Extremely talented!

I recently had the pleasure of working with Columbia River Strings at the Art of Weddings Venue Crawl and I cannot say enough great things about them. Everyone at the event was constantly remarking on how incredibly talented they are. They were amazing to work with and I would recommend them to anyone who needs music at their wedding.

Fantastic musicians

These folks were wonderful! Booking was easy, their repertoire is vast, and their performance was just perfect. For a small fee they even learned a song that they didn’t already have in their options and we got the most beautiful performance we could ever dream for!

Fantastic Experience with CRS

Columbia River Strings was an amazing vendor to work with. We used them for our pre-ceremony music and during cocktail hour. The booking process was easy and payment on their site was very straight forward. They have a wide selection of songs but were also able to add and learn two new songs that we wanted as well. For our songs to walk down they aisle, we had specific start and stop times and they were able to adapt very easily. We had a black tie optional event and they were dressed to match. They added an elegance to the day and were exactly what we were looking for. Would highly recommend to anyone needing string music.
