I just wanted to thank you so much for Friday.... everybody complimented on what a talented violinist you are. You made your presence in such an understated way and played every song absolutely perfectly. You really helped make such a perfect day even better. I cannot thank you enough!
A huge thank you for saturday - you were incredible and your music was exceptional and really set the tone for our special day. So many of our guests commented on how wonderful you were. We hope that we might be able to see you perform again in the future!
We both wanted to say thank you so so much for last Saturday. You were absolutely incredible and really made the service and reception that extra bit special. My walk in song was also incredible and Sam loved the surprise. You totally captivated everyone. We both had so many compliments from guests and we are really glad we had you play.
Jessie, thank you so very much from the bottom of my heart for playing so beautifully at our wedding, honestly it was such a highlight and we loved it. So many people commented on the music - so beautiful.
