Guests LOVED them and we did too!
String quartet was early for set-up, did an incredible job playing throughout the ceremony and even stayed extra time during cocktail hour. Communication before the wedding was also perfect and very timely - something we didn’t find with all our vendors! Our crowd adored them and it definitely added a special touch to our day!

Fabulous Quartet in sound and character!
The string Quartet really provided that extra romance and class to our ceremony as well as our cocktail hour! I would 100% book them again for any wedding ceremony.

Gorgeous playing and great communication!
We knew right away we wanted to go with Cavatina because they were so quick with communication, competitively priced, and also had listening tracks and repertoire lists readily available on their page. Everyone loved their playing! We had them do 30 minutes before the ceremony, all of the ceremony music, and 30 minutes after. They played beautifully and were 100% self sufficient. I would highly recommend Cavatina to any couple getting married to make your ceremony extra special.

Above and beyond!

I absolutely cannot thank Cavatina String Quartet enough for playing at our outdoor wedding ceremony despite the less than perfect conditions. It was the perfect touch, they sounded incredible, and people spoke of them in the highest regard all evening. They were extremely easy to communicate and work with, and they even learned a new song that was incredibly meaningful to my new husband and I. Please consider CSQ for your next event!

The quartet was beautiful,very easy to communicate with, and added no stress to the wedding details. After listening to quartets play songs online, it was amazing to see Cavatina go even more above and beyond our expectations. Perfect quartet!!

We hired Cavatina to play for a special Christmas service at our church. They showed up on time, were well prepared and willing to do whatever was needed to make for a great service.

Cavatina String Quartet was absolutely beautiful. Not only was the music everything a bride could want in terms of elegance, they were one of the easiest arrangements to make. I couldn't be happier with the song options/selections and the guests were delighted as well.

Fantastic! Couldn't have asked for anything more!

They arrived early and were playing when we arrived at our event. They sounded beautiful and made the event so special without taking away from main event. They were easy to work with, flexible and a great value ! We would recommend them in a heartbeat and use them again!!! Thank you!

I engaged Cavatina to play at my son's wedding. They were easy to deal with ahead of the event. They were punctual.. They played the right music at the right times, and played beautifully.

Jim was wonderful to work with, he made the booking process very smooth and adjusted a part of the contract I was concerned with. We are a non profit and he worked with us on pricing which was very helpful. They were very professional and everyone at the event really enjoyed the music. I will definitely book them again!!

Cavatina is absolutely delightful. I worked with Jim to plan our ceremony and it was a piece of cake. We currently live in Milwaukee WI and had our wedding in Otsego, MN. We easily communicated though email for all planning. I would highly recommend this string quartet. My guests loved the ambiance of having the string play before, during and after the ceremony. So professional and so understanding of what you want for your event. Amazing to work with!
Review by Holli H. FROM OTSEGO, MN
 
Jim was super easy to work with! I booked his quartet a few months before my wedding and his communication was prompt and professional. He did exactly what I asked, showed up exactly when I requested, and played absolutely beautiful music before, during, and after my wedding. I would highly recommend hiring them for your event.
Review by Sonja N. FROM MINNEAPOLIS, MN

They were wonderful in every way possible. We had many, many compliments - they were absolutely perfect!
Review by Matt W. FROM MINNEAPOLIS, MN

I booked Catavina String Quartet for my wedding on July 31, 2015. They were wonderful to work with, very quick in responding to my questions, had a great variety of music that they were able to play, and of course were very talented. I received many compliments on my music for my ceremony. Thank you Catavina String Quartet!

