"We are so happy we chose Astri Strings to play during our wedding ceremony. Not only were they friendly, flexible, and professional from the outset - with an extensive repertoire and willingness to learn new pieces - but they are such a talented duo and really set the scene for our special day"

"We just wanted to say thank you so so so much for Thursday. You were amazing in every single way - everyone said how classy the music was. Thank you for being part of our special day. We had the BEST day ever - it's true what everyone says!! We are so sorry we didn't even get to say hi to you. We felt so rude, but just so busy with photos. We regret not saying thank you as you were both incredible!!! "

"I was looking on last minute musicians to book a string quartet for my wedding. They got in touch quickly and Kirsten was extremely helpful in sorting everything out. They have pages of songs, from classical to movie themes, choosing from the list was the hard part, because I loved so many songs. But they were constantly in touch making sure I chose the right songs. At the wedding they made my day extra special. All the guests were floored with their music. They were enthusiastic and really looked like they were having a great time! I can’t thank them enough and wouldn’t hesitate for a second to book them. "

"We really enjoyed having H&R acoustics at our event. They were really patient and flexible with the last minute changes we had to make because of the weather. Everyone loved the music they were playing and several people have requested their contact details. I will definitely be recommending them! "

"It was absolutely amazing. You read the crowd and knew exactly what would get them going. Everyone we have spoken to has commented on how good you were. I have got no idea if you played any of the songs we chose as I was having such a good time. I am so glad that we had you make our special day even more special and memorable. Thank you Andy. Until we meet again, I wish you all the best. Thanks"

"Kate and her pianist were wonderful and everyone I have asked enjoyed their music and contribution to the party. I am only sorry I was so busy I didn't hear all of the music, and maybe I should have asked her to turn the volume up! It's a fine line between being too loud and getting people to listen to Kate's fantastic voice. Thank you very much - we really appreciated all the music. Funnily enough, looking through your resume, Victoria Newton sang at Tito's 50th birthday 10 years ago!"

"Thank you for a fantastic gig at the Insignio social event. Managers of the University Arms kept asking who you were since you sounded so great. I really liked that apart from playing your own songs, you did covers as well. I will definitely recommend you to my friends and other pubs. "

"We hired the string duo for our wedding on the 12/03/17, it was a surprise for the wedding guests so a low profile was key. I can't recommend Helen and the team enough, so professional, constant contact throughout the booking process I couldn't have asked for more. Thank you for making my dream a reality."
