more special.

    A Sonic Treat

    Kimberly and Mark were the cellist and violinist for my mother's 60th birthday party. They were professional, responsive, flexible, and added an extra touch of elegance to the evening. I would not hesitate to book them again!!

    Ovation Strings's reply:

    Thank you Junn! Such a lovely event and we appreciate the fabulous dinner. What a great gift for your mother.

    Ovation Strings is an outstanding ensemble

    Kim Feeney and Ovation Strings played for my niece’s funeral mass and reception.
    I sang for the funeral and appreciated their professionalism and expertise. As an experienced professional singer, I can attest to their sensitive and nuanced playing and accompaniment. I recommend Ovation strings with out reservation.

    Ovation Strings's reply:

    Dear Marilyn,

    Thank you for the lovely review. It was such a pleasure working with you. Best wishes to you and your family.

    Ovation Strings was absolutely amazing at our wedding!

    Ovation Strings was absolutely amazing at our wedding! We hired them to play at the ceremony and during cocktail hour. The musicians were incredibly talented and they really helped to create the perfect atmosphere for our special day. They have a wide repertoire, so we were able to choose music that was perfect for our taste and the style of our wedding. Their ability to adapt their setlist to suit our vision was truly remarkable. They arrived on time, set up their equipment efficiently, and maintained the utmost respect for our venue and our guests. Their music was beautiful and moving, and it really set the tone for our wedding day. We highly recommend Ovation Strings to anyone looking for a professional and talented string quartet for their wedding. Without a doubt, Ovation Strings exceeded our expectations, elevating our wedding to a level of elegance and sophistication beyond what we had hoped for. Their dedication to creating a seamless and enjoyable experience was evident in every interaction from the beginning of the booking process all the way to the day of the wedding. Ovation Strings will undoubtedly leave a lasting impression on your special day.

    Hi Leanna,

    Excellent! and played special songs for serrenade and first dance!

    Ovation Strings was excellent! Their music was perfect for the upscale reception we had -- lots of Mozart and other good classical music. Most of all they accommodated two very special requests -- they were able to prepare a waltz for a first dance for the Bride & Groom, and they played accompanying music for serrenading the Bride! Outstanding working with them.

    Ovation Strings's reply:

    Hi Ned,
    We had such a great time playing for your wedding reception. It was a treat to play all classical music. Everyone at the hotel was very helpful and the dinner was delicious. Best wishes to you and Maria!

    Amazing experience!

    My fiance and I wanted string music during our ceremony, and we are so glad we went with Ovation Strings! Communication was quick, easy, and Kim was able to walk me through the whole process with ease. I wanted a specific song to walk down the aisle to that was not listed on their repertoire online, and Kim was able to find the sheet music and have it ready to go for my wedding day. They were absolutely perfect and we had so many compliments about our ceremony. I highly recommend!

    Ovation Strings's reply:

    Thank you for the nice comments. Despite the extreme heat, it was a beautiful ceremony and you had a wonderful wedding coordinator who made sure everything went smoothly. Such a pleasure!

    Perfect addition to our day

    Kimberly was amazing to work with and so responsive & sweet! She was able to have a few songs arranged (for a fee) that were really important to us that she wasn’t able to find elsewhere which was so appreciated! The quartet sounded so beautiful and made a huge impact on our day! Our guests loved the music and it definitely added a bit of a wow factor. Thank you again!

    Ovation Strings's reply:

    Thank you Stephanie! The estate was beautiful(as was the wedding) and we loved the dogs! We wish you great happiness for your future!

    Absolutely Amazing

    Ovation Strings was the perfect touch during our wedding ceremony at Park Winters! They offer a variety of musical pieces for any occasion and they will work with you on any options you may want. It was a breeze communicating with Kim and she ensure all of our details for our wedding were smoothed out. Our guests enjoyed Ovation Strings & they added such a sweet & intimate element to our big day. I would hire them a million times over!

    Ovation Strings was Elegant and sounded Magical

    We just did a Quinceañera, pretty much as big as a wedding. We hired Ovation strings through our planner Risa who recommended them. The booking was super easy and done quick. They call a few days before the event just to make sure everything is ready. The playing at the event itself was absolutely beautiful, everyone was in awe and it made the space look and feel more elegant. Would recommend 1000 times!!!

    Ovation Strings's reply:

    Thank you Jenifer. The Quinceañera was amazing. It was so nice to play around all of the beautiful, sweet smelling flowers and the beautiful outdoor/indoor setting.

