• Dori was WONDERFUL! From planning our ceremony and incorporating our personal touches, to coordinating our rehearsal and wedding day ceremony flow, she was a pleasure to work with and made everything so easy for me! And what talent! The musicians for both the ceremony and cocktail hour were AMAZING! Thank you, thank you, thank you again! -- Mary B, Stone Harbor, NJ, 11/14/2009
• I just loved Dori. She was a beautiful addition to my wedding. We talked alot over the phone and were able to work all the details out by that method. She was very professional and showed up on-time even earlier than expected in fact. She will be a blessing to anyones union. I am very thankful to have had her perform for me and my family. -- Janelle M, Toms River, NJ, 2/19/2010
• Wonderful experience- they played a private encore just for me after the wedding so I could hear a song! So great! -- Katie M, Cape May, NJ, 8/14/2009
• Grace Note Strings were incredible. They were accomodating to EVERY request we had. We asked for a number of songs, and they played most of them. In addition, they LEARNED Coldplay's "Viva la Vida" and played it as our ceremony ended. I still feel bad that I didn't get to thank them in person after the ceremony, but they were amazing. Thank you Grace Note! You were a key part in making our wedding everything we could have dreamed of. THANK YOU! Sincerely, Roderick Corpuz -- Roderick C, Avalon, NJ, 10/17/2008
• They were wonderful! They worked with us and played anything that we requested. They made our ceremony so special!! -- Kelly C, Berlin, NJ, 3/20/2010
• Dori Conlin and her colleagues' performance at my daughter's beach wedding and cocktails following at the Hotel Alcott in Cape May was wonderful.

It was a pleasure! -- Carol C, Cape May, NJ, 5/9/2009
