Professional, Qualified & Extremely Flexible

I signed a contract with the Margaritas Ensemble because after researching different quartets, they seemed to be the most qualified musicians with a very large repertoire to choose from. Fanny was very responsible, helpful, and answered my inquiries promptly.
Unfortunately, I had to cancel my June wedding due to the Coronavirus crisis, but Fanny was incredibly understanding, flexible, and gave me a full refund. She even checked in on me before I made this request. I'm saddened I wasn't able to have this quartet perform at my ceremony, but would certainly hire them at a later date to perform for an event! Thanks Fanny!

Ceremony Accompaniment

The Margaritas Ensemble was a truly beautiful addition to our wedding day. The string trio played throughout the cocktail hour and ceremony. They provided a list of songs we could request and were more than flexible with planning the day. I must admit, the sound of strings as I walked down the aisle, made it hard for me to not cry! I was sublimely beautiful. We are very grateful they were able to share the day with us!
