Wedding CeremonyReviewed on July 2, 2023From New Castle, NH

Boston String Ensemble was a fabulous addition to our wedding. Easy to work with, professional, affordable and just set the perfect tone for our ceremony and reception. We received many compliments. The music made us weep. Strongly recommend them.

We loved having the BSE play at our daughters wedding ceremony and post ceremony cocktail reception! They were professional and arrived in a timely manner. The trio was set up and warming up before our guests arrived. Thank you for a great experience!
