Wedding CeremonyReviewed on June 14, 2017From Lexington, KY

I booked Athena Strings to play at my wedding ceremony. Lindy was great and helped me plan her performance, sent me CDs of suggested songs, and was very professional and friendly. Unfortunately, a few days before the wedding she had an emergency come up and was not able to play at the wedding. In the middle of her own emergency, Lindy arranged for another musician to cover for her and play at my ceremony. I was so appreciative of her thoughtfulness, and the musician she chose was excellent. Although I never had the pleasure of meeting Lindy or hearing her play the songs I chose, I would recommend her to anyone!
