We hired Mairi for our wedding and couldn't be happier. Communication was great, and there were absolutely no issues on the day. We had so many comments from our guests on how great she sounded - and I definitely agree! What a beautiful voice! (And also the perfect volume level) Thank you so much Mairi!!! x

Mairi was a must have addition to our wedding ceremony. We had great communication with her from the get go, and she was really accommodating with learning new songs for us. She helped make our ceremony and reception drinks individual and very special for us. Lots of compliments as well from our wedding guests! Would highly recommend.
