“Dimitri did the music for my wedding ceremony. From the first conversation to the actual ceremony, I had absolutely no doubts that he would be fantastic. He was very helpful in choosing the music to set the tone for my wedding and it was very comforting to talk to someone who made me feel like all of my needs and expectations would be met. The music he played for the ceremony was absolutely beautiful and everyone has said that it was one of the most beautiful weddings they have been to. I couldn't be more pleased with the music and highly recommend them for any occasion. He really made my wedding very special and extremely elegant.”

“Everyone was amazed how beautiful the music was for the ceremony of my daughter's wedding. There was never a silent time in the ceremony. I had people from out of town that said, "I have never been to a ceremony so wonderful and I've been to a lot of weddings!" The Fine Arts Ensemble had music for us to choose from and we added a few other songs. It was perfect! Thank You!”

Mary

“Fine Arts Ensemble was amazing at my wedding and their music was absolutely beautiful. I did a piano/cello duet and it was breathtaking. Dimitri is extremely timely in responding to any questions you may have via email or phone. He was very flexible in scheduling a time for the rehearsal. The duet showed up on time for the ceremony and were dressed for the occasion and conducted themselves in a very professional manner. I highly recommend Fine Arts Ensemble for anyone wanting quality, professional musicians for their wedding.”

Elaine

“Excellent service- and beautiful and outstanding music.”

Peggy

“I found Fine Arts Ensemble on the internet and decided to take a chance with them. I was a bit nervous in the beginning because it was my wedding, I'd only heard their music from the website plus they would have to travel about an hour to get to me. Just so you know, EVERYTHING WAS WONDERFUL! Just talking to Dimitri and getting everything(esp. the music)together was a breeze. Very professional, worth every penny, very patient, easy to get in contact with and my harpist did an excellent job for the ceremony. It was beautiful and all of my guests loved it. I'm so glad I went with this vendor(FAE) and would highly recommend them to anyone.”

Sherronda

“We were very pleased with our Cellist. Everything was wonderful! Dimitri was easy to work with and did everything he promised to do. We loved the addition of a Cellist at the wedding. Thank you!”

Teresa

“Dimitri and his wife were excellent performers. Since I paid for my wedding myself, I was on a very tight budget which meant that I spent less money for my wedding services. Dimitri treated me like I had paid millions for his service. He was very attentive to all of my needs and talked me through every step of the process. I did not need to chase after him on my wedding night to make sure it was the way I wanted. What bride has time to do that? It may sound crazy, but I even wrote simple lists of what I wanted and the other services I hired still did things their own way. My wedding was the most important night of my life so far. I would recommend anyone to hire Dimitri at Fine Arts Ensemble for any occasion especially if you want to hire someone and have no stress on your special occasion. They will show up and they will do exactly what you want. Also, I was very impressed with Dimitri's knowledge on the many parts of a wedding ceremony where music should be played.”

Theresa

“Our ceremony was in the garden which sometimes creates a problem getting people "ready" for the ceremony. The music set the stage for the event and set the mood for our kids' wedding. The musicians took a lot of care to ensure that the couple had the music that they wanted, but gave them direction as to what would be appropriate for the different times of the wedding. I have received numerous compliments on the music selection and beautiful "sound".”

Nick

“Dimitri was very professional, pleasant to work with and adapted to our needs very well. A very nice guy with talent!”

Doug

“Dimitri is a very talented musician and we were thrilled to have him play our ceremony as part of a string quartet that he organized. His rates are very reasonable and he did a great job of custom arranging a number of our favorite songs. In addition, he was prompt is responding to our barrage of emails/calls and always gave helpful suggestions. This helped to keep us calm in the months and weeks leading up to our wedding and on the big day itself. I don't always provide feedback but when I do... it's because the vendor was excellent all around. You will not be disappointed!”

Jessie

“Hi brides, we came all the way from Hamburg/Germany to get married in Magic Nola. And our wedding was perfect, not least because of really fantastic and touching music performance by Dimitri and David (violin/cello), Despite of the fact we couldn't talk to them before and everything had to be arranged by mail-, they made all our wishes come true.Their music really touched our hearts and made that special moment unforgettable! High quality, perfect coherence to ceremony, professional arrangement: We can warmly recommend this ensemble ( as I've just done the day before), Once again: thank you so much David and Dimitri!”

