“We have just returned from honeymoon today and I wanted to thank you and the rest of the quartet for doing such a wonderful job at our blessing on the 4th of May. I am so sorry I was not able to meet you or thank you in person. The ceremony was a bit of a whirlwind and before I knew it you had gone. All of the guests thoroughly enjoyed it especially my husband and I. We will highly recommend you to any friends or family in the future. Many many thanks again for doing a superb job. Hopefully we will have the opportunity to meet someday. All the best.”

“Just a note to thank you so very much for playing at our wedding at the Grim's Dyke Hotel on Saturday. It was an absolutely perfect day and your input, outside at the drinks reception and inside in the music room, was superb. At the time of booking, I had no idea just how much your recital would add to the occasion - it just seemed a good idea. How wrong I was! Your playing just transformed the occasion - not a good idea, an idea that lacks the superlatives to describe it, an amazingly wonderful idea. Our day was the best it could be and I thank you for your wonderful part in it.”
- Jane Rowland

We loved the way you mixed styles, genres and eras. Favourites were Dr Who Theme, Teddy Bears Picnic and Elbow - one day like this. We would recommend you to anyone.

“Just a quick note to say a BIG thank you for the wonderful music at our wedding on Sat 28th May. It made the occasion so special.

“Hello to you all, We hope you got home safely after the blizzard on saturday. We would all like to say thank you so much for your patience and understanding last saturday. Everyone commented on how beautifully you play,and that you made the wedding that extra bit special. Jodie walking down the aisle in candlelight to canon(pachelbel) played by yourselves is one memory i will never forget, and a picture that will stay with me forever is yourselves playing in the library room in the window in lamplight and the snow outside. It was magical. Sitting in there listening to you was just what we needed to get over the drama of earlier! From the first moment jodie saw and heard you she said that she wanted you to play at her wedding and she is so glad that you managed to get there in the bad weather. Thank you once again for making our daughters wedding day so special. I will finish off by wishing you all a very merry christmas and a happy new year..”

“We wanted to write and thank you for the absolutely beautiful
music you provided at our wedding at the beginning of August, you simply
took our breath away! We have heard much praise of you from our guests
and have agreed between ourselves and our parents that The Oberon String
Quartet was one of the best choices we made regarding our wedding. We
are also particularly grateful for your stunning arrangement and performance
of the Dr Who theme music. It meant a lot to Brian to hear such a faithful
rendition in a room where an episode of Dr Who was once filmed! Thank
you for your friendly and professional manner since our first meeting,
we will not hesitate to recommend you to friends and family. Best wishes.”

There Was You'. You really made our dreams come true. Many thanks.”

our never ending list of requests. Also for giving the Irish side of the
family the opportunity to have a good old sing - song! Everyone said how
marvellous you were. The music during the ceremony will remain with me
always, it could not have been more perfect. I especially want to thank
you for playing King of the Fairies as we entered the hall as husband
and wife, it was so thoughtful. It is a very special song for Fergus and
you obviously remembered that from when we first met you. Thank you again.”

“I wanted to write to say a big thank you for a wonderful performance
by the Oberon String Quartet at our wedding reception at Stoke Park Club
on 10th November. The music was really beautiful and many of our guests
commented on how much they enjoyed your performance. I would also like
to thank you for providing one of the most moving moments of the day when
you played Mascagni's Intermezzo 'Cavelleria Rusticana' as Paul and I
prepared to make our entrance to the wedding breakfast. It was extremely
thoughtful of you to play a piece I had mentioned as being one of my favourites
as Paul and I shared a quiet moment, especially given that you had begun
to pack away your instruments! I was very touched by such a lovely gesture....our
wedding day was everything we hoped for and much more. Thank you for helping
to make it so special for us....with very best wishes to you and your
fellow musicians.”
