...I just wanted you to know how supremely grateful we are to have had Strings at Hand play such a special part of our ceremony. As I waited outside the chapel with anticipation, I could hear our guests fall silent and the sound of your beautiful music left me with the biggest smile on my face! I didn't have a single nerve from that point on, and couldn't wait to get down the aisle! I tried to catch the eye of your group a couple of times during the ceremony to mouth 'thank you', but everyone was far too professional for that! We are truly so grateful to have had you there. We didn't adorn the space with fancy flowers or fluffy pew decorations - your music provided all the sophistication and elegance we could have ever hoped for. So thank you for the effortless organisation and even better performance on the day. We will be forever grateful for the part you played in creating our perfect day. With love from us,
Michelle and Mark x December 2015

Hi Ben, I haven't had a chance to get in touch with you but just wanted to say thank you so so much for the music at our wedding on Saturday. Unfortunately I heard much less than the guests but the feedback I received has been that the music was beautiful, and what I did hear and see particularly in the vestibule at Stamford was just wonderful! Allen said it really set the tone for our 
reception and saved waiting time at the church haha. - 27 Nov 2014


We booked your quartet for our wedding at St Stephen's Cathedral on Friday 22nd August 2014.  We just wanted to thank you and the quartet for the wonderful job with the music.  I"ll never forget walking down the aisle to Canon and D, played so beautifullly.  The quartet really added to atmosphere and made the ceremony all the more special for us. 
Thanks again,
Donna & Patrick

Hello Ben,
I hope you're well.
I just wanted to send a BIG THANK YOU to yourself and Alex for playing at our wedding.  I had hoped to formally introduce myself to you on the day, but one minute we're at the ceremony, the next at New farm park for photos!
I had received so many comments on your music.  It was beautiful.  I will definitely recommend you to everyone I know. 
Thank you again!
Kind regards,
