Penn Strings

We had two musicians from Penn Strings play for our ceremony and cocktail hour. They were amazing! They helped us with selections for important songs (like the processions), and made sure that the additional songs they played fit with our personality. They have a huge list of songs online to choose from. The musicians sounded fantastic and really made it special!! A HUGE thanks to Penn Strings!

Penn Strings was absolutely amazing from the very beginning. They were extremely easy to work with and listened to our every request. My husband and I even went to the studio and listened to live music so that we could plan out every single song with them and Chris made it so easy to plan out a very elegant ceremony. We opted for the string quartet and it brought such an element of class to the wedding! We received SO MANY compliments from our guests and would recommend Penn Strings to anyone!!!

Our ceremony music was beautiful! They even arranged a special song that we had requested which turned out beautiful!

We had Penn Stings for our Ceremony and cocktail hour they were very good and everyone enjoyed listening to them

Penn Strings did an awesome job at our wedding. I was a bit scared as they had to play certain parts of the catholic mass but they did it with ease and grace. We hired the quartet and without a doubt was the best decision we made.

Penn strings are wonderfully talented musicians. Their selection of music to play is amazing. I couldn't have been happier, They are great to work with they arrived early and played perfectly.They worked with my budget and were just wonderful. If you want a beautiful touch to your ceremony choose Penn Strings for your ceremony music.

Penn strings was wonderful! They were quick to respond to all inquiries and were able to work with our budget. We also loved the fact that they play current music on the strings which everyone at our ceremony loved! When they played U2 when I was walking down the isle, I nearly started crying! I could not have asked for anything better!

Chris Souza and his fellow musicians was an AMAZING addition to our ceremony. We wanted almost all our music to be custom arranged/adapted and he went out of his way to do not just the pieces we requested, but others of the same kind. We loved their playing so much we had them stay to provide music for the cocktail hour as well. Everyone kept asking us where they were from. We particularly loved how flexible they were and how much they stayed in communication all the way up to the event letting us know the status of the pieces we had requested. Choose Penn Strings for live music, you definitely wont be disappointed!

We truly enjoyed meeting with Chris and Agnieszka to go over music selections. They did a few custom numbers for us, including James Brown, I feel good. Anything they do sounds great on the Cello and Violin. Chris and Agnieszka were not available for our wedding date, so they selected 2 very talented musicians to come in their place. Everything went well and music added a great ambiance to our wedding.

They were WONDERFUL for our wedding. We had an outdoor ceremony and the music was beautiful. I called them based on finding them online. Since we live in Colorado and got married in PA we had to plan this part without meeting them until the day of event. They sent us a CD to listen to to help us pick what we wanted and worked with us on the phone to customize the music to our liking! Then on the day of they appeared right when they were supposed to ... played breathtaking music and were just wonderful! I would HIGHLY suggest to friends looking for strings for their ceremony - just wonderful!!!! :-)

These guys are amazing! The music was perfect for our outdoor wedding. They have a very large list of songs they can play- and have plenty of modern, contemporary songs which we loved. They sounded so wonderful and many of our guests complemented on how great they were. They are very friendly and responsive and most importantly- VERY talented.
I highly recommend them if you want breath-taking music for your wedding!

I LOVED working with Chris Souza! He and the cello player were fabulous! I wanted something small, but unique for our wedding and they played several pieces-both traditional and non traditional and everyone raved about their music. He was very fast at getting back to me and made me feel that my wedding was very important to him. I would definitely recommend his company! Very professional and they even played for me for about an hour as a 'tryout' when I had already planned to book them... website was very very helpful, too!
