Amazing musical talent from North East Strings
Katie G booked North East Strings for their Wedding in Newcastle upon Tyne
“North East Strings were amazing from start to finish when they performed at our wedding service recently. Their communication was excellent throughout and on the day the music was amazing! I would definitely recommend to anyone”
Scott A booked North East Strings for their event in Northumberland
“Dawn and Kirsty were amazing! Fantastic musicians and lovely people. We had to cancel our original occasion just minutes before Northern Strings we’re about to play. They offered to adjust their repertoire to meet the most somber of occasions. They played beautifully throughout the evening which was really appreciated by everyone in attendance. Thank you for making the evening as enjoyable as it could be in the circumstances.”
An absolutely incredible addition to our day
Jenny F booked North East Strings for their Wedding in Northumberland
“Thank you so much for playing at our wedding, it really made our day so special. Everyone commented on what a beautiful addition it was to the day and I can’t thank you enough. Especially for learning a new piece of music for us to walk back up the aisle to, it was my husbands favourite song and you being able to accommodate that for us was truly amazing. An utterly unforgettable day, made all the more special by you. So thank you once again.”
