Great music for our ceremony.

We booked Flute Cocktail for our small wedding ceremony. We only had immediate family at the event and wanted appropriate music. We ended up booking a violin/flute duo for the event. Linda was phenomenal throughout the entire process. She helped us choose our music by playing small samples when we met with her. There are two things that stand out most, though. After we had chosen the music initially, my (then) fiancee wanted to change her processional song. Linda didn't have the music on hand, but very willingly obtained it for us for a very reasonable fee. Secondly, and most impressively, was Flute Cocktail's flexibility. We had to change our ceremony site two days before the event due to impending rain. The musicians were amazing and gladly worked with us last minute. At the end of it all, we had a fantastic ceremony and Flute Cocktail was a definite part of that.

Talented Musicians

We booked Flute Cocktail for our company Christmas party as the live entertainment for the end of our party. They were spectacular! Very talented, professional, and we thoroughly enjoyed their performance. With so many different options within their group, you can pick whatever instruments fit your needs and/or likes. I would definitely recommend them and would use them again for another function!

Amazing

Linda was absolutely amazing at my mother's memorial service.
From the moment she began playing, her music created a beautiful, peaceful, and uplifting atmosphere that perfectly honored my mother's life and legacy. Her talent, professionalism, and attention to detail exceeded our expectations.
Linda worked with us to ensure the music complemented the service, and her performances added a special touch that brought comfort to our family and guests. Many attendees commented on how beautiful the flute music was and how much it enhanced the celebration.
During a very emotional time, Linda was courteous, dependable, and easy to work with. We were extremely happy with her services and grateful for the role she played in helping us honor our mother.
I would highly recommend Linda to anyone looking for a talented and professional flutist for a memorial service, wedding, church event, or special occasion.
Thank you, Linda, for helping make our mother's memorial so memorable and meaningful.
