Thank you very much for helping us find the guitarist to perform at our daughter's wedding. His playing was superb and enhanced an already wonderful day for us all. He was the consummate professional. We would be delighted to recommend him personally to others for their events, as more people deserve to hear this fine musician?

Quite simply, he was excellent! He totally understood what we wanted and really delivered on the day. My daughter and her new husband were delighted with the surprise. I hope we have another occasion soon where we can call on you and him to provide such a class act.

We had so many comments from our guests about your brilliant guitar playing. I am so sorry that I did not get a chance to thank you personally on the day but we really enjoyed the music through the ceremony and the meal. Geoff, thank you for ensuring everything ran smoothly. The venue commented on how professional they thought you were in contacting them to arrange PAT testing for the guitarist's equipment. We will definitely recommend both your agency and the guitarist to our friends. Thank you again - you were both brilliant to work with.
