"Dave – I honestly want to thank you for helping to make our wedding day so fantastic. You set the perfect atmosphere. I hope our paths cross again…. I’ll certainly recommend you to anyone I know getting married."
"We were delighted with his music! And even better, our guests loved him too!!! Everybody was talking about him after the wedding. It was pleasant, enjoyable, I couldn’t recommend him enough. Not only his music, but also, he is a lovely man. Thanks for playing the songs we asked, even the last-minute Brazilian song that my friends were asking for you were the best! We really appreciate him staying longer as well, everybody was so happy!
Thank you very much!"
