As a keen amateur musician, live music was always going to be important at our Wedding. We were so happy we found Lydia, what an incredible performance setting the atmosphere we wanted to create in such a beautiful setting! We would totally recommend them and it’s a definite 5 out of 5 review, from us. We would definitely use again! Thank you so much?

From the first contact months before the wedding to the final piece played on the day, the piano and cello duo were absolutely perfect. We couldn’t be happier with how they were and thank you so much for playing a part in our special day
