Many thanks for your assistance in arranging the entertainment for our client's events in Auckland and Wellington last week.

Thanks again - your service was great and we'll be sure to contact you when we are organising future events in NZ!

bridal party were away on a photo shoot, and also later as the guests were
seated in the marquee. Absolutely brilliant!

Thanks so much, Sasha was just amazing, we and our guest's loved him. He
is a wonderful artist but also a lovely person to have around on such a
special day. His music was just perfect for the setting that we had
chosen, the ambiance created by the music and environment made for a
wonderful day.
Donna and Steve. 

Hi Pete,
Sasha was very satisfactory for the occasion, he not only performed well, but joined in the ceremony too, adding to the celebration of the occasion.
Many Thanks.

Hi Pete,
We enjoyed a very successful work dinner at the Zoo. Sasha was perfect for
the occasion and everyone enjoyed his background guitar music (perhaps even
the lions at The Lion Shelter!). After moving on to The Old Elephant House
for our meal, Sasha again fitted into the atmosphere perfectly, creating a
very relaxing mood, perfect throughout our meal. We would definitely
recommend Sasha.
Thanks Pete. Please feel free to add our feedback to your website.
Cheers,
Leigh, Kevin Oldham (Director) and the Environment & Planning team at
Meritec 

Yes, we thoroughly enjoyed our Flamenco Guitarist - he is incredibly talented and his music was much appreciated by all that attended. Yet another successful Christmas party.
Kind Regards,
Liz Collings (David Greer Music)
