Lovely Experience

We hired the Breakwater Quartet for a client's wedding this past summer and we were not disappointed! We were greeted with a smile, the team showed up right on time, were very nicely dressed, professional and polite. They were even open to possibly having to move the cocktail hour inside (weather pending) without a single complaint! We would 100% recommend and use them again. Thank you for everything Kai and Maria!

Breakwater Quartet was perfection!

I hired Breakwater for my wedding ceremony.

very accommodating, I picked a song that was not on the list to choose from. Kaito recreated it and the quartet did a beautiful job performing!

I (bride) was late to walk down the aisle but the Quartet continued to play!

They did a flawless job at ever song they played! Walking down the aisle felt so magical hearing the Breakwater Quartet!

Breakwater 4-tet - simply the best

The quartet was fantastic to work with start to finish. They provided the perfect music to an all ages crowd, outdoors, and even arranged a Taylor Swift song that was requested. They had a crowd standing around listening to them the entire event, despite only being asked to provide "background" music. But they were humble and perfectly adaptable to the entire event. Quick to respond, flexible and the musicianship was exquisite!
