Thanks Rachael!

April 29, 2014Rachael was incredible. Communication leading up to the big day was great. She gladly accommodated a few special requests we made. She was prompt and super professional. Her music really set the mood for the laid back reception that we envisioned. We had many compliments from our guests.
