Many thanks

Hi Rachel,

Just wanted to say a big thank you from Sonali and myself for your performances on Monday!

We were very impressed by the all the entrance arrangements and Sonali was over the moon that you were able to play dangerously in love for her song!

Thanks again,

Gavin

Dear Rachel,

I am sorry that I did not get to meet, greet , say thank you and goodbye to the quartet. The beginning of the day did not quite go as planned which led to a follow on of change in plans. This left us somewhat disconcerted and by the time we got to the library I think the allocated time for yourselves had elapsed.
The music upstairs was beautiful and the guests I spoke to after told me that the music that you kindly played downstairs was wonderful.
Leah really loved her entrance music which meant a lot to her.

Thank you so much for the beautiful music.

Kind regards

Anwaar and Leah

Hi Rachel and every member at Palatine String Quartet,

Firstly we just want to say a big thank you to all of you!

On a personal level, I was very touched by your interpretation of "from this moment on" while Marta was walking the wedding aisle. I would love to hear it again. If at some point you upload it to your website please let us know so I can download it.

You played amazingly well "Viva la vida" and "Marry you". A lot of our guests came and told us proudly exactly all the songs you played at the ceremony.

Thank you again for being part of our special day.

Malek and Marta

Hi Rachel

I'm so sorry this has taken me so long to get to you! Kieran and I immediately left for our honeymoon and cut off contact with the world.

I wanted to say thank you so much for making my wedding day soooo perfect! The music was beautiful and we have had so many wonderful compliments on the stunning job you did. I'm sorry I didn't get to come and say thank you in person, the day went by in a whirlwind but I did take moments to stop and listen to you during our wedding breakfast.

Thank you again!

Best wishes
Hannah

Dear Rachel,
Just a short note to say many thanks to you and the rest of the quartet for the performance last Saturday. The music was beautiful. Sincere apologies for my slightly delayed entrance - last minute crisis with a small baby but we made it just in time!
Many thanks for all your efforts.
All best,
Rebecca & Adam

Hi Rachel,

I just wanted to say thank you so much to you and the two other ladies who were performing with you. The guests are still talking about how fantastic you all were which also makes me very happy. It really was a stunning performance, you made our night to extremely special. Thank you so much again.

Take care,

Kind regards

I just wanted to say a massive thank you for your gorgeous playing at our reception at Syon park conservatory on 21.08.2022.

It was so wonderful and everyone thoroughly enjoyed it.

I wish I’d been able to thank you in person before you left!

Thank you for everything and all the best for the future.

Just wanted to say a massive thank you to you and the team for playing so beautifully at our wedding on the 7th of May. You were incredible and so grateful you were able to be so flexible and play a bit earlier! Meant a lot! The guests were so impressed with the music!

Massive thanks!!

Aaliya and Jake

Hello Rachel,

I just wanted to say thank you so much to you and the rest of the quartet for playing such beautiful music at Kathy and Michael’s wedding, you really helped to create such a wonderful atmosphere.

I kept hearing snatches of your music from other rooms and it made me feel lovely and festive too! You did a great job during the ceremony making sure you played until exactly the right time.

If I am in your area again I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend you to future clients.

Have a wonderful Christmas

Hi Rachel, just wanted to message to say a big thank you to you and the rest of the quartet for Friday. Not sure if you heard me shouting thank you from the balcony as you left but we thought you were fantastic and have had so many great comments from our guests! Wishing you all the best. Matt

Dear Rachel
Sorry it’s taken me forever to contact you with my sincere thanks for such perfect wedding music.
It made my Mum cry through the whole thing.
Everyone had the most fantastic time.
So thank you, thank you, thank you. So much.
(Apologies for not even seeing you in person to say this before you left.)

Best Wishes
Vicky

Dear Rachel,

Just a quick email of thanks from Paul and I!

Thank you for helping us to make our day such a special one. We loved all the music you played and it created such a wonderfully calm and relaxed atmosphere which the guests really enjoyed.

I hope you have had some free time to enjoy the summer a little.

Kind regards,

Jordana

Thank you SO much to yourself and your wonderful team for creating a magical atmosphere for us on our wedding day. From the Godfather entrance for the groom (much to the delight of our guests), to my entrance of Chasing Cars. We absolutely loved it! And our guests too. It was the perfect setting for our civil and reception drinks. The Bollywood tracks were an absolute hit!

