Review Centre: String Quartets

"My (now) wife and I booked the King’s Quartet to play at our wedding ceremony and reception in November 2017, and they were undoubtedly one of the highlights of the day. Despite contracting them at a relatively late stage (around three weeks before the event), they were very open to our requests, and the quality of their playing was excellent. As our wedding was quite small, their music really added to the ambience without overwhelming guests' conversations. We were also impressed with their professional service. They were smartly dressed, arrived exactly on time and managed the transition between the three rooms they had to play in without any problems."

"The Magenta Strings duo played at our wedding last month and they were great! Through from our ceremony to our meal, the music was just what we wanted. I would highly recommend them to anyone considering music at their wedding. Thanks guys"

"Flux Ensemble were the perfect addition to our wedding day. From booking through to the end of the event, they went above and beyond to facilitate our wishes. They not only learnt new songs but also arranged pieces of music just for us. The guests all loved their performance and we had so many comments about how well they complimented our day. We could not be more thankful to the team and would hire them again in a second."

"We hired this quartet for our wedding, and they were nothing short of phenomenal! Although I didn’t get to hear them play for the full three hours (wedding day chaos!), our guests could not stop talking about how incredible they were. So many people said it felt like walking into a real-life Bridgerton episode — elegant, enchanting, and so beautifully played. One of the most important moments for me was the bridal procession. I had requested a very specific song, and they absolutely nailed it. It was emotional, magical, and just perfect. They were professional, talented, and brought such a special touch to our wedding atmosphere. If you're looking for live musicians to elevate your event, this quartet is the one. Truly one of the best decisions we made!"

"This quartet played at my wedding in August, after originally being booked for August 2020! They accomodated to 3 different wedding dates for us in the end, due to 2 postponements! Yhe communication throughout an insanely stressful 2 years was amazing, Kim even waivered the admin fee of changing the date twice due to money issues from loss of earnings during Covid. I had a particular piece of music I wanted to walk down the aisle to from Game Of Thrones, but it had never been arranged for a string quartet. This was not an issue for the amazing team, who spent months listening to the original and making me my own bespoke piece of music by recreating it. They played before my ceremony whilst guests were arriving, during the drinks reception whilst my husband and I went away for private photos and then even stayed a little longer. My guests absolutely adored them, they played loads of music from films and TV shows and even the children were recognising certain songs! They also played a bit of Def Leppard and took requests from very keen guests. They made the atmosphere and were so lovely to be around. 6 months later, I will still see people that attended and they'll say "oh my gosh, your string quartet was amazing!" Well worth the money and the wait. Added something spectacular to our beautiful day that we will never forget. Thank you "

"Claire was a delight to work with in the planning stage and her playing on the day was great. She created a wonderful atmosphere in which it was comfortable for people to meet and chat, as well as sit and listen to a lovely range of music."
