Absolutely Brilliant!
Fabulous!
Couldn’t have better!
We, Lysha & Stevie and all of our & their family and friends, loved every moment!
Slim Jim & The Phatts … well what can we say except WOW! and Brad as MC & DJ was just simply perfect! Every age was catered for and we saw people on the dance floor we haven’t seen dance for over a decade. Everyone said they had so much fun – I know we certainly did. Absolutely no-one left ‘early’ and everyone stayed for the entire reception. Alysha & Stephen had an absolute ball and they performed their own unique rendition of the ‘Bridal Waltz’, which was a total surprise for the Parents of the Bride & Groom and a lot of fun … all of which has been recorded on video. From all of us to all of you, our love and special thanks for everything you did for us and your total professionalism – you’re all part of our many treasured moments of the day.
Thanks
