"An absolute highlight of our wedding! We booked Aderyn as a string duo for our wedding breakfast and they created a magical atmosphere for us and our guests. Their music choices were on point and so many guests commented on how brilliant they were. They left to lots of cheers and rapturous applause. Sion responded promptly to all messages and everything was clear in the run up to the big day. Would highly recommend! "

"Serenade Strings were brilliant at our wedding. They were flexible to our repertoire, including a request for a specific arrangement that we'd written for the drinks reception. We were especially grateful for their performance within our ceremony, in which they were happy to sit in an unusual formation to accommodate the space, and flexed their set-list in real-time when both the processional and the signing of the schedule took longer than expected. We're very grateful to Serenade Strings, and would highly recommend them to any other couple looking for a string quartet for their wedding!"

You really helped make my birthday so special and performed all the songs I wanted and even a happy birthday. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. Book the serenade strings you won’t regret it. "
