Our Fairytale Summer Wedding

From the start of planning our wedding, I knew I wanted a violinist because it is such a beautiful instrument. I searched and searched until I came across Jo, and from the moment I saw her on social media, I knew she would be amazing. Jo is one of the most organised, kind, and helpful women I have ever met. From start to finish, she made my wife and me feel completely at ease. In the lead-up to the wedding, we got to choose the songs we wanted her to play, and her music repertoire was so wide and varied. We spent an evening picking our favourites, and it was such a fun part of the planning process. We even decided to extend our time with Jo, and she was more than happy to do so. On the wedding day, she exceeded all expectations. She played so beautifully and dressed perfectly to match our theme. It felt like a real-life fairytale, as if we were in a Bridgerton episode or a Taylor Swift love story video. Her music created the most magical atmosphere for our outdoor venue. The entrance songs were breathtaking, and I was honestly in awe. If you are thinking about booking a violinist, do not hesitate. Jo is worth every penny and more. Our guests still talk about her performance as though it happened yesterday. She truly made our day unforgettable.

The perfect touch for our fairytale wedding

Jo is absolutely fantastic! I cannot thank her enough for playing such beautiful music throughout our wedding ceremony and drinks reception! Even in 30 degree heat Jo worked so hard and played so beautifully all while with a smile on her face! We are so grateful to Jo who bought us to tears on many occasions and truly set the scene for a fairytale wedding. All of our guests agreed Jo’s playing was perfect for the occasion and we received so many compliments. Thank you so much Jo, for making our day feel truly magical, we are so glad we found and chose you for our day.

Simply the best!

Jo was absolutely incredible, I am struggling to find the words to describe how amazing her performance was on our special day. Her repertoire was so expansive and had something for everyone, we had a few specific requests which she quickly composed and they sounded even better than we could have possibly hoped. Her communication was incredibly clear and quick and she was really supportive advising us on music cues and timings. I’ll never get over the feeling of walking back down the aisle with my new husband to “accidentally in love” it perfectly encapsulated the joy of the moment. I genuinely cannot recommend CAVE enough!

Jo was amazing, we booked her for our wedding and we couldn’t have asked for more. Her performance in the wedding ceremony was spectacular & her performance for our guests afterwards, if possible was even better. All our guests commented on how good she was. 5* if you’re thinking about a violinist, don’t hesitate and book. Thank you K&D

A wonderful experience for a wedding guest.

Joanne played at the ceremony and between that and the wedding breakfast. A delightful array of music creating a wonderful ambience.

The perfect addition to our day

Joanne, thank you so much for making our day extra special. Thank you for being so flexible and changing our set last minute to include an extra Aston Villa themed song. Our guests spoke so highly of you and said how lovely it was to hear you play during our canapes. We wouldn't have changed a thing on our day so we are so happy you were part of it. Thanks again and UTV. X
