Lisa, Cathy & Wendy sang at our Wedding on 20th September 2017, and they helped make it the most magical day of our lives. To say ‘voices of Angels’ would be an understatement. I have never seen such passion and love to be put into songs. The ladies were a joy to work with from start to finish, and their professionalism is second to none. They will be forever in our hearts, and there are just no words to describe the happiness they brought to us and our guests on our special day. Absolutely incredible. Please visit their website and see for yourself - http://www.churchweddingsingers.ie/ take a few minutes to listen to their songs, purchase their CD's, you will NOT be disappointed, there are just no words.......

It was an absolute pleasure working with the Vard Sisters. Not only are they incredibly professional and gifted at what they do but are also 3 of the nicest ladies I've worked with! The sound of their voices both individually and together adds an incredible sense of romance and an amazing atmosphere at any wedding. They have an extensive knowledge of music and were able to assist my couple in selecting a lovely mix of music to personalise their ceremony. I would highly recommend them for any couple looking to make their day extra special.
Response from The Vard Sisters
Sharon it was lovely dealing with you too and thank you for recommending us. We do take great pride in what we do and really try to make couples put huge emphasis on their wedding ceremony be it church or civil it is hopefully a once in a life time occasion that cannot be repeated. We believe Music and its delivery makes such a difference to the occasion we enjoy helping people choose their songs and like to add the ideas that we have picked up over the years and from the thousands of weddings we have sung at to the couple to ensure a magical ceremony. Hope you have another great year and we look forward to working with you again. see churchweddingsingers.ie and our new album Heavenly Too available all good record shops and on line .

We booked The Vard Sisters for our wedding ceremony in August 2016. We would like to thank them for the wonderful singing and music that they provided at our wedding ceremony. When we booked them for the ceremony music we knew they would be excellent but they were absolutely out of this world on the day and really made our wedding ceremony extra special.
We had so many compliments from our guests on the music from the ceremony and several commented that they were even moved to tears at some points.
The group were a pleasure to deal with during the lead up too, always so nice and helpful with any questions we had and always providing the right advice.
From the bottom of our hearts we would like to thank them so much for everything.

I don’t even know where to start with thanking you all for the outstanding job you did singing on our special day. You were simply incredible! Your voices are just absolute perfection. You set the most unbelievable, romantic, joyous tone for the entire ceremony and lifted everyone’s spirits. Even one of my friends didn’t believe you guys were singing live! We could not have been happier with any of it – you were all so amazing – I was mesmerised through every song! You captivated everyone. I had worried that I had made the service too long with too many songs but everyone could not get enough! You were also so helpful and encouraging in the weeks before the wedding – just a dream to work with. You helped me so much and made every step so easy for me. I have been recommending you guys to everyone. I was told by a lot of friends and family that the singing from you guys was the highlight of the day and it really was for me. It was just incredible. We have just received our wedding video and your singing gives me chills it’s so amazing. Thank you for everything and I hope to see you all again soon.

I was so pleased with the ceremony music at our wedding. It honestly was fabulous. The music & singing brought a tear to more than one eye & the Vard Sisters performance was complimented by so many of our guests. They looked fantastic, we're so respectful of the day & the surroundings & sounded absolutely wonderful.
Before the day Lisa was so helpful in advising appropriate songs for each part of the ceremony.
I wholeheartedly would recommend to anyone & am so glad we had the amazing music we had.
Other ceremony music & singers just aren't a patch by comparison.

The wedding music was always one of the most important things to be and from the minute I got in touch with Lisa I knew we had made the right decision. Being very indecisive... the help and advice I received was absolutely invaluable and nothing was ever too much hassle. I never felt like I had to stick to certain songs or choices and everything was completely our decision.
On the day we couldn't have been more delighted. Getting a supportive wink from Lisa really put us at ease and the day was so hassle free. I adored listening to every piece and the voices are just so beautiful. everyone was talking about it. I can't wait to hear it back on video and remember it all over again.
I couldn't recommend the Vard Sisters highly enough it was just superb from planning, to the start of the mass to finish.
They made our ceremony so special.

We will forever treasure the beautiful memories they helped to create and every time we hear the songs they sang, we will always be brought back to that happy day. Wow your guests and choose the Vard Sisters!
We can never thank you enough for coming to sing for us. Our guests were stunned as were we, never mind the priest as he was your biggest fan!!