    Wedding 10/23/22

    Ovation strings was a wonderful addition to our wedding! They made our garden ceremony feel more elevated and elegant! Wonderful mix of classic and contemporary for pre wedding music. Easy to use website that gave a list of their repertoire and a Spotify example of songs. Kim was very communicative and east to work with. She called with a week of the wedding to confirm our choices. Easy to work with, outstanding musicians and an elegant touch to make our ceremony magical

    Ovation Strings's reply:

    Beautiful and classic

    Ovation Strings played for my wedding ceremony and cocktail hour and they were amazing. It was very romantic and beautiful.

    Ovation played for our wedding and we couldn't have asked for better live music. Their music was so lovely and made our wedding feel so special. They were extremely easy to work with and their experience made us feel at ease. We absolutely recommend Ovation!

    Swoonworthy string quartet!

    We hired Ovation Strings for our 5/6/23 wedding and we are SO glad that we did! They played for 2 hours (ceremony music and cocktail hour) and our guests LOVED them. They played a mix of contemporary and classical music (they have a great list!) and Kim went out of her way to find awesome arrangements of the special songs that we requested! Kim was easy to work with every step of the way and the quartet was perfection. Their rates are also VERY reasonable (if anything I think they should be charging more--they're worth it!!). They have my absolute highest recommendation!

    Ovation Strings's reply:

    Wow! Thank you Katharine. We will certainly take that into consideration. We had a great time playing for your event. Best wishes to you and your husband.

    Perfect! So pretty!

    Although I only got to hear a few songs, it was absolutely beautiful. A few people commented on how awesome they sounded and the songs were so pretty. I can’t wait to watch some videos of the wedding to hear more!!

    Beautiful Music at our Wedding!

    Ovation Strings did a wonderful job playing at our wedding ceremony! It truly added a such a romantic and intimate vibe to our day. Our original wedding was planned for May 2020, and Kim was so easy to work with when we had to move it back a year! She was so helpful in our song selection, in listening to our requests and making our song choices a reality, and she was so flexible and understanding. The quartet did a beautiful job playing on the day-of, and we would absolutely recommend. Thank you, Ovation Strings!

    Dear Shannon,

    The quartet was amazing, songs were beautifully played, Kimberly was very professional in communication, she made it her priority to understand what songs we wanted played, in what order and they were very punctual in song transition during the ceremony. Would hire again and we highly recommend to anyone and everyone. A huge thank you to them from the bottom of our hearts! This quartet is second to none!

    Ovation Strings will take your ceremony to a new level of beauty and perfection. I know this because Ovation Strings quartet played for my niece's celebration of life service and reception---and my family and friends are still talking about their magnificent performance weeks later.
    Ovation Strings delivered a high level of
    professional dedication, commitment, and musical excellence to our special ceremony. I highly recommend that Ovation Strings is the answer to your search for musical perfection.

    Thank you Rosanne. It was an honor to be chosen to play for your niece's service. Best wishes to you and your family.

    Very responsive but…

    Had a really good experience with communication and planning music choices. Talked several time about having a small wedding party and I wanted my two bridesmaids and the groomsmen to walk down to a certain song that was special to us as friends and for my walk song I had something that was really meaningful to me and my now husband. My wedding coordinator knew all this and was trying to make sure the musicians knew everything and were set to go. The response she got was “yeah we do this all the time” and they didn’t want to run through things. Watching the video back there is a lot of long pauses and tuning during the prelude music. When it came to the processional they began playing the wedding party music for when the mother of the groom and mother of the bride walked in. Hoping they would just continue this music for the bridal party I was only mildly flustered. When the bridesmaids and groomsmen began to walk to music changed to MY SONG. (And my bridesmaids were wearing champagne not white.) When it was my turn to walk my coordinator was cueing them but they were not playing. My dad and I took a couple steps forward so they could see us better but they still did not play and they were arguing with each other until they figured out they messed up the songs and repeated my song. But this was a pretty long pause with lots paper shuffling and whispers and us standing there awkwardly. On top of all this they never reached out afterward to apologize. Just unprofessional when it came to making a mistake and not taking responsibility for it.

    Ovation Strings's reply:

    Dear Hannah,
    Thank you for having us at your wedding. We arrived early and had an extensive conversation with your coordinator regarding the details of the processional which is our standard procedure. However, the processional did not match the notes given to us by the coordinator which caused us to play your song early. When we realized our error, we repeated it for you.

    We always strive to do our best for our wedding couples to make their wedding as they envisioned it. This error was very unfortunate and also upsetting to us. We sincerely apologize for this. I hope the rest of your wedding went on smoothly.
