Wedding: Encore St Kilda. I just wanted to say a huge thanks for the fantastic job you and the guys did at our wedding on 17 November). It was the perfect mix of jazz, gypsy and French and we have had so many comments from guests about how awesome the band was. Even my mum, who is not really into that type of music, was raving about how much she loved every song and how she wants to download your playlist from the day onto her ipod!  You really set the tone for our perfect day – it was exactly what we were aiming for and we were very impressed with the level of skill and professionalism demonstrated by all members of the band. I will definitely be recommending you! Amber and Mickey.

North Western Vascular Christmas Party – Essendon. Jen and Ernie were very well received and they were a joy to have. We thoroughly enjoyed their music and singing and would certainly have them again as well as recommend them to anyone having a party. Many of our guests commented on having enjoyed the entertainment.  Anna – North Western Vascular Party

I was about to send you a couple of photos from our wedding (Nov 26), when it occured to me that I never actually thanked you after the wedding for what an amazing performance you guys put on. We loved every song and you added so a lively atmosphere to the wedding. Thank you so much, you were fantastic. Thanks again, The Cranstons, wedding @ Quat Quatta.

Just a quick note to say a HUGE thankyou for your performance at our wedding on the 28th March – the gorgeous music and atmosphere your group created was just perfect, and guest after guest commented on how fantastic they thought you were. Terry as MC worked a treat! He was hilarious and my Mum just wanted to hug him! We really appreciated the beautiful range of songs you played and the effort taken to play our bridal Tango (like something out of a dimly lit Buenos Aires bar – a CD just wouldn’t have cut it). Thanks again for contributing to our truly unforgettable day, and we’ll be in touch as my Mum wants to book you for her 60th! Kind regards, Anita and Brett Comber.

I just wanted to drop you a quick note to say thanks again for the beautiful music at our Jan 5th wedding. You were so professional and the sound was just lovely, we couldn’t have asked for anything more. I will always remember Ashokan Farewell as I came down the isle – just perfect. Emily and Shaun.

Once again, we would like to express our appreciation for your performance at our wedding last October. We have so many nice comments from our guests about your performance. Thanks for your beautiful music and I hope I will get to see al of you again once again in the future. Duc & Hien Ho.
