I was all around totally impressed with Melegari. I had a string trio for my morning ceremony and during the brunch - 150 people.I worked mostly with Sarah but also talked with Kirsten when Sarah was out of town. I was coordinating the music over the holidays so I was expecting delayed response times but I never waited more than 24 hours to hear from someone, even the day before Christmas Eve I got a call back. They were extremely helpful in suggesting music and accommodating my requests. A week before my wedding I requested a song that was not in their "repertoire" online and they busted their little rumps to find the music for me. So special.The ladies who played were complete professionals and did a fabulous job. If you are interested in a string duo/trio/quartet I would recommend them most vociferously.

The players were great and very professional. Coming from a musician-filled family, we were a bit picky about who we used for the ceremony. This group did a great job and were a very pleasant addition to the wedding. My only suggestion is for better communication as we were constantly chasing the assistant down for responses, info etc.

The music and muscians were excellent! The music created a loving and elegant mood for the wedding ceremony. The muscians were professional, on time, and pleasant. It was such a joy to have them be a part of the wedding.

I was very impressed with the fast responses, leave of detailed information and overall professionalism. I was very assured everything would work out perfectly and it did. The music was wonderful!

Melegari Chamber Players - what a fantastic group of musicians!!! My wedding was earlier this month and I was so lucky to have them be a part of our special day. The music was magnificent, timing was perfect and each one of them had smiles on their faces - evidence to me that they really enjoy what it is they do - making BEAUTIFUL music. Professional and super easy to work with - I didn't worry about a thing! I would highly recommend them!!! Happily-married - Mrs. Kay Norsen

Paloma played the violin at our wedding and did an amazing job!! She was very easy to work with (we live out of town) in setting everything up and did a beautiful job at the ceremony. I would highly recommend her to anyone!

I absolutely loved the music that they played. The sound went through the entire backyard and was heard by all. I was a little unsure at times why they stopped playing for they received a break during the ceremony so I would work that out ahead of time with them. Defintely would recommend them and 2 hours isnt enough, I would say book 3 hours!!

We hired a string quartet from this organization that played for the ceremony and and cocktail hour . If you are looking for excellent musicians with a repertoire of stunning classical music, this is the one! We gave them ideas of composers and specific works we liked, and worked with them on the ceremony music, and they took care of us beautifully. They are very organized and clear about the set up they need which is very helpful when you are trying to organize your event.Our wedding was in a garden, and I can tell you that walking into such beautiful music was magical!

The Melegari Players were wonderful. They were very professional so I did not have to worry about anything going wrong, they were friendly, and of course, they played beautifully.

The Melegari Chamber Players filled in for a friend that developed a conflict and could not play at our wedding. They were very easy to work with and stepped right in with no flaws. We loved their music and were very, very professional. The members of group had delightful personalities.

These musicians are absolutely amazing and are worth the high price tag. You could go for students or canned recorded music, but nothing says "class" like live classical music. They are the best in the whole city!!

Melegari Chamber Players were great! They played at both my ceremony and reception (which were in different locations) and were a fantastic part of our event. We received so many compliments from our guests about them. Actually some of my guests gave them a standing ovation when they finished their set at the reception. They have an extensive repetoire for weddings and they were very professional and flexible. We requested for one of my friends, a singer, to perform with them and they made it happen! I would not hesitate for a second to work with Melegari.

The music and professionalism of the performers was excellent! I was sorry I didn't have adequate time to thank them more in person. The only small thing I would have liked in the planning, would have been slightly more specific options of what classical music would be played, and also the possibility that contemporary string music might have been played in addition to the earlier periods. I didn't have specific music in mind, but if the ensemble had a list of contemporary compositions to choose from, or simply as examples, I would have valued the option to choose some of that.

Beautiful, wonderful people and AMAZING musicians! I love having this memory of my wedding - it made the day, and the whole planning experience, just that much more special. Anyone who has the pleasure of working with any one from Melegari is in for a treat! FIVE OUT OF FIVE!!