It is difficult to put into words a the stunning performance The Vard Sisters gave at our wedding. When I stepped into the church and heard them singing it immediately set the tone for a wonderful day. Our guests were in awe of the beautiful harmonies and to this day are still talking about Lisa, Cathy & Wendy and their amazing voices.
From beginning to end they were brilliant to deal with. Not only were we thankful for the music – but I highly recommend that every bride check out their fantastic website. I found it so helpful and selected my readings, communion reflection and vows from it. The vows lent a huge hand in giving our day an extra special touch and made the moment very personal for both of us.
To sum up The Vard Sisters they have a lovely manner, they are the ultimate professionals, they guided me and gave great advice on song arrangement and above all they gave a breath taking, beautiful performance.

Words cannot express the professional and very caring attitude the Vards had during and on the lead up to our wedding.
Their guidance and recommendations in choosing our wedding music was so appreciated, as was their light hearted and very warm approach which would make any bride feel relaxed. Their presence made our wedding such a memorable and very elegant event. All our guests were just blown away by the music as were we. Even watching it back on DVD we still get chills. We had such an amazing day and from the bottom of our hearts we really thank you all for creating the day we had imagined.
For any bride considering wedding music I can only say that the Vard Sisters truly added a magic to our entire ceremony

To the very talented and gorgeous Vard Sisters, thank you so much for making our marriage ceremony so special. It was the highlight of the day for many people as the singing was so beautiful. Walking up the aisle to the Flower Duet still gives me goose bumps when I think about it, followed on by one after another amazing song that had some of the guests in tears (and that is saying something with our crowd). We genuinely got so many positive comments on the music and we are so glad we made the choice to go with the Vards. The music was so memorable and stands out in our heads so vividly even though most of the rest of the day was a blur!! If I could do it all again (and I would love to), I wouldn’t change one thing. Lots of love and luck.

Thank you so much for traveling to Drumraney Church. I really wanted the ceremony to be talking point of the wedding, as that is the most important part. I was so glad that we had asked you to sing at our wedding for two reasons firstly and most importantly because the singing was really fantastic and professional. Everyone commented on it and were trying to sneak a peek at you. The second reason is that you were so nice to deal with nothing was a problem and you really were open to anything that we wanted. So thank you for making our day so special. I knew I didn’t have anything to worry about from the first day I spoke to you.

We wanted to say thank you so much for singing at our wedding service. You were absolutely fantastic and I know (ourselves included), that most people in the congregation wanted to applaud you after each piece.

Dear Cathy Lisa and Wendy, Thank you all most sincerely for supporting us at the launch of Anam Cara , your voices lent their own magic to the evening and were as always so beautiful. you left hardly a dry eye in the house. I think Miriam O’Callaghan was heading back to RTE to look for a spot of camouflage make-up before venturing onto the set of Primetime. Needless to say the song spoke to most of us very profoundly and we were deeply deeply moved. Your presence and wonderful singing played no small part in the success of the evening and we were honoured to have you as part of it and remain hugely grateful Many many thanks to you all

Magical, Enchanting, Unique, and Memorable are just some of the words guests used to describe your singing on our day. People are still talking about how emotional and heart felt the ceremony was and how your beautiful voices filled the church with warmth and love. One of the highlights of our day was the church and your beautiful singing. Derek and myself don't know where to start in thanking you for helping us to create one of the best days of our lives. I wasn't nervous going up the aisle as I could hardly wait to hear your voices welcoming me in to the church. Your guidance in picking the correct songs was invaluable. Our gratitude and happiness goes beyond words. Thank you again for helping us create a day that we will definitely remember.

Ladies, Just a note to say thank you so very much for the beautiful singing at our wedding in Abbeyleix Church last October. From the moment I entered the church I felt all my nerves fleet away when I heard your beautiful voices singing “Nella Fantasia” – From that moment on I knew that the ceremony was going to be everything I hoped for, and it was.
Myself and Kevin thoroughly enjoyed the singing and it really helped us to take time out during the ceremony to relax and really remember what the day was about. Your rendition of “the Prayer” after communion had so many moved to tears – it was truly special and I will remember it always. Our guests still talk about the beautiful, moving music on the day and I really just wanted to thank you most sincerely for all your advice, guidance and reassurance in the run up to the big day.
We look forward so much to hearing you sing again at my sisters wedding this December, as do all our family as we know you will again make the ceremony so memorable and special. All the best in the meantime,

The music was incredible, so moving and far beyond what we could have hoped for. For us it made our day so special, much more memorable and The Vard Sisters were certainly a talking point for our guests who were also blown away by you! My Dad described the ceremony as "enchanting & uplifting " in his wedding speech that evening and I think that nicely captures the effect you had on everyone there, so thank you.
I am so glad now that we went for a wedding DVD as we have the pleasure of being able to hear that wonderful singing again for many years to come!

