Excellent Service
Wood field strings played at our wedding in August. They were very easy to work with, initially we gave them a set list, including a piece not on their repertoire, and they sorted everything out and were fabulous on the day. 100% did not have to worry about anything!

Wonderful music and service
Woodfield Strings did such a lovely job of learning and playing the 3 songs we requested. We really appreciated the wide and varied choice of songs we could chose from and the prompt and professional reply to our emails. We had many guests who commented on their amazing performance and having them there made the day even more special.

Beautiful playing ​We want to thank you so much to Julie and the other musicians for playing for our wedding ceremony. We are so sorry we didn't get the chance to come over and speak to you personally but we just wanted to say thank you. The music you played was just beautiful and so perfect for our wedding. We had lots of guests commenting on how amazing it was to have a string quartet playing for the ceremony and drinks. Thanks again
