We recently hired Arbutus to play for our wedding ceremony and reception. We have had a brilliant experience with them from the very start of planning. Many of our guests commented on how beautiful the music was, and their arrangement of our aisle song was just perfect.

We also appreciate how quick they were to respond to emails and questions we had during the planning process. Thank you so much!

Melanie, Jan & Pam were amazing. Everyone loved Arbutus at our wedding!! Thank you so much! 

Arbutus kindly played at our wedding in August. They created a relaxed atmosphere and everyone thoroughly enjoyed listening to them! Thank you again for being part of our celebrations! 

Arbutus String Trio added a special touch to our wedding ceremony. We had lots of lovely comments from our guests about how great they were and they even took a couple of requests. 

After two cancelled dates due to COVID, Arbutus played at our wedding at the end of August. They were absolutely brilliant, from dealing with our multiple change of dates to multiple changes of location on the day (due to a spot of rain) they were absolute professionals throughout. Their music is absolutely stunning and so many of my guests commented on how much they added to the ambience and feel of the service and drinks reception. I would not hesitate to recommend them, thank you so much  Arbutus you were fantastic! 

I just wanted to drop you a note to thank you for the lovely music you played at our wedding yesterday. Everyone commented on how much they enjoyed it and the entry piece was absolutely perfect, you really are very talented! 

I’m so sorry I didn’t get to catch you in person but thank you for coming to our rescue. Many thanks 

Many thanks for the beautiful music you provided on our wedding day. I felt so awful I didn't get a chance to speak to you on the day. Everything just went so quickly and felt like a bit of a blur! We had such an amazing day and the music made the service very special, so many thanks again.

Thank you for the wonderful music played at our wedding on Oct 9th. 

You made it a very special day.

I have hired Arbutus String Trio to play at two of my daughters weddings as the guests arrived at the reception and canapés are served. Their beautiful music sets a wonderful ambience for any occasion and the variation of music genres Is brilliant. They are hopefully playing at my third daughters wedding next year. I would highly recommend booking this professional trio of lovely ladies for any social event however big or small to add that extra touch of class.

Just a quick note to say 'Thank you' for playing at our wedding. The music was really lovely and just what we wanted. Many people have commented on the selection played. Please pass on our thanks to the other members of the group.

I have been asked to pass on the thanks of my committee for you efforts in making our recent event at Framlingham Castle such a success. 

Without your wonderful music we would not have been able to create such a warm ambiance or this event. Please. Please pass on our sincere thanks to your fellow members of Arbutus.

You will be pleased to hear that the event raised over £600.00 for the school.

Thank you for providing us with such lovely music at Alex and Kyle's wedding at the the Barrandov Barn bar last Saturday. 

Two things will stay with me - hearing the music as we walked up to the barn at the start of the reception and your rendering of 'Waltzing Matilda' as we sat down to eat. These were two special moments but overall your music added a very special quality to a wonderful day.  

As 'organiser' I was very grateful that you are able to take care of the whole thing and I did not have to worry where you would sit etc.

Please pass on our appreciation to the other members of the trio with best wishes 

I am writing this letter today a fortnight on, from you and your string trio, who played for us and our guests at our wedding on 1st of June 2018 Friday.

I would just like to say and express a very big thank you for the music at our ceremony at Shepherds Cottage Wantisden, Woodbridge.

It was wonderful. I know myself and my wife Ali thoroughly enjoyed your entertainment. Your colleague who composed song bird was beautiful played and whilst signing the book I felt deeply moved and close to tears. 

I know all our guests thoroughly enjoyed a live orchestra and our interaction with you through dance singing and swaying brought us a lot of pleasure and very, very happy memories.

Everybody commented on how lovely and atmosphere you help to create. 

I have passed on your email to Hayley Denston our photographer and she has she requested the websites of all our suppliers.

She has some wonderful photos of you all, and we would wish to promote and sing your praises. You made our day very special.

I myself have a lot of photographs of you and I know our guests due too.

So all that remains to say is thank you for your time and being so prompt and thank you for the music it was a wonderful day, Melanie. 

Thank you so much for coming to play for Lucy's wedding. It was wonderful to walk up and hear you playing and everyone was very complimentary and said was a good idea, and how you created such a happy atmosphere. Thank you, please pass on our thanks to Janet and Melanie.

We were lucky with the weather as later it rained. It certainly made us an impact on what was such a wonderful day.

With best wishes always.

I apologise for taking so long to write but we wanted to say a huge thank you for your part in making our wedding day so wonderful. The music was perfect & received many positive comments from friends & family. Thank you all for taking the trouble to learn the extra pieces we requested - Even during all that was happening in the day, I made a point of listening to your version of David Gay & of course, 'Love Theme'.

Many, many thanks to you all.
