Booked for Birthday party

I'd like to thank you Christine for making my 50th party extra special, my guest all loved you, well the ones that managed to sit in the chair. The seat was never empty, not sure how many you managed to do but there were some people that was kicking themselves as they missed the opertunity to get a drawing done. I would highly recommend and so glad I picked 4 hours as money well spent for that little bit of added extra to my party. Thank you 😊 Dawn

Booked for Wedding

We loved having Rich at our wedding. The guests were thrilled. The only downside was that myself and the groom were too busy during that time to get a proper chance to chat to Rich.
