That was fabulous. Thanks so much for your wonderful performance and attention to Bill. He really enjoyed the songs and is effusing about it (in his own modest way), as all the rest of us are too( more effusively).
Safe travels home and thanks again.

Hi Sara,
Thank you ever so much to both you and Stephen for an absolute dream come true performance for both Nessun Dorma and Nella Fantasia. I really appreciate the time and effort you put in to making the live version happen, and the performances were out of this world.
If there is anywhere I can leave a review please let me know. I have also attached a couple of videos, feel free to use them anywhere.
I’m so sorry we didn’t get to catch you in person but you were truly stars of the show.
Thanks again and wishing you all the best.

Dear Sara,
On behalf of my husband and I, we wanted to personally thankyou for your incredibly beautiful and moving performance which moved both of us and many of our guests too tears on our wedding day! 
️
Your voice is something from the heavens and our only regret was that we could not listen to you sing for longer!
I had so much positive feedback about you from my guests, and whether you do concerts and shows, etc. Your performance was one of the highlights of my wedding that I will never forget.
It was an absolute dream to have you! Thankyou for making our day so incredibly special.
Best wishes,
Karen & Sabatino Xx 
Susannah (Solo Opera Singer – Wedding Dinner, Cliveden House, Taplow, Maidenhead, Berkshire)
Apologies for my delay in writing to you but I wanted to say a huge thank you for helping to create such a fabulous day on Friday at Cliveden for Karen and for making all her dreams come true.
It was fabulous working with you and I hope very much to be able to do so again in the future!
I had a lovely message from Karen afterwards – I share an edited version below showing how grateful she is to you.
Where do I even begin?? Yes, absolutely we are still on cloud 9 and I can’t believe we are officially married!!!
The entire day from start to finish was more incredible than I ever dreamed and each major element was executed perfectly and was exactly what I envisioned.
So many emotions and memories to be held for a lifetime.
The wedding was an absolute smashing success!
I just want to say that me and Sabatino cannot thank you enough for helping to make our wedding day everything we ever dreamed of in our life.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart for coming together and for creating something absolutely magical for Karen and Sabatino last week.
It has been a pleasure!
With best wishes,
Susannah

John (Singing Waiters – four performers, Birthday & Anniversary Party, Maidstone, Kent)
Dear Sara,
We are so thrilled that you were able to sing for us on Saturday. All our guests, without exception, were completely floored by the performance you and your fellow singers gave us. ‘Memorable’ is an often repeated word.
Your voices complemented each other perfectly, and the choice of music and presentation was superb. Thank you all so much. You made our special event very special indeed.
I am attaching a photo that you might like.
Kind regards,

Juliette (Barbershop Quartet, Private Christmas Party, Kensington London)
Dear Tom,
A heartfelt thank you to you all for the most wonderful performance at Bayard’s home on Saturday. Messages have been flooding in from appreciative friends, saying how much they loved the event you created, the festive spirit of your singing and the memorable atmosphere you created. Bayard has quite run out of adjectives, as have I, in describing how lovely it was!!
You really raised the roof in some of the strongly swelling numbers, and lulled us with tender mood in others; it was a beautiful mix. I hope you felt how much everyone appreciated your singing, and also enjoyed chatting to them beforehand.
I trust you and your family enjoy a wonderful Christmas, especially after having done so much to engender festive joy for others.
My thanks once again for a wonderful, wonderful performance, and all the preparation that made it so. It was brilliant!
All the best,
Juliette
Adam (Singing Waiters Duo, Corporate Christmas Party, Cambridge)

Once again, thank you SO much for being part of our Philanthropy dinner. It was a wonderful evening, and your beautiful singing was a fabulous addition to the overall enjoyment of the event.

