“What a spectacular performance! We can’t thank you enough for
your amazing show which made our celebrations so much more
special! You had my husband in tears (in a good way!) and I’m so
happy things works out and you were able to perform for us! I know
how much Lucien wanted to see your act at our wedding and I’m so
grateful Teodora worked so hard to make it happen despite the last
minute changes. So thank you for everything and making our
wedding the perfect event - we couldn’t have asked for anything
more! We will definitely recommend you to everyone looking for a
special, energetic and classy act and I’m sure we will book you
again for future events.”
