Event: Wedding

What a lovely to have played at our wedding on Saturday and we couldn't recommend them more. Whether singing an old classic or a more current song, Melissa's beautiful, soulful voice transforms it into something so special. They both put so much work into preparing and performing their set, the result is perfect, and they made a classy and magical addition to our day. Have your tissues at hand though, when Melissa started singing on of our special requests it moved us to tears!
