Wedding C, 11 years ago

Thank you for singing so brilliantly at our wedding. All the guests can't stop commenting on how fantastic your voice is and how you really made the evening. Thanks also for DJing, you immediately knew the right songs to play and didn't talk like a lot of DJ's do. We really did have a perfect day." (Lorraine & Paul Currie)

Mickey was fantastic. Professional, timely, courteous, flexible, and of course very talented. A great night was had by all. Would highly recommend Mickey
