Beautiful and professional ceremony music

Lyric Ensemble played the ceremony music for our wedding in Lyons, CO. We worked with the cello and guitar duo (Kimberlee and Dennis). We had multiple guests telling us how special it was to have live musicians there and what a difference it made in the overall experience. They are both incredibly talented and created a wonderful atmosphere for our wedding. They were able to seamlessly blend classical, jazz, and modern songs that meant a lot to us and guests of honor. The day would not have been nearly as magical without them!

Thank you for making our day so special!

Lyric Ensemble are incredibly talented musicians and we are so happy with our choice of hiring them for our wedding day. We chose the cello and guitar duo to play our ceremony music. Kimberlee personally communicated with us in the weeks leading up to our wedding and helped us choose music that would make the ceremony magical. Her team is so knowledgeable and talented in so many different music genres. She and Dennis (the guitarist) were able to modify a song so it was perfect for my entrance and walk down the aisle. Having that customized song and live music was so so special. She also played songs we discussed would resonate with specific guests of honor and that made it even more special. Multiple guests came up to us afterwards saying how beautiful and moving the ceremony music was. We're also grateful for the opportunity to support talented local artists. Kimberlee and Dennis made the day perfect. We would choose Lyric Ensemble again in a heartbeat!

Added a personal touch

Having the Lyric Ensemble made things much more personable than a DJ or canned music. Kimberlee is wonderful to work with. Truly caring and responsive. If you are looking to add a personal touch to your wedding I would highly recommend them!

I am always amazed at just how great A Lyric Ensemble is at everything they do. Ceremonies couldn’t go smoother or sound better. When they stay to play during cocktail, I know my clients are in for a live musical treat, which is a cut above the rest. I cannot recommend them enough!