The Cavatina String Quartet did an amazing job at our wedding, we couldn't be happier with their work. The music was absolutely beautiful, they listened to our ideas, executed everything wonderfully and had great suggestions as well. They were also early to show up to prepare and were extremely professional. We ran into a problem at the ceremony when our officiant was running late, but you never would have noticed with the beautiful music they played throughout as a filler. Thank you so much for making our ceremony even more incredible than what we had hoped for! Love, The Dycks

Review by Karen T. FROM SAINT PAUL, MN

My experience with the Cavatina String Quartet was even better than I could have ever imagined. I requested a new song not on their list as my bridal processional and they had no troubles accommodating my request and coming up with a beautiful arrangement that was just like the one I had requested. I was nervous about how the ceremony would all come together since we didn't have a rehearsal with the quartet beforehand, but it honestly went better than I could have ever expected!! Everything went flawlessly - they truly are professionals who know how to do weddings well! I would highly recommend the Cavatina String Quartet to anyone!!
Review by Kari W. FROM ROCHESTER, MN
 
They added an entire dimension to the ceremony that made it one of the most extraordinary events of its kind that I have had the pleasure of attending.
Review by Donald L. FROM SAINT PAUL, MN

I have nothing but wonderful things to say about CSQ! They were excellent at keeping in touch with me throughout the whole wedding planning process, as well as being more than accommodating with my special requests for the ceremony, and their fee was very reasonable for 1.5 hours. The music on the day of the wedding was beautiful, professional, and our guests commented on how they added such an elegant touch to the ceremony. My husband and I couldn't have been happier with their service to us and we would highly recommend them to anyone!
Review by Ashlee S. FROM SAINT PAUL, MN

Our ceremony would not have been complete without the music performed by Cavatina String Quartet. Beautiful music, highly professional and accommodating. Highly recommended for any special event!
Review by Robert S. FROM MINNEAPOLIS, MN ON 8/23/2013

Very professional and nice group to work with. Played at my daughter's wedding, and everyone commented on how beautiful they sounded. They arrived early, looked very nice with each musician wearing formal black, played for the entire time, and accommodated my daughter's extensive song request with many pop and modern songs, as well as many beautiful classical songs. I will be hiring them for my next daughter's wedding in one year. They answer emails and phone calls almost immediately. They really made my daughter's ceremony special and beautiful. They will forever be remembered for the beautiful lifetime memories that were created because of their talents.

Review by Angela O. FROM CAMBRIDGE, MN
 
This group was wonderful! The music was beautiful and really added to our day. I would highly recommend them to anyone. We did have a bit of wind that day so it was a little difficult to hear them if you were further away, but we were extremely happy with them. Worth every penny we paid.
Review by Deb A. FROM MINNEAPOLIS, MN
 
The Cavantina String Quartet was able to provide both traditional and modern musical selections, and were able to learn last minute, our personal favorites to play at the ceremony. They added such a great element to our wedding ceremony!

Review by Vance N. FROM ST PAUL, MN
 
Cavatina String Quartet was great to work with. Great communication, normally heard back within hours. Were to the ceremony and setup ready to go prior to guests arriving. Would definitely recommend to my friends! Thanks guys!
Review by Steven M. FROM CHASKA, MN

It started showering in the middle of my ceremony so they stopped playing. So I did not get my special music and the march-off music. I was not very happy that I had to walk out with no music. Also, the performers were very talented but I have to say they are not very an ensemble, more of an individualistic players. Often, my bridal processional was beautiful but not very musical. Sometimes, the violin line was a little off high pitch than the other players. I understand the weather might have affected the strings.
Review by Seoyon L. FROM EDINA, MN
 
Cavatina String quartet was SO FABULOUS to have at our ceremony. They made our ceremony feel very sophisticated and elegant. They are very talented and great at what they do! They played very classic music at the beginning and very modern music at the end. They truly can play anything you need! Our wedding was at 430 on a Friday and they were the earliest people there setting up and ready to go. They had to accommodate for traffic and we appreciated that greatly. I would highly recommend them to anyone that would want strings at their wedding. I am so thankful to have found them on Gigmasters!!
Review by Courtney G. FROM ROGERS, MN
 
The musicians were very professional and accomodating. I received many compliments on our ceremony and reception music. I believe the music performed by Cavatina String Quartet was a big part of what made our ceremony and reception extra speial. Would highly recommend them to anyone considering a string quartet for a special occasion.
