What do I recommend about Penn Strings?! Absolutely EVERYTHING! My husband and I got married in October, and chose the string trio for our wedding day to play both our ceremony, as well as cocktail hour. Initially, my husband was the one who suggested Penn Strings as the first vendor choice after we got engaged last year. He had been to a wedding previously where he had the pleasure of first seeing and hearing them perform. After only one soundclip from their website, it was an absolute YES from myself as well! As a former violin player, I have an absolute love and appreciation for both classic and contemporary string music. And let me tell you, they know their music. We were absolutely blown away by the variety of songs in both categories that they are able to play for your special day! We were first introduced to Susanne, who wound up also being our incredible officiant besides. She was so thorough and informative through the process, and made the seemingly overwhelming decision of choosing music for both our ceremony and cocktail hour, a very easy and smooth process. Even offering up suggestions for appropriate songs that we would otherwise know nothing about. Chris and the ladies made our wedding day absolutely magical with their beautiful music! I had always dreamed of walking down the aisle to Pachelbel, and they made that the most beautiful reality that I could have ever imagined. They were so beyond friendly, accommodating, professional and talented. Our guests truly enjoyed every second of them playing, and could not stop complimenting their performance. By choosing Penn Strings, and this beautiful live performance, our wedding day was transformed into some of the most magical moments of our life. I will never forget that walk down the aisle! They offer extremely affordable packages for every type of occasion, and song lists that will fit every single persons taste of music. We could not be more grateful to Susanne, Chris, and Penn Strings for making out wedding day the best day ever! And for making the whole process of planning everything such a smooth ride!

We first saw Penn Strings at our venue during a tasting event. I got in touch with Susanne through email about options and pricing and she helped me through the whole process. Susanne was always timely with communication and the entire process went flawlessly. The musicians played for our ceremony and cocktail hour – everyone loved them! I especially loved the mix of music we could choose from. I would absolutely recommend Penn Strings to any future brides and grooms!

“We could not have asked for a better start to our big day than the beautiful music played at our church ceremony by Penn Strings. The duo played from the balcony... so this incredible music seemed to disseminate from the heavens! The musicians were incredibly talented and their beautiful performance set the perfect tone for the evening.
Working with Penn Strings was an absolute pleasure. Susanne was incredibly organized and helped us navigate the expansive repertoire to create exactly the right ambiance for our wedding ceremony. Absolutely wonderful!”
