Review by Jessie M.

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on June 4, 2023•From New Haven, CT

Kate was very communicative throughout the planning stages of our wedding and was very easy to work with. Her trio sounded fantastic during our ceremony and they were very professional. Her rates are fair and they were punctual. She made trio arrangements for two songs for us and they nailed them! I can’t wait to find another opportunity to hire O’Brien Strings again.

:

Thanks so much Jessie! All my best wishes to you and Richard.

Thank you, Dawn! We really enjoyed playing for your family and guests, our combination of popular tunes, wedding standards and elegant classical. We were inspired by everyone's totally happy attitude and the beautiful black and gold themed set up.

Kate was wonderful to work with, very accommodating, punctual and communicative, and above all a very fine musician who played a lovely solo concert for my father and a few friends on his 90th birthday. Much appreciated!

OBrien strings was very easy to work with and provided professional and knowledgeable feedback. Kate helped to guide me through the process of choosing the music for my ceremony, even through options I didn’t know I had! Her duo worked well with my organist and put on a seamless performance! She helped add a special touch and make my ceremony even more beautiful! Highly recommend such a wonderful and talented group! Thanks a million for a beautiful sound!!

Thank you Emily and Glenn! We enjoyed playing for you and appreciate your review. Hope you had a wonderful honeymoon. All the best, Kate

Truly fantastic! Kate and her string trio did an outstanding job playing at our wedding ceremony. They even learned to play a song I wrote for my wife...and they were able to learn it very quickly. Everything sounded beautiful. I highly recommend them!

Kate O'Brien was lovely! Unfortunately, it had rained earlier in the day so we were unable to have the ceremony outside--but the music was wonderful!

Kate was extremely accommodating, prepared, and played a wonderful performance for our Christmas party. We were looking not just for talent but also for a feeling that would touch our guests. Kate and her team brought warmth and love to our event as well as talent and the gift of beautiful music. They were fantastic.

A perfect, seamless and wonderful experience! Kate O'Brien Strings provided the lovely wedding ceremony and dinner party music. From our initial contact with her - she was professional and delightful. Made the entire experience for us so easy and enjoyable. As I walked down the aisle - the music was perfect. Her team provided everything we could have hoped for at our wedding and dinner party. She offered suggestions which made the process less stressful. Our guests totally enjoyed the music and offered many compliments on their performance and sound. Kate was a joy to work with. I would highly and confidently recommend them to all.

Kate O'Brien was a pleasure to work with. Very professional and flexible with a couple who was slighlty difficult to get ahold of in the planning process! Have already recommended her group to another couple I'm working with.

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on May 25, 2015•From New Canaan, CT

Kate and the O’Brien Strings Trio were amazing during my wedding ceremony. As soon as I listened to the music samples on their website I knew they were perfect! They played a mix of classical and popular music while guests were waiting and were spot-on with their timing when it came to the procession. I was really blown away by how amazing they sounded. They allowed me to customize the music and create the ideal atmosphere for my big moment and it truly felt like a fairytale because of their beautiful music. I would highly recommend them for anyone looking for a string group for their wedding.