Hi Cathy, Lisa & Wendy I just wanted to say that you were just amazing at our wedding. From the minute you started to sing Nella Fantasia as I was walking up the isle everyone there just froze when they heard you sing (& I don’t think I’ll ever forget that moment). We had goose-bumps listening to you at the altar during the service and it made our wedding so special to us. In fact people at the back of the church thought that we had a CD of you singing because each song was just perfect, they got a nice surprise when they came up to the altar!!! Thanks again and for being so friendly and helpful in the weeks before our wedding. I would definitely recommend you to any bride & groom who wanted to make their wedding ceremony spectacular.

Sean and I would like to extend our sincere thanks to you and your sisters for your beautiful music at our wedding in Kilquade Parish Church. As you may have heard the priest say, I got very emotional coming up the aisle to Nella Fantasia which continued as you sung Eagles Wings! The tears kept flowing! Both Sean and I and all our guests were overcome by your voices and accompanying instrumental. It was so moving. We can't wait for our video - the highlight of the day being the ceremony and in particular your music. Cathy, on a personal level you were a pleasure to deal with in helping us select suitable music. We would have no hesitation recommending you to friends or family in the future

Hi Cathy, I just wanted to say how fabulous you and your sisters were on Friday. I went looking for you after I had greeted everyone but you had left. I can't blame you, the priest was pretty long winded and it was late and hot. We had so many compliments on the singing, not least of which was Rory’s aunt who I believe got your autographs and apparently tried to buy your cd!! Everyone said they wanted to clap after every song. One of my favourite memories of the day was just sitting at the altar watching you perform Hiding Place and all the other stunning pieces. I hardly gave Rory a look! Rory was also so impressed. Best wishes,

It was so emotional but extremely special at the same time. To be honest, I don't have words to express how delighted and privileged we felt to have you sing at our wedding. Every song was sung with feeling and absolute perfection. Its very difficult to choose a favorite but because I shed a tear to The Voice of An Angel, that is definately one song that will stay with me forever. So, thanks so much!

Hi Cathy, I just wanted to say a big thank you to you and your sisters. You made my wedding day extra special and I had goosbumps and the tears fell openly everytime you sang in the church. (23rd April, St Alphonsus and Columba, Killiney). Robert and I spend our honeymoon with the words of Nella Fantasia going around in our heads. I will never forget the day so thanks a million to you all, everybody has been calling me to say how beautiful and moving the church music was. Best wishes to you all

Thank you for playing and signing such truly beautiful music at our wedding mass in Carrigeen Co. Kilkenny on the 3rd of November. David and I have reflected on our wedding day and I can say without hesitation that your singing really made our day special. Many of our guests said afterwards that the music in the church was breathtaking and that they will never ever forget your voices which sounded like angels singing. Thanks again for your professionalism and for helping us select our songs. I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending the Vard sisters to any other couple for their wedding day. Kind regards,

"We wanted to thank you all most sincerely for singing at our wedding a few weeks ago in Glasthule church. I cannot tell you enough how beautiful both the singing and music was and how it made the wedding ceremony just so memorable not only for both of us but also for our families and guests. We greatly appreciate your input with regards the selection of the right songs. So many of our guests both local to Dublin and from further afield were so impressed and have been highly complimentary about your beautiful voices, one guest described it as "closing your eyes and feeling like you are in heaven".Thanks again for helping to make the day so beautiful and kindest regards for the future

Dear Cathy, Wendy & Lisa, Thank you all so much for making our wedding so memorable. Our aim, when planning our wedding, was to have a meaningful and moving ceremony and the rest of the day would look after itself. We are delighted that we achieved this with your help. The music and singing was fantastic and touched everyone there. Many of our guests commented that they felt they were renewing their own vows and didn't want the ceremony to end. We really are thrilled with your performance and the happy memories will remain in our hearts for a long time to come. Thanks again and kind regards

Dear Cathy
Just when you thought it safe to open your e mails here I am again!!! First of all I must apologise for such a long delay in contacting you after the wedding - we have been in France (recuperating - with lots of champagne and wine!!!) since and have only just returned.
On behalf of my daughter and our family I would like to say what a joy it was to hear your amazing voices on her special day. We were entranced as were our family and friends and it certainly was the highlight of MY day. I really did not want that part of the day to end - it was just pure magic. One of my friends has decided the Vards are singing at her funeral!! Scary! I shall be there though ... !
Thank you also for your assistance and unfailing courtesy during the process of choosing pieces for the wedding. All of our favourite songs performed so marvellously. You are a wonderful ambassador and it was a great pleasure to meet you in September. I only wish I had a few more daughters so that I could have the pleasure of hearing you all again. My husband is equally delighted we dont!! On a purely monetary basis I mean! With warm regards

