BRIDE PROCESSION SONG
I couldn't have been happier on my wedding Day with Maria's vocal performances. It was a beautiful moment that I will remember for ever. Her version of One by U2 is stunning. In the lead up to our big day, Maria was very reassuring and professional with the booking process. On the day she was supportive and professional which made me feel very at ease. The procession song, sung as I walked down the aisle with my Dad, was beautifully sang, sending goose pimples amongst all our guests. In the evening we were entertained with some fabulous belters from Maria. THANK YOU. Liz and Drew Williams Wedding October 2016

COCKTAIL PARTY
We book an acoustic set to entertain the guests. We had brilliantly varied list of songs to pick from. It was so difficult to narrow down which songs to have. They even agreed to learn new songs specially for us which meant we could make the event really personal. It created a great vibe invoke wonderful memories for us.

WEDDING RECEPTION PARTY
We booked the talented Maria for our Wedding, to entertain our evening guests after hearing her at a friends joint Birthday bash. She has such an impressive range and sings great song choices. I would 100% recommend them for a wedding or birthday celebration. Thanks again Maria.
