TESTIMONIALS

I just wanted to write to thank you again for the wonderful music you played for us on our wedding day in Kilkenny. We were both thrilled with the music played and our families thought all the selections were unique and perfectly suited to each part of the ceremony. The atmosphere in the church was so warm and intimate and the music only added more to that. The only thing we were disappointed with was that we only got to hear the opening notes of ‘All You Need is Love’ for the recessional! Especially the Korean ‘Arirang’ was a wonderful addition and I thank you and your group so much for learning and performing a new piece at short notice. It was a real treat for Sun’s family to hear their own traditional music as well. You were most helpful with offering your suggestions for pieces to suit each part of the cermony in the planning stages. I would never have known about some pieces if it wasn’t for you. The church music was one of the most important decisions for us to make and we couldn’t have been happier to have chosen the Kavanagh Ensemble! I will happliy recommend your group to future brides on some wedding websites if that is ok with you!

Thank you so much for making our church ceremony so beautiful with your excellent performance. The advice that you gave us in terms of music selection etc was great and made the whole process mucheasier than I would have anticipated. The music was simply gorgeous and everyone commented on it during the day. Again, a very big thank you for all your help.

Booking the Kavanagh Ensemble was seamless, very professionally dealt with at every step. We were given a playlist along with a CD with pieces of music to pick from that would be suitable for our wedding. In the end however as there is so much to choose from, we left the decisions to the people who know best, thank you Beth for picking so well for us. Thank you for helping create a wonderful atmosphere in the church the day of our wedding. It was simply wonderful. Everything was timed and played to perfection, and the music filled the church beautifully. There were a lot of compliments from our guests, and enquiries as to how and where to find the Kavanagh Ensemble. The music played was elegant, and added so much to our day, thank you so much again, and also to the four musicians who played on the day.

The music which the Kavanagh Ensemble played, framed our civil ceremony perfectly and definitely made the occasion extra special. They were tremendously supportive in helping us select suitable music and the order of it, beforehand. Their customer relations are second to none, they pay great attention to detail and are very amenable. We would have no hesitation in recommending them.

Everyone at the reception was congratulating us on the beautiful music that set the scene in the church. Well Beth I have you and your group to thank for that . From the first moment I spoke with you I knew we were in safe hands. Your professional approach and gentle manner(even with a music amateur like me ) was very reassuring.

Thank you again for making our wedding day so special and intimate. We were delighted that we chose the Kavanagh Ensemble. They were extremely efficient and helpful with the pre wedding arrangements. With a vast choice of music to suit all tastes. The quality of the music was excellent and it brought a lovely air of calmness to our church ceremony.

Absolutely fabulous performance of a very wide variety of music at our wedding at Radisson Blu St Helen’s during the marriage ceremony and the reception.
From Vivaldi to Bach, to Eleanor Rigby to Metallica (superb) including a stunning recital of Hungarian Dance No5 (by Brahms) and more. We loved the music; our guests loved the music, just brill! Plus, the Kavanagh Ensemble were just super people.

We got married at Bellinter House on January 3rd and the Kavanagh Ensemble played at our humanist ceremony and our drinks reception. They did an amazing job and every single guest commented on how good the music was and how well the Duo Ensemble played. We planned our wedding remotely and working with Beth from the Kavanagh Ensemble was so easy. Thank you for making our day extra special.
— Orla Hanrahan, Meath.
You were just stunning in your presentation, playing exactly the right pieces for the moment. Thank you so much for all you did to make Lynsey and Wes’ event so special!!! Everyone commented on such a special touch.

Thank you very much for Saturday (7th January). It was a beautiful wedding and many people stopped us on the day, and in the days following to say how wonderful you all were. Those who were accustomed to weddings even named some of the songs, stating that they particularly liked the choices we had made. Although the service went so quickly we made a conscious effort and took the time, during Communion to just sit back and listen to you, and we were thrilled with how magnificent you sounded. Thank you for making our day so special.
— Johanne and John Larkin, Wexford.
