Chicago Pop String Quartet & Best Chicago Wedding Band


Interactive, immersive, and completely spontaneous 
We brought percussion right into the center of the dance floor — and then this happened.
Because the best weddings give your guests a story to tell

Chicago Pop String Quartet & Best Chicago Wedding Band


They did a quiet run-through before guests arrived.
Then the room filled, the band went live, and suddenly the exact same dance felt completely different ️
And that lift right at the key change? Absolutely nailed it 🥰🫶

Chicago Pop String Quartet & Best Chicago Wedding Band


The first time we spoke with Cecilia + Trey, they told us pop strings were one of the things they were most excited about for their wedding day — and they wanted that energy woven through the experience from the very beginning ️

Two violinists welcomed guests at street level.
A string trio kept the pop + rock going upstairs.
Then all five strings came together for the ceremony:

Dreams / The Cranberries — Trey + the wedding party
Here Comes the Sun / The Beatles — Cecilia + her dad
Love On Top / Beyoncé — recessional

Cecilia later told us, “When I heard Dreams I started weeping!!!” 🥹️
And by the time she walked in with her dad to Here Comes the Sun, she was absolutely beaming 🤍

Chicago Pop String Quartet & Best Chicago Wedding Band


The first time we spoke with Cecilia + Trey, they told us that pop strings were one of the things they were most excited about for their wedding day — so we knew their soundtrack had to be just as fun, bold + unexpected as they are 

The pop-string vibes started before guests even stepped inside and carried straight through the recessional.

For an immersive arrival, two violinists welcomed guests at street level, elevated on pedestals and playing pop + rock favorites. Upstairs on the 17th floor, our string trio kept the momentum going with Taylor Swift, Chappell Roan, Lizzo, Harry Styles, Beyoncé + more. Then, by processional time, all five string players came together:

Dreams / The Cranberries for Trey + the wedding party.
Here Comes the Sun / The Beatles for Cecilia + her dad.
And Love On Top / Beyoncé for their first steps back down the aisle as a married couple — upbeat, joyful, and completely on brand for the most delightful couple ️

This whole celebration felt unmistakably Cecilia + Trey, and that was no accident. Jennifer Price @event_Shoppe_chi brought their vision to life in every detail.

And just two days later, this incredible wedding was featured in PEOPLE 

Congratulations, Cecilia + Trey. We loved being part of a day that felt completely YOU 🥰

Such a pleasure working alongside this stellar vendor team:
