Testimonials

Good morning Jennie and Meta ,

I just wanted to say a huge thank you for the wonderful music you provided at our wedding. Your version of the 'Buffy' theme was the perfect start to our wedding. I honestly thought I was going to break down and lose it when you started playing! It was a wonderful version and the perfect accompaniment to my wife's walk down the aisle.

Unfortunately we did not get to hear you play during the reception as we were having our photos taken. I am told by our guests however that they thoroughly enjoyed the music and would recommend you for future functions.

Wishing you all the best and thank you once again,

Jennie & Meta played at my own wedding 10 years ago and everybody commented on how wonderful their music was and how it added to the occasion. My daughter, who was a bridesmaid that day, asked for Bagatelle Duo at her wedding on the 20th June this year and once again they complimented the day perfectly and created the perfect ambience and helped create a magical day for my daughter. I would highly recommend these two lovely ladies to anybody who wants some amazing 'live' background music to create the perfect atmosphere'.

Kind Regards,

Hi Jennie and Meta,

I booked Bagatelle Duo to play in the background at the reception I held in Middle Temple Hall on 25th February 2015 to celebrate my appointment as Queen’s Counsel. Jennie and Meta were absolutely excellent for this occasion. They provided a wonderful musical background to the occasion as well having a very impressive visual impact. They were thoughtful enough to contact me before the reception in order to discuss my requirements and theirs. I would enthusiastically recommend them, without hesitation, for any occasion, as I am sure would all my guests, many of whom commented to me about them in complimentary terms.

Hi Jennie & Meta,

We just wanted to thank you for helping us choose the right music for our wedding day so perfect. The music in the ceremony sounded amazing and so many of our guests commented on it as creating an incredible atmosphere for us to marry in. To top it all they loved the Bollywood tracks played during the lunch.

Thank You.

Bagatelle duo were perfect for our muslim wedding ceremony and reception they added a relaxed yet elegant feel to our occasion and played a mixture of the favourite contemporary, classical, disney and Bollywood tracks we requested.

Hi Jennie and Meta
I am so sorry that I did not have a chance to speak with you on Friday. Your music was really lovely, made such a lovely addition to Clare's wedding and everyone I spoke to thought you made beautiful music together.
Sorry if our guests seemed to leave you and wander off, after the ceremony, but many have commented about you.
Really made me smile with the music Clare chose for her entry and exit at the ceremony.

Thanks again,
Barbara Steventon, Fanhams Hall, August 2013

Hi Jennie and Meta

A belated huge thank you for playing so delightfully at Lauren's wedding at Wentworth Golf Club, Surrey. I only heard you as I walked up the aisle but so many people commented on how lovely your music was.

The wedding was wonderful. All went beautifully and we can now relax!

Dear Jennie and Meta,

Thanks again for your beautiful playing at our wedding at Fennes! The music really did make our day; especially your rendition of our song choice of Glasgow Love Theme. Everyone was mesmerised by the music, and you definitely stirred everyone's emotions! You were punctual, professional and polite, and it was a pleasure to have you with us for our special day. We will definitely be recommending you to our friends and family in the future.

All the best,

Jennie and Meta

I would like to say a very big ‘thank you’ for your playing at my daughter’s wedding last Friday.

I had not known that you were going to be there, as your coming had been arranged without my knowledge. What a fantastic surprise! It really started the reception off well: sipping champagne in the sun in the hotel garden, with your exquisite harp and flute music. Especially when you kindly played Satie’s Gymnopodie for me. This is one on my enduring memories of the day.

Your subsequent playing for the wedding breakfast really put the atmosphere on a level different from most receptions. Many people there commented to me on how beautiful it was, with the music having put the cherry on the top of the icing on the cake, so to speak.

Again, many thanks.

Hi Jennie,

A big thanks to you and Meta for the beautiful music on our Wedding Day. There were many compliments from our guests, who really enjoyed it, and that's not to mention myself and Dave.

It was a beautiful day, but rather hot for you both I'm sure, however you played on like true professionals.

Thank you very very much for making it so special.

Dear Jennie and Meta,

I just wanted to say thank you again for your performance at my wedding on Saturday. I had many compliments from my guests who thoroughly enjoyed your playing and felt that it created a wonderful atmosphere in the marquee. Myself and my new husband certainly echo these sentiments. The music set the perfect tone. It was also lovely to chat with you and I appreciated you taking the time to share with me the passion you have for your music and for the beautiful antique harp. I can now say that I played a harp on my wedding day, not something that every bride can boast.

I look forward to hearing you playing again at the wedding for Jon and Louisa in December.

With huge thanks,