Kathie

“I was incredibly happy with the Fine Arts ensemble from the minute I contacted them after seeing high ratings on the internet. Since I lived out of state it was wonderful to be able to talk to Demetri to make sure everything was ready. Demetri suggested songs that would go well together and was responsive to my questions. The two performs arrived early and were dressed formally and played while guests sat (starting in the rain turning quickly to New Orleans heat). The music was wonderful (although my poor planning led to a record 6 minute ceremony). The price was very reasonable for the quality received. This was my first point of contact for a destination wedding and it set a high bar. I would definitely recommend using Fine Arts Ensemble!”

Danielle

“Dimitri was so easy to work with and helped me out with a last minute time crunch - He knew St Louis Cathedrals Guidelines as he had experience performing there before! Beautiful music, Thanks again Dimitri! It was the cherry on the cake for us!”

Alexa

“Dimitri was very friendly and his performance was fantastic. It was nice to not have to worry about our music once we hired Dimitri. I would definitely recommend him.”

Thomas

“I was very pleased with the Fine Arts Ensemble. They have performed for two weddings in my family. The music was beautiful. Dimitri is easy to work with and very helpful. I will hire them again if I have the occasion requiring classical music.”

Jeannette

“Fine Arts Ensemble was an wonderful company to work with. Their musicians were very professional, in their appearance as well as in their performance. They were very easy to work with in selecting the music and musicians to play at our Venue. We had numerous people tell us how much more special our day was with the Violin and Harp playing during the ceremony. I would suggest this company to anyone planning their special wedding.”

Danielle

“Our experience with them was, by far, the easiest part of the wedding planning. The communication/preparation was simple and clear. They are a professional group and it shows in every way. Words cannot begin to express the quality and beauty of their performance. Our guests could not stop commenting on the beautiful music. If you are looking for a string quartet for your event, you need not look any further. They were amazing! Thank you so much Dimitri, you surpassed our expectations!”

Kimberly

“Very elegant music! Exactly what we were looking for in our extravagant wedding!”

Paulina

“Excellent musicians! Very pleased with their performance and assistance picking out songs. Very professional in appearance. Would definitely recommend.”

Emilie

“I was very pleased with the Fine Arts Ensemble. They were timely in responding to my requests, they arrived on time for their performance and were dressed appropriately for a wedding. I was quite pleased with the responses and music they offered my guests. They were in all a fabulous find and I would hire them again in a minute!”

Erin

“FAE was AMAZING! The ceremony music was absolutely flawless and I'm pretty sure they're responsible for making all the guests cry (in a good way, lol). I chose the piano and cello duet and it sounded wonderful. Book them... you (and your guests) won't be disappointed!”

Dana

“Dimitri was very easy to work with. I had concerns about what to walk down the aisle to in a tiny chapel (which meant a short, short walk to the alter), and Dimitri helped with a knowledgeable choice (Jesu... it worked perfectly). The prelude music was lovely as well (Dimitri's selections). And my own selection of Sheep May Safely Graze played during communion/interlude was played beautifully.”

Susan

“Fine Arts Ensemble was fantastic! Thanks guys!”

Allison

“We could not have ask for any better music for the church. Everyone was very impressed. They were very easy to work with so we could focus on other things for the wedding.”

Elaine

“I just wanted to tell how much everyone raved about your musicians and the singer. Even Father Mike said he has never served a more elegant wedding. Your company is outstanding. Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart. You made my dream come true.”

Barbara

“Hi Dimitri, Thank you for making my wedding so wonderful. Everything was perfect. My wedding guests are still raving about the ceremony music. I filled out the survey and gave FAE a glowing review. My only regret is that I did not have time to speak with you longer after the ceremony. I was so glad to meet you in person, finally. I wish you the best of luck and great success in the future.”

Ann

“Dimitri... what can I say? THANK YOU! Thank you so much for the wonderful music. Everyone has been telling me how beautiful it was. Makes me so happy. Beautiful!”

Miranda

“Thank you, and your wife, for making our wedding so special. We just watched the video, and the music sounded so pretty and everything that I had hoped for! We are so pleased and thank you so much for all of your hard work.”

Amanda

“I just wanted to drop an email and say a quick thank you for the music at the wedding. I think that everything went together beautifully. You were a joy to work with, and so very professional. Thank you again for making everything perfect!”
