I just wanted to say a thank you to London Strings for playing at my wedding at Highley Manor. It really made my day and everyone commented on how wonderfully they played. Kind regards,
Hi David, please could you pass on my thanks to David and his colleagues – they were fantastic at our event and we were delighted with them. Kind regards,
Both the music in the church and afterwards during the wedding breakfast was enthralling.
Dear David, many thanks to your quartet for helping to make the ceremony such a success. The music sounded fabulous and we had many compliments given to us.
They were fantastic. I can’t stress just how superb they were, all of our guests praised them. They were very discreet and professional as well as playing beautifully. They really added to the day and I can’t praise them enough.
Just thought I would send a quick note to say how wonderful The London String Quartet were. They were exactly what we hoped they would be, they played an assortment of music, and managed to create the perfect atmosphere for our Civil Partnership.
It was a magical day. The London String Quartet were absolutely brilliant. We have heard a number of quartets at different functions and they were by far the best. We would thoroughly recommend them. We were very happy with their high quality of performance.
