“I was looking for a quote for a violinist for 05/10/24 for my wedding day in Gretna Green.
After numerous searches I came across Emma’s page. I can honestly say she’s amazing.
Emma has got back to me straight away with any queries I had. I changed my mind with
song choices and she was happy to amend. I also asked if she could do a video of her on
the violin to a certain song and she also did that for me no problem. I would recommend
her to anybody. She turned up on my wedding day and the guests said she was great.
Thank you so much Emma. You have been fantastic and you’re such a lovely person :-)”
Tonya H, October 2024, Gretna Green
We decided we wanted a violinist to play at our wedding in a very small local church ans a surprise for our guests and we came across Emma and fell in love with her music and style and loved her song list! She is quick to respond to our enquiry and full of information to help us plan our ceremony with various song choices.
I can not recommend Emma enough to add something special to your wedding. All our guests loved her and thought she added something extra to our day. Thank you Emma you were amazing!
Chloe S, September 2024, Low Dinsdale Church,

straight away that we’d requested and played so wonderfully. All of our guests loved the
music and it made our wedding feel even more special. Thank you.”

“Wow, what an amazing talent. We asked the lovely Emma if she would play for our wedding on
31/12/2023 and what an amazing set she performed. From our first initial contact, Emma was so
lovely and helped with any questions or concerns we had. Nothing was too much of an ask for
Emma, even to learning a bespoke song to be played whilst we walked down the aisle.
Our guests all commented how good she was and would have loved to have listened to Emma play
all day.
It was such a pleasure to have Emma play such a beautiful part of our day and the memories will
live with us forever.
Thank you so so much
Love Ashley & Ryan”

guests were all commenting how beautiful the ceremony music was! Thanks so much
Emma xx”

Reassured us throughout, very professional. And her actual music on the day was so beautiful and
amazing. All the guests commented on how beautiful the ceremony was. Really recommend Emma
such a talented lady.”
Michelle, September 2021, Hardwick Hall Sedgefield
“If you are considering booking Emma for your wedding we highly recommend you do!
We booked Emma as we wanted a violinist to play a particular song that was special to us, not only
could Emma do this and many other songs but she also sent us a video of her playing our song
prior to booking to ensure we liked the version she played. It was perfect!
Emma has been brilliant at replying to our messages and has made great suggestions for song
choices.
Emma played prior to ceremony whilst guests took there seats and after whilst they congratulated
us on our marriage.
The most important moment for us was when I walked down the aisle.
The moment I heard our song I instantly felt emotional, hearing it played so beautifully. The
ambiance of the violin really does create a wonderful atmosphere.Thank you so much for helping
to make our day special.”

I am only getting a chance now to message you seems as though stuff has died down a little bit.
We both want to thank yourself and David for your perfect performance at our Wedding Ceremony. It added so much to the occasion for us and it was everything we had hoped it would be.
I don't know if many of our guests expressed it to yourselves directly on the day , but many did so to ourselves and so I am passing on all those positives now.
If you pass me on any place you want me to leave feedback online I would love to do so.
Thank you once again,
It was perfect.
Ger and Emma Hallahan

Emma is always so professional, prompt, smart and helps every event have such an elegant touch. I would definitely use Emma again in the future.
