About Modern Strings
Modern Strings
We are a husband and wife team located in New Haven, Connecticut who have played over 1000+ weddings and hire professionals from the top orchestras in New England. As a modern couple ourselves, recently married in May of 2021, we are very familiar with the process on both sides. Modern Strings offers a variety of ensemble choices for your budget that range from a solo violinist, to an electric duo, to full string quartet. Whether you are wanting to stay classic or try something unique, our music library can offer you classical, pop, religious, film, jazz music, and more!
We believe that the modern couple, should have modern musicians that can take play in a variety of styles in order to create a personalized experience for their event. Planning a wedding is an exciting time, and you'll have not one, but two people to assist in complementing your musical style to your wedding.

Thank you Modern Strings!
Everyone at the wedding said they sounded great, plus they were so easy to work with leading up to the big day. Highly recommend
The most AMAZING addition to our day!
Modern Strings was absolutely incredible and elevated our entire event. Their musicianship is exceptional, and they brought such a refined, elegant energy to every moment. From the ceremony to cocktail hour, the music was beautifully executed and perfectly curated — timeless yet fresh. They were professional, seamless to work with, and clearly experts at what they do. So many guests commented on how stunning the music was. Modern Strings added a layer of sophistication and emotion that we’ll never forget. We couldn’t recommend them more highly.
A Stunning Musical Touch to Our Ceremony
We were so impressed with Modern Strings and highly recommend them! Our solo violinist, Ben, brought our vision to reality with beautiful music that added such an elegant and meaningful touch to our ceremony. Both Ben and Celine were professional, reliable, and excellent communicators throughout the entire process. We couldn’t have been happier with our decision to choose Modern Strings for our ceremony music!
Modern Strings Ceremony Quartet
We hired Modern Strings to have a string quartet for our wedding ceremony and could not have been more pleased! They provided amazing music to our taste while our guests arrived and the music for our ceremony was absolutely perfect! Even one of my guests who is a classically trained musician commented on how amazing he thought they were! Celine was easy to communicate with prior to our wedding date and we could not recommend more!
