"Gary and I would like to thank you and the fabulous musicians of Stringspace for their wonderful performance on our wedding day in Bowral, on Saturday 17th September (St Jude's Anglican Church). They truly made the ceremony feel so special. The guests absolutely loved it.
I was also very happy with the tempo of the processional song.
I am not sure if the news was passed on but our recessional CD had a frozen moment which meant silence.... the String Quartet was onto it pretty quickly and played a recessional song instead! They were just so sharp and made what could have been a mini hick up just super special!
If you could kindly thank them on behalf of Gary and I it would mean a lot."
Kind regards,
