REVIEWS
"It is not every day that you get the privilege to listen to true talent. We were a small party of very lucky people who booked The Florence String Trio to come and play for us at Villa Saraceno, Vicenza. Wow! We were all so moved by the music and their incredible storytelling. When musicians love what they do, they have the ability to transport the listener to a magical world and for a brief moment in time become lost in a theatre of sound that touches the soul. Thanks to Daniello, Luca and Anna for making that possible."
– Barty Bailey, 29 December 2023, birthday party at Villa Saraceno, Vicenza, Italy
"Hi Lorenzo, Can I say a big thank you to you and The Florence String Quartet. The standard of musicianship was superb please pass on my gratitude to the individuals involved. It has been an extremely difficult and prolonged process in organising this wedding. Your guidance and communication have been first class throughout. Our wedding party were very impressed by the beautiful music and singing at my daughter's wedding and it certainly enhanced the occasion. Once again my sincere thanks and my best wishes to you and The Florence String Quartet."

"We booked the Florence String Quartet for the welcoming drinks and aperitivo parts of our wedding day, requesting a mixture of classic and contemporary music. They also did a few requests for us once we provided the sheet music. We and our guests really enjoyed their amazing talent and professionalism as they played over several hours for us, and it was a great way to surprise some of our friends with a few of their favourite tracks but in a different format! Thank you so much Florence String Quartet for a fantastic afternoon!"

"The Florence String Trio was such a wonderful addition to our wedding. They were so easy to work with, and they even learned a few new songs for us, which turned out beautiful. We cannot recommend the band enough for your wedding. They will raise your wedding up a notch with their performance, and they are the utmost professionals. They were a big highlight of our wedding, and we cannot thank them enough. Give them a shot if you are looking for a great string band!"

"These guys are phenomenal! Better than string quartets you hear in movies and TV shows - blew us away at our wedding, and they are also the loveliest group of people. Book them for any event you have and you will not regret it, we honestly couldn’t have asked for a better performance."

– Brittani Texeira, 19 September 2023, wedding at Villa Il Pozzo, Florence, Italy
"We really wanted to thank The Florence String Quartet for being a part of our wedding day. We had them play for our garden ceremony and drinks reception. They were the perfect musicians for our dream Italian wedding. All the guests absolutely loved the modern songs they played. Their song repertoire is unbelievable and they are such a talented and approachable team! They even learnt a few songs I had chosen for the ceremony. They were extremely professional to deal with in the run up to the wedding and very good with communicating through the website. We really appreciated that everything ran so smoothly on the day and would highly recommend them as a vendor. You won’t be disappointed!"
– Kelly Friel, 16 September 2023, wedding at Castello Di Rosciano, Perugia, Italy

"Incredibly talented and uber-professional quartet! Thank you."
– Aine Devanney, 13 September 2023, wedding ceremony in Montisi, Siena, Italy
"We had a string duo play during our wedding ceremony and aperitivo. The music was beautiful and the musicians were really professional. We made special request for a song outside their repertoire for them to play during the ceremony and they nailed it! Thank you so much for making our wedding extra special! All in all, they were great but the communication during the planning phase was not the best. Despite this, we are very happy with our choice and definitely recommend them."
– Calle Norling, 11 September 2023, wedding in Sinalunga, Siena, Italy
"We booked multiple musicians from Fixthemusic.com for our small luxury fairytale wedding and would definitely do so again. Lorenzo is a great communicator and answered all our questions timely. He was super easy to work with - adding requests (we added an oboe player and a keyboard player) and coordinating with the artists and pricing each change, making sure they were there, set up and playing. The Quartet played for our procession, recession, and most of our seated dinner. They are talented and professional. The oboe played just one song but did so beautifully. The keyboard player played during our cocktail hour and carried the balance of the dinner during the quartet break and after the quartet was finished. The keyboard player was exceptional - he played four requested songs that were accompaniment for songs sung by guests. One of these songs was unplanned and brought all our guests to tears. It was phenomenal. FixtheMusic also provided our DJ - I created a long playlist and sent it to Lorenzo in Excel and the DJ played a dance mix using our songs and he was AWESOME!!! Everyone was dancing and having a phenomenal time and no one wanted to leave when it was over!! My planner gave me a different musical vendor that was a crazy amount more than Fixthemusic. I was soooo glad to find them, they were super easy to work with them and their price was very fair! I would book them again in a heartbeat. They were great!"
– Natalie Feldman, 6 September 2023, wedding in Isola Del Garda, Brescia, Italy
"The string trio that we booked was absolutely awesome, they were there and set up perfectly on time. We also gave them a playlist and they made it happen! We are thankful for the trio and would definitely use them again in the future!"
– Brandon Patterson, 9 August 2023, wedding at Antico Convento I Cappuccini, Montalcino, Siena, Italy

