Your level of enthusiasm is what truly separates you from other bands we’ve seen; it was very apparent that you all love what you do and have fun while doing it. Aside from that, you not only were extremely receptive to hearing out our wishes, paying close attention to details that were important to us, but you also made certain that the events throughout the entire ceremony and reception flowed smoothly and seamlessly. It was such a tremendous relief to have all of that taken care of for us, so that we were able to enjoy our special day without having to worry or stress about a single thing!
