  • Thank you for making our day so special! I have received so many positive comments from the guests about the music but also about how lovely you were as people. Thank you for playing Twinkle Twinkle for my nephew. He was so inspired that he might pick up an instrument!

  • Jude and Vicky were a delight to work with. Great communication before the event, turned up in plenty of time to set up, looked amazing in their outfits and played a fantastic collection of music. It was a present for my mother in law and she absolutely loved it. Would highly recommend Astri Strings to anyone.

  • We booked Astri Strings for our celebration event at The Post Barn, Newbury. Jude was a delight to deal with during the booking stage, gave us a lovely pre-event call to check everything was in order and arrived as planned on the day. Jude and Vicki provided the perfect background music for our event with a gorgeous mix of Classical and Bridgerton style music to welcome guests arriving. Everyone appreciated having live musicians as they looked fabulous and sounded fantastic. Thank you both, from the WD Farmers team, for making our event extra special.

  • “We are so happy we chose Astri Strings to play during our wedding ceremony. Not only were they friendly, flexible, and professional from the outset - with an extensive repertoire and willingness to learn new pieces - but they are such a talented duo and really set the scene for our special day.”

  • "A great addition to our special day!! Astri Strings played beautifully for our ceremony, in what is quite a nervous and emotional time. The ladies played songs that mean a lot to me and my wife and really made the ceremony exactly what we had dreamed of. Jude was excellent ahead of the event, ensuring we had the perfect song list and timings for the day. A number of our guests also commented on how lovely the music was. Many thanks"

  • “Victoria and her partner delivered a fabulous performance both in the courtyard and later after dinner in the Orangery with a mix of classical and Bridgerton style music. They were professional and were a pleasure to liaise with in the booking process. I wouldn’t hesitate to use them again.”

  • “Vicki and Jude played at the Sostrene Grene opening event at Parkway and set the mood perfectly, creating a beautiful ambience within the store. Their level of professionalism was second to none and they fulfilled the brief we gave them to a tee. They played superbly and we would not hesitate to reach out again if we needed a string duo at any of our other events.”

  • “Vicki and Jude provided the most beautiful music at our hand fasting ceremony. It suited our outdoor setting perfectly and our guests enjoyed many different styles of music - both classical and modern. They are a very friendly, professional duo who play so wonderfully - I would absolutely book again.”

  • "We were lucky enough to have Astri Strings play at our village summer music festival accompanying a wonderful classical singer. Their session was just beautiful with many classic pieces thrilling the audience. Jude and Vicki were a delight to work with, very professional and so very talented they brought a touch of class to a day of mixed genre and sunshine. An absolute joy to have Astri Strings at our event."
