Well what can I say....you guys were just truly amazing. I remember walking in to Towneley hall and hearing and seeing you playing and just feeling so happy. You absolutely made our day. SO many guests have said you were their favourite part of the wedding. My dad especially loved it so much. We honestly can't thank you enough. We have already recommended you to our friends for their wedding too!!

Athena Strings played at our wedding on 10/09/16. We searched high and low for a string quartet that we loved and instantly knew these ladies were perfect for the job when we listened to them online. We asked for songs to be played that were not in their repertoire and they did a fantastic job. On the day all four of them were smartly dressed and professional. Our song choices were played beautifully and many guests commented on how much they enjoyed listening to them. Its was my husband that expressed a wish to have strings at the wedding and he was over the moon with how the girls played! I myself took some time out to sit and listen to them play. Their music made the day feel so relaxed and it definately would not have had the same ambience without Athena Strings. Thank you from Mr and Mrs Figg
