The Capriccio Quartet's Reviews

5 out of 5

We hired Capriccio Quartet for our wedding day. From the moment we made the booking, it was smooth sailing and we felt our wishes were fully accounted for. Lynette was our point of contact and we cannot fault the communication we had. We really valued her input into song choice for our day. True professionals! On the day the quartet really helped set the scene we wanted. Beautiful musicians and the music was enjoyed by all. I strongly recommend making contact with Lynette if you’re considering a quartet for your special day. 5 stars from us!!
