Celebration•Reviewed on May 2, 2016•From New York City, NY

We booked Dolce Ensemble for our Manhattan church garden wedding ceremony and reception and could not be more pleased about our choice. Susan was wonderful in helping us to identify the music for the processional and recessional as well as the choices for the reception. Susan beautifully arranged complex musical pieces to maximize the beauty of the quartet's sound. The quartet were beautifully dressed and provided an elegant and professional presence at our wedding. This is an excellent group of talented people who helped our celebration to be a graceful and joyous affair through the music they presented.

We were absolutley delighted with The Dolce Ensemble. Our event required a unique combination of music ~Russian Classical and American folk - a seemingly impossible request that Dolce, without batting an eyelash, immediatley provided a suggested playlist for our consideration. In addition, we wanted to have a classical guitarist with the ensemble - voila!- they had one! They were in communication with us every step of the way and handle last minute security issues with ease. We recommend them highly and would use them again! Deep appreciation to The DOlce Ensemble!

My wife and I were so excited and pleased to have the Dolce Ensemble Quartet play at our wedding at the Bryant Park Grill this last Sunday. They did an absolutely fantastic job - they were extremely easy to work with, they showed up on time and played the exact pieces I requested perfectly. Several of our guests commented about how impressive the quartet was. They even learned and played a piece that was previously not in their repertoire just for me. Look no further than the Dolce Ensemble for your quartet needs - they will not disappoint. Thanks Susan!!

We were so happy with The Dolce Ensemble. Susan was a pleasure to work with. We have received so many compliments from our guests regarding their performance during our cocktail reception. We have already recommended them to many of our friends and family. Their performance was unique and elegant.

The Dolce Ensemble group was the perfect pairing for our wedding. Susan was extremely professional and prompt. Throughout the entire planning period, her communication was excellent and she worked in every song that we wanted to hear. Her team showed up on time, played beautifully and made our wedding night truly magical. I would highly recommend the Dolce Ensemble team to anyone looking for a tip top team.

The Dolce Ensemble made our wedding ceremony very special. They were easy and seamless to work with, accommodating every song request. They are incredibly talented and brought tears to the eyes of our wedding guests. Having the Dolce Ensemble there made me feel so comfortable that the ceremony would run smoothly and beautifully.

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on May 5, 2014•From Somerset, NJ

I hired the Dolce Ensemble to play during my wedding ceremony in Somerset, NJ. Throughout the process, Susan was easy to work with and the group was flexible to my needs. Susan sent me the group's repertoire in advance, but when I didn't find exactly what I wanted, they agreed to play a variation of one song, as well as another that wasn't on the list at all. The group also played an accompaniment to a performer during the ceremony. In preparation, Susan thoughtfully emailed an mp3 of the arrangement for the performer to practice with. All in all, i highly recommend the Dolce Ensemble.

The Dolce Ensemble was the perfect touch to our wedding ceremony. Their talents and professionalism are certainly more than 5 stars. They took modern songs and made them sound spectacular on classical string instruments. And, Susan is a pleasure to work with. We will definitely keep them in mind for future events!!

My husband and I booked the Dolce Ensemble for our wedding ceremony. Susan Leon was easily accessible by phone or email leading up to our event. Also the variety of music that she can play on the strings is endless. Most importantly she plays beautifully and was a great addition to our ceremony. I would highly recommend this group.

I booked the dolce ensemble to play at my sister's wedding ceremony as a surprised gift to her and her husband.My sister wanted to walk down the aisle with song a thousand years!! And Ms. Susan and the team made it possible!! When my sister heard the music being played, she said that the music sounded beautifully and was trying not to cry! Ms. Susan was easily contacted and response to my email like a speeding bullet..hehehe especially when there were changes with the song selections.My sisters wedding was on 10/10/13 til now everyones still talking about the music during ceremony.they are the best.p.s my mom and the guests loved the Ave Maria!!!

The group was really wonderful. We were uncertain in the beginning how the program would run. They were very sensitive and sensed what was happening. The music they chose was simply terrific and it was like having a personal professional concert really up close. I would highly recommend them.

Event•Reviewed on May 11, 2013•From Poughkeepsie, NY

I hired the Dolce Ensemble for Marist Fashion's Silver Needle Fashion Show cocktail hour. They came prepared and were very flexible with set-up and clean-up. They were such a pleasure to work with and let us pick all the songs we wanted played. Their wide variety really allowed us to fill the venue the way we wanted to. I would recommend them for any event!
