Review Centre: String Quartets

"Ebor Quartet played at our wedding last weekend at The Grand Hotel in York. They played for both our ceremony and cocktail hour and were absolutely stunning from start to finish. So many of our guests commented on their performance & our little 2 year old nephew couldn't get enough of them - applauding each time they finished a song! They really added that magical sparkle one wants at a wedding. Ebor were recommended by our venue and I can see why. From the moment we booked them, Conor was helpful and communicative via email, and easily adapted to any requests we had. We decided fairly late on in the planning process to extend cocktail hour out a little longer to ensure myself and my new husband would be able to enjoy time with our guests and Conor quickly assured me they'd be able to stay for the extended time & enabled us to make an extra payment for the added time. They honoured all requests we had when it came to song choices (eg: My Girl for the aisle walk, and we wanted Vivaldi's Spring to open cocktail hour but were otherwise flexible on the order of our chosen songs) They also provided a bit of guidance where relevant - helpful when one doesn't book these sorts of things on a regular basis! Overall - I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Ebor - if you're thinking about booking them, go for it ✨️ Our guests are still talking about them! 💙"

Thank you so much for your wonderful feedback, Sbiqa! I'm glad to hear you enjoyed the performance. No worries at all about not being able to greet me—I'm just happy to have been a part of your event. I’d love to play for you again in the future! Thanks again, and take care! Caroline

"We booked Magenta Strings as a duo to play during the drinks & canapés at our wedding. From the moment we first contacted them, through to our special day, they were very helpful and professional. On the day, they played a great mix of classic and modern songs, including a special request from the father of the bride. We would definitely recommend booking them. "

"Winter's Day Out for Sight Loss Shropshire. I was very happy with the choice of music - a lovely mix of classical and popular. I had a little "name that tune" competition with the gentleman I sat next to! Everyone I spoke to said how much they had enjoyed the day, which was very gratifying. Thank you so much. Clare"

"The Vitula String Quartet played a fantastic medley of our favourite pieces of music for our regal afternoon garden party event. The atmosphere was truly made with there performances. Very professional and polite. Nothing was too much hassle. Thanks again to the Vitula String Quartet, we shall hopefully plan another event with your great string quartet performances soon. "

"Thames Valley String Quartet performed at our wedding on Saturday 4th May 2019 in Shrewsbury and we couldn’t be happier! They played as our guests arrived, the ceremony and reception drinks. From the initial enquiry we were extremely happy with the personal service we received from Kathryn, responses were helpful and quick - even when we were delayed ourselves. We took a while to decide on our song choices, but Kathryn and the rest of the group were very accommodating and played a huge range of styles for us, from a suggestion from the grooms grandad to learning a song especially for the groom (Final Fantasy sound track) which he absolutely loved for before the ceremony. On to classical and modern pop for the rest. Even though the sun was shining the air was cold being an outdoor ceremony but they all played through it like troopers to enable us to have our dream ceremony. Once again, a huge thank you to all of you in Thames Valley String Quartet for making the journey to be a part of our wedding day, both the two of us and our guests LOVED having you there and listening to you play. We highly recommend booking with Thames Valley String Quartet for any event with their diverse repertoire, skills and great personal service. Thank you again! "

"In the world today you are never quite sure what you’ll get: Rest assured that with Kara Strings, you’ll have made the right decision! Such heavenly music with musicians that are equally and truly out of this world. You will not be disappointed and like us, wished it could have never ended. The musicians themselves(?) … as lovely and wonderful as the music! You feel like you’ve been friends with them forever and they will be! We can’t wait to see them again!"

"We just wanted to say a big thank you to you all for playing so beautifully at Winton House last Saturday. The trio playing “For the Love of a Princess” for my entrance was incredibly beautiful and really captured the mood perfectly. We are just sorry we didn’t get to hear more of you as we were getting our photos done!"
