"Wow! Where do we even begin? It honestly doesn’t feel like there are enough words to say just how incredible you were. From the very first time we heard you sing and play, we had absolute chills. Then, as soon as we heard your beautiful version of Sunshine, we knew there was no one else we wanted to walk down the aisle to. Hearing you sing and play as we walked towards each other was such a magical and unforgettable moment, and one we will treasure forever. You took our day from amazing to truly magical with your incredible talent. So many of our guests commented on how wonderful your voice is, but it wasn’t just your voice and music that made you so special. You are genuinely one of the sweetest people, and you radiate so much warmth, kindness and passion for what you do. From the moment we met you, you were so warm, friendly and welcoming. Nothing was ever too much trouble, and you went above and beyond to make our day so special. We honestly couldn’t have wished for anyone better to be part of such an important day in our lives. And the interactive singalong during dinner, which somehow turned into a full-on dance session, was one of the most memorable parts of the whole day! It was such a brilliant and unique way to bring everyone together. Amazing music, incredible singing, lots of laughter, dancing and the chance to connect with all of our guests in such a fun and special way. Those are the moments and memories that will stay with us for a lifetime. From the very bottom of our hearts, thank you. Thank you for your talent, your kindness, your warmth and for helping make our wedding day everything we dreamed it would be and more. We feel so lucky to have had you be part of our special day, and we will always remember you with the biggest smiles and so much love. Lots and lots of love, Mrs & Mrs Greenwood ❤️ Xxxxx"

Can professional singers sing any song?
Whether a singer can sing a song depends mostly on their vocal range, vocal style, and musical knowledge. Vocal range is the span of notes that a singer can comfortably sing. Professional singers typically have a wider vocal range than amateur singers, which allows them to sing a wider variety of songs. However, even professional singers may have limitations in their vocal range. For example, a soprano may not be able to sing the low notes of a baritone, and vice versa. Vocal style refers to the unique way that a singer uses their voice. Professional singers often have developed their own vocal styles that are appropriate for the genres they perform in. For example, a classical singer may have a more operatic style, while a pop singer may have a more raspy or soulful style. Musical knowledge refers to a singer's understanding of music theory, harmony, and melody. Typically, professional singers are very knowledgeable about music, which allows them to learn new songs quickly and accurately. Additionally, they have a good sense of pitch and rhythm, which helps them sing in tune. In general, professional singers are able to sing a wide variety of songs, but there may be some songs that are beyond their vocal range or style. However, you should always discuss any song requests you have with your chosen singer beforehand to make sure it's something they feel they can perform well.
Do singers bring their own equipment?
It's extremely common for singers to own backing track system set ups, as well as fully contained performance equipment to bring to their performances at events. If the singer uses backing tracks, you can be confident that they'll also own amplification to bring along with them. In addition to this, many singers will also be able to provide lighting set ups too - though always best to check first in both instances if this is what you're after.
I want my singer to play an instrument as well. Is this possible?
Yes! Many singers will play an instrument to accompany themselves, like a guitar or piano (or even the accordion!). They'll most likely mention this on their profile, as well as links to videos showcasing their skills.
