I contacted Piemonte Strings over a month ago to perform at a Garden Party I was hosting on June 29th. When I spoke with the young lady she asked how I heard of them. I mentioned a fthat I hew years ago I heard them perform at a wedding at Belle Grove Plantation in Middletown, Virginia. I got basic information and said I would call back the next to confirm which I did. The lady asked for my address which I gave her for the event and to mail me a contract. After 10 days the contract never arrived. I called and she laughed and said,"my handwriting is not so good maybe it comes back to me." I gave the contract another day or so and I called her back as I was getting worried since she said she needed a signed contract and deposit. I offered her my email but she said she wasn't some where she could write it down, she then suggested I wait and pay her in full the day of the event and sign the contract then. I keep saying "she" as I never did catch her name as her English is bad. The woman then went on to say they would be at my event 30 minutes ahead of time to set up and that they needed to be out of the sun and also they would need 3 backless chairs. I bought a tent for them and rented 3 ballroom chairs. The day of the event I get a phone call 15 minutes before they were to play saying she was at Belle Grove Plantation! I told her they were at the wrong location and she immediately became very indignant and stated that she was deducting the travel time form Belle Grove to my party from the playing time. I told her this was unacceptable as this was her mistake not mine. I never gave her an address to Belle Grove she was given the address to my house! After I said I would not accept her new terms she then began arguing with me about the contract which I never received and said I would have to pay in cash which I found very insulting. I decided at this point to terminate the conversation and told her to forget it. I am so disappointed with Piemonte Strings this was a very special party for my visiting family from Atlanta and we were very embarrassed about the empty tent and chairs. We did not have time to take it down as we were so close to the beginning of the party. I would never recommend this group to anyone as they are so unorganized. I was willing to work with their bad directions and was understanding about them being late but did not feel I should have been penalized and insulted.
Piemonte String Trio played for our wedding ceremony in Novemeber! I was able to meet with the main coordinator Maryory and she customized my every detail to our special day, down to cutting out parts of a song to my liking to walk down the aisle to! Even when it came to last minute song changes for the prelude, they were very understanding and accomodating to our needs and wants! Very professional and amazing artists! I highly recommend Piemonte Strings to play for any event! Our guests have not stopped talking about how excellent the music was at our wedding! Thank you Piemonte Strings for being such a wonderful part of our very special day! It TRULY wouldnt have been the same without you guys! You are the most talented group of strings I have ever experienced! Thank You!!!
