Strings, Reinvented.

- Camille

Their extensive song list immediately drew us in, but it was their professionalism, talent, and energy that truly sealed the deal. We couldn’t be happier with our decision to work with them! They created the perfect atmosphere—dreamy, elegant, and full of joy—which made our special day even more memorable. We are so grateful and highly recommend booking them for your event!”

We cannot say enough wonderful things about Elegance String Quartet and the beautiful impact they had on our wedding day.

- Lauren

They were extremely organized and everything ran smoothly top to bottom. We were also able to add on dance floor lighting to enhance the dance floor party. The DJ fusion portion also made the dance floor a party with the electric instruments playing along with our favorite dance songs. ESQ accommodated everything we asked for that made our day perfect including having a close friend accompany them on piano for the ceremony and they learned a few songs for cocktail hour that we mentioned we liked. We cannot recommend ESQ enough and have gotten so many compliments from our family and friends on enjoying the music.”

Elegance string quartet was wonderful!! They played for our church ceremony, cocktail hour and also the DJ fusion for our reception. Not only was the music wonderful, but we absolutely loved working with Ray and Jenny.

- Olivia

The musicians were not only talented but also super professional and easy to work with. Ray and Jenny were spectacular. They played an amazing mix of pieces, and their energy brought so much life to our ceremony and reception. Our guests are still raving about how unique and memorable the music was. We couldn’t have asked for a better musical experience—highly recommend! They also listened to my dreams and vision of walking down the aisle to my favorite worship songs as well as performing stellar performances of my favorite songs. A no brainer to hire for your wedding!!!! Wish I could have been a guest to hear the whole procession, but I had to walk down the aisle.”

We were absolutely blown away by the Elegance Quartet. It was the most dreamy electric string quartet at our wedding! Their performance was beyond incredible, creating a sophisticated yet modern atmosphere that was perfect for our special day.

- Amanda

We provided them with a list of songs to align with our itinerary, and they executed everything perfectly. They even surprised us with clever renditions during our prize giveaways, which added a delightful touch to the event. Their string versions of modern pop songs were a hit, and the digital jukebox they brought allowed our guests to request songs, making the experience even more interactive and enjoyable. For our final event, a car giveaway, they took it to the next level with a spotlight and cold spark machines that created an unforgettable atmosphere.

I can’t recommend the Elegance String Quartet enough! They are phenomenal and would be a fantastic addition to any event. I would give them a 10/10 without hesitation!”

I recently had the pleasure of hiring the Elegance String Quartet for our company holiday party, and they absolutely exceeded our expectations! From the moment they began to play, their talent and professionalism shone through.

- Leslee

Not only did Ray put this Type A bride at ease with his attention to detail and timely follow-up, but the musicians were a phenomenal addition to our special day. Our friends particularly loved the strings rendition of “The Thong Song” and numerous other contemporary pieces while waiting for the processional to begin. For the actual ceremony, we selected classical pieces and they were beautiful. The team played a particularly stirring rendition of “Lord’s Prayer” as a tribute to loved ones passed that I will never forget. From start to finish, Ray and his team were a dream - I recommend them without hesitation and hope to have an occasion to utilize their services again.”

I cannot recommend Ray Bicolli and Elegance Quartet enough. We had the string trio perform the ceremony music at our wedding this summer and they were wonderful.

Jenny and Ray were so friendly and helpful with the planning and made the whole experience so smooth. We received so many compliments about how beautiful the ceremony turned out. We are so happy we went with ESQ!”

We had the pleasure of having ESQ perform for our wedding ceremony and it was exactly what we were envisioning for our special day!

- Kevin

- Nathan

They played for our cocktail hour and wow’ed guests and us with their renditions of pop, rock, musicals and more! There repertoire is so varied and they are always open to new songs and artists. Working with Jenny to organize the day, have her do some MC duties, and coordinate was the easiest thing - she’s like working with a great friend that wants to make your day a special one. Ray organized and wrote out two new songs for us - our special first dance and our entrance song - both were superb! Communication was always professional and quick, not to mention easy. And the music - again, can not say enough good things about their amazing abilities to take any song and give it their own interpretation while constantly wowing not only us but all of our guests!”

“Wow”, “phenomenal” and “super cool” - all comments given by guests at our brunch wedding listening to ESQ and their amazingly talented musical skills. One guest was like “they just played lady Gaga…on strings!!”. We can’t recommend them enough - the flare and ambience they created for the wedding ceremony and prelude were fantastic.
