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.

From our first conversation with Modern Strings, we knew we wanted them to be part of our wedding day. The team was collaborative throughout the planning process and really understood what we were going for with our vision. They played during our ceremony and cocktail hour, bringing an elegance to those moments that we couldn't have imagined without them. Our guests couldnt stop talking about how talented they were, and honestly, it's hard to picture our day without their contribution. Their professionalism and adaptability made everything feel seamless, and the impact they had was truly exceptional. We highly recommend Modern Strings to any couple looking to add something special to their wedding.

Incredible!
Modern Strings was a fantastic addition to our wedding and made our day so much more magical. They were wonderful to coordinate with during our planning process and were very responsive. It was very important to us to have more modern songs (as their name says) so we were thrilled when we found their music library with just about every we could dream of, including our top ceremony songs choices, which we were struggling to find elsewhere. All our guests raved about them and they made cocktail hour so much better. 10/10 would recommend to anyone.

Perfect Touch for Cocktail Hour
Modern Strings was absolutely beautiful! Their string trio played during our cocktail hour and added such a special touch to our wedding. Our guests loved the music, and their extensive song library made it so easy to put together an hour of our favorite songs. We can’t thank or recommend Modern Strings enough!
