REVIEWS
★★★★★ - "we had so many comments on how great they were..."
“River Strings played my wedding in December and were brilliant. Their set list was extensive and they were totally flexible to add whatever I wanted in, their playing was beautiful, excellent sound quality and they wore stunning dresses to go with our black tie theme. We had so many comments on how great they were, and when my husband and I walked into the drinks reception and heard them play it felt so magical. A huge thank you!.”
★★★★★ - "all of the guests commented how magical it was..."
We booked Laura & Katja from River String Duo to perform at our wedding a couple of weeks ago. They performed the most beautiful music to greet our guests, our ceremony & reception drinks, all of guests commented how magical it was.
The music really set the scene for our wedding & made the day extra special.
We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Laura & Katja for any special occasion.
Thank you both for being part of our special day. Mr & Mrs McEwen xx
