Halo Strings performed at our wedding and they were absolutely perfect! They learnt a song that I wanted to walk down the aisle to and it was everything I wanted and more! Their music is beautiful and I wish we could do it all again!

Wow! Halo Strings really did exceed our expectations and made our dreams a reality. All the girls were extremely professional and friendly and all looked incredible in matching dresses. I had so many comments throughout the day about how amazing they were! 10/10 would highly recommend!

We would like to thank the two girls for starting our Wedding Day so magically. The music was beautiful and beyond what we had hoped for. So many of our guests commented on how talented, professional and beautiful the girls were. Thank you so much. We would highly recommend your services.

They played during our ceremony and our drinks reception, they helped to make our day even more special and one we will never forget. We had so many comments throughout the day and have had so many since on how great they were. The song selection was perfect and I couldn’t recomend them highly enough, well worth the money. The booking was easy and Once in contact with Lidia she was so helpful and answered all our questions quickly. We couldn’t have asked for a better quartet to play at our wedding. Amazing. Dom and Charlotte
