Doug and Jasmine were so great. They gave us a such a good night and all had so much fun! We highly recommend them for any occasion as they were totally prepaid to cater for my tastes. Very understanding and very accommodating. As the other reviews say, they don't just stand there and sing, they entertain and make all of our guests feel involved. They made my party a wonderful night. Definitely will be booking them again
