Wonderful addition to our wedding!

I am so happy that we decided to have live music during both our ceremony and our cocktail reception. It truly was a very special touch. Matt was wonderful to deal with and made the entire planning process very easy! The personalization of our recessional song was very sentimental. Thank you for doing such a wonderful job. We would not have had it any other way.

The most talented musicians!

Matt & Emily were incredible to deal with for our wedding. It was exactly what we were envisioning and made the process so enjoyable! I had a specific request for when I was walking down the aisle and they made it sound exactly how we envisioned it! I would highly recommend!

The best soundtrack to our wedding

Matt and Emily are amazing! They are very skilled, and provided beautiful music for our ceremony and first dance. We weren't planning on having live music at our wedding, but I am so glad we did! They truly made our day even more magical - and having them play 'Symphony - Clean Bandit' for our first dance was so special.
They were also very easy to talk/plan with and were punctual and amazing!
Thank you so much!!

Wonderful Strings Duo!

Adagio Strings were fantastic! Matt and Emily were prompt at responding to emails, flexible and helped us plan out our music for the ceremony. They have a lot of songs to choose from and a variety (country, "pop", classical, etc) as well! Beautiful music was played on our day, and we were so happy with our choice to go with Adagio Strings. I highly recommend them for your event!

Beautiful music

Getting married in 2020 certainly brought its challenges with COVIDI but they were very easy to communicate with throughout the planning process and ceremony music was just so beautiful. I could hear them playing from the bridal suite and it definitely put me at ease right before I had to walk down the aisle.

Incredible musicians made our ceremony magical!

Matt and Emily made our day extra special. This extremely talented couple were a pleasure to work with. Easy to communicate with timely replies. Our date was changed three times and they moved along with us each step of the way.
Their music blended beautifully with our day, and the special song request was delivered perfectly. Our guests loved the music Adagio Strings brought to our day, and were dazzled by their incredible talent.
If you are looking to add a special touch to your day I would highly recommend you consider Adagio Strings.

Excellent Ceremony Music

Married: March 19, 2022 @ Whistle Bear Golf Club

Adagio strings did a great job setting the mood for the ceremony. We received plenty of compliments on how nice it was to have live musicians performing the music. They were on time, performed songs we requested and very easy to work with.

Made our ceremony so special

Matt and Emily were such a pleasure to work with. From the very beginning, they were very responsive and communicative. We wanted Christian hymns played at our wedding and they knew all our favourites. Part of their package is learning one custom arrangement and they played a very sentimental song for me to walk down the aisle to; I didn't think I was going to cry but as soon as they started playing our song, I was in tears! Their music made our ceremony so special, it wouldn't have been the same without them.
