"Álvar played for my wedding proposal, and dinner afterwards, and was fantastic. Super responsive during the planning process, and flexible of type of music played. Tons of depth - ranging from classical and jazz to pop. Would absolutely work with Álvar again. "

"We hired Ivan to playing the sax during cocktail hour and party at our wedding in Santorini and couldn't be happier that we did! Leading up to the wedding, he was professional in his planning and communication. On our big day, we were absolutely blown away by his music! Our guests absolutely LOVED him. At cocktail hour, it was the intimate and unique touch we wanted. At the party, he brought so much energy and excitement to the dance floor! He worked seamlessly with our DJ. We can't express our gratitude to Ivan for traveling to Santorini enough. Having him play was one of the highlights of our wedding day! If you're looking for a saxophonist to play at your wedding, Ivan is absolutely the right choice. "

"We couldn’t have been happier with Alvar and his string quartet at our wedding. From the very first contact, Alvar was incredibly receptive and easy to communicate with, which made the whole planning process stress-free. The comprehensive song list he provided was brilliantly organised by category, making it straightforward for us to select the perfect pieces for each part of our day. Alvar was remarkably flexible with timing and was able to perform at all the key moments we’d hoped for. When our wedding ran slightly over schedule, he was more than happy to accommodate and wait so they could play at exactly the right moment. One of the real highlights was the three bespoke songs they learned especially for us. The way they arranged and performed these pieces was absolutely stunning and made the day feel incredibly personal and special. The quartet added so much to the atmosphere throughout – their performances were one of the standout moments of our entire wedding. Beyond their musical talent, they were a pleasure to work with. They liaised smoothly with our venue to ensure they could set up in the right locations, remained friendly and communicative throughout, and were thoroughly professional and competent in every way. We’d recommend Alvar and his quartet without hesitation – they helped made our day unforgettable."

"I would recommend them a thousand times over. We hired them for our ceremony, and the music they played was magical. From the beginning, communication was quick, and they were always very kind and friendly. We wanted two songs outside their repertoire, and they learned them perfectly for the wedding. You won't regret contacting them!"

"I want to sincerely thank Edelweiss for everything they did to make my wedding dreams come true. From the moment I contacted them until my wedding day, working with them was an incredible experience. They were always super attentive, professional, and willing to help at every turn! They even learned two new songs at the last minute because we asked them to… which shows how committed and talented they are. The music they played was beautiful and left us all with goosebumps! I truly couldn't recommend them more! If you're looking for a string quartet for your wedding or event, don't hesitate for a second! They're incredible. Thank you so much for everything!"

"We want to say a massive thank you to Cuarteto Moon, they were fantastic when they played at our wedding and really added to the day.  It wasn't just about the day though, it was all the extra effort to help refine what we wanted for our wedding.  Their repertoire is extensive and varied, but Álvar helped suggest themes for each of the sets we had (ceremony, drinks reception, dinner) and they were also able to add a couple of additional numbers that we requested specially.  A really lovely and talented group of musicians that helped make our day that little bit more special.  We already have people who attended asking about them for doing other events, so high praise indeed!"

"We hired Edelweiss Quartet last summer for our wedding near Barcelona. From the beginning, everything went fantastically! They were very responsive to our requests. On the day of the wedding, they were one of the most appreciated touches. They knew how to play the music to create a very positive atmosphere for the aperitif. They managed to give the wedding a touch of magic with their sounds, appropriate for each moment. It was stratospheric!!! I thank them a thousand times for making that day the day it was. Being Swiss, I don't know if that means anything, but it confirmed that the group's level of professionalism is on par with our country. 1000% recommended."

"I have been meaning to message you directly also to thank you. What you produced the night of our wedding was nothing short of magical - and I do not say this lightly. I am very happy to hear the band enjoyed the evening - I think their enjoyment and energy showed through their music. The feedback we have had from guests is overwhelming, particularly that the band and the singer (I don't remember his name) was the best they have ever heard at a wedding. You guys nailed the performance. I am so happy that we decided to do a live version, you could not have gotten the same energy and vibe with just a recording / original version. Your two sets were also perfect. There were a few times that we all stopped in the marquee to listen and appreciate the music, particularly My Way - I remember looking around and quite a few people were singing along! I think another sign of a success of a wedding is the number of people on the dance floor, and there was not an empty space during the second set. The amount of people of all ages dancing was a true highlight for me as we wanted this to be a wedding that everyone would enjoy - not just us." Alexa"

"Scherzando Strings played for us at our recent wedding and they were fantastic! They played to my guests at the Church before we arrived, and learned the song I chose to walk down the isle to especially for me as it wasn't in their repertoire. They then played songs we loved during the singing of the register too which made the whole ceremony so much more special ( Braveheart brought a tear to everyone's eye). They then set up at our reception venue and played more wonderful music for the welcome hour, including Disney, Bridgerton, Harry Potter, opera, classical, just a great mix that kept us all entertained and they are wonderful, friendly people too. Sue was great to chat too and no request was too much trouble. Would 1000% hire again for any event. "

"We booked String Musicians London for our company Christmas Party, and they did not disappoint! We hired a quartet to perform Bridgerton-style music and they also added in some Christmas songs too. It added a whole extra level to the style of the event and all our guests loved them!"
