The Capriccio String Quartet were wonderful to work with. They were accommodating of every logistical challenge, arriving in a single car due to parking restrictions at the Oxford Botanic Garden, and performing beautifully on a sweltering heatwave day. Their repertoire spans pop to classical, and we chose our personal favourites for the drinks reception. Walking in from the church to their music set the scene perfectly. So many guests commented on the beautiful ambiance they created!!
Response from the owner:We absolutely loved playing for you in Oxford botanic Garden. It was the perfect place under the tree on what was a very hot day. The guests were all so appreciative and we had an amazing time. Thank you so much for leaving such a lovely review it means so much to us.

We asked Capriccio String Quartet to play at our daughter’s wedding and they were absolutely fantastic. They played us down the aisle, during the signing of the register and then during the welcome at Kingscote Barn. A mixture of classical and pop played to the highest standards, with skill and musicality second to none. If you are looking for a quartet for your special occasion, this is the one. Thank you for making this day so special.

We cannot recommend this string quartet highly enough. They played at our wedding at Lapstone Barn on 15 June 2026, and they were simply outstanding. From the moment I walked down the aisle to one of my favourite songs, played so beautifully by the quartet, I knew we'd made the right choice. It was one of the most emotional moments of the day, and their performance made it even more special. Throughout the day, so many of our guests commented on how incredible they were and how much their music added to the atmosphere. They brought such a timeless elegance to our wedding and created the perfect soundtrack for our celebrations. Thank you for helping make our day unforgettable. We'll always treasure the memories you helped create and wouldn't hesitate to recommend you to anyone looking for exceptional musicians for their wedding. Rebecca & David x
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for booking us to be part of your day! We really enjoyed playing for you and your guests.

We engaged Capriccio String Quartet for our wedding in March 2026. at Water’s Edge at Ewen. From the first point of contact the communication flowed and all queries were responded to promptly. The group has an impressive repertoire and we selected a mix of classical and contemporary pieces. The music was beautifully played and kept all of our guests entertained pre and post ceremony, until we went in to our wedding breakfast. Their presence made our day extra special and our guests are still commenting on it now. We cannot recommend Carpriccio Quartet highly enough.. our big day would not have been the same without them.

We booked Capriccio Quartet to play at our wedding in December 2025. They were absolutely amazing and made our ceremony and reception feel that extra bit special. They have a broad repertoire and we enjoyed hearing everything from classical through to film music and pop songs. We had so many guests comment on how much they loved the music - we couldn't recommend them enough!
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for such a lovely review! What a gorgeous wedding at a beautiful venue! I am so glad everyone enjoyed the music. Such a pleasure to play for you.

We were amazed by Cappricio Quartet at our wedding and cannot recommend them enough! The ceremony music was beautiful and I will never forget waiting to walk down the aisle and hearing them start to play so beautifully! The guests all loved the fun covers during the reception drinks and it was extra special to have Lynette playing after being taught both violin and piano by her for many years when I was younger! Thank you so much! It made our day perfect!
Response from the owner:My goodness, what a huge honour it was to play for you! Super special when you’ve known somebody since they were about eight years old! I’m incredibly happy for you both and it was such a wonderful wedding to be part of. Thank you so much for booking us!x

We booked Capriccio Quartet to play at our wedding on 12th October 2025, and I can’t rate them highly enough. They play beautifully, and their presence made our day absolutely magical. They played our chosen songs for the ceremony and drinks reception, and all of our guests were completely blown away by how brilliant they are. They have a fantastic choice of songs to pick from, and play modern popular music as well as classical. They even took the time to learn a new song specifically to play for us, which was wonderful. Their warm and friendly personalities add to their professionalism, and they truly made our day. We would highly recommend them for any wedding ceremony/party. We will cherish the memories they have given us forever - thankyou so much to Lynette and the fantastic musicians. Jenefer & Paul Keegan 12/10/25
Response from the owner:The atmosphere of your wedding was just brilliant! Everybody was so appreciative and so lovely. We had great fun playing the arrangement you asked for and it will stay firmly in our music pads. An amazing Wedding thank you for asking us to be part of it.

We just wanted to say a heartfelt thank you for performing on our wedding day. The music was beautiful, elegant and created such a dreamy atmosphere. Many of our guests commented that they felt like royalty or in an episode of Bridgerton. We really enjoyed how you played current pop songs bringing them to life through the string instruments. Thank you again, we’re grateful to have had you as part of our celebration.
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for taking the time to leave a review. It means so much to us to know that we have brought something special to your day. I love the fact that they felt like they were on the set of Bridgerton!

We had Capriccio to play at Broadfield for the first time yesterday and were so impressed, both by their beautiful music but also by the quartet themselves and what lovely people they are. They played so wonderfully for one of our couples' wedding ceremonies, as well as playing as guests arrived, creating a magical atmosphere in our woodland. They were an absolute joy to listen to and we would love to welcome them back to Broadfield. Absolutely recommended for a wedding or any other event.
Response from the owner:We loved visiting you for the first time. We thought we had walked into a magical world. your venue is truly stunning and we loved playing in the beautiful Woodland setting. thank you for making us so welcome.

We've just had Capriccio play at our church wedding ceremony this week in the Cotswolds - they were utterly brilliant and made the atmosphere amazing - and kept the atmosphere relaxed and fun amid bride logistical issues on the day! Communication was brilliant and we are so happy we chose the incredible musicians of Capriccio to play during our wedding ceremony. Hugely recommend!
Response from the owner:Thank you so much Joe and so glad we were able to play even more music than planned. It was a lovely atmosphere. A pleasure to be part of your special day.

