Last Minute Musicians Reviews

"What can I say? Such energy and a beautiful voice. You were both so professional and it was great to have such a clear communication both before and during the night. I will not hesitate to recommend you to other friends of mine, many of whom asked for your contact details. Thanks again."

"Hey Gordon! Ok so I'm back and going to write you a raving review (all true!) to use as you please. I hope it's useful. Xx Gordon sung for us at our wedding in Whitstable in July. He had a lot to contend with being outside on a very windy beach but his beautiful voice and music could be heard loud and clear as he sung a brilliant range to suit all ages and styles. Never in my life have I seen wedding guests dance and sing in the canapé hours! Gordon had every single one of our guests dancing and screaming the words to Backstreet Boys and it was genuinely the highlight of my wedding day! His amazing set didn't end there. I was then serenaded with my favourite song, again providing another amazing moment to remember. Very close to my wedding date I mentioned to Gordon the song that I would be dancing with my dad to. I did not expect him to play it and that was never the plan as I had left it very last minute, however he learnt the song in record time and sang and played guitar for my dad and I and it was a truly beautiful moment- made so much more special by the beautiful live rendition of the song. It was such a brilliant touch and something I will always remember about my wedding day. Since the wedding people have not stopped raving about Gordon. He was truly such a huge part of our day and set the tone for the rest of the evening and I could not have asked for any more. He really helped to make our day magical and I cannot recommend Gordon enough. There are many decisions that you dither over when arranging your wedding, trying to fit what you can into your budget. Having Gordon perform at our wedding was one of the easiest and best decisions we made!"

"Sean was booked to play at a 70th birthday party in my house. It was diabolical weather so had to set up inside.(not ideal). Lovely young man who will do his absolute best to oblige with requests. He played a good selection of songs under quite difficult circumstances. One tip is discuss beforehand what you would like played to give Sean a chance to get a playlist together. Sean is a talented musician."

"Caroline and Luke played at our wedding on Feb 24th in Bury St Edmunds and I cannot recommend Element String enough. They were absolutely fantastic and I feel lucky to have had them playing at our wedding. So many guests commented on the quality and variety of the music they played and how it created a great atmosphere for the event. From the outset we received quick responses from Caroline and a friendly and flexible approach. She was happy to adjust length of time and number of musicians to fit our budget. We had the duo to play as guests were arriving and having welcome drinks , then through the ceremony itself and for most of the drinks reception that followed. We had thought we would be indoors on the day given it was Feb but due to uncharacteristically hot weather , the drinks were taken outside onto the terrace. Caroline and Luke being very flexible moved outside with us which was amazing. The group have a good repertoire to select from so you can have classical for the more formal moments in your day and something more jazzy afterwards to give a party feel. The duo created the perfect level of sound for the size of our ceremony room and number of guests (around 85). If we had a greater budget we would have taken the trio or even quartet without thinking as their previous reviews were so positive. I’m sad that I didn’t get to meet Caroline and Luke properly to say a big thank you. On the wedding day itself everything just seems to happen around you without you having any chance to veer off schedule. I bumped into Caroline by chance as I was being shown into the dining room and she was lovely , very warm and friendly. She and Luke arrived nice and early to set up and what is great is they are fully acoustic. Everything you hear is fully their talent and no electrics/amplifiers and wires required so it is easy to set up in almost any part of the room you require. They created such atmosphere for our ceremony - I could not have been more delighted with them. If you are looking for musicians for your wedding or other event that are extremely talented in their range of music, flexible , easy to deal with , fairly priced and transparent - then look no further than Element Strings.

"Mark and the band were beyond all expectations. We found them incredibly helpful and easy to communicate with. They did 2 sets for our wedding and they were absolutely exceptional. We wanted something upbeat, fun and would get everyone dancing, whilst avoiding wedding music cliches - and we weren’t disappointed in the slightest. All our guests, young and old, were on their feet and having the best time. We’ve had multiple messages from guests saying how fantastic they were and we’re very much considering them for any future special events! Highly recommend!"

"Top quality music and above all, top quality lads! Made our day even more special than we could have asked for with their wide style range, playing pop/classic rock/indie covers that we all loved. If you want energy from a band, you've got it with The Pretty Ugly"

"What can we say other than perfection! The band members have been a joy to liaise with, really well organised and professional. The music they played and sound quality was amazing and our guests absolutely loved them. Having them play at our wedding made the day even more fun and special, we are so so happy we picked them. Thanks so much the Gary and crew. We hope you enjoyed playing for us as much as we loved having you."
