                    NOTES OF THE WEEK

I just have to say Steven Vance Strolling Violins was a huge part of making our wedding night magical. Completely professional, the quickest at responding to any and all questions, and amazingly talented. Steven is amazing and SO EASY to work with. My husband and I HIGHLY recommend this company for your wedding entertainment."

Thank you, thank you! What a wonderful wedding!   All the music was wonderful, and all I could have hoped for. My apologies to the String Quartet, as I was not even able to thank them for the beautiful music at the ceremony! Please let them know how lovely it was, and how much I appreciated it! Guy was definitely a hit, and many people commented on how great he was! The voice, the mannerisms- sooo Sinatra! But a special thanks to you for all that you did to put this together for us! Thank you so much for working with me to find an affordable package. I am so glad you were able to come, and I was able to meet you! All the music helped to make it a perfect wedding day!
