"Dear All,
We would like to thank you for playing at our wedding in St Audries Park on 7th October 2007.
The night went with a bang with many special moments that only your band could have given to us on the unforgettable day of our life. The Cinderella Waltz was so beautiful and sweet, we will never forget the tune so well played by you all. Thank you ever so much for having given us the honour of having you play and the lovely ways you the band have patiently listened to so many requests and played so well each of them.
Your playing was a significant feature of the fairytale beauty of the day and part of the happy memories we have from the day which went well as far as we could see, as everybody seem to be very happy and cheerful.
Remaining grateful and wishing all the best for Christmas and New Year.
Mr & Mrs Antti Kesisaari"

Best of all, their wonderful playing really helped create a joyful atmosphere during our marriage ceremony, and they kept the guests well entertained during the formal photographs! Friends have already asked us for their details, and we have no hesitation in recommending them to everyone."
