We were SO happy with St. Charles String Quartet! They performed for our wedding ceremony and the music was just beautiful. I wanted them to play some of their more contemporary pieces (Beatles, Beach Boys, etc) before the ceremony began and was so happy to hear "Moon River" playing so beautifully as I walked in to the church. Many of our guests commented on how beautiful the music was. I would highly recommend them to anyone!

My husband and I hired St. Charles String Quartet for our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour. We were so happy with our choice! Leading up to the day, they were incredibly accommodating to our change in wedding venue and all music requests. They have a wonderful repertoire, with a mix of old and new music. Their music created a great atmosphere for the ceremony and cocktail hour, and we had so many guests commenting on the wonderful music. We would definitely recommend them!

St. Charles String Quartet played during our George Washington Birthday Celebration on February 22, 2013 and they did an amazing job! They are very talented and true professionals. We've received many compliments from the attendees of the event and I will highly recommend them.
Thank you Tara, Neil, Kirill and Erik! You were awesome and made our event really special!

They were absolutely fantastic and accommodated all our special requests without any problem. My wife had always wanted the Theme from Jurassic Park to part of her wedding ceremony and they did a fantastic job playing it for the recessional music. The week of the wedding we asked if they could play Call Me Maybe during the cocktail hour as an inside joke and they did even though it was a last minute request and it wasn't on their list. I can't recommend them highly enough!

St. Charles String Quartet was fabulous. They performed every song just as I'd requested each be played for my ceremony and also helped me surprise my guests with their selection of pop songs in addition to the classics!

My husband and I hired St. Charles Strings to play at our wedding ceremony at the Carnegie Institution for Science on March 9th. We have absolutely nothing but the best things to say about their performance and the overall experience of working with the group. We had a trio play before our ceremony and for the first part of cocktail hour; they were fantastic about playing our requests and generally picking music that lined up with our taste. Neil, the main point of contact for the group, was a treat to work with and made himself extremely accessible throughout the planning process.

These guys (and gal) rock! Totally rock! They made the party. Adults and kids alike grooved along the entire time. I have nothing but good things to say about them. Now I just need to throw more parties so I can invite them back.

The St. Charles Strong Quartet was amazing at my wedding at Mt. Vernon. The guests couldn't stop commenting on how wonderful they were and what a unique experience it was to listen to a string quartet.
It was actually raining at my ceremony (which was outside under a tent) and they were extremely accommodating and played wonderfully. I play the violin myself and know that weather like that can make instruments go out of tune quickly, but it didn't seem to affect them at all.
I also had a unique request for my first dance and they instantly said it wouldn't be a problem and ended up playing it perfectly!
I definitely would recommend them to anyone!

Neil Puzon was a pleasure to work with in planning our son's wedding ceremony. My son and I have a favorite choral work (8 part) which the quartet was able to distill to four and did so beautifully.

The St Charles String Quartet added the perfect touch to our daughters wedding. They were professional, timely and extremely talented. We received many compliments from the wedding attendees. Neil Puzon was very easy to work with and offered his assistance when asked. I would recommend them highly and would not hesitate to have them play for us in the future.

Assuming you're getting married, and assuming you'd like that wedding to be a classy affair, but also a lot of fun for your guests, you can't go wrong with these guys.
I gave them 5 starts across the board for their professionalism and ability, so suffice to say you won't be dissapointed in the slightest with any of that, or anything they perform.
So here's the bottom line: if you're looking to add a heaping dose of memorability to your ceremony and/or cocktail hour, hire these guys. Doing so will absolutely ensure you one-up, I mean impress, all of your friends and family with your wedding.

We had the St. Charles Quartet as a trio for our cocktail hour at our reception and thoroughly enjoyed every minute of their playing. They were amazing and all of our guests raved on how wonderfully they play! Neil is a great person to work with, and we highly recommend them for any function you may have. Neil and the rest of St. Charles was one of our favorite parts of our reception, and we are so thrilled to have them play for us. If you are going to book anyone, book the St. Charles Quartet. You will not be disappointed!

Where do we begin? Neil and the entire quartet has been a pleasure to work with in accommodating our wishes for our wedding! Not only did they take request and learn new music for us but they went above and beyond to make the whole day feel special. I would highly recommend them for any future bride and groom out there - these guys are a class act!!!

St. Charles is amazing, everyone at my wedding loved them. The songs they can play, and the range of styles of music they have is enormous. They are all very talented and really made our wedding very special. They gladly learned a new song for our first dance, and played it perfectly. I couldn't imagine my wedding without them.

Commitment Ceremony•Reviewed on April 24, 2012•From Washington, DC
Their wide repertoire and strong talent made them an ideal choice for our ceremony. Honestly I waited much longer than I should have to work with Neil on the musical selections, but they played everything we asked for with only a weeks' notice. And played with much spirit and enthusiasm. Part of the ceremony was in the rain. . . they were under cover but it wasn't an ideal or comfortable place for them. They were real troopers and didn't complain at all. We would hire them again in a heartbeat.

Our guests loved you guys! I believe several of our guests have booked you to play at their upcoming gigs. Everything was perfect and I appreciated most being able to narrow down the great song list to the favorites that we thought this audience would appreciate the most. Our guests sang along with their favorite oldies...well done! Great job! Would recommend using this quartet everytime!