Connie (Opera Singing Waiters four performers, Birthday Dinner Party, Guernsey)
Hi Sara
I just wanted to say a big thank you to you all for helping Charlie’s birthday go with a swing!
He loved it all and so did everyone else! What a co-incidence that Digby was in the audience having sponsored your two colleagues some years ago? The world is certainly a small place sometimes.
I wouldn’t be surprised if you might be asked to come to Guernsey again in the future.
Kind regards
Connie
Joan (Opera Singing Waiters Duo, Private Dinner Party, London)
Dear Sara

We were absolutely delighted by the whole performance of you, Catherine and Russell at Anne’s party. Your unexpected entry caught everyone by surprise and the singing was amazing. We have had so many comments from our guests saying how much they enjoyed the performance (as did Anne and ! !). It really was the highlight of the evening.
If you would like us to leave a suitable glowing comment for inclusion on your web site, please let us know how to go about it.
Once again, very many thanks

Marvis (Surprise Singing Waiters Duo Act, 90th Birthday Dinner – Hintlesham Hall Golf Club)
Dear Sara
Just wanted to say a huge thank you to you and your singing partner for providing the entertainment for my 90th birthday party.
None of my guests knew you were going to perform so it was a very pleasant surprise for them when you started to sing. All my family and all friends agreed you were a great success and they really enjoyed the variety of music that you performed for their entertainment.
I am so grateful to you both for making my party so entertaining and memorable.
So many thanks once again
Very kind regards
Mavis
Freya (Opera Soprano & Pianist, Birthday Party – Stratton Street, London)
Hi Sara,
I just wanted to thank you and Scilla for giving us the most amazing performance on Saturday evening. My Dad was completely thrilled with it and all of the guests were blown away.
I hadn’t expected the audience interaction during ‘I Could Have Danced All Night’ – what a great touch. You picked two of my favourite cousins – they both loved having a twirl – and we all thought that was very amusing!
It was all completely brilliant. My Mum was a pretty good Mezzo Soprano in her youth and she was extremely impressed with how well you sang in a living room which perhaps doesn’t offer the ideal acoustics. You were brilliant, as was Scilla.
It was also extra special for us that Scilla was able to play so beautifully on my late grandmother’s piano.
I have had so many messages from all my family and my Dad’s friends and they all make particular mention of the performance. It was a real treat for us all.
Thank you both so much!
Best,
Freya
Amy (Wedding Choir, Church Ceremony – Sawston, Cambridgeshire)
Dear Tom,
Just a note to say thank you for everything on Saturday. The choir sang beautifully and really made the occasion perfect. We have had so many positive comments and videos from our friends and family.
As soon as I heard ‘Fields of Gold’ as the doors opened I felt relaxed. It was beautiful.
Thank you so much. Wishing you a merry Christmas and a happy new year.
Amy & Tom
Nicky (Opera Singing Waiter – 21st Birthday Dinner, Newick)
Dear Sara,
I would like to say a very big and heartfelt thank you for your performance last night – it made the party! Everyone was talking about it last night and again today, saying what an incredible voice you have and how fantastic your performance was. My son loved it and it was the best surprise for him.
I hope you enjoyed performing too, and sorry about the long wait you had ‘being a waiter’ until your performance.
Kind regards
Nicky
Roger (Surprise Opera Singers, soprano, tenor, 70th Birthday Party – Islington, London)
Dear Sara,
Wow! What performances from you and Russell. I was really delighted and thrilled at the quality and fun in all your singing. It made a huge contribution to the party, which, I’m sure you could tell, was a great success. Thank you both so much, not just for the actual event, but also for your help, flexibility and advice during the planning. Well done.
Best wishes

I wanted to say the biggest biggest biggest thank you for singing at our wedding last weekend. It was truly AMAZING and everyone sang so beautifully. It was complete magic in that church! From the Rutter, to the hymns and a cappella numbers, it was totally amazing and one of the highlights of the day.
Thank you so much again, and please pass on to the rest of the choir. If I can recommend you anywhere, please do let me know I would be happy to write one up.
Thanks again,

