Our wedding 2026

I would highly recommend the string group they was incredible. Every detail, including the set up, the quick responses, the professionalism, they way they tailored the package to what you wanted and the price was fantastic. I found the group on the instagram page of the venue I was getting married at and it was everything I was looking for. I’m so glad I found them and I would recommend them to anyone who is planning a wedding or an occasion. They always emailed me back when I had a question, they made my wedding planning effortless as they just got on with it and performed to a high standard. Thank you for playing at our wedding we really appreciated it and we had so many compliments!

Strong Trio Thorpe Garden

One of the best decisions we made booking the strong trio to play for our wedding ceremony and drinks reception at Thorpe Garden. They played a special piece of music to us (that we hadn't been able to find anywhere without lyrics so it was really special to us for it to be played!) for our entrance song and that will be a memory we will treasure forever. The sound of the music was so beautiful, warm and just stunning! We went for upbeat songs for our reception (Abba, Beatles etc.) and this created such an amazing and fun vibe. Couldn't recommend more highly.

Very talented - highly recommend!

The 440 quartet played at our wedding ceremony and drinks reception. They played a beautiful selection of both classical music and pop covers and Liz was very helpful and responsive when booking and accommodated some special requests that we had for the ceremony.
They made our wedding so special, the guests all loved guessing the songs and I would definitely recommend them!

Thank you 440!

We booked the quartet to play for our overseas wedding and they were absolutely flawless providing music for our ceremony and drinks reception. They were a perfect addition to our day! Their playing was absolutely beautiful and lots of guests were sitting around listening. They set up seamlessly and needed no direction at all and had all our requests. I can’t thank them enough for adding such beautiful music to our afternoon!

Wonderful musicians!

440 Strings are a first class ensemble with a large catalog of music perfect for any occasion. We booked them to play during a champagne reception at our garden party. They played classical repertoire, pop music and Bridgerton-inspired pieces. Everything was brilliant. Their gorgeous playing moved me to tears. I wouldn’t hesitate to book them again! ❤️

Amazing addition to our wedding day

Thank you again for performing on our wedding day we had so many compliments about you all! It was particularly nice when you playing as we took our photos inside the lakeside! Is the below okay?

“We want to say a massive thank you to the 440 string quartet team for playing at our wedding day, we had the string quartet and the tabla as it was the perfect compliment to our English-Punjabi fusion wedding. In the lead up to the wedding they answered any queries we had and on the day performed amazingly where we had so many compliments particularly on a number of Bridgerton and Bollywood songs, we would throughly recommend to anyone considering a string quartet for their special day
