Margaret Sent on 06/29/2018I cannot say enough about Penn Strings. Susanne Wilson was a dream to work with. This group was professional from our first inquiry to the last song. We chose a string quartet to play during the ceremony & the cocktail hour.
Their playlist was extensive and it covered all genres of music-classical, Broadway tunes, Ethnic songs, contemporary songs, and much more. The choices were phenomenal.
Chris Sousa, the lead violinist was fabulous as were the other musicians. I could not have been more pleased with Penn Strings. -

Karen Sent on 11/14/2021Wonderful Musicians and So Easy to Work With!
We hired a string duet from Penn Strings to play for our ceremony and cocktail hour. They sounded fabulous, even in the outdoor setting where our wedding took place, and had a great set list of contemporary covers that gave our garden wedding a real Bridgerton vibe :).
Leading up to the big day, Susanne coordinated all of the logistics, and she was such a pleasure to work with. I honestly looked forward to her emails because she was so kind and encouraging as we entered the final stressful days of wedding planning. I would ABSOLUTELY recommend working with Penn Strings to any other couple looking to add some class and elegance to their wedding day. -

Penn Strings performed at our wedding and were absolutely exceptional. Their musical talent added a beautiful and elegant touch to our ceremony, creating a super memorable and ethereal atmosphere. Their professionalism and skill were evident throughout, making our special day even more magical. We had a vision for the song we walked down the aisle to, and they executed it flawlessly. -

Penn Strings was awesome to work with from start to finish. We had them play for about 3 hours, including ceremony and then cocktail hour(s). Susanne was a joy to work with throughout the planning stages, from our initial questions to selecting specific pieces of music. We live in a different time zone from PA, so her excellent responsiveness over email made our lives super easy and we greatly appreciate it. The music on the day was lovely, as were the musicians. Thanks for helping to make our day so special! -

THANK YOU to the Penn Strings team! We had a cello and violin duet for our 8/5 wedding, and the entire experience was gorgeous. Susanne was a joy to plan with and her insight was invaluable. We ran a bit late before our ceremony, and I was so thankful that these amazing professionals were so flexible and able to keep our guests entertained. I think it really elevated our ceremony experience, and I couldn't recommend them enough! -

What do I recommend about Penn Strings?! Absolutely EVERYTHING! My husband and I got married in October, and choose the string trio for our wedding day to play both our ceremony, as well as cocktail hour. Initially, my husband was the one who suggested Penn Strings as the first vendor choice after we got engaged last year. He had been to a wedding previously where he had the pleasure of first seeing and hearing them perform. After only one soundclip from their website, it was an absolute YES from myself as well! As a former violin player, I have an absolute love and appreciation for both classic and contemporary string music. And let me tell you, they know their music. We were absolutely blown away by the variety of songs in both categories that they are able to play for your special day! We were first introduced to Susanne, who wound up also being our incredible officiant besides. She was so thorough and informative through the process, and made the seemingly overwhelming decision of choosing music for both our ceremony and cocktail hour, a very easy and smooth process. Even offering up suggestions for appropriate songs that we would otherwise know nothing about. Chris and the ladies made our wedding day absolutely magical with their beautiful music! I had always dreamed of walking down the aisle to Pachelbel, and they made that the most beautiful reality that I could have ever imagined. They were so beyond friendly, accomodating, professional and talented. Our guests truly enjoyed every second of them playing, and could not stop complimenting on their performance. By choosing Penn Strings, and this beautiful live performance, our wedding day was transformed into some of the most magical moments of our life. I will never forget that walk down the aisle! They offer extremely affordable packages for every type of occasion, and song lists that will fit every single persons taste of music. We could not be more grateful to Susanne, Chris, and Penn Strings for making out wedding day the best day ever! And for making the whole process of planning everything such a smooth ride! Thank you again for everything!

Brittany Sent on 10/13/2014My husband and I got married at Skytop Lodge. The day we booked the venue, almost 2 years ago, they showed us a video of a ceremony with music by Penn Strings. I knew immediately I had to have them be a part of our wedding day. We booked with them almost 2 years ago, as well. Throughout the entire experience the kept in touch, keeping on point with all the details. We had an in studio meeting about 2 months before our wedding to listen and choose the perfect songs for our ceremony and cocktail hour. Chris was so professional, personal and flexible in working with us to perfect our vision. The music was absolutely stunning, the staff is a pleasure to work with, and I would honestly recommend them to anyone looking for this exquisite touch to your special day. -

Joanna Sent on 02/05/2010They were WONDERFUL for our wedding. We had an outdoor ceremony and the music was beautiful. I called them based on finding them online. Since we live in Colorado and got married in PA we had to plan this part without meeting them until the day of event. They sent us a CD to listen to to help us pick what we wanted and worked with us on the phone to customize the music to our liking! Then on the day of they appeared right when they were supposed to ... played breathtaking music and were just wonderful! I would HIGHLY suggest to friends looking for strings for their ceremony - just wonderful!!!! :-) -
