  1. booked Pippa Reid-Foster for a wedding

    Verified

    We were delighted to have Pippa perform for our wedding ceremony and drinks reception. Pippa arrived in plenty of time to set up on the day, and was very relaxed and pleasant to speak to. She was happy to arrange a piece of music that we requested especially for our ceremony, and performed it beautifully during the signing of the register. The option of a harp & violin duo for the drinks reception worked perfectly. We received many glowing comments from our guests on the quality of music, and it really created a warm atmosphere through the venue. We would strongly recommend Pippa to any couple looking to add a touch of musical class to their wedding day.

  11. booked TKate Cello for a private event

    Verified

    Tabitha played her Cello at our Mum's recent wake. It was nothing short of angelic. So perfect for our Mum who was very soft and kind natured. Tabitha was warm and polite in manner and extremely professional too. She is an extremely competent and heart-felt Cellist! Tabitha answered all of my queries before the event promptly and courteously. She even learned six special request songs at fairly short notice, and was thoughtful enough to ask us when we wanted these particular songs to be played. We could not have asked for more from Tabitha and sincerely hope to be able to hire Tabitha again for a future occasion. THANK YOU so much Tabitha from the bottom of our hearts for helping to create the most magical wake for our late Mum.

  14. booked Jeremy Johnson for a wedding

    Verified

    From initial contact right through to his performance, Jeremy was absolutely fantastic. We only had a small venue with an even smaller guest list for our micro-wedding, and Jeremy was still able to fine-tune his performance to suit. His set list was perfect for the venue, and he included the tweaks and covers we requested in our initial conversations with him. Jeremy is a brilliant guitarist, and his ability with looping sections of his performance really adds to the quality and engages the audience even more. Add to all of the above the fact that he’s a really likeable bloke and easy to chat to and he’s likely perfect for almost any event! Would book him again in a heartbeat.

  15. booked Trafalgar Brass for a wedding

    Verified

    Trafalgar Brass stepped in within just a few days of our wedding, after the military band we had booked in sadly had to cancel due to the national mourning of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II. Despite these circumstances, they were quick to accept the job and their communication was absolutely superb. On the day itself, Trafalgar Brass were exceptional. Given the loss of the military band, as an ex-Army Officer, I requested military-esque music and they absolutely excelled with their score choices. Not only that but offered up the national anthem, so that I could toast to the Queen and the new King the weekend prior to her funeral. An absolutely outstanding performance from the band and I couldn’t recommend them more highly. I thought we had missed out after the cancellation, but I would honestly say that their performance would have probably exceeded that of the military band anyway. Thanks again George, James and the rest of the team!
