Dear Pete
Ralph Gannaway played at our wedding on Saturday 26 February.  He played while guests were arriving, during the signing of the register and following the ceremony until guests were seated for dinner.
Ralph's music was perfect for the day and received many compliments from guests.  He was punctual, courteous and professional.  
We would highly recommend Ralph for anyone considering using him.