Hi Cathy, Just mailing you to say thank you so so much for your beautiful singing on our wedding day. It really added to the atmosphere of our wedding Mass and so many people commented on the music afterwards. Such beautiful voices and such beautiful harmonies! Walking down the aisle with my Dad was a very special moment for me and hearing your beautiful performance of 'Nella Fantasia' made it even more special. I still get shivers down my back when I remember it! Ian and I would highly recommend you and the girls to anyone choosing music for their wedding Mass. I was so sorry I missed you after the Mass because Ian and I really wanted to thank you for everything in person. Thanks again Cathy,

Just a quick note to say thank you so much to Cathy, Wendy and Lisa for making our wedding ceremony in Rathfarnham Church so very wonderful. It was such an amazing day, which was set off to perfection by your accompaniment at the church. We really appreciate everything you did to ensure an unforgettable occasion; from your very professional and helpful advice on the songs, hymns and music that would suit the day, to the performance at the ceremony itself. It was a welcomed relief to know that once we had discussed it, that everything was then left in your hands for the day, and you delivered it to perfection. It truly was breathtaking. And although I was confident I would enjoy and appreciate it, I wasn’t quite prepared for the reaction of the guests, who were, without fail, blown away. Our heartfelt thanks to each of you for making our wedding ceremony truly memorable. With best wishes

Firstly, my sincere apologies for the delay in contacting you - we were fortunate enough to have a long honeymoon so only just arrived back a few weeks ago and have since been settling into life back on earth! Anyway, what can I say, only YE WERE FANTASTIC and I thank you for intensifying the entire experience for Nick and I, and for our guests. Your performance was not only excellent it was amazing. From the moment the music started it was incredible, your voices filled the Abbey, it was perfect. For the rest of the day, all our guests were complementing the beautiful singing and we are still hearing the raving comments about your singing and music. Thank you so much Ladies, for making our day so special and spiritual. Thank you also for all your advice and your time taken in preparing. We would recommend without any hesitation. Very best wishes to such talented ladies.

Hi Cathy, Wendy and Lisa, We just want to thank you all from the bottom of our hearts for making our Wedding Day the most beautiful and prayerful day of our lives. When those doors opened and I heard you sing Nella Fantasia all my nerves went away and I smiled the whole way down the aisle to the altar. Your voices are truly a gift from God and I am so glad that you could share them with us and our guests in Sligo . All the guests were blown away by the music, so many said it was the most beautiful wedding ceremony they have ever been to. Thank you again. Hope to see you in New York some time, let me know if ye are ever on the other side of the pond.

Dear Cathy Lisa and Wendy, I will never forget the feeling of sheer joy and excitement when myself and Dad walked into the Church. I had pictured hearing you sing the songs we had selected but I wasn't quite prepared for just how amazing it would be to hear them in person. It was truly magical. Thank you so much not just for your professionalism but for being a joy to deal with and for truly adding to the atmosphere on the day. In fact think the "testimonial" above is closer to how special it was - feel free to quote me

Dear Wendy Cathy and Lisa, Owen and I would like to thank you and your sisters for making our Wedding Day so special. The music that you all provided was the highlight of our Day, something that we will always remember. Our guests were speechless with ye're sheer professionalism and amazing voices, and are still talking about it. Church music was important to us as we wanted it to set the tone for the rest of our day so I immediately booked The Vard Sisters. And I was not disappointed, I will never forget my walk up the aisle I was overcome with emotions by the unforgettable sound (I actually cried). Cathy was very helpful and offered me some great advise on hymns for the mass - I had other ideas which she took on board and together we worked it all out. It was PERFECT. Thank you all so much.

Dear Cathy, Hope you are all well. I'm sorry it has taken me this long to write and thank you, Wendy and Lisa. I just wanted to say that I was totally blown away when I heard the first song The flower duet my dad and I were in tears walking down the isle. The music throughout the ceremony was truly amazing and for me my favourite part of the day. My mom had been at a wedding twelve years ago you guys were singing at and I remember her coming home saying Aimee these girls have to sing at your wedding when your big!! My guests enjoyed every second and are still raving about you. So..I cant thank you enough Cathy and please pass on to the other girls