– Kyra Galli, 12 July 2023, wedding at Villa Lena, Pisa, Italy
"The Florence String Quartet were great! They provided high-quality music for our ceremony and aperitifs. We made a request for a unique song and they accommodated us which made the event even more special."
– Daniel Lynam, 10 July 2023, wedding at Villa Le Fontanelle, Florence, Italy
"Wonderful quartet! Thanks again for this experience: before the event, easy communication; during the event, autonomous and adaptable; and last but not least, beautiful music and voice. All our guests were astonished! We strongly recommend. Thanks again, Leslie e Luca."
– Luca Lepri, 26 June 2023, wedding at Pienza Cathedral, Italy
"Hello, Thank you so much to the Florence String Quartet. The experience was absolutely seamless and they were so easy to work with. We exchanged a few emails, they were completely and utterly accommodating to all our music requests. As the bride, the first time I saw them was when I walked down the aisle but they were perfect. They played all our hymns beautifully and their sound carried through the church wonderfully. Thank you so so much, Vita."
– Vita Hink, 5 June 2023, wedding at Pienza Cathedral, Tuscany, Italy
"Hello, We had an absolutely incredible experience with the Florence String Quartet. They made our wedding!!! Our guests could not stop talking about how perfect it was, down to the music at the cocktails where they played tunes such as Coldplay’s Viva la Vida and even the Game of Thrones soundtrack! We are so grateful for their talent and couldn’t be happier with their professionalism. Highly recommend them for your event!!! Nerissa."
– Nerissa D'Mello, 9 May 2023, wedding at Chiesa di Sant'Agostino, Piazza Sant'Agostino, San Gimignano, Siena, Italy

– Lauren Lynch, 7 February 2023, wedding in Castiglion Fiorentino, Arezzo, Italy
"We hired The Florence String Quartet to perform as part of our wedding ceremony and aperitivo at Castello Banfi in Montalcino, Italy in November 2022. The group was very easy to work with and has a large repertoire of music to select from. The music for our ceremony was very classic and absolutely beautiful. The Quartet was able to easily improvise as needed based on the length of our processional, bridal entrance, and recessional. We selected a more lively range of music for our post-wedding cocktail hour and it was absolutely perfect in creating an elegant setting. I would absolutely recommend The Florence String Quartet to any other couples getting married in Tuscany!"
– Megan Synenki, 22 November 2022, wedding at Castello Banfi - Wine Resort, Poggio alle Mura, Siena, Italy
"Hi Lorenzo, We really appreciate your quartet playing such an important role in our special day! All of our guests were really impressed with the wonderful performance that your group put on. The group did a great job with the songs that they learned for us! Our photographer recently shared the photos from our event, so I wanted to share some of the ones of the quartet with you. Thank you again for being part of our wedding day! Best, Nick Baderschneider & Kate Cabana."
– Nick Baderschneider & Kate Cabana, 10 November 2022, weddinga at Fattoria Pogni, Certaldo, Florence, Italy
"Lorenzo and his team were FANTASTIC. We had a string trio come and they were super professional and talented. They arrived on time and played some great classical music as well as covers. I had requested a song as I walked down the aisle to surprise my groom and they were so sweet and learned it for me! It made the wedding day so magical. It was truly so wonderful to have them for the ceremony and cocktail hour, if you're contemplating booking them, do it! I was hesitant at first because they don't have a huge social media presence, but they are true professionals and were better than we could have ever imagined."
– Agnes Aniol, 12 October 2022, wedding in Lake Como, Italy
"The Florence String Quartet were absolutely excellent. We've had to change from an outdoor ceremony and cocktail into an indoor set up last minute given the weather and Lorenzo and team were so great to work with. The music was stunning."
– Irene & Zihao To, 6 October 2022, wedding at Villa Mussio, Livorno, Italy
"We couldn't have been happier with The Florence String Quartet. Lorenzo had great communication, was always quick to respond and ensured that all our requests were met with ease. On the day the string quartet were professional, timely and charming. They set up with no issues and removed any stress from the day. Best of all they played beautifully! Thank you so much :)"
– Mica & Brendan Bansil, 4 October 2022, wedding at Tenuta Corbinaia, Florence, Italy
"We had the Florence String Quartet play for us at our Wedding. Wow, the best decision we made. Lorenzo and the team were professional, friendly and just the most amazing and talented musicians. They performed every song to such a high standard, it made the Ceremony. They were just superb. As mentioned, not only great music but lovely people, courteous friendly polite, I can't thank them enough. We even asked them to move location during the session so they could play to where we wanted a first dance, nothing was too much trouble. Thank you, 10/10!!"
– David Wardle, 20 September 2022, wedding at Hotel Villa La Palagina, Florence, Italy
"The Florence String Quartet recently played at our wedding reception in Lucca. They were amazing and the perfect accompaniment to the day. They played our entry music as my partner was walking down the aisle. It was beautiful and there were many happy tears :) They then played throughout our aperitif and performed such a perfect mix of classic and modern pieces. We had so many guests compliment them and they really added something very special to the day. The booking service was also so straightforward and the team at FixTheMusic made everything so easy. Thank you so much for a wonderful performance. I would 100% recommend The Florence String Quartet for any occasion where you need some beautiful music. Thank you!"
– Andi & Grace Lee, 20 September 2022, wedding in Lucca, Italy
"We were extremely happy with the performance of the Florence String Quartet at our wedding. We requested them play as we welcomed the guests, during the ceremony, and during the cocktail hour following- all of which they did seamlessly. We worked with Lorenzo in advance of the event who was extremely easy to communicate and coordinate with, and who even helped us accommodate a special song request for the ceremony. Additionally, the quartet was very flexible on the day in moving around locations according to the weather, and for adding in nice touches during the ceremony (e.g. background during exchange of rings). The group is professional and skilled- would highly recommend!"
– Gina Walker, 19 September 2022, wedding at Residenza Antica Flaminia, Civita Castellana, Italy

