Terrific string trio for our wedding

We hired a string trio to perform during for our ceremony and reception. The musicians were courteous, professional, and exceptionally talented. They even learned a special song to perform while my father walked me down the aisle! I highly recommend International Strings.

They were perfect!!!!

We were looking for live musicians to play at our ceremony and cocktail hour but wanted ones that offered more than the traditional wedding music, we wanted them to be able to play music from different cultures and styles and International Strings were exactly what we were hoping for. We love to travel and were having a Ireland inspired Celtic wedding so wanted to incorporate music from places we’ve been as well as Celtic music and they did exactly that. They had sent a list of all the songs they offer and I was able to let them know which ones suited us best as well as request a special song that they learned just for when I walked down the aisle. They were so accommodating, especially with a covid delay, and our quests absolutely loved them! For me it was one of the best parts of our wedding because it was something that was unique/ special while reflected us and something we love. It was also great that they worked with us and our budget - we opted for just two musicians which still sounded amazing and was perfect for how much we were comfortable spending. Slava was a true professional and I would highly recommend them for any occasion!

An absolute high point for our wedding

Slava and the rest of the jazz trio that played at my wedding's ceremony and cocktail hour were not only by far the most-complemented element by our guests, but they were also flexible, very professional, and really great to work with. When our wedding was postponed a full year due to Covid, they rebooked with us immediately. When we requested a specific piece for our procession, they came through and played SO BEAUTIFULLY. When our cocktail hour ended up lasting longer than predicted, they extended their time by 30 minutes for us on the fly. I only wish that, as the bride, I could have been able to enjoy the pre-ceremony and cocktail hour music instead of just hearing the rave reviews.
