REVIEWS Hi Mary! Wow! That’s all we can say!Thank you so much to you and the quartet for your insanely good music yesterday. We were truly blown away - HUGE thanks from us all! Other than marrying Johnny haha, your arrangement of Samhradh Samhradh was my favourite part of the whole day - it blew my mind - the style of drone/bass line that the cello (I think?!) did was just unbelievable. Thanks also for working so well with Susan - she was superb - all thanks to your support. Thanks so much again, (Eva & Johnny, June 2019, String Quartet) Killavullen Church & Ballynatray Estate) Hi Mary, Now that everything has calmed down, I just wanted to send a quick email to thank you for playing so beautifully at the church and reception on Friday.

You were a pleasure to deal with in the lead up to the day and we could not have been happier with how it all went. I have happily recommended you to friends of mine who are getting married.

Thank you so much to you & the girls! - Emma & James (Doolin, Co. Clare, July 2017) Dear Mary, Just a note to say a sincere thank you from the bottom of our hearts. We had the most amazing day last weekend and it was truly made more magical by the stunning music you provided. I get chills up my spine, when I think back to the music and I simply cannot wait to hear it back on the video when we get it. I cannot thank you enough for your time, patience and commitment to our special day. I knew from the reviews when we booked the Munster String Quartet that we were in safe capable hands. However, I have to say when our singer had to cancel, you stepped up to the task of helping us find another singer and my word, she was unbelievable. So many people were blown away not only by her singing but also by the accompanying music. My one regret is that I didn't get to meet you on the day to thank you in person. Once again, thank you so, so much - Michelle & Barry (Killarney, April 2017) Hi Mary, On behalf of myself and Daniel, I would like to say a HUGE thank you to the members of the Munster String Trio who played at our Wedding last Friday.

I have been meaning to email you....spent initial days of honeymoon sleeping!! Thank you SO MUCH for the AMAZING music in the church last Friday.

I will be forever grateful to you for sharing this special day in our lives with us and should you ever travel to the States, you must come visit us in Minnesota!" - Mary (Mother of the Bride, Adare, Co. Limerick, 2013) "Dear Mary, We just got back from honeymoon a few hours ago and it's the first opportunity I have had to make contact since our wedding. I cannot tell you how much your music meant. It was simply extraordinary and our guests were gushing in their praise of your talents. We are still hearing from friends and family what the beautiful music meant to them. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts. We knew in advance that we had chosen exceptionally well, but on the day, your contribution to our wedding brought out such joyous emotion that we simply weren’t expecting, making the ceremony our favourite part of the day. We wish you and all your musical endeavours every success and hope to catch you again soon at one of your events" Therese & Adrian (Galway, May 2013) "Hi Mary, Just want to say a massive thank you for the beautiful music on our wedding day.
