CLIENT FEEDBACK:
Their performance created the perfect atmosphere for our ceremony--semi-formal but still friendly. Our daughter chose several classical pieces commonly used for weddings, and added "I Will" by the Beatles at the end of the ceremony. We had the room and the flowers, etc, but this duo's classical pieces played on cello and violin made it all come together so beautifully. Our guests were absolutely enchanted by the whole thing--and we did it on a budget. We feel we really got value for dollar using this string duo. They were very personable and very professional. Unobtrusive but an essential part of our lovely ceremony.

My daugther's wedding was outside at our home. The musicians arrived on time, were very friendly and professional. I can't even describe the amount of talent these musicians have. Just listening to them play gave me goosebumps. We had countless comments on how amazing they were and how they added to the elegance and atomspere of the wedding. I would recommed Arreaux Strings to anyone who asks.

Rebecca on cello and Clifton on the violin were definitely one of the highlights of the evening! They are both consumate musicians. Their muscial selections included the bride's favorites as requested. Both performers were on time, performed as expected, were professional and friendly. They were a delightful addition to the evening. We received many, many wonderful compliments about their performance.
People also appreciated that they were able to converse and still hear the music without effort. I would definitely rate them much higher than a "5." We were very delighted and happy with our choice of Arreaux Strings. We highly recommend them.
