Sarah was amazing... I would definitely secure her services again... and again and again...
Cellist

Sarah Overton played for my fiancée and myself for a surprise proposal. She was professional, responsive, and reliable. She did an amazing job playing songs we love in very difficult conditions (outdoors in the cold). She brought an extra bit of magic to our special event and I will always be grateful to her!

We booked Sarah for our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour and couldn't be more thrilled with her work! She's an incredible talent and her music made our day so beautiful. We're so grateful.
String Quartet

Classical Duo

Sarah organized a string quartet to perform for our wedding and prepared a song list for us, worked with our requests, and even accommodated us by staying longer because we were running behind! She and her group made our big day so special and we'll be calling her back next year for our anniversary!

Sarah Overton played at our small family only wedding. She did an amazing job and the set she played was incredible set. The ceremony was beautiful thanks in part to her.

Sarah was a pleasure to have play at my sister’s wedding! I inquired on her services about a week in advance and it was the perfect last minute addition to her small wedding ceremony. Sarah made the whole process easy to coordinate & her playing was superb. Would definitely recommend. Thank you, Sarah :)

Hired Sarah a birthday surprise for my wife since she loves the cello. Sarah’s performance was phenomenal from beginning to end. There were 3 additional couples in attendance at the surprise party. They enjoyed Sarah’s performance just as much as my wife. We danced to some of the selected pieces and my wife was elated that Sarah played two of my favorite songs for her. Communication was excellent between Sarah and I. She was very responsive and allowed me to have input into personalizing and selecting recommended pieces. Sarah’s personality is extremely kind, personable and professional. As an added bonus, Sarah shared the history of some of the composers and pieces. Would definitely hire Sarah for future events.

Sarah was the highlight of our night, played amazingly, and was creative with here ability to play modern music on the cello. Can't wait to have her play for us again!

We had the privilege of having Sarah and her colleague Brett perform at our daughter's wedding, and not only was their musical performance out-of-this-world amazing, but Brett also brought great karma to the event. She was easy to work with, and super flexible and accommodating as we jointly developed our set-list in the weeks leading up to the event. Thank you Sara and Brett!

We had Sarah play at a beautiful bday celebration in the park and she was outstanding! Couldn’t have been happier. Very talented, kind and professional
Cellist

We asked Sarah to play on our terrace for an intimate gathering. From the very beginning through the end, Sarah was extremely polite, responsive, and accommodating with all our requests. We worked with her on the play list (a mix of classical, jazz, pop) and everyone was blown away by her talent. She even tweaked the playlist for two additional songs that I requested last minute. She arrived promptly at the time she said she would and it was so seamless after that. I look forward to hiring her again to future events!
Cellist

Sarah was a wonderful choice for my best friend's bridal shower! She accommodated ALL of our music requests (including Ariana Grande, Journey, and Ella Fitzgerald...) and even worked with our schedule so that the music was appropriate for the different surprises we set for the bride!
We're so glad she was able to travel to make it out to us, and we booked her on the spot for extra time with us as well. She's versatile, talented, and great to work with!
Cellist

We scheduled Sarah last minute for a small outdoor elopement in the city. She played beautifully for our ceremony and even arranged a piece of video game music for us at our request! We're so very glad we were able to work with her, and will be booking her again for our reception at a later date!
Cellist
Sarah played at our outdoor, roof top birthday party. We asked that she play show tunes and Sarah provided a play list for us to check out in advance. Sarah tweaked the list after we requested several other composers. Sarah was responsive, flexible, very prompt, easy-going and most importantly, very talented. The guests enjoyed her show. We give her the highest rating and we hope that we have a chance to hire her again. If only there was time to hear her perform more.
