Below is a small sample of the numerous notes we’ve received from our clients over the years. You can read additional reviews on our Wedding Wire page.
"When you all started playing the [special piece], you had Will and I (along with others in the bridal party) almost in tears even before we started walking. And when the second theme started, and I got to walk to it towards Will with the sunset and golden cranes behind him, it was perhaps the single most magical moment I had ever experienced!"
Meredith & Will, Bride & Groom, November 2018
"Your music added so much, both to the ceremony (and before and after) and to the ambiance for the cocktail part of the reception. It was simply lovely. I can’t wait to see and hear the video footage that was taken, as there was so much to take in at the same time, and I want to savor the musical moments!"
Gail, Mother of the Bride, December 2017
"Thank you all again for making our special day complete. You all added elegance, intimacy, and even some laughter and fun, too!"
