Made our wedding that much more special

Hiring this team for our ceremony and cocktail hour was one of the best decisions we made! We asked for them to learn two new songs for the ceremony, and they both sounded fantastic, we had so much fun walking back down the aisle to their cover of our favorite song. The cocktail hour was all the more special with them playing in the background. They were extremely professional through the process, and I highly recommend them for any couples!

Just what we were looking for!

We were looking for a really simple and traditional configuration for our intimate NY wedding ceremony and Penguin Wedding Music did a great job. My husband and I are both musicians, so when it came time to decide on this part of our ceremony we were having a really tough time. We had a specific vision for what we wanted and knew we didn’t want to use friends. Chris was really responsive and was completely flexible and open to all of our requests. They were professional and on time and the music was just what we were envisioning. I’m really happy that we found them!

Excellent communication, flexibility and skill!!

I loved working with Penguin Music- my ceremony was late and they kept my guests entertained for longer than anticipated with beautiful tunes we love! They're presence was magical, they were great communicators before and during the wedding, and I'm so glad we hired them!
