Wedding ceremony and cocktail hour music

Live Oak Strings were a wonderful addition to both our ceremony and cocktail hour. We had the string duo play for the ceremony and the jazz trio play for our cocktail hour. They have an extensive repertoire of songs they can play. We handpicked a couple songs for the ceremony, but otherwise wanted them to pick songs that they felt would be fitting for the ceremony and it was perfect! The jazz trio also set the perfect tone for cocktail hour. Highly recommend!

10/10 Experience!

We love Live Oak Music! We had a strings duo (cello & violin) for our ceremony, plus a jazz quartet (saxophone, bass, percussionist, trumpet) for our cocktail hour & dinner portion. The music was lovely and the team was great to work with! The pricing was very reasonable & comprehensive, and their response time was fairly quick. Many of our guests complimented us on the live music. They definitely helped make our day perfect!
