Brilliant Quartet, Great Music and Lovely People

Fantastic quartet who played at our wedding. Alison's communication was exceptional from start to finish, rapid replies and always very helpful. The music was beautifully played and their repertoire is huge. We selected mostly covers of popular songs and they also made an arrangement for our song request for a small fee which was amazing for the brides entrance. Would highly recommend this quartet!

Us and our guests loved the music

We just wanted to say thank you to you and the rest of the trio you really made our wedding day. Us and our guests loved the music, we really can’t imagine what our day would have been like without you there. The music sounded incredible during the ceremony and drinks reception and we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend you to anyone! Thank you for making the whole process so seamless, you’ve been a dream to work with x

Made me so emotional

Just wanted to say thank you so much for playing on our wedding day. When I heard that first song from the bridal room it made me so emotional and made it all feel real. I’m sorry I barely got a chance to see you but I heard you and it was just perfect. Can’t thank you enough for helping to make our day so special.

Describe your typical process with a couple.

I’m happy to discuss details over the phone if you’d like, but mostly we work by email so every decision is fully documented. You can send any special requests: entrance music, ceremony pieces or otherwise, at any time. About one month before your wedding, I’ll send a confirmation email and invite your final song choices (earlier in summer, to allow for high demand). As a trained Executive PA, I always respond within 24 hours. It’s a straightforward process that can be as hands‑on or hands‑off as you prefer.

What makes a romantic first dance?

A slow, romantic song that’s personal to the couple, allowing them to shine centre‑stage.
