Made our day incredible!
We booked Dolce Strings for our wedding in November and they sounded absolutely incredible. They played at the church venue and I'd definitely recommend the quartet in the church if you want to fill the room.
Booking was seamless and they were more than happy to play a few songs that were not on their repertoire. They also gladly repeated any songs that we missed and they provided an amazing ambience at our drinks reception too.
100% recommend Dolce Strings and thanks again for making our day incredible!

Best decision we made for our wedding day!
We hired a string duo from Dolce strings to play to welcome our guests, during our ceremony and post ceremony. They were absolutely flawless. They made my boho-bridgerton wedding dreams come true. They learned quite an obscure song for us for my entrance song and I’ll never forget the feeling when I heard it when I was about to enter the ceremony room, I’m so grateful to them for that moment! Also, hearing such a gorgeous rendition of ‘wildest dreams’ by Taylor Swift when we were signing the register is now one of my top life moments! An absolute dream and pleasure to communicate with and the best decision we made for our wedding day - if you are on the fence about whether you need a string duo/quartet at your wedding, get off it! You definitely do and you need these lovely, insanely talented people! Thank you so much!

Impressive repertoire!
Can't thank Dolce Strings enough for playing at our wedding. Their repertoire is so vast, there was something for everyone, but it was topped off by the fact that they learnt the song to play as my wife walked down the aisle, and played such an incredible version of it. I would heartily recommend them to absolutely anyone, you won't be disappointed. Thank you so much!

Surpassed all expectations
Where can we even begin to say thank you to Dolce Strings who performed at our wedding in Liverpool in August 2022!
The ladies surpassed all expectations and left our guests in awe of their talent, skill and professionalism! We can safely say that they added that something very special to the ceremony in Church and while our guests were eating. They were beyond outstanding and we couldn't recommend these ladies enough for your special day! We wanted to include three songs in the ceremony that were not on the list the quartet usually perform. Without hesitation Ines and the team learnt all three and liaised with our wedding singer so that everything was amazing and personal to us!
Thank you so much for everything!

We had the honour of having Dolce Strings perform at my sisters wedding, and I would highly recommend them to everyone. They were great at communicating and so accommodating to our needs and wishes.

Thank you to the two members of Dolce strings that came and performed at our wedding reception. They were brilliant, and I am so glad we booked them! They provided the perfect background music for the party and their set list was spot on.

Fantastic group of musicians
We had Dolce Strings for our wedding reception and ceremony. What a fantastic group of musicians they are. They played the best music when I walked down the aisle and the exit song too. Their music created the most beautiful environment from when the guests arrived until we began the speeches. They are professional and so easy to communicate with. I can not recommend them enough!

They have a huge selection of songs
Dolce Strings provided the music for our wedding ceremony as well as our wedding reception and they were flawless. They provide guidance in selecting the best songs for our church ceremony as well as playing my requested song choices. They have a huge selection of songs to choose from covering a wide range of genres. After the ceremony they packed up and moved up to our wedding reception venue where they then continued to play for our guests. Each member of dolce strings is polite, friendly and extremely talented, I highly recommend them!
