Review Centre: Classical Ensembles

"Nicola and Laura played for my wedding (both cellists), at the ceremony, reception and wedding breakfast. String Musicians have made it so easy and stress free for myself, during the planning and also on the wedding day. Once I told them what I wanted for the music (from the style of music to specific pieces), I did not need to worry about anything else. They worked with the registrar from the council to coordinate cues during the ceremony, so the transition between music pieces was seamless. Many guests commented how well they played throughout the day! Thank you!"

"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. Just a shame about the weather! Thank you for playing for us, and for your kind wishes. Very many thanks, Clare and Will "

"I just wanted to send a quick thank you for the amazing part you played in our wedding last Saturday; everyone has commented on how amazing you all were, and it certainly made my dreams come true walking down the aisle to a string quartet."

"We were thrilled with the music! (On the 15th of May 2015 at Oxenfoord Castle). We thought you guys did a fantastic job during the ceremony. We have had a chance to look back at some of the videos and the pieces that we asked you to learn sounded great (2 new arrangements of Irish folk pieces). Unfortunately we missed most of the music during the drinks reception due having photos taken, but we spoke to lots of guests who all said the music was brilliant.  And I believe a few of the Canadian’s were trying to pressure you into staying longer – sorry about that!  Overall we had a great day, and we think our guests did too, and you and your players were a big part of that, so we’d like to thank you for your great effort."

"Just a quick note to thank you for playing at the wedding of my daughter Emma and Nathaniel's wedding on the 29th December at the Old Swan Hotel. Iam sorry that I was unable to catch you on the evening and express my thanks as the ceilidh capped a wonderful day. For many of the guests this was their first experience of a ceilidh as we had guests from Australia, Japan, Switzerland and Canada. They/we loved it and you made the dance routines very clear with your instructions. Those that could no dance really the live music. Please pass on my gratitude to the other musicians. Kind regards, David Strode."

"The Wigornia String Quartet were very helpful and courteous when we booked them to play at our wedding reception. We were able to select a very wide selection of music from their enormous repertoire and they played it all really beautifully. Highly recommended."

"Thank you, South West String Quartet, for being such a special and beautiful part of Devon and Tristan’s wedding. Planning an overseas wedding had it’s challenges, but you were beyond helpful in guiding us through the entire process. Thank you for sharing your talent with us at Bovey Castle.

"I would like to thank Thames Valley String Quartet for their beautiful performance at our wedding. From start to finish, they oozed class and were the perfect accompaniment as our guests arrived for drinks and nibbles. Guests of young and old commented on their wonderful repertoire and as a personal surprise, they even arranged a version of our first dance song. As performers, Thames Valley String Quartet are highly skilled, professional and passionate. They take great pride in their work and deliver on the promises they make prior to the performance. Once again, we'd like to thank you for making our day even more magical! To anyone else considering a Thames Valley String Quartet at their event, we recommend them to you unreservedly."

"I just wanted to say how grateful we are for the amazing music provided yesterday - it was everything we hoped it would be and more. It was such a joy to hear throughout the day - I wont ever forget the memory of the music starting just as I was about to walk down the aisle. We lost track of how many people came up to us throughout the day to say how wonderful they thought the music was!"

"Hi Aly, A very big thank you for last night - once again, you played an enormous part in making it a much enjoyed evening and, therefore, a resounding success. We had a mix of parents with some who had been last year who, rather than arriving with trepidation, had come along knowing that there were in for a good time, plus some who had heard it was a good event and were keen to get involved. You certainly did a great job of getting people up dancing, providing extremely clear instructions - I just need to work on my sense of direction! Thanks again, Alison."
