“We wanted to write to thank you for the fantastic music that you provided for our wedding ceremony. Your performances were outstanding and everybody mentioned how superb you were. We were extremely impressed by your lengthy repertoire, which allowed us to choose the perfect music not only for our ceremony but also for the drinks outside in the gardens and the Safari Lodge. We really appreciated being able to speak to Laura whenever we needed her. It was a wonderful relief to know that someone was paying attention to every detail. We would recommend you to anybody looking for wonderful musicians for any event.

Sorry for the delay in emailing you but I seem to have lost 6 days this week. The wedding and subsequent days were a complete blur.
My husband and I ???? would to thank you and the artists who played at our wedding on Saturday 20th October 2018.
I did not get a chance to meet and greet and introduce myself to them as I was banished to my hotel room as Mark was practising standing up in the wedding room so I couldn't come down and then we didn't get a chance again.
I'm sure you experience this all the time but I felt a bit rude. We only got to hear Sweet child O' mine as we insisted on sitting down to listen but even then were ushered away as people wanted us announced so they could eat their meal.....how very rude we were trying to listen to you guys :-).
Everyone said they enjoyed the music and how lovely to have live music. Not what they expected us to choose at all.
We had such a fab day that went far too quickly.

We just wanted to express our sincerest thanks for playing so beautifully at our wedding. When we first saw your video online, I got that special, magical tingle. Hearing that one piece, which just happens to be my favourite, blew the competition out of the running. We must confess that when we got to the page showing the huge list of starts and productions, our hearts sank a little, thinking we could never afford a quartet in your league. Excitement kicked back in instantly when we arrived at the prices page and we hammered out a booking email there and then. We loved the fusion of classical, pop, show tunes and the little quirky pieces – ‘Let’s go fly a kite’ went down a storm. I was personally mesmerised watching Laura ‘live’ the music – a true artist. Again, thank you all for making our wedding day truly memorable, to us and all our guests- you were perfect!
