Palatine quartet were absolutely brilliant, they responded quickly to an inquiry we made, were happy to learn a new piece for my wife to walk down the aisle to, punctual and professional, our guests absolutely loved them! We had their music played from the service until we sat down for the meal and it was so nice to have in the background while everyone was milling around on the lawn! I would 100% recommend for your special day, amazing musicians that added a real touch of class to out big day! Thank you Rachel and everyone else 😁

Calithea arrived on time and worked within the very hot weather constraints exceedingly well, they played exactly what we had asked for and Rachel clearly ensured this had been well communicated..Calithea managed to get others interested in their music too. Would definitely use them again,

The girls turned up promptly with a minimum of fuss and just produced a delightful set. My only complaint is that they didn't stop to say goodbye so that I could thank them personally! Thank you Ladies!
