For Diane Grewing's son's wedding on July 8, 2006...
"Karen: I just wanted to let you know how much everyone enjoyed the music from the string quartet at our son's wedding.  It was absolutely beautiful, and we received so many compliments.  My sister's daughter was married two years ago and used a high school quartet, and had such a bad experience with that.  Your musicians looked so nice and classy and played all the songs right on cue.  And with a Catholic service and other musicians playing at other parts of the mass, that is a somewhat difficult task!  The Ave Maria was so majestic, and of course my favorite Canon in D brought chills to me. The Unchained Melody made me weep, and everyone of course loved the Halelujah from Shrek!  We were so pleased and the music brought so many people to tears. It was so beautiful, and I will highly recommend you to others."
Thank you again, Diane Grewing

Hi Karen,
"Just wanted to send a "Thank You" for such a beautiful strings presentation!! It was absolutely beautiful! We received so many wonderful compliments about how beautifully the string trio played. I wanted to also thank you for the extra work you did on the song with the vocalist. At the beginning it did not seem possible but you made it possible and beautiful. Scott (Organist) was impressed with you pulling that off without having the arranged music. What a professional job that was. I was also impressed with the correspondence between you and me. Every time I had a question you were extremely prompt with your reply and answered all my questions and addressed all my concerns and made me feel right at ease with everything! Thank you once again!"
Sincerely, Barbara Johnson

The music at the wedding turned out beautiful. Thanks."

Ryan Cunningham

For Dabney Jungerman's wedding on Oct. 6, 2001...
"This group of musicians was a beautiful part of the wedding ceremony.  They arrived on time, and set up in an unobtrusive manner.  The musical background for guests arriving was lovely, and the volume and tempo appropriate for the church.
The music performed for the processionals was perfect, and I loved being able to notice and identify the selection used for the time when I was seated.  The bridesmaids' processional was lovely, and the music tempo was correct.
I would feel good about giving a recommendation based on our experience with them.  Karen and her friends were a lovely part of the wedding."
