As the bride I was not able to actually hear ALL of the music that was played pre-ceremony and during the procession - but according to my guests, they were awesome! And as far as service and responsiveness, Steven could not have been nicer or more helpful. I can't wait to see my video so I can hear all of the beautiful music that they played...but if the guests' responses are any indication, this cello and guitar duo is fantastic!!

We could not have been any happier with Penguin music and the guitar and cello duo. We had them play for our ceremony and during dinner and they were able to create the beautiful and elegant ambiance that we had envisioned. Regardless if they were playing new songs or classical music the music was always beautiful and perfect for what was occurring during the evening. I never write reviews, but I could not help myself given what job they did to create the perfect night for us. You are insane not to book them for your next event!!

Penguin Music is an incredibly professional duo.They performed a wide range of music for our wedding and reception. They are great classical muscians and played beautiful classical and popular music that we selected with them for our wedding. For the reception they also did popular music and swinging jazz to boot! They are really classy and great guys too. Everyone loved them at our wedding! Kevin C Burke and Miguel...

Hi there Steven and Chris. Just wanted to write a review to convey how amazing you guys really are, and just to pass on our huge thanks to you both for making our special day on July 26th all the more special. You guys have such an amazing talent and we were both in awe as to how you managed to re-arrange two songs in a matter of weeks to sound absolutely beautiful. Everyone (and we truly mean everyone!) commented how fantastic you both sounded – we could've listened to you both all day long! You were always prompt in replying to emails and the distance between us here in the UK and yourselves didn't present any problems in arranging the music for the day. We will definitely recommend you both to friends and family who maybe thinking of getting married in New York. You were both very professional as well as calm and collected given how hot it was in Central Park on that particular afternoon! Many thanks once again for making our special day all the more special and good luck to you both in the future. Oh, and before we forget – you've made it onto a full-page in our wedding photograph album. All the best for Penguin Music, take care and kind regards, Heather and Mark Bateman.

I really can't say enough great things. Steven was so responsive and helpful and most importantly everything went perfectly at the wedding. They were so professional and the cello and guitar combo sounded amazing. Again, they were awesome and Steven was so helpful from beginning to end.

I have nothing but good things to say about this guitar and cello duo! Prior to our wedding Steven took the time to meet with us and discuss music options. He offered to even learn two extra songs to play at our ceremony as long as we gave him the heads up first. And sure enough, we got to hear a guitar and cello version of Journey's "Don't Stop Believing," just like in the movie the Wedding Singer, and "Unchained Melody" by the Carrie Brothers...and both songs sounded beautiful and were so original! Our guests loved the music during our ceremony as well as cocktail hour. I would recommend Penguin Wedding Music to anyone who can afford it because they are truly talented and their professionalism is apparant. Steven and Chris came to our wedding on time with plenty of time to set up, dressed professionally, and were a pleasure to do business with throughout the whole process.

The guys were real friendly and helpful, asking me questions about the details that I hadn't thought of yet. My husband wanted some classical pieces during ceremony, and I wanted something more modern, and we were happy with the excellent musicians who could do them all!! We hired a 2-piece, a guitar and a cello, and were happy that they were punctual and professional. I've heard of accidents during ceremony, like a broken guitar string, or music not coming out of amplifiers, but these guys got to the site early and checked everything out so we don't have to worry about it. Good thing, because we had plenty of other things to worry about. We highly recommend these guys!!!!

Penguin Music is extremely professional and has a fantastic sound. They were flexible enough to learn a couple of obscure songs that they didn't already know and performed them flawlessly!
