Review Centre: Bands & Ensembles

"I could not have asked for a better band for my wedding - thanks very much guys, I would be happy to recommend you to anyone. Many people have taken the time to tell me that they really enjoyed listening and/or dancing to your music, so I can only add their endorsements to mine. Thanks, Debbi (and John!)"

"We had the South Manchester String Quartet to play for my entrance and during the signing. They added real emotion to the day before I had even walked down the aisle. Guests were crying before I came in – I think without them the atmosphere could have been a bit flat and people would certainly have been bored. My favourite part of the wedding has to be walking down the aisle – I don’t think I will ever get butterflies like that again! And – Glen cried! Now that’s a first."

"The singer does an incredible job of capturing the essence of Pink, but the live band really add to the experience, delivering a real "concert" feel. Excellent all round."

"Nicky, Jake and Richie provided exactly the blend of music we were hoping for to entertain a fun loving mixed age group at our 50th wedding anniversary. It offered rich entertainment while allowing guest to converse and mingle - and later on the opportunity for hitting the dance floor, even at our advanced age! We would happily hire them again and recommend them to our friends. Paul & Rosie"

"Warwickshire Strings were amazing! We had so much excellent feedback about them from the guests at our wedding. but perhaps the most significant was our photographer who said they were the best he had ever heard, that coming from a professional who has attended hundreds of weddings and must have heard many different quartets was a great complement. We had a wonderful wedding and Warwickshire Strings helped to make it truly special. They invited us to see them at a performance a few weeks before the wedding so we could meet them and discuss our choice of music which was really helpful, they were friendly, professional and above all excellent musicians."

"We were absolutely delighted with Astri Strings (Victoria & Jude), who played at our wedding. From the very start, communication with them was so easy and stress-free — they were professional, warm, and accommodating to every request. Their repertoire is incredible, covering everything from classical and jazz through to modern-day hits. One particularly special touch was when they learnt and performed the song I wanted to walk down the aisle to, even though it wasn’t on their list. That meant the world to me, and it was played so beautifully. They performed seamlessly as our guests arrived, throughout the ceremony, and into the drinks reception, creating a lovely atmosphere from start to finish. So many of our family and friends commented on how stunning the music was, and we couldn’t agree more! We would 100% recommend Astri Strings to anyone planning a wedding or any other celebration. They were an absolute joy to work with and such a memorable part of our special day. Ayesha & Fred x August 2025 Worton Hall, Witney "

"Hi, Bigtits Steel Band You were great - well received. Guests really loved the vibe you gave as they came from the church. Lots of positive comments. You got the party going. I'm waiting for photos to come back as hope to be able to send on some to you. This might be a few weeks. Very easy to work with. I liked the good communication before the event. Thanks again - but will hopefully send some photos later on. Keep on good work."

"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 Andrea x"
