Beautiful music for our ceremony

We loved working with Penn Strings! They were very professional and the music was perfect for our ceremony. We loved that we could choose the music, ask for recommendations, and in some parts of the ceremony we chose to let the musicians decide what music to play. We think they did a great job with everything, and we would highly recommend!

Beautiful music and easy to work with

We had a great experience hiring Penn Strings to play during our pre-ceremony refreshments and cocktail hour. The guest commented on how beautiful the music was. Susanne was super responsive and easy to work with. I highly recommend them.

String Duet !

Our wedding was 10/15/22 and we had Penn Strings play for our ceremony! We had a string duet with a violin and cello. They were amazing and made our ceremony all the more beautiful. They had a huge song list to chose from! Highly recommend booking them!
