Manchester String Quartets

The River Quartet

Conway - Wedding

We had the pleasure of having River Quartet strings play at our wedding. By far they stole the show, the girls learnt whichever songs we requested and all guests commented... how incredible it was. We will not hesitate to book them again for all future events! We just can’t thank them enough for their performance.Read More

North West Ensemble

Jack - Wedding

North West Ensemble were brilliant - they took two requests and played them perfectly for our wedding. They were otherwise perfect throughout the reception. Definitely book them if you want... to add some music to your wedding / event. Read More

Arbour Strings

Charlotte - Wedding

Really good service from start to finish. Accommodated our choice of music despite one of them being unique and not on the list of music options sent to us prior... to the wedding. Really good feedback from our guests and it really made the ceremony and reception drinks that little bit more specialRead More

Penny Lane Quartet

Tracey & John - Wedding

We were absolutely thrilled to have this quartet at our wedding. She was very friendly and professional since our first contact and any requests were handled in such a personal... and calming manner. We asked for a specific song to be played at the start of the ceremony and it was outstanding. Not only did it make the atmosphere in the ceremony very emotional and romantic, but whole party were coming up to us to say how much they loved it and a few days later we are still getting from guests saying that it was one of the biggest highlights of the day. We requested both classical and modern pieces and it just set the tone each time, relaxed yet a wonderful feeling that got all the guests enjoying the day. We would not hesitate to recommend Penny Lane Quartet, they simply make it a wonderful day. Many thanks once again for making our day one to treasureRead More

Luna Strings

Andrea - Private Event

Mark and I are just back home and wanted to send our very grateful thanks to you and your fellow musicians for Saturday evening at Headlam Hall. It was just... amazing and everybody was so surprised and also very impressed. Thank you again for all your help in the run up to the evening and also for joining us. Hope to see you again in the future.Read More

Golden Strings

Hattie & Lewis - Wedding

I apologise for taking so long in writing - I can’t believe it’s two months since Hattie and Lewis’ wedding in Acton back in May. I just wanted to say... thank you for all the trouble you went to leading up to the wedding and to ask if you could pass on my sincere and heartfelt thanks to all members of the quartet. The music set the scene in the church beautifully and created the perfect atmosphere. The day past in a flash and I had little time to listen to the music, not least my favourite piece, ‘Lark Ascending’ which, due to the fact I was occupied at the signing of the register, I heard very little. What little I did hear was beautiful and just wished I could have heard more. I have to mention Duncan whose solo was utterly beautiful and high praise came from many, especially those who’d never heard it before, they were mesmerised. I did hear the applause and am hoping the video will have something.Read More
