"The music in the church was lovely and really added to the occasion. Many of the guests commented on the playing of modern music by a string quartet and how that gave the ceremony an air of individuality without being at all out of place. The music at the reception was perfect. Fitting for the occasion but not at all intrusive. Thank you for making it such a happy and memorable occasion for all of us."
