8. TESTIMONIAL
Dan,
'My husband and I wanted to thank
you for singing at our wedding on the
20th April 2012. We had found that
many weddings we went to had female
singers, and while they were nice we
knew we wanted something a bit
different for our day. So when it
came time to looking for church
musicians we found it so refreshing to
find not only a tenor, but a singer of
your calibre that would be available to
sing on our special day. We are still
receiving compliments on how
memorable our ceremony was and
how truly amazing your singing
was. You were so great to work with,
and made the process of organizing
the ceremony so effortless and very
enjoyable. From your advice on song
selections to your collaboration with
us as well as with our violinist you
were truly wonderful to work
with. We can’t recommend you highly
enough!! Thanks again for making
our wedding ceremony such a special
one!'
Caitlin and Daniel Wedding,
Drinagh, West Cork
(April 2012)
