"Laura, I would like to apologise for missing you at the end of our session, I was so sorry that I didn't thank you all in person, but the day seemed to go in a daze. Julia, Amelia and I would like to thank you so much for making the day, your playing was wonderful and our guests commented on your superb performance, definitely raised the tone! So once again thank you Richard and Julia Holloway"

"Vitula really made our day extra special. Hearing them practise and the venue filled with music whilst getting ready was a magical moment for me, and I know my husband loved listening to them whilst waiting at the top of the aisle. All the guests raved about how amazing they sounded! The quartet were amazing, nothing was too much trouble, and they were wonderfully flexible in the face of uncertain weather conditions. Nick in particular has been unbelievably helpful through the planning of our day and even after! I really can’t say enough kind words about them and would recommend them wholly to anyone. They will make your day feel so special. "

"We were lucky enough to have Astri Strings play at our village summer music festival accompanying a wonderful classical singer. Their session was just beautiful with many classic pieces thrilling the audience. Jude and Vicki were a delight to work with, very professional and so very talented they brought a touch of class to a day of mixed genre and sunshine. Jude returned to join our midnight rock band finale with her stunningly haunting cello. An absolute joy to have Astri Strings at our event. June 2022"

"We just wanted to thank you both so much for playing so perfectly at our wedding on 7th June 2014 at Chilston Park. It was wonderful to see you both there playing when we arrived and to see that you had been entertaining our guests. We also loved your playing at the beginning of our wedding breakfast, it created a great atmosphere. Thank you and we hope to work with you again some time."

"Dear Anne, Just wanted to say thank you for the music at our Golden wedding/birthday party on board the Sabrina on 10th July. Your choice of music was very good with something for everybody. I’m sorry you had to play in such cramped conditions, but it was lovely to have you there - really lifted the spirits. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed themselves, and thankfully the weather was kind to us and didn’t rain until it was time to go home. thanks once again, We did enjoy it, and courtesy of the recording made by my youngest grandson, can listen again to your lovely playing of Elgar's "salut d'amour' any time we like - the sound is good on the recording, though the picture leaves something to be desired. Still, he is only 10! Thanks once again,Pearl Sent from my iPad "

"My wife fell in love when she heard Jean play Adele at a wedding open day. We promptly hired her for our wedding and she was fantastic. We felt very lucky to have someone of Jean's calibre play for us and our guests. She was also great at helping us decide what to play before, during and after the ceremony. It was one of the easiest and most enjoyable things we organised for the wedding!"

"I am really pleased that you received some nice and very well deserved compliments on the night. Your delightful music absolutely set the right tone for the evening and all went according to plan. Our Chairman was very complimentary about the setting, the food and your music and summed it up as “very Nock Deighton” so we appear to have hit the right chord on all accounts."

"Dear Anne, I must admit I only heard a small amount of your beautiful music but what I heard sounded fab. I'm reliably informed that your playing was very well received and enjoyed.

"Lion Strings played at our wedding in August this year and was one of the best decisions we made for our day. She is incredibly talented and her music was just stunning during our drinks reception and wedding breakfast. We had so many compliments from guests about her and she was such a pleasure to have as part of our day. If you are looking for the best harpist for your wedding look no further as you have found her! Thank you sincerely for making our day so perfect."
