Out of this world fun!

This is the best String Quartet I've seen live! They made the wedding so magical and lively! The most fun I've had as a bridesmaid! Seeing people run over to dance or sing songs they didn't know would be played was really fun. The mix of songs were perfect! They were all so nice as well and professional!

One of the Top Highlights of My Son's Wedding

The Vivace Live String Quartet gave an amazing performance for both my son's wedding ceremony and cocktail hour. I'm so glad we decided to have them perform with a drummer at the cocktail hour as it really enhanced the sound to a fun, lively, entertaining atmosphere. They played all kinds of popular songs that had been selected by the bride and groom. The guests raved about their sound and talent.
They were very professional and easy to plan with as they answered all of my questions and provided good suggestions when asked. I received soooo many inquiries and compliments about this group.
Thanks to Vivace Live as they were truly one of the main highlights of the wedding!

Wedding Guest Review!

I had the pleasure of experiencing this band as a guest at a wedding in late October. They had a stunning performance that fit the venue and the couple so well, playing covers that had the whole guest list laughing and snapping along. The party was a blast with the band fitting so easily in and really lifting the atmosphere! I will 100% recommend them again and again!
