“Dear Lizzy, Darren and I wanted to thank you for being part of our special day. We loved the traditional music during the ceremony, as well as the up-tempo tracks during the wedding breakfast. We had so many compliments that we wanted to pass on! We also absolutely adored your version of ‘Count on Me’ and I remember squeezing Darren’s hand during the signing of the register as we listened! We will recommend you to all our friends.” - Wedding, Derby

" It was my partner’s 50th Birthday and I wanted to do something "special". After reading many reviews I opted for Lizzy May. I can honestly say it was one of the best decisions I ever made. From the moment of first contact the whole process was made so easy in huge part due to Lizzy responding to any queries quickly and keeping in touch. She is genuinely a lovely young lady, with a very easy, personable nature and a complete professional at all times, arriving at the venue in plenty of time to get set up and get acquainted with us. She was very accommodating and flexible in her work - we were a little disorganized ourselves at times! Lizzy just worked with us every step of the way. The performance itself consisted of one part acoustic, which provided a lovely backdrop to guests eating and drinking, then the electric show, when everyone stopped what they were doing to watch this amazing artist perform.  We were a mixed crowd of all ages. One of our octogenarian guests - needless to say has seen plenty in her life - summed it up when she left commenting what I heard many times since: " That is an evening I will never forget." That absolutely says it all. Thank you Lizzy" - Private Party, Bury St Edmunds

 

“Thank you so much for making our day so very special! We really are grateful and loved every minute of your performance and so did all the guests. They could not praise you enough and you are very much talked about by everyone!!” - Wedding, Camden Town

 

“We have received a lot of very nice comments from guests who attended the event and all were full of praise for your act. You managed to hit it just right with the blend of music and it topped off the evening perfectly. A number of people have said that they think the event was the best we have ever done and I'm quite sure that the way you managed to finish off the evening so well had a lot to do with that.

You are clearly a very talented lady and will be talked about by our guests for some time to come. I would have no hesitation in recommending you for any corporate event and the only problem we have now is how we top that next year!!” - Corporate Event, Peterborough

 

“We absolutely LOVED your music on our wedding day! The choice of songs were perfect and my bridal entrance/exit to Kabhi Kabhi was fantastic and impressed so many of my guests. You were so reliable and on time which was so important to me because it really put me at ease. We both felt you went that extra mile for us despite the poor weather and change of location. Although the jaguar bar wasn't ideal and didn't give you much room to set up, all my guests commented on the electric pop show after the ceremony and said you were passionate and entertaining. They had never seen anyone like you before. I cannot thank you enough for everything you did on the day. My only regret is that I didn't get to stop and thank you in person. I will definitely recommend you in future.” - Wedding, Orsett Hall, Essex

 

“I booked Lizzy May for my wedding to provide some background music with dinner. She performed this task very professionally and kept our guests engaged with some beautiful music which provided a perfect ambiance. Her special talent was really evident during her Electro Cello set that she performed as the start to our evening disco. By the end of her first song everyone was dancing around and cheering her to play more. Lizzy really knows how to play a crowd, and helped make my wedding something people still talk about today – I’d book her again without hesitation for any event in the future!” – Wedding, Eversley, Hants

Lizzy's performance was outstanding and all of our guests commented on how good she was. We are already planning to book Lizzy for our anniversary party!”  - Wedding, Witney

 

“Thank you so much for playing at our wedding. You put together the song of our choice beautifully for when we signed the register. All the music during the ceremony and afterwards was amazing.

“Lizzy and Marsha are a class act. From arrival to departure their enthusiasm, spirit and demeanour was so pleasant and our 80 guests just have not stopped talking about their magnificent performance. With an age range of 9 yrs old to 90, all were totally enthralled throughout the two set act. They were not only musically superb but were stunning and eye catching, with both music and choreography.

They need to raise their fees, and they would still be worth every penny!

A masterpiece of excellence, thank you and please pass on our sincere gratitude, especially from my wife Sarah (for whom they were a complete surprise) and our friends and family from all over UK (and even a father from Australia).

Thank you again”  - Private Party, Diss

“Everybody enjoyed your performance. Our Client was very happy....they asked me if there is any video as they would like to keep it for a good memory of the occasion.” - Private Party, Pisa, Italy

 

"What can I say about Ashanti Strings? They're a professional, trustworthy and absolutely awesome outfit. Having seen the same, repetitive entertainment at weddings, receptions, etc (on the asian wedding circuit) I opted to go for Ashanti Strings for being unique and innovative.

They played background music as guests arrived and through a small ceremony and then came back for an electric show. Both were sensational and received rave reviews from the audience. I have no hesitation in providing them with a personal endorsement and I look forward to seeing their new upcoming routines. A big thanks to the entire team!!" - Indian Wedding
