    From Bridgerton to Star Wars, They Did It All

    Amore Strings made our wedding feel like a dream. From the moment our guests arrived, the music set the tone: elegant, warm, and full of personality. The quartet's repertoire was a perfect match for our blended Vietnamese-Western celebration, with everything from modern Bridgerton-style covers to Star Wars and Disney favorites. Guests kept asking who the musicians were, and we are still getting compliments weeks later. Hearing "All I Ask of You" and "Clair de Lune" played live was the part I'll never forget. It gave me chills, and I still tear up when I listen back to the recording. :’) They were also wonderful to work with: responsive, professional, and flexible with our song selections. They arrived on time, set up smoothly, and added a polished touch to the whole day. If you want a live quartet that feels timeless, playful, and personal, book Amore Strings. Thank you for being part of our day!

    Breathtaking MusicalExperience…Pure Magic!

    Amore Strings was truly one of the most beautiful parts of our wedding day! Their music was nothing short of angelic. Every note was played with such beauty, richness, and elegance that it elevated the entire atmosphere and made our ceremony feel even more magical and unforgettable. Their music selection was top-tier, and I was especially touched that they were able to arrange the exact song I wanted to walk down the aisle to. They also worked beautifully with my cousin, who sang during my processional. The way their strings complemented her voice made the moment more beautiful than I could have ever imagined. It was one of those moments that you wish you could bottle up and relive forever. There truly wasn't a dry eye in the venue! What made their performance so special was how deeply the music touched everyone in the room. It wasn't simply beautiful background music; it became part of the emotion, the love, and the memories we created that day. I know the richness and elegance of their sound added so much to the emotional impact of our wedding on our family and friends. If you are looking for a string quartet that will bring sophistication, elegance, and genuine emotion to your wedding, Amore Strings is an absolute must! They didn't just play music; they helped create a moment that will live in our hearts forever. We are beyond grateful to them for helping make our wedding ceremony as breathtaking as it was. I would recommend them a thousand times over!

    Danielle - thanks so much for this review. It is so meaningful to US that we can make music that's meaningful to YOU! And creating your processional - from making an original arrangement to collaborating with you cousin on the singing - was a really fun and fulfilling project. Wishing you all the best!

    Elopement Wedding

    We travelled from the uk to get married in San Francisco. As we weren’t local finding vendors was a little challenging however I am so glad I came across Amore Strings. The whole process leading up to the wedding was extremely simple and they quickly responded to any queries. Amore strings made our wedding ceremony even more perfect and I can’t thank them enough. Highly recommend!

    Fantastic!

    Thank you for playing at my sister's wedding! You were incredibly responsive and easy to work with. Everything went seamlessly and we got many compliments afterward :) I was impressed by how well you performed the special request song, even with only a month to prepare! It is my sister's favorite and it meant a lot to her to hear it as she walked down the aisle. Your lovely music was the perfect personal touch for this beautiful wedding.

    Amore Strings was the HIGHLIGHT of our party! Cynthia was so easy to work with which is important when your already stressed planning any sort of event. They have a wonderful selection of music to choose from and they wow'd our guests who were mainly Spanish speaking with fulfilling their music requests on the fly might I add! We had already submitted our song selection for the event but the fact that they were able to do that for our guest's was amazing! This was our first time booking a quartet and they blew away our expectations. Everyone complimented us on the music for the party. All the musicians were kind and professional. You can tell that they enjoy what they do which makes a world of difference in any service. Its safe to say we look forward to having the opportunity to work with them again. THANK YOU AMORE STRINGS!

Yes we do! If you can't find that special song on our list of over 1000 songs, let us know. We'll research the availability of the music and provide you a quote. Prices can range from $30 to $200 depending on your ensemble and whether we have to write a special arrangement.
Yes we are. We carry liability insurance for $1 million per event and can list your venue as an additional insured.
The process is more alchemy than formula. You'll want to consider several factors including the number of guests, the location, desired ambiance, musical styles, and budget. For example, a solo violin doesn't really do justice to the spoken lyrics of Rap, but is a great fit for lyrical love songs. A string quartet is the OG ensemble with rhythm, harmony and a full musical texture. But a trio does nearly the same thing if you're on a budget. Amore Strings can offer an ensemble for every vision. Visit the Ensembles page of our website for more information and to compare audios of the different ensembles.
Typically musicians wear all black. But if your wedding has a special style or theme let us know and we'll be happy to accommodate.
Both! We offer one-hour packages for the ceremony, and longer packages that include the ceremony and cocktail reception. We can also add hours for a dinner as well.
