  Made our wedding extra special

  Martha was a pleasure to work with! I liked that she zooms with you a few times instead of just emailing, it makes it seem much more personal.
  She was able to play every song we asked for and they were all perfect. 10/10 highly recommend!!

  Thank you Stephanie! Your wedding was beautiful and it was our honor to play for you! We admired the way you mixed your music selections to include your parents’ favorites as well as your own. Best wishes to you both!

  Marylee was incredible!

  From the moment I reached out to Marylee, she was responsive, professional, flexible and more than willing to work with us! We requested she pair with our family pianist, and without hesitation she was in! She worked very closely with my mother in law on the music arrangements and was so communicative along the way. She came to the wedding day well prepared and ready to put on a show! I would recommend Marylee to any bride looking for a skilled violinist on her special day. What a pleasure it was to work with her! 10/10 recommendation.

  willing and more than able!

  As a family of serious amateur musicians, we were worried about finding someone to play for our destination wedding in Naples. Marylee of Bonita Springs was flexible, responsive, accommodating and professional in all her correspondence and on the day of the wedding. I cannot imagine another musician that would have been more willing to work with us.
  I highly recommend her and her beautiful talent.

  Tammy, thank you so much for your thoughtful words! It was such a pleasure to be a part of a wedding where music was so integral. And such vast talent across your family and friends! Best wishes to Haley and Rick! :-)

  Amazing group!

  We are so happy with Bonita Strings and the music they provided for our ceremony and cocktail hour. They were incredibly helpful with planning and coordinating too! They went above and beyond to learn new specific requests we had and did it so beautifully. Truly so happy we had them as part of our special day!!!

  Amazing!!!

  Bonita Strings was great and braved a VERY cold day for us. They also learned a new song to accomodate a unique request. We can't recommend them enough!

  Excellent musicians

  The girls came out to a beach wedding. I originally wanted a quartet, but unfortunately the hotel I was having my wedding at said we were not allowed to have more than a trio.. They were able to accommodate me even with one less musician. That music sounded brilliant, and they play a at ray of Different genres. You would not be disappointed if you hired Bonita strings.

  Exceptional

  I hired Bonita Strings for my wedding on 11.12.22. Marylee was such a joy to work with! She was so responsive throughout the entire process. They have a wide selection of songs and are willing to play requests that are not on their list. The music added so much to my ceremony and cocktail hour! I received so many compliments on the music. I would definitely recommend Bonita Strings to any future bride!

  Love bonita springs!

  Marylee from Bonita Springs was ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL! I cannot say enough amazing things about her. She is so talented and added the perfect touch to my sister's wedding day. Her playlist was completely customizable. She even went out of her way to make Canon in D work for my sister's walk down the aisle, as she had just a short distance to walk. IT WAS PERFECT! My mom even told me how much she loved Marylee and what a calming and beautiful vibe she brought to the wedding ceremony. Marylee was a pleasure to work with. She responded to all emails in a timely manner and very budget friendly. I would recommend Marylee and Bonita Strings for any of your musical needs!

  Excellent Violinist 🎻

  Marylee was extremely talented, professional and very courteous as our violinist at our Celebration of Life held in a beautiful garden for our Beloved Family Member. Marylee had asked for special requests and delivered so many of our favorites so beautifully and professionally as we remembered, mourned, and said goodbye to our Special Loved One. Well done and very much appreciated. Thank you, Marylee. ❤️🙏🏻🎻

  Groundbreaking

  I hired two violinists for our event. The booking was very easy and professional. They arrived on time and played beautifully. They even researched songs that would fit the event without asking. I would highly recommend them for any event!

  Perfectly Phenomenal!

  We asked Bonita Strings to play at our beach ceremony on Captiva Island because their song list and samples they played on their site ranged from traditional to classical to current rock/pop - and, they were phenomenal at all of them!
  
  They played so beautifully - while guests arrived at the beach, when the bride squad arrived and then when I walked down the aisle to the theme from the 'Princess Bride'. Every time I watch the video, I cry when I hear their music, as it so wonderfully compliments the emotions of the event.
  
  We highly recommend Bonita Strings to play at any event you are planning - they are professional artists and make you smile when you hear them.

  Outstanding! Magnificent!

  Bonita Strings played at a fundraiser we held; we were looking for something upscale to give the event that little je ne sais quoi. They came highly recommended and did not disappoint! The music was sublime, and the ease and professionalism they provided in determining music selection and set-up, as well as their overall flexibility was very much appreciated. I would definitely use them again and recommend them highly to all.

  Amazingly talented, flexible and professional!

  I am so thankful to have worked with Marylee and Bonita Strings- they truly made our wedding ceremony so special. Given the current world we live in, there were an abundance of hurtles to get over in order to have our little wedding, and plenty of last minute changes. Marylee was extremely accommodating and helpful, as our original musician was unreachable weeks prior to our date. She accommodated us and was so helpful with music selections during such a stressful time. On top of venue and time changes, she was able to play a special Zelda song for us, which made our ceremony so memorable and fun!
  Thank you SO much, for braving the heat and playing our Zelda song, it was so epic and our friends loved it! As did we! You made our day so so special and unique!! We Can’t thank you enough, I would recommend this group to anyone and everyone!

  11/10 recommended!

  I can’t say enough about how amazing Bonita Strings is! We hired them for our wedding and were immediately so happy with our decision. They were very responsive and accommodating throughout the entire process. They even learned a few of our favorite songs for us!! We really loved the unique ambiance they provided for our ceremony!! My husband and I have been to 12 weddings together, and ours was the first with a string quartet. All of our guests were happily surprised to arrive with a glamorous string quartet playing in the background. If you don’t hire them for your wedding, you’ll regret it!

  Excellent experience!

  What an excellent experience for our community. The Bonita Springs quartet brought new life to our community center. We would certainly highly recommend this group for your special occasion.
