Response from Sister Strings:
Thanks so much! It was an honor to play for your special day!
I have always dreamed of walking down the aisle to live music. The Sister Strings really made that dream into a reality.
I mostly communicated with Jewel, and she made selecting music a breeze. I really did not know how things were going to work out on the day of, but it was beautiful nonetheless. They were very professional, and prompt. I highly recommend them for any event!!!
Thank you so much!

Response from Sister Strings:
Thanks so much Danna! We enjoyed playing for your wedding.
We had Sister Strings perform at my daughter's wedding ceremony and cocktail hour. They are awesome. So talented and professional and easy to work with! We had a couple glitches and they covered us while we figured them out. If any of my other children get married in the area they will be performing!! Thank you two!
Response from Sister Strings:
Thank you so much for having us! We enjoyed playing for the wedding.
Sister Strings are amazing and it made my wedding day even more special!!
Response from Sister Strings:
Thank you for having us Alexandra!
We had the wonderful experience of hiring Sister Strings for our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour, and they blew us away! Very easy to work with, extremely knowledgeable about song arrangements, and very professional. Their rendition of Can't Help Falling in Love With You as I walked down the aisle was the highlight of the ceremony. We highly recommend them!
They played my wedding and made it fabulous! Everyone should use them!!! They were on time and were everything I dreamed of!!!!
Response from Sister Strings:
Thank you so much Ashleen! We enjoyed playing for your wedding.
Sister Strings did a great job at my wedding. It was such a nice touch to have a cello and piano player instead of just recorded music. The guests loved it. Very easy to work with and very professional.

Thank you so much for having us play for your special day! We enjoyed playing for your ceremony.
We wanted something different from the common DJ music or recorded MP3 music during certain parts of our wedding reception. We thought two musicians playing live music would be different and add classiness to our event.
Sister Strings played a custom playlist. They were very responsive and answered every question about the playlist. They made beautiful music (cello and keyboard) which we and our guests enjoyed thoroughly. They adjusted to our needs when we ran a bit off schedule and filled in the gaps with more music without me asking them to. They also accommodated my request to get a recording of one of their numbers since our first dance was set to their live music.
I highly commend Sister Strings! My only wish is that I hired them for more hours of performance!
We booked Sister Strings for my wedding ceremony in April and they did a beautiful job! Their music selections/suggestions and the performance (as a violin/cello duo) was absolutely perfect for my garden wedding ceremony. Jewel was a pleasure to correspond with throughout the planning process. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for beautiful wedding music!
Sister Strings did an AMAZING job at my wedding ceremony. Jewel was so easy to work with and was open to playing and even learning new music. She was also very helpful in giving us suggestions and pieces to choose from. She and her husband even played at our cocktail hour! I highly recommend Sister Strings !