I’m glad my husband and I were able to meet and thank you on the day itself. Thank you for adding such elegance with your beautiful music to our event, it really was a dream come true!

We will definitely recommend you to family and friends going forward.

Thank you again and best wishes.

Palatine String Quartet played for us this weekend at my daughter’s engagement and graduation garden celebration. I can’t say enough good things about them. Talented, creative, very flexible on repertoire, and a joy to have here. Our guests loved it. We’ll certainly have them back at the first opportunity.

Palatine quartet were absolutely brilliant, they responded quickly to an inquiry we made, were happy to learn a new piece for my wife to walk down the aisle to, punctual and professional, our guests absolutely loved them! We had their music played from the service until we sat down for the meal and it was so nice to have in the background while everyone was milling around on the lawn! I would 100% recommend for your special day, amazing musicians that added a real touch of class to out big day! Thank you Rachel and everyone else ?

Chris and I just wanted to say a massive thank you to the quartet who played at our wedding on Sunday. They were absolutely amazing. Everyone loved them and they really added to the atmosphere. They were exactly what we wanted for our special day. Thank you all so much!

Kind regards,
Kerry and Chris

It was a pleasure to work with Palatine String Quartet. They were easy to work with and specially arranged a score for me to enter down the aisle, which was absolutely beautiful and magical. My guests loved their music and they took their cues very well. Overall very happy with the service thank you Palatine string quartet!

Rachel,
Thanks so much for playing your lovely music this past weekend.
We had so much fun and you made our service extra special.
Best,
Mia

Thank you very much for playing at our wedding. You sounded beautiful.

Apologises that we didn’t get a chance to say thank you in person, we were quite busy whilst you were there.

Kind regards,

Sam

I booked the quartet for a memorial service for my mother. Their renditions of pieces that meant a lot to us were excellent. Their professionalism was first-rate - very much recommend them.

Thank you so much for coming. The playing was outstanding and it meant a huge amount to me & my family and friends.

We just wanted to say thank you to you all for Thursday. You were all brilliant and you helped make the ceremony and reception really special - we loved having you there and have received so many compliments about you from our guests.

We’re really sorry we didn’t get to formally introduce ourselves on the day - unfortunately we were just so busy.

Thanks again,
Anthony & Courtney

Hi Rachel,

Thank you so much for playing for us on one the most important moments in our lives, our guests enjoyed the pieces and it bring up the ambience a lot. Both Daisy and I regret not having enough time to enjoy your music!

With warm regards,

Kennis & Daisy

Thank you so much! I wish I could have been in the room while the guests were waiting to hear more !
I did receive feedback that our guests recognized some of the Indian songs and they were all complimentary.
I thought you and your team were wonderful!
Would love to do it all over again!

Many thanks to you all. I had some nice comments from guests on your performance and I was very impressed, great sound.

Good luck for the future, and once again thank you, you certainly enhanced the event.

Regards,
Steve

Dear Rachel

Just a short note to say thank you for yours and the quartets involvement in our wedding last month. It really did add a quality to the day which we loved and our guests thought you guys were super! We also loved the rendition of A Million Dreams so thank you so much for that!

Sorry we didn’t get much of a chance to say hello on the day, but a big thank you again.

Anna & Gavin

Many thanks to you and the girls. The music sounded fantastic and was ideal for our event. We hope to have you play for us again sometime in the future.

Thank you so much. Your music was amazing. I would happily recommend you to anyone who is thinking of having some music at their wedding. Thanks again.

Thank you so much for the beautiful music in the town hall and reception - we loved it.

I just wanted to drop you a short note for making our wedding day so special. We are truly grateful.

Thank you for everything Rachel, unfortunately I didn’t get to meet you but I love love loved the music and the energy you brought to our special day.
Many thanks!

Dear Rachel -
What a wonderful sound you all made!
It was such a gorgeous and luxurious art form to have on the day which could not have been lovelier.
One of my enduring memories will be you all clattering out of the room with your music stands so that we could hear you properly!
So many thanks and love to you all
From Emma (Dame Emma Thompson)

Thank you ever so much for your contribution to a great event. The quartet was amazing, the timing perfect and it highly contributed to the success of the event. I apologise for not having more time for you on the day. I appreciate your professionalism and look forward to working with you again. I will most certainly recommend you for future events. Please pass on my regards to the members of the quartet.

