Hi Lizz,

Thank you so much.  We had a wonderful day and your playing was fantastic.  Hearing you play us in so beautifully was a wonderful moment which we shall treasure.  
You were great.

If you ever need a testimonial, just ask!

All the best,
Amy & Pier x

Dear Lizzie,
 
I believe that Amy has already written to you, offering her thanks, but my husband, Chris, and I would just like to add our own personal “thank you”, too, for your truly wonderful violin-playing at Amy and Pierluigi’s Wedding on 27th May. 
 
It was breathtakingly beautiful.  So many people remarked upon it, and it really made the atmosphere so heart-warming during that lovely wedding ceremony.
 
Amy and Pier are now enjoying their honeymoon, and, by all accounts, supping lots of delicious cocktails, while happily reminiscing about that wonderful wedding day, which you helped tremendously to make so special.
 
Thank you, again, Lizzie.  We shall most certainly bear you in mind for any future events, and highly recommend you to family members and friends.
 
With very best wishes,

Linda Ewbank

Thank you for travelling we thought you were wonderful and our guests commented not just once but a few times how great you were.

All the best for the future and if I hear of anybody wanting a violinist I will definitely pass your details on.

Dear Lizz,

I am writing to thank you for the most excellent evening of your performance at the host night of the 48th Annual Convention District 105a Lions Clubs International.

Everyone thoroughly enjoyed your playing and the repertoire, it catered for all tastes and age range. I have received many congratulations on a superb evening entertainment which is all down to you. Your presentation, charm and personality captivated the many Lions who were there and help make a thoroughly enjoyable and memorable evening for everyone.

I know that many expressed interest in having you attend other functions and I hope they are as good as their word.

Once again, thank you, for a most memorable evening and for such delightful playing.

With best wishes

Dear Lizz,

We just wanted to say a massive thank you for doing such a fantastic job at our wedding two weeks ago. Sorry it's taken us so long to email - we went to Iceland on honeymoon then had another break with the children straight after so we're just getting back into normal life :)

You were absolutely amazing!! Hearing you playing as I walked down the aisle is a memory that will stay with me forever. You played so beautifully during the ceremony and everyone has been talking about how great you were when you were walking around playing during the drinks reception (sadly we missed a lot of this as we were off having our pics taken). My mother-in-law in particular said that she thought you were just incredible. You did such a great job and we would recommend you to anyone. Thank you for helping to make our day so special.


love
Anna and Rob Hawthorne

Review from our Venue

On behalf of our client suppliers and our staff we found that it was spectacular to listen to a professional violinist. It opened every bodies eyes to see a brilliant musician.  You took to the stage and opened our hearts to the warmth of playing some of the great composer's compositions. Lizz constantly kept our attention.

It was a fantastic evening and we wish to praise Lizz for her performance and to recommend Lizz to other organisations or for family functions i.e weddings, anniversary or parties. It gave a great ambiance to the atmosphere and it was a joy to listen and watch her.
  
Many thanks for the great pleasure you brought to our clients and staff members.

  
Kind regards

Hi Lizz,

Apologies for not being in touch sooner; there was rarely a phone signal
during our trek, and I had just wanted to check you had a safe journey home.

Thank you so much for attending our wedding; you brought a few tears to
Jackie's eyes just before she walked out and so it was just perfect. Being
such an informal wedding, it was so nice that you were able to just go with
the flow during the various stages of the ceremony - it couldn't have been a
better arrangement for us.

I have attached a few pictures..
Thank you once again for making our day so special.

Crowne Plaza Hotel, Marlow - 29.05.11

Hi Liz,

Just a quick note to say thank you so much for being part of our day.

I'm so glad we opted for the electric violin in the end, I remember being at the bottom of the stairs with my new wife before our first entrance after having our photos taken and hearing this amazing sound coming from the bar area and saying to her, that can't be Liz can it?

What an amazing day, everything was so perfect, I've already had positive feedback from several guests and emails asking me for your contact details - do you need an agent ;-)

Thanks again,
Love Jon & Reena x

Hi there!

I've been meaning to e-mail you in AGES and I'm so sorry I haven't done so sooner. I wanted to thank you so much for playing at our wedding and for being so lovely and accommodating with all my tune choices! Of all the feedback we've had about our wedding and elements of it, most comments have been about you and how amazingly you played! For me too, the violin music was one of my best memories and in particular walking into the chapel to Per Una Cabeza. I was so impressed and amazed how tirelessly you played (I didn't see you take a break once!) and the pieces played were perfect.

Thanks again!

Hi Lizz

Just wanted to say a huge thank you for saturday, the whole wedding was amazing and you were a perfect part of it all! We truly were delighted. Libby has asked me to apologise to you for having been unable to talk to you properly due to photo and time constraints, but she will probably drop a note to you upon their return from Mexico ( they have gone to enjoy a bit of salsa! )

Take care and thanks again Lizz
