"Abi and the girls were all fantastic, the music was beautiful and very professional, every body enjoyed this quartet, and they looked great, can't thank you all enough. Our walk down the aisle was very moving to the back drop of Pachelbel canon in D not a dry eye from the bridal party. We really can recommend the CG Strings to anybody they also played through the wedding breakfast which everyone commented that it was lovely and the girls kept the volume just right and not overly loud but enough to provide a beautiful background for the meal. Thank you all again and wishing the CG all the best for the future, Our fondest regards, Brian & Deborah."

"Hi Emily, I wanted to say a hugeeeeee thank you for Saturday, you sounded so beautiful. Everyone kept saying how amazing you were and Adam said you set up so fast and were super professional. So sorry I didn’t get a chance to meet you both for very long, it was such a hectic first couple of hours, especially as I had never met half of the guests. Thank you so much again."

"It was refreshing to see Allan and David bring forth their talents to remind us of the beautiful season of Christmas and at the same time giving us an opportunity to do our bit for the society. It is just a testament of the quality music that was put on show that they managed to have a huge crowd during one of the most busy hours of the day. It could also be easily seen that Allan and David had put in some hard work before putting up the show. Kudos to both of them. Keep up the good work guys!!!"

"Thank you again, you were awesome, and probably the only part of our whole reception that delivered everything you said you would, when you said you’d do it."

"Very many thanks for playing with your band at my party on Sunday afternoon. I have to say, you all managed the volume perfectly and we were all able to chat and enjoy our time together without being drowned by your lovely music – brilliant and well done! Please pass my thanks to your colleagues. Your choice of music and musicians was just right for the occasion and I shall recommend you without hesitation in the future. I hope you have some functions to play at that allow you to enjoy the fine weather predicted over the next week or so. Thank you again, Joe."

"Jonathan and Julian played beautifully during our wedding reception, and our guests were full of compliments! They were absolutely lovely through the whole planning process and were very accommodating to our last minute requests. I can't recommend them enough; we'll definitely keep their details for any future occasions."
