theart, our communication was great. I so appreciate how willing they were to accommodate our song requests — a few of them were tricky to find! I vetted many local strings groups and in my opinion, they offer the best talent and song options for the best value. As the bride, I wasn’t able to hear the entire ceremony so I’m super excited to hear the full performance once we receive our videos. So grateful they were there — thanks again, Hannah and company!

The list includes links to them performing the song (not for all songs, but a large majority), so you can hear what it will song like. I was really impressed with all of the options available, from traditional to movie soundtracks to pop songs. They also learned one song for me as I had a certain song that I wanted to plays as I walked down to the aisle. On the day of, they arrived promptly and looked professional. The music was perfect - they played everything beautifully, and everyone was really impressed with their talent. It was so fun to have them play, and I was beyond happy with how well they played. If you are looking for a live music option, definitely use Chicago Street Strings, you will get an incredible group of musicians to play on your wedding day.

together to make sure everyone was on the same page and to get the right group of musicians together to form the quartet. Everyone was also very accepting of me arranging music for them to play to make it more personalized. It made the day just that much more special!
