“Magical Music That Made Our Day – Thank you, Cuckmere String Quartet!

From the very first note, the Cuckmere String Quartet brought something truly special to our wedding day. Their performance was elegant, heartfelt, and absolutely flawless – setting the perfect tone from start to finish.

A moment I’ll never forget was walking down the aisle to ‘The Only Exception’ by Paramore – performed so beautifully and with such emotion. It was truly magical.

They went above and beyond by learning several of our requested songs, and so many of our guests commented on how stunning the music was. The atmosphere they created was unforgettable, and we’re so grateful to them for being such an important part of our celebration.” (Laura and Daryll 31.7.24)

“Thank you again for the most wonderful and magical evening that we will never forget, we will definitely be using you in the future!” (Zoe, private dinner, Northiam, Kent 9.8.25)

“Thank you for being part of our special day and making my musical dreams come true of walking down the aisle to Taylor Swift ❤️ You are the best!” (Rachel 4/8/25)

“You were amazing!” (Sal, wedding guest 4/8/25)

“The Cuckmere string quartet were wonderful!” (Judith, 14/6/25 Beetles celebration and fund raising concert)

“We are so excited to have the Cuckmere String Quartet play at our wedding ceremony at the end of July 2024. They have made the process so far smooth and easy. They happily took on our song requests and sent us videos of the process. We were blown away by the skill and dedication they put into learning these new songs. We can’t wait for them to play at our wedding. We know they are going to make the day really special! Tissues at the ready! – Laura & Daryll xx”

“We look forward to attending the Cuckmere Quartet concerts, but this last one was particularly moving, (September 13, 2025) we were both very near to tears as the harp and strings seemed to draw us heavenwards with their performance of Faure ‘In Paradisum’. Utterly Beautiful”. (L & J)

“We were very lucky to have the Cuckmere String Quartet as part of this project – they were, and are fabulous xxx” The Company, Eastbourne June 2026

“Hi Rachel,
Just wanted to drop you a line to say a huge thank you to you and the quartet for all your wonderful work on Eastbourne Soup.
It was a real pleasure working with Cuckmere, and to feel that my arrangements were in such good hands! The show was fantastic and I really hope you all had a lovely time, sending huge thanks to you all”. Rachel Dawson (Composer and Arranger for ‘Eastbourne Soup’)

“Just a note to say how much we enjoyed and thank all four of you for your concert at St Nicholas Church, Pevensey on 13th June. It was a lovely summer evening. I know you worked hard on programme choice but this paid off successfully. The variety and familiarity of the pieces produced an excellent balance.” Victor Potter (Director of Music, St Nicholas Church)
