<span class="messageBody">Tish
and I would like to thank you for the amazing performance you put on
for our wedding last week. The day was truly a dream come true for us -
from the weather, to the music, to the ceremony, to the guests -
everything was perfect and you contributed tremendously. It's funny, in
spite of all we had to think about that day to make sure everything
went off without a hitch, I made it a point to listen to you play and it
was really moving. The two special request compositions you did for us
were spot-on and we scored some cool points from the guests that were
familiar with them. All of the guests who made it to the ceremony made
it a point to ask about you. <br /> <br /> Thank you again and we will spread the word about you every chance we get. <br /> <br /> Sincerely,<br /> <br /> Rod and Tish</span></h6>Helvetica String Triohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07279271121158627589noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1705036614166947257.post-10246427754907604082012-05-17T08:34:00.002-07:002012-05-17T08:34:16.200-07:00<h6 class="uiStreamMessage" data-ft="{"type":1,"tn":"K"}">
