Matthew Sayles & Amy Johnson, Wedding Event, Norfolk
The East Anglia String Quartet were absolutely great, perfect for our wedding. Our guests seemed to really enjoy the music also. We particularly liked their mixture of modern and classical songs. We're really please we chose them as we couldn't fault them whatsover - they helped make our wedding very special.

Catherine and Fabrico
Dear Debbie and The East Anglia String Quartet, We are writing to thank you for the wonderful music which you played during our wedding ceremony, it was really beautiful and created a magical atmosphere. All our guests commented on how much they enjoyed it too. Thank you also for your help arranging the music, your efficiency in your correspondence and your complete reliability. We really appreciated your arriving early to ensure everything was ready. If we organise another event we shall definitely call on you and we shall highly recommend you.

Paul Cooper
We were equally worried about not hearing them before hand, but I have to say they were brilliant. Debbie coped really well with the fact that neither Sarah or I knew exactly what the names of the songs we wanted were. We asked them to play while our guests were arriving, during the ceremony and then during the reception drinks (we had the ceremony and reception at the same place). We asked them to play traditional music during the ceremony and then left it upto them to sort the music afterwards around our brief of modern and swing music. I was particularly pleased when they played Bohemian rhapsody as well. We found them to be extremely accommodating throughout the day. We had to ask them to move around a bit and they made no fuss and just got on with the job. My best man and his partner were both trained musicians and they couldn't fault the playing (which is apparently a first). I really would recommend them and cannot fault them in any way.

Carol and Tim
Dear Debbie, from both of us, many heartfelt thanks for playing on our wedding day at Glemham hall. the variety of your repertoire was truly impressive and our guests thoroughly enjoyed your performance, as indeed you all seemed to aswell. Your rendition of Bohemian Rhapsody won you many new fans. We received numerous comments about how appropriate your entertainment was to the tone of the event and you left a lasting impression on all of us. Very many thanks, once again.
