"LSQ provided ceremony and reception music at our wedding last month. The opening bars to our chosen song 'Sweet Disposition' (that the group learnt to play on request), brought tears to our eyes it was so beautiful! We had so many people telling us how much they enjoyed the music, we can't thank Rachel and the group enough for playing the soundtrack for the day we'll remember forever. They were amazing to deal with, couldn't recommend Leinster String Quartet more!!!! Edel and Caroline Brady"

"Having the Leinster String Quartet was one of the highlights of our wedding day! They were an absolute pleasure to have at our wedding ceremony. They are extremely professional, really talented and couldn't have been more willing to make sure they could do all of the pieces we wanted for our day. The girls are gorgeous and look the part for the day and are reasonably priced too. Cannot recommend them highly enough if you are looking for a string quartet for your wedding ceremony/reception music on the day. They can do traditional and contemporary, we had a mix of both and they were amazing."

"The Leinster String Quartet performed music during our wedding ceremony in Cavan this year. We really don't know how to thank them enough for the amazingly beautiful music they provided at our ceremony. They truly made the day and the ceremony so special and everybody at the wedding was absolutely blown away by their performance. I know that some of our guests were so impressed that they even thanked the group personally for the music following the ceremony. Their performance throughout the ceremony was a real highlight of the entire day. Leading up to the day, they really went above and beyond in terms of preparing the music for our big day. I’m a composer myself, and Rachel helped me with putting together an arrangement of one of my own compositions to be performed at the ceremony. The performance of the piece was absolutely stunning, even better than I ever could have imagined. Their approach to the whole day was incredibly professional. I really can’t speak highly enough of them in every aspect of preparation and performance. They are an immensely talented group, as well as being extremely accommodating. Thanks so much again for everything. We felt so lucky to have you perform at our wedding ceremony. Dave and Dee"
