Reviews of Modern Strings

Sophie is amazing. 14 out of 10. She gave great advice before the event and helped make the speech fun and unforgettable with perfect accompaniment for several song quotes and references. Her attention to detail during the event actually helped us keep to schedule. For the best ever event you need great friends, venue, food and Sophie's Quartet.

Extremely helpful and extremely quick replies.
Took the stress out of the booking process for me, would highly recommend.

I hired Modern Strings as a surprise for our wedding day and they did not disappoint. From initial consultation, through to the song choices, Sophie was hugely helpful and accommodating.

We cannot thank them enough for making our day special – we had so many compliments about them from our wedding guests! We would highly recommend their services to anyone looking for an emotional, professional and beautiful addition to their day.

We are so glad we had the quartet at our wedding they sounded amazing. We have had so many comment from our guests to say how great they were and that they made the ceremony magical. Thank you very much from the stones

Modern Strings were punctual , very inobstrusive , played flawlessly all the music that we had asked for . They were well dressed and professional and just perfect for our daughters wedding in Farnham Castle , I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending them .

Modern Strings made our wedding that extra bit more special... absolutely loved hearing them play during the ceremony and created a fantastic atmosphere during our reception drinks. Thank you so much Modern Strings!

Modern Strings were a perfect addition to our wedding: they played all the songs we requested beautifully and were all smiles throughout the ceremony and reception. Couldn’t recommend them enough!

We cannot recommend Modern Strings enough. From booking the Trio months in advance and right up to our Wedding Day, communications with Sophie were great and we were made to feel nothing was too much trouble.

True professionals in every way, what an amazing contribution they made to our Wedding Ceremony and Drinks Reception. They set the exact tone we were looking for on our special day and our Guests were delighted to hear them play and still talk about them. Thank-you Modern Strings – we couldn’t have asked for more!

Modern Strings was a pleasure to work with for our big day. They were professional from the outset and had a huge choice of songs we could choose from. Anyone thinking of a string quartet or similar for their special day should look know further than these guys. They are brilliant.

Excellent! From start (initial contact and enquiry), to finish (performance), Modern Strings were a pleasure to work with. Sophie was very helpful and accomodating, she also offered a very competitive package, advising what would work in an honest way. She was always prompt with communications, and helped where she could. The team were punctual on the day, and played amazingly, guests loved it! Thanks to the team!

Modern Strings did a fantastic job at our wedding. I asked for a string trio. They followed my instructions to the letter and were very cooperative during the event and in the run up to it. They brilliantly played additional pieces of music that were not on their repertoire. They also beautifully played a mixture of classical and popular songs. All guests commented how well they played and what a fantastic idea it was to have a live trio at our wedding. The trio were smiley and extremely friendly and reliable on our wedding day. I would recommend their services to my best of friends and family and would employ their services again should I have another event. Very well done and thank you for making our special day even more special.

Modern Strings played at the marriage ceremony of our wedding. They had excellent and lovely suggestions for the music to be played, and were more than happy to play music of our choice. Total professionals who didn't give us a moment of worry, these team know their stuff. Ask them for suggestions on how your music choices can fit with timing on the day! Would definitely use again.

Modern Strings supplied a quartet to play for my birthday party. Dealing with them in advance was efficient and clear, and they played beautifully.

Thank you so much, you were all fantastic. You really started my birthday party off with style and every one thought you were brilliant. You added style and class to the evening and you are all very talented. Your range of repertoire is very good for all occasions. When I saw you playing at Somerset house I knew I wanted you at my 60th birthday and I hope I can get to see you again. Thank you!
