Anthem was very professional and were a delightful addition to our wedding at Phipps Conservatory. The band (Chelle and two other members) was very nice to complement our venue. The music selection was very well suited (we requeted celtic folk/classic rock instrumental) and our guests really enjoyed the live instrumental.

They were wonderful. It was a beach wedding--somewhat complicating for musicians. They were most accommodating, and the music both on the beach and back at the house during dinner and cocktails was excellent. They played a delightful combination of classical and popular.
In the conversations prior to the wedding, they seemed excited about playing for us. We looked forward to working with them. They did not disappoint!
I would highly recommend them to anyone who inquires about them.

They were phenomenal in every aspect for our wedding. Easy to deal with, professional, courteous, kind, accommodating. Their music selection is perfect. I would definitely use them again.

Anthem was the parfect touch for my outdoor garden party wedding. I loved that they had such an eclectic play list and that at first everyone thought it would just be classical music but the next thing you know Anthem was playing Journey and the Muppet Theme Song. My Irish family loved the jigs as well. Thanks Anthem, you really made my wedding special!!

Chelle was a pleasure to work with from the beginning. She answered all our questions and made suggestions regarding the length of pieces and timing to help us fine tune our wedding ceremony. The quartet played beautifully and sounded wonderful! All our guests enjoyed the music and I felt as elegant as the bride walking down the aisle while they played "It's a Wonderful World". My daughter's wedding was a magical day made all the more special with live music and the talent of Anthem! I recommend them highly and hope to have the pleasure of hiring them again. Thank you, Shannon (mother of the bride)

Anthem was absolutely spectacular for our wedding! They were easy to work with, professional and courteous, and truly talented! Every single guest at the wedding commented on the quality of the music - even as young as 12! They added such a special touch and I can't imagine the wedding being as beautiful without them. I rushed through all of my formal pictures so that I could be sure to enjoy every last minute with them. I would highly recommend them and am already thinking ahead to another party where we can have them play! Utterly fantastic!!!

Anthem played wonderful music at our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour! They were able to play a nice mix of classical music, oldies (lots of beatles!), celtic, and some more current music. We really enjoyed having them as a part of our wedding. We did experience some delays in getting email responses prior to our event, but it was not really an issue and we were very happy with their performance at our event :)

Anthem members were very professional and arrived early to the event to prepare and be ready on time. They were very accommodating and performed our requested songs. Even though attendance to our corporate event was poor, they were always cheerful and had a great attitude. Will definitely have them back next year!

Anthem provided a string quartet for our wedding ceremony. The musicians were fabulous. Professional and talented. Chelle was wonderful throughout the planning process: attentive, flexible and kind. She gave helpful guidance regarding the playlist and offered a vast selection to choose from. She even downloaded a couple special songs for our entrance and exit. I was so happy to work with an independent business owner--an artist--instead of a more corporate booking agency. Most importantly, we all loved the performance. Anthem was a special part of our wedding ambiance.

Anthem was great! Chelle really worked with us, and made awesome recommendations. Even though we did not have a complete playlist, Anthem was able to feel out the wedding guests to play pieces based on the vibe. It was perfect! These guys are top notch, and very easy to work with. Although my wife and I do not really speak the "string quartet" lingo, Chelle was able to understand our requests, and how we wanted the night to go. Highly recommended!!

Anthem was very easy to work with. They provided us with a repertoire of music they play. I also provided them with a YouTube of an additional piece, that they were able to arrange for our ceremony. I was very happy with the quality of their playing. I would hire them again in the future when the occasion arises.
