"Thank you very much Richard for your performance at our Somerset Dinner last month. Apologies for taking so long to write – and nothing to do about not wanting to do this … it’s just that work got in the way! You created the right atmosphere for our both formal and informal occasion – not an easy task. Thanks again – your professionalism was much appreciated too."

"Jade was a perfect professional. Initial communication was clear and prompt. Discussion of terms for gig were smooth. She arrived early, setup, warmed up, and hit the ground running right at the allotted time. Her artistry is excellent, and repertoire beautiful. I would recommend her to anyone. "

"We’re so pleased we booked Lara last minute for our wedding day in Derbyshire! Her music was so good and really added depth and emotion to the background tracks, especially the entrance song as I walked down the aisle. Having her play in the background of the reception drinks was lovely too. Loads of our guests complimented her music and said how nice it was to have something different at a wedding! We would definitely recommend it. Thank you Lara!"

"Wedding Ceremony & Drinks Reception at Kelham Country House Manor May 2025 What can I say , other than incredible! From the off, Kate’ s attentive and responsiveness was brilliant. As we drew closer to the day we had a lovely meeting where Kate had taken the liberty of recording the aisle song so that my wife could decide on the timings for the bridemaids and herself to walk down to her chosen song. On the day, Kate was as per the title, the songs were perfect, timings and position all brilliant. Both aisle and signing. For the reception drinks all of our guests commented on how interactive and brilliant the playing was. Even a special song was played for my mother and father in law to dance to their favourite song. I would whole heartedly recommend Kate, incredibly kind, wonderfully talented and just an all out legend in my eyes who really made our day so special!"

"Modern Strings played at the marriage ceremony of our wedding. They had excellent and lovely suggestions for the music to be played, and were more than happy to play music of our choice. Total professionals who didn't give us a moment of worry, these team know their stuff. Ask them for suggestions on how your music choices can fit with timing on the day! Would definitely use again.

"We were so lucky to have the wonderful Richard Toomer as our violinist for our elopement wedding on July 30th 2019. From our very first correspondence with Richard, he was so warm, professional and enthusiastic. We had a good idea of what we were after, and Richard listened and was so accommodating, even learning two new pieces for us for our day. He also had a vast repertoire for us to choose the bulk of our music from. He played the pieces so beautifully, with his rendition of Steve Earle's Galway Girl bringing me to tears - it was just so perfect! Underlining his versatility, he played a more upbeat version of the same song later on for us all to boogie along to, and it was just fantastic. He learnt Bowie’s Magic Dance for us to exit to and he completely picked up on our enthusiasm for this song and everyone, including the registrars, boogied their way down the aisle. It was wonderful! Richard, thank you for being part of our day and making it so special, you were fantastic! "

She even contacted us when we returned from honeymoon to convey her congratulations.Her repertoire enables her to provide music for all types of occasions and we have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending her. We ourselves would certainly use her services again."
