My Buzz

It has been fantastic to make contact with a variety of other small businesses. The win has been a platform for raising our profile, increasing followers and a validation of what we have achieved so far. We have used a fellow #SBS company for our design and print material and many #SBS members provide invaluable support and champion each other readily!

My Bio

The Estilo String Quartet is one of the most celebrated and critically acclaimed quartets working in the South East.

Based in East London, we play for wedding and civil partnership ceremonies, receptions and corporate events. We work for leading event planners such as Mark Niemierko at Niemierko, Eventbrite, Quintessentially Events, Bijou Bride, Pink Pumpkin, Serena Coad and Danielle Nay. We have a long, diverse repertoire from Mozart, Haydn and Beethoven to arrangements of modern songs by Coldplay, Daft Punk, Muse, Jason Mraz, Katy Perry, Rihanna and Adele.

In 2012 and 2013 Estilo was nominated for the Perfect Wedding Awards (Best Entertainment), played for the opening of Oscar de la Renta Bridal on Mount Street (for Niemierko), performed with the trumpeter Tine Thing Helseth during the turning on of the Regent Street Christmas Lights for Classic FM/EMI and during the ceremony for the wedding of Peaches Geldof and Thomas Cohen. We have recently been featured in Hello! and Wedding Ideas Magazine and numerous blogs. In July Estilo was chosen as one of Jacqueline Gold's #MOM winners - a twitter based award similar to #SBS

My Business Tips

When preparing for an event clients, event organisers, wedding planners or brides expect information and answers quickly! This means being easily contactable to plan, in person, via email, twitter, telephone and all the tools of social media!

It's important to be organised and efficient and above all to listen to your clients and be prepared to give them the time and attention they deserve.

Clients enjoy and can benefit from our experience and knowledge, but in turn it is vital to turn their ideas and suggestions in to something unique and tailored just for them.
