"How fortunate we were to have Caroline and the delightful ladies from Ariana String Quartet play at our wedding, each one of them possessing impressive musical prowess and with distinguished classical careers in highly reputed orchestras. The planning and coordination of pieces beforehand and on the day was seamless. So during the actual wedding, each previously chosen song was played as an accompaniment to significant moments: such as the entrance of the bride, the signing of the register, the bride and groom walking into the wedding breakfast room. Everything was timed perfectly. Ariana had also learnt a few of the pieces especially for our wedding. In fact their renditions of the contemporary music we had asked for were not only flawless, but fantastic musical pieces in their own right, as diverse as Arctic Monkeys ‘Mardy Bum’, ‘Concerning Hobbits’ from the Lord of the Rings and Bowie’s ‘Life on Mars’. Furthermore, they were easy to recognise and yet the original was transformed into a beautiful string version. Indeed everything they performed for us was unquestionably beautiful, dare-I-say-it, even better than the string renditions on Bridgerton! Classical musical connoisseurs present were mesmerised and intoxicated by every note. As I looked around the room, I witnessed every generation at the wedding enjoying Ariana’s performance. I heard so many positive comments from guests about them too. They delivered a simply captivating soundtrack to a joyous day for us. We cannot recommend them highly enough."

"We booked the string quartet for our daughter’s wedding at Rockbeare Manor on Easter Sunday. Put simply, they were awesome and elegantly set the scene for the special day. Special thanks to Lucy for her patience and fantastic arrangements of our requests: Bowie; Radiohead and Britney! Loved by all. Thanks so much. "

"I was wondering whether you and your colleagues might have availability to play at my wedding on 24 April 2026. Your team played at a friend’s wedding, and I was really impressed — I absolutely loved the atmosphere you created, so I was hoping you might be able to do the same for us."

"Dear Natalya, Thank you so much for this lovely memento, but especially for the amazing job that you did in playing for my mum's 80th birthday party. Honestly, I could not be happier, not just with the wonderful music, which we all enjoyed so much, but with your kind and thoughtful approach to supporting us through the day. You put so much effort into preparing the music, which my mum loved, and into helping me decide on the programme, and you were so kind and lovely on the day. Your fellow musicians was amazing as well. If you ever need a recommendation, please don't hesitate to contact me - I'm so very happy that I booked you and your group. We feel very lucky and blessed that we found you.Warm wishes, Ruth"

"To say The Element exceeded our expectations is an understatement! From the communication beforehand in helping to decide what music to play to their punctuality on the day and how wonderful the music sounded I would not hesitate to recommend the Element to anyone looking for a string quartet for their wedding. Caroline, thank you so much once again for playing such a part in helping to make our day as special as it was. 30th June 2018"

"Gemma and I would like to thank Thames Valley String Quartet for their beautiful performance at our wedding. From start to finish, they oozed class and were the perfect accompaniment as our guests arrived for drinks and nibbles. Guests of young and old commented on their wonderful repertoire and as a personal surprise, they even arranged a version of our first dance song. As performers, Thames Valley String Quartet are highly skilled, professional and passionate. They take great pride in their work and deliver on the promises they make prior to the performance. Once again, we'd like to thank Thames Valley String Quartet for making our day even more magical! To anyone else considering a String Quartet at their event, we recommend them to you unreservedly."

"The Cheshire String Quartet were absolutely fantastic. We hired them for our wedding, and they exceeded all our expectations. From the ceremony through to the drinks reception, the music was beautiful and created the perfect atmosphere. We received countless compliments from our guests on how wonderful they sounded. Their repertoire is incredibly versatile, ranging from classical pieces to fun contemporary songs, which meant there was something for everyone to enjoy. They also accommodated a very last-minute song request and performed it brilliantly. The Quartet were professional, talented, and a pleasure to work with from start to finish. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend them and would love the opportunity to hear them perform again in the future"
