Мы хотели бы вас поблагодарить за прекрасный праздник который вы нам организовали на нашей свадьбе 31го Августа 2008. Мы очень долго искали подходящих музыкантов для нашего торжества но никто не подошёл с таким знанием дела как вы. Вы сделали всё как обещали: приехали посмотрели на место, проработали сценарий вечера, вовремя приехали в день свадьбы, свадьба велась на русском и на английском языках, оборудование отлично работало и вся ваша команда: DJ Барнаул, скрипач Александр Цейтлин, певец и руководитель ансамбля Александр Меньшиков и MC Михаил Смирнов) работали на все 100%. Мы хотели душевного праздника с элементами русских свадебных традиций и вы превзошли наши ожидания. Ваши народные костюмы, обряд с караваем, песня "Чарочка", русские народные песни, костюмированные представления "Цыганки" и "Медведя" и романсы сделали вечер просто незабываемым.

Отдельное спасибо скрипачу Александру. Он очень талантливый человек. Он способен играть любые произведения и одновременно устроить шоу где он будет продолжать играть пока скрипка находится за его спиной. Многие из наших гостей были в восторге от его игры на скрипке на церемонии и приятно удивлены когда он сел за пианино.

Михаил, вы прекрасный ведущий. Вам удалось привлечь внимание всех наших гостей и все с удовольствием принимали участие во всех ваших идеях. Вы буквально приняли нашу идею свадьбы и всё сделали как мы хотели. Подбор слов и музыки был всегда уместен.

Спасибо Александру Меньшикову. Прекрасный певец. Он способен исполнять песни в любом жанре и на любом языке.

Мы очень рады что выбрали Вас быть частью нашего праздника. Ваши низкие цены никак не идут в сравнение с уровнем вашего профессионализма.

Спасибо вам огромное,

Катерина и Владимир
