• July 24, 2021We would just like to say that choosing Chameleon to do the evening entertainment for our wedding at Carlton Towers was the perfect ending to a magical day. We trusted their professionalism in the choice of music and they certainly didn’t let us down, people were dancing and singing along. The sound and lighting were spot on the voices blended beautifully. Thank you for a wonderful evening and would highly recommend chameleon for anyone’s up and coming event.