With the dust beginning to settle I wanted to thank you and the team for helping to make our Renaissance Banquet the success it turned out to be.
Launching into Nessun Dorma from the Mezzanine certainly created the atmosphere we intended and the sheer professionalism of the act certainly enhanced the evening.
Many thanks to all.
Best wishes
Gwyn
Fiona (Tenor & Soprano Surprise Performance – Garden Party, Dormansland, Surrey)
I was absolutely surprised and delighted by you singing at my afternoon tea party. It was brilliant and all the ladies loved it. I knew John was up so something but not this so that why it was even more of a surprise. I loved the choice of songs. It was certainly a very memorable afternoon, I loved it.
Best wishes
Fiona
Helaina (Barbershop Quartet – Birthday Surprise – Maidstone, Kent)
Oh Tom that was absolutely brilliant. Honestly can’t thank you enough. You had us all in tears and it was so wonderful to see Mum laughing like that.
Please thank the other guys from us. Really really appreciate you all going to so much effort and helping to make today so special.
So funny and just brilliantly executed.
Can’t express our gratitude enough. It really made her day. Thank you so much. It was better than anything I could have imagined and was absolutely flawless.
Very very talented chaps!!!
Best Wishes
Helaina
Sean (Flash Mob with six singers – Wedding Breakfast – Coombe Abbey, Coventry)
Well, Oh My Word,
Words can not express the gratitude, amazement and pure excitement I have in congratulating and thanking you and your team.
It literally could not have run so smoothly and to the letter of how I imagined it would.
The whole team were out of this world, and the vocals exquisite!
The feedback I received from Terry (DJ) and Owain (Toast Master) on how professional and organised you all were helped ensure the surprise was kept quiet. Which you know was my main concern!
The whole room after you all left was in a state of stunned silence and sheer amazement! Some of our male friends our the most hardened men who they will admit themselves do not have a “soppy” bone in their body, who admitted to me that they even got a tear in their eye.
Craig absolutely was stunned and over the moon that I had arranged it, as he always wanted to see or be at an event that had that type of performance made.
All through the breakfast and following evening meal people could not stop talking about the performance and how superb it was.
Truly magical spectacular performers and performance. Thank you so much, and I was so chuffed to see yourself, and Russell were amongst the performers. However everyone warranted a personal standing ovation.
Comments I received from guests like:
“I was gob smacked”
“emotionally stunned”
“So engrossed I forgot where I was”
“Electric”
Thank You is not enough to show how amazing it was, I’m speechless and so grateful. Thank you Sara.
Thanks
Sean
Christina (Singing Waiters Trio – Wedding Dinner Party – Rickmansworth, Hertfordshire)
Dear Sara,
We all want to say that your performance was simply fantastic & outshone any expectations I personally had. Learning & performing those extra requests was so very appreciated
Hopefully you might add them to your repertoire as you preformed so well. Thank you so so much. I’m sure you hear it all the time but you truly made the wedding even more memorable & will be talked about for many years to come. Again a truly heartfelt Thank you
Christina
Chris (Singing Waiters Duo – Wedding Dinner – Lodge Farm, York)
Nigel (Singing Waiters Duo – Wedding Dinner Party – Upperthong)
Morning Sara,
It’s been a week since Hannah & Fred’s wedding now and I just wanted to drop you a note to say that the performance by you and Russell absolutely stole the show. Weddings are emotional anytime but you just took it to another level and everyone had the most wonderful time. So really a big thank you from Debbie and I. You were both brilliant and made our day extra special – we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend you to anyone.
Good Luck and Thank You
Kind Regards
Nigel & Debbie

Hi Russell,
I just wanted to drop you a note to say a massive thank you for your performance at our wedding!! We absolutely loved it and it went down better than I had ever imagined it would! Your charisma and energy was brilliant and I was so pleased that I had booked you! Such a unique thing for a wedding I felt and the fact that we successfully managed to keep is a secret from Sarah the entire time, made it even better!
I wish you all the best for the future.
Best regards
Tommy

Just to say thank you for helping to arrange for Russell and his organist to play and sing at David’s funeral service yesterday.
Russell sang beautifully , and the organist was spot on, we could not have wished for a better result or more fitting way to say good bye to David especially in the current circumstances.
With many thanks for your help,
Yours Sincerely

Of course, the Christmas cheer wouldn’t truly be felt without carollers gathered to sing round the tree. A collective of six talented carol singers delivered several sessions, which covered classics like “Holy Night” and “Come All Ye Faithful”, among others. As in the previous year, the carol singers came from Hartley Voices, a group of London based opera, musical theatre and choral singers.