On behalf of Netlaw Media, I want to thank you and the rest of the quartet in helping us create a wonderful event on 28th November at the Grange St Paul's Hotel in London. The feedback we have and are continuing to receive for the White Tie Winter Ball has been fantastic, from both our sponsors and guests. We look forward to working alongside you again in the future. Many thanks again for your assistance.

The Girls were AMAZING! Thank you so much for making Katie’s day so special. They were waiting for the signal to start Katie’s music for coming down the aisle, which somehow got lost and they had to keep on playing. But quite honestly it added to the beauty of the day! I have never seen Tom looking so nervous! Annie in the front had a major stroke last year and her life has changed for ever. She just loved listening to your music. For that I thank you very much. Best regards x Sylvia

Now my feet are back on the ground post-wedding I just wanted to send a massive THANK YOU to you and the amazing quartet who played at my wedding a couple of weeks ago. They were absolutely brilliant and we had a lot of compliments from people who loved the songs they played! It got our wedding off a beautiful start and helped create a day we'll always remember.

We are still on Cloud 9 from the weekend but I did want to say a HUGE thankyou for playing for us at the weekend. The day was absolutely perfect and many people commented on your excellent production, it was exactly what we wanted - brilliant! Thankyou for making it the best day of our lives!

Unfortunately, we didn't really get to speak to you at our wedding on 20th June. So, I just wanted to say a big thank you to you for playing at our wedding. The music was great and we and our guests really enjoyed it! All the best!

I would like to say a massive thank you to you and the other ladies for a truly magical performance on my wedding day. I am very sorry that I didn't get the chance to come and say thank you in person- I was tied up taking endless photos with family and friends, but I did certainly enjoy it alot! You created a really romantic atmosphere, and I must say, I absolutely loved A thousand years by Christina Perri. It is one of my favourite songs and it was just beautiful!The guests also thoroughly enjoyed the music- thanks for keeping them entertained. All the best to you and thank you once again.

The 4 ladies arrived and were lovely and very efficient. Their attitude to the event and staff was excellent! Excellent performance. Played a selection of music both modern and contemporary! Good value for money!

We are currently on honeymoon with very little phone reception but we just wanted to say a massive thank you for putting on an amazing performance! You didnt let us down! I can't wait to see the videos now. All our friends were impressed!

We would like to say a huge thank you to you and the girls for playing at our wedding in September. It really was the perfect way to walk down the aisle. Your music was beautiful and we received so many compliments from our guests about how great you were during the church service and reception. Thank you so much for making it feel so special. I'm just sorry I didnt get a chance to introduce myself to you on the day, it flew by!

Thank you very much for playing at our wedding. It was very beautiful. Take care and a Happy New Year to you all. Kind regards
Andrea and Hardy.

Merry Christmas! I just wanted to drop you a note to say thank you for the performance on Sunday 21st. Your music was truely beautiful and my guests commented about how lovely it was to have a string quartet. Thank you again and best wishes for the new year.

I just wanted to extend a massive thank you for playing at our wedding on Saturday. You were fantastic! I will never forget the look on my dads face as he started dancing immediately when you played Mr Blue Sky. All the guests very much enjoyed it! I'm so sorry we didn't get a chance to say goodbye when you left I was swept up and didn't know if I was coming or going for most of the day! Thank you so much. Best wishes.

Thank you so much again for the beautiful music you played at our engagement party. It created the perfect atmosphere and we received so many compliments! We'd be delighted to reference you in the future and look forward to giving you a call for the wedding! Thanks again and please send our regards to the entire group!

A big thank you from Misbah my daughter and the rest of the family. We all loved the music. It complimented our evening very nicely. Many of our guests commented on your performance. They enjoyed the repertoire you played very much. Once again thank you very much.

Brilliant performance by the quartet,they really listened to our song choices and provided the perfect backdrop to our ceremony. Very talented,professional players.

A wonderful string quartet. Amenable and professional. Willing to go above and beyond to make your event exactly as you envision it.

Just a quick note to say thank you so much for playing at our wedding last weekend in Kew! Everyone commented on how amazing you were and I can't help but agree!

The girls turned up promptly with a minimum of fuss and just produced a delightful set. My only complaint was that they didn't stop to say goodbye so I could thank them personally! Thank you ladies!

The quartet arrived on time and worked with the very hot weather constraints exceedingly well, they played exactly what we asked for and Rachel clearly ensured this had been well communicated. The quartet managed to get others interested in their music too. Would definitely use them again.