We had the absolute pleasure of having Capriccio Quartet perform at our wedding at Manor by the Lake, and it was truly unforgettable. I’d never been to a wedding with a string quartet before, and having them play at ours made the day feel even more magical. Their talent is exceptional, and the range of music they offer is fantastic, they’d even recently updated their playlist, so we had even more beautiful pieces to choose from. I honestly could have listened to them all day, their performance added such an elegant and emotional touch to the atmosphere. Thank you so much for helping make our day so special. With love, Tom & Verity Bailey x
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for taking the time to review us and I’m so delighted that our music went down well on your day. So glad you like our updated music list! we do enjoy updating on a regular basis to keep as current as possible.

We used Capriccio quartet for our church wedding ceremony on 15th March 2025. They have a great selection of song choices and played beautifully throughout the ceremony. Lynette was quick and efficient responding to emails and messages. You will not be disappointed using Lynette and her team. Thank you very much team Capriccio quartet, you made our ceremony even more beautiful with your music.
Response from the owner:It was really wonderful to be part of your service and we enjoyed playing all the hymns for you as well as all of your song choices for the service and beforehand. Thank you for such a lovely review!

We booked the Capriccio String Quartet for our wedding in November this year and I truly can't thank them enough for their performance. Being a musician myself, I was particularly fussy over the entertainment we had for the day but I honestly cannot fault Lynette and her ensemble. Their repertoire was extensive and catered for all tastes, and we even go to pick the songs they performed. They also learnt and performed two obscure tracks we requested that were not in their repertoire which they performed impeccably. Lynette was professional throughout ensuring we were kept informed throughout the whole process to ensure a stress and hassle free booking throughout from our end. Thank you Capriccio String Quartet!
Response from the owner:Wow Dan that’s such a lovely endorsement from a fellow musician. Thank you so much!

Capriccio Quartet were amazing. The communication from day 1 was spot on. It was easy to select the music in advance and even gave the option to purchase a song not on their list. On the day they arrived early and were professional in their set up and how they looked. Our guests loved the quality of the music and it added extra interest to our wedding day. I would highly recommend to other couples
Response from the owner:Oh my goodness how special to get two 5 star reviews on the same day. Thank you SO much Alan. We loved playing that special request for you. We love playing special requests as it makes it even more personal to your day.Thank you SO much for taking the time to review us. 🙏

Yes, the fantastic reviews are fully justified. We had the great pleasure of having the Capriccio Quartet performing at our wedding at Hampton Court Castle this year. They played several classical pieces during the ceremony, bringing floods of tears out of everyone, and we were especially impressed with their fantastic job accompanying the hymn 'Jerusalem' as the chapel didn't have an organ! We selected some pop songs from their extensive repertoire for the drinks reception, and these were performed perfectly and several guests told us how much they had enjoyed the music. Further to their performance on the day, the process of booking and organising what we wanted was easy and reassuring. Lynette stayed in touch with us and always replied promptly to any queries. This is exactly what we wanted to minimise pre-wedding stress! Thank you to all those at Capriccio Quartet for providing some of the highlights and most emotionally resonant moments of our wedding. Very highly recommended (and also very good value!).
Response from the owner:Thank you so much! It was such a pleasure chatting in the lead up to your wedding and such a pleasure to play for your special day.We love to belt out a good hymn! SO glad your guests enjoyed our playing too.

Capriccio played at our ceremony and wedding reception at Birtsmorton Court and they were absolutely incredible! Their ability to take modern songs and make them sound so classic is unbelievable and we had all of our guests commenting on how they made the day so special. We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect soundtrack to us walking down the aisle and then moving (very seamlessly!) to our reception drinks. Perfect in every way!
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for such a lovely review. Such a pleasure and so glad your guests enjoyed our music! Much appreciation indeed Abigail!

Capriccio were absolutely amazing ☺️ they learnt two new songs for us, one of which had me in happy tears before I could make it up the aisle! They also changed location for our reception drinks so we could all still enjoy the music. Organising was straightforward and would really recommend them!

We had the most wonderful experience with Capriccio String Quartet a couple weeks ago when they played at our wedding. They really added a magical touch to the day, and so many of our guests have commented on how much they enjoyed their performance. They started off by playing in a woodland for our ceremony and then seamlessly moved back to the venue for the drinks reception where they continued playing. Lynette's communication was fantastic in the lead up, and they were so accommodating in terms of what we were after. Thank you all so so much!
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for taking the time to write such a lovely review. It was a truly memorable woodland ceremony and so wonderful to be playing as well as listening to incredibly talented other musicians taking part in your ceremony. Wishing you both much happiness together and plenty of wonderful memories of your special day!

We were so glad we chose Capriccio Quartet to play at the grand opening of our new offices in Cirencester. Their range is impressive, covering every type of music from classical to contemporary to jazz to pop and rock favourites – you name it, they’ll play it. They brought an extra dimension to the event, something different and fun that was really appreciated by our guests. They were a pleasure to work with, friendly, accommodating and very professional, so if you’re organising a corporate event, you can book them with total confidence. We look forward to engaging them again in the future.
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for such a lovely review. I’m so glad that your guests enjoyed our music and that we brought something extra to your event. We certainly had a fabulous time and everybody was so appreciative.
