"Fantastic violinist and a lovely woman too! Put me and my best man at ease pre-wedding and a breath taking display throughout the day. She supported my wife throughout the planning process (which took some of the pressure off me ha ha!) I honestly can’t recommend Jo enough. Thinking of the next even we can hire her for! "

"We wanted to book a musician to play background music as our guests arrived, drank their bubbly, ate their canapes and mingled and then whilst they were having their starter. We wanted something very classy and my partner's favourite instrument is the cello. Having watched Emily on YouTube, I had no hesitation in booking her and she exceeded our expectations. What a privilege to have such a talented composer/musician play at our function! All the guests enjoyed listening to her playing classical and modern pieces as well as hearing the story of her blue electric cello. Furthermore, Emily is an extremely lovely lady and she made the booking process so easy. Thank you for making my special event even more special."

"I had Sarah-Jane as a soloist and l couldn't have wished for a better soprano, she was fantastic and a lovely person. Very professional and passionate about her singing and everyone commented on how good she was. It was a delight communicating with her prior to the event and she helped make it run smoothly. Thank you Sarah-Jane."

"What a beautiful wedding we had, made even more so by our choice of soloist. Joanne was discreet in person and respectful of catholic traditions whilst astounding our guests with her unique vocals. Her voice carried through the church and touched our souls. Excellent to deal with both before and during the service. Worked well with organist. Lots of compliments were given to her and she made Luke and Shelley’s day even better. Thank-you! "

"Firstly I would like to just point out that I am not one to leave comments and secondly I was hesitant to hire a Bagpiper from the internet…. But my word was Mr Bill James worth it!!! Having served with the Highlanders and being Scottish, with a lot of Scots attending my wedding. I originally asked friends within the Regiment to Pipe at my wife and my Wedding, Due to work related matters, they could not attend, which left us without a piper. Searching the internet, I found a Piper, but again due to commitments, he too could not attend, but suggested Mr James. From the start, my wife, myself and our guests, were amazed. He was fantastic. His playing of the Pipes, I am afraid to say, would have put even some of the best within the Regiment to shame!!! The perfect manner in which he conducted the pipes and himself was world class! His presentation, friendly and very professional manner stood out! (He was even at the Church before me)!! Would I recommend Mr James….? YES…. I would strongly recommend the Gentleman!!! Without any hesitation I will be keeping his details for any further function or event that we have!!!!! Thank you very much Mr Bill James, you certainly completed our wedding! To that we are both grateful. "

"Thank you James, just a quick note to thank you for your wonderful contribution to our Thanksgiving Service and reception on Saturday. As you may know our guests included a wide range of people both church goers and non church goers and so it was extremely important to have a strong pianist to provide melodic support for the hymns. Your playing before and after the service gave great ambiance and it was so wonderful to see the grand piano being used and played so skilfully. Thank you again for your kind assistance."

"Thank you so much for playing at Natalie and Stewart’s wedding on Saturday. Your harp playing sounded beautiful and fitted the Georgian setting so well."

"Elliot arrived promptly and played for one hour at our drinks reception. We gave him a list of all our favourite songs and tunes, which he played with great style, fluently moving from one melody to the next. He was also willing to accompany a hesitant singer, and then all of our party sang a song for a grand finale! We raised the roof! His willingness to accede to all our requests made it a great addition to our enjoyment of the evening! I know Elliot is also a versatile jazz artist. If the occasion came round again we would be more than happy to engage Elliot."

"We hired Ruth to play the harp for our outdoor wedding ceremony and it was one of the best decisions we made! She was so helpful when choosing from her huge rep list - if she didn’t have a posted video of the song on her website she was happy to send over a recorded sample. We wanted a little more of a contemporary feel to our ceremony so chose non-classical songs with more meaning to us but with Ruth’s classical training she made them sound elevated and original rather than a direct replication of the tune - which was perfect! (We will never listen to Wonder Wall the same way again!)"

"Nazan sung beautifully at our wedding in France. She sang a favourite song from my childhood as part of the ceremony and whilst we signed the register which Nazan had taken the time to learn. During the wedding breakfast she also performed an operatic aria which was simply breathtaking. The staff at the chateau informed me it was the most beautiful song/singing they have ever had at the chateau and I most definitely agree. A massive thank you to Nazan who made our beautiful day - it wouldn’t have been the same without you."