– Veronica & Alain Thibaudeau, 2 September 2022, wedding in Seggiano, Grosseto, Italy
"Hello, We booked both The Florence String Quartet and The Florence Jazz Band through FixTheMusic for our wedding on Saturday at Villa di Ulignano in Tuscany. The string quartet were absolutely wonderful - they performed so beautifully at our wedding ceremony. They set such a romantic tone that started off the day’s celebrations perfectly. The Florence Jazz Band also performed at our aperitivo - Camilla's singing was wonderful and she and her team of musicians provided the perfect ambiance for mingling and drinking cocktails. Thanks so much, Sam & Sean x"
– Sam & Sean Leach, 18 August 2022, wedding at Villa Di Ulignano Di Massimo Cristaldi, Volterra, Pisa, Italy
"I got the cello and violin duo and they were amazing. I wanted to have a Bridgerton vibe to my wedding ceremony. I had a song that wasn't on their setlist that I really wanted them to play during my ceremony and they were able to incorporate it in. Everyone thought they were super classy and fun."
– Marina Li, 16 August 2022, wedding at Villa Cora, Florence, Italy
"Good Morning Lorenzo, I hope you are doing well. We have just got back from our trip and wedding in Italy.

– Laura Phillips, 9 May 2022, wedding at A.Roma Lifestyle Hotel, Via Giorgio Zoega, Rome, Italy
"We hired The Florence String Quartet, and DJ to play at our wedding in Italy. We were planning our wedding from Ireland and did not have the chance to see either act in person before the event and was slightly nervous about booking music. However I could not recommend The Florence String Quartet more, Lorenzo was so helpful throughout, even helping and advising us on the music selection for the day. They were a wonderful addition to our wedding and made it even more special. The DJ in the evening added a great atmosphere with his light set up. He kept everyone dancing all night and again I would have no hesitations in recommending him to anyone."

And when I close my eyes now I can relive the most beautiful moments of our lives. Both the pizza party day and the wedding day, they just wouldn’t be the same without your music and your energy.

Zosia & Sebi."
– Zosia Gryta, 10 August 2021, wedding at Terre di Nano, Tuscany, Italy
"I have planned the whole wedding remotely and didn't have a chance to meet with the musician before so I was a little bit nervous. I have to say everything turned out amazing. The quartet was responsive and flexible with the schedule. The wedding guests and I loved their repertoire and the charm the gentlemen brought with them. The band added a special Italian touch to the wedding, with the guest swooning and singing along, as well as requesting songs. It was the perfect Italian music band!"
– Weronika Swat, 5 July 2021, wedding at Villa Di Ulignano, Volterra, Tuscany

"They were absolutely delightful! They were professional and lovely and played amazing songs. They played the tunes we picked for our ceremony beautifully and then they stayed for the cocktail hour and played some more. We just left it for them to play whatever they wanted but made sure they were known tunes and they played a great mix of movies, classical and pop songs that everyone knew. Would definitely recommend them! Very easy to deal with, good price and from what I can gather they have several options. We could only afford a violinist and a cellist but they were very accommodating. I said what my budget was and asked what I could get and they sent through a couple of options! Would defo book them again!"
– Charlie Juul, 4 October 2020, wedding at Borgo I Vicelli Country Relais, Florence
