Review Centre: Violin / Fiddle Players

"We cannot recommend Modern Strings enough. From booking the Trio months in advance and right up to our Wedding Day, communications with Sophie were great and we were made to feel nothing was too much trouble. True professionals in every way, what an amazing contribution they made to our Wedding Ceremony and Drinks Reception. They set the exact tone we were looking for on our special day and our Guests were delighted to hear them play and still talk about them. Thank-you Modern Strings – we couldn’t have asked for more! Sharon & Steve - Talbot, Ripley 22/9/17 "

"The age range was from eight to eighty-eight, but Miriam kept everybody - even the shyer audience members - fully engaged, entertained, and joining in 100%. Her 'Last night of the Proms' programme was a mixture of light classics, popular music, and the traditional 'Last Night' favourites, and she made sure to dress for the occasion, which was the icing on the cake! We hope that this will be an annual treat, and look forward to seeing her regularly and hearing a lot more of her extensive repertoire."

"Acoustic and Electric Violinist was excellent, she really made our party special. So friendly and professional. Everyone at our party commented on how good she was, it was a pleasure to hear her play and if I ever need to book a musician, I will be booking her again. I recommend her highly."

"The wedding was absolutely outstanding. I would just like to say how absolutely unbelievable Naomi was. She arrived early, extremely pleasant lovely lady. Dressed immaculately. Her violin playing was some of the best I have ever heard she was outstanding. I genuinely can't put into words how special she made mine and Samantha’s day. Professional from start to finish and ALL of the guests let us know how fantastic she was. My only regret is me and sam not being able to personally thank her as we were getting ushered away. Haha. Please can you let her know we are extremely grateful. Also a huge thanks to you Neil. Excellent service from yourself. Made everything 100 times easier. I will recommend you to anyone that asks."

"“Good morning Eimear, YOU MADE OUR DAY!!!!! Every single guest praised you — you were hands down the BEST part of the wedding (vows aside 😊). Guests are still talking about you over and over, from our young nephews to the older relatives. Even the staff, the barmen, and the band were raving about you. Some of our relations, who never normally comment on weddings, couldn’t say enough good things. The groom didn’t know you were coming — it was a surprise — and he absolutely loved it. He even got up dancing, which had everyone laughing and joining in. Guests thought it was planned, but it wasn’t! How amazing to have you playing while they danced. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you a million times over for making our wedding one of the best we and our guests have ever been to. You are a gifted, extremely talented, and wonderfully happy person. YOU MADE OUR WEDDING."

"Thank you for your beautiful performance on Saturday. Although the children were a bit noisy and boisterous, I know that the guests at our party appreciated your music. Thank you very much for coming and playing for us."

"Beci and Liam were absolutely amazing from the planning stages through the performance at our wedding. They were communicative, flexible, accommodating, insanely talented, and such warm, lovely people. Music is very important to us as a couple, and they were able to accommodate our unique song requests and requested arrangements. They truly made our wedding ceremony the most beautiful, memorable, meaningful moment, one which we will cherish forever. We could not recommend them more highly and are so grateful for their beautiful work which made our wedding the most special day ever. It was a privilege to have them there with us."

"Mia was brilliant!! We hired her for an 80th birthday party and it definitely made the party feel extra special. It created a lovely atmosphere, which is what we'd hoped for. It was a real treat for everyone not just the birthday boy. "
