Beautiful Music

Vine Street Ensemble was booked for a fundraising gala. The music was beautiful - they did such an amazing job. They were easy to communicate with and traveled over 2 hrs in not so great weather. If given the opportunity to book them again in the future-Vine Street Ensemble is going to be my go to.

Hired as: String Quartet

Testimonials

We hired the Vine Street Ensemble for our outdoor wedding ceremony at the Sunken Garden in Allerton Park. Everyone was impressed with their professionalism and talent. They were great to work with as we had some special music requests that they were able to accommodate. We would definitely recommend the ensemble for anyone looking for live music that sets their wedding apart!
-Phil M., June 2012

I just wanted to thank you for your beautiful music. It made the wedding day so special for my daughter. You were fantastic! Thanks again!
-Jackie E., September 2012

Thank you for playing at my wedding, the music was beautiful! I received many compliments on your playing.
-Jennifer N., September 2012

Everyone was professional, the music never lulled, there were no strange pauses or transitions, and the playing was spectacular. Thanks, again, for all your efforts.
-Jill C., April 2013
