"We booked Stephen and Milka for our recent wedding and we were glad we did. Right through from the planning stages to the wedding itself, they were a pleasure to be involved with. They were easy to talk to and friendly both towards ourselves and our guests. We had many compliments from our guests and they certainly created the atmosphere that we envisaged. They were very accommodating with our requests, both for the ceremony itself and for the drinks reception . They are both very talented and performed the music to perfection. If you are planning a wedding or event I would highly recommend Fresh Duo."

"Dear Anne, I have just returned to the office from our honeymoon today! Just a short note at this point to thank you and your colleagues for your outstanding contribution to our wedding day. We enjoyed the string quartet very much, and had many compliments from guests (I hope your colleagues did too!) It helped to make our day truly special. Please pass on our thanks to the players. Best wishes Richard "

"Booked Deep Down Brass for our evening wedding entertainment. Great communication in advance of the day. Seamless set up and clear away on the day and worked really well in conjunction with a DJ. Very talented musicians and great set list. Guest also loved it and particularly enjoyed when they walked through the crowd with the instruments. Made everyone feel included even if they weren’t able to dance. Would absolutely recommend Deep Down Brass. They were superb"

"To our wonderful musicians! Thank you for the most memorable day on Friday to celebrate my parent's 50th wedding anniversary. The music was perfect - the harp drifted through the garden so wonderfully - and so many of our guests commented on how beautiful it was. Thank you for helping to create the perfect party atmosphere, and for both being so delightful to work with. Here's to next time!"

" Solo Cello Laura was amazing, she was so accommodating to my needs and doing a suprise performance outside for a proposal. She was also lovely and created the perfect moment for the proposal. Can't wait to have her play again at our wedding!"

"Thanks to Dahlia Music several of our guests described our wedding as having "Bridgerton Vibes", which we take as a massive compliment! As soon as we booked Dahlia they were in regular contact with us to ensure that everything was planned meticulously. The songs chosen for the ceremony were timed to perfection - even though we included our dog as the ringbearer and he was so excited that it took an extra 30 seconds to get the rings on his collar. Dahlia were also happy to include a new song in their repertoire, which meant a lot to some of our guests. They were professional throughout and many people commented on how much their music brought to the event. I cannot recommend them highly enough - thank you Dahlia for making our special day especial. ?"

"We booked Astri Strings for our celebration event at The Post Barn, Newbury. Jude was a delight to deal with during the booking stage, gave us a lovely pre-event call to check everything was in order and arrived as planned on the day. Jude and Vicki provided the perfect background music for our event with a gorgeous mix of Classical and Bridgerton style music to welcome guests arriving. Everyone appreciated having live musicians as they looked fabulous and sounded fantastic. Thank you both, from the WD Farmers team, for making our event extra special. July 2024 "

"Kathleen and her team were very professional, friendly and really flexible to accommodate our ever changing needs at our Christmas Tree and Grotto Launch. Their voices were beautiful and we wish them all the best for the future. Thank you from all of us at Magic of Foresters."

"Dear Sue Thank you and your group Scherzando for playing at my son's wedding. It was a wonderful day, in a wonderful setting, at Lilleshall Hall in the Duke of Sutherland suite and the music was perfect. As you know, my new daughter-in-law is Brazilian and her family were quite blown away by the whole day, so very different from how a wedding is conducted in Brazil and the beautiful music that you provided, quite stunned them, and added a very 'English' touch. We were particularly grateful for the 'extra' pieces you filled in with, when the bride was fashionably, if a little alarmingly 'late'. Also the wonderful care you took in talking over their choices and advising them on what would work best, at what point in the ceremony. If anybody is seeking to add that little something extra to their Wedding day, then I would certainly recommend that they engage you to play."
