We booked a cello and violinist for our wedding, and Ariana & her team were absolutely perfect for our Aria wedding! Ariana is funny, sweet, attentive, and extremely talented! She kept it laid back and fun to pick the music, but was extremely timely and made sure she checked in on a regular basis throughout the planning process. I didn't have to worry about a thing! I can't thank her and her team enough for a beautiful start to our day! <3

-Michelle, Bride

Absolutely wonderful! The musicians played for our ceremony and cocktail hour.We received so many compliments from the guests. The violin & cello duet played current pop songs as well as classical music. Ariana was so easy to work with and was very thorough in establishing exactly what we wanted played. Highly recommend Ariana Strings for your big day! 

-Erin, Bride

Ariana and her cellist, Elizabeth, added so much to our service! From the start, Ariana was extremely professional, responsive, and accommodating to our specific requests (songs, set-up, etc.) But the best part was the performance the day of. They added such a rich dimension to our event. I was so thankful we'd found them and convinced we'd made a wise investment!

-Kevin, Groom

We splurged to get strings for our wedding and I am so glad that we did! We hired a cello and violin duo (Sarah and Sarah played for us) for two ceremonies and cocktail hour for a total of 2 hours. Ariana made it so easy for us from start to finish. She sent us lengthy questionnaires on how we wanted the ceremony to run so that they could sync up the music to our moments and every song they played was perfect. I couldn't recommend them more!

-Connie, Bride

Ariana and her team played the most beautiful music during our ceremony and I have nothing but great things to say about them. Every one of my bridesmaids was in awe at how beautifully they played during the processional, and they weren’t the only ones who commented about the musicians. I will forever be recommending Ariana Strings, you will NOT be disappointed. She was so easy to work with and even learned a song that I had requested she play for our recessional. You can tell she truly cares for her clients. If you are on the fence about booking Ariana Strings, this is your sign to do it!!!!

-Briana, Bride
