Hello Serenade!

You played at our wedding at Fenix restaurant on Saturday 22nd January 2005, and you absolutely set the feel for a stylish and exuberant evening.

We had SUCH a good time and the music was superb. So many of our guests have commented on how excellent your sound was - some said your music and singing were so precise that at first they thought it was a CD playing!

I could not fault your performance in any way. And your MC-ing was excellent - we had barely given instructions on what we wanted, yet despite our poor instructions you deduced the feel that we wanted, and it was casual and fun exactly as we had hoped.

I will certainly recommend you to anyone I know who needs a band.

Thank you for contributing to our brilliant memorable wonderful wedding reception!

Many thanks,

Sue and Luke

Thanks again guys, you really helped top off a great night.

Kind regards,
