March 13, 2026Surprised my brother from France!
(English version below)
Mon frère habite à New York et je voulais lui envoyer une surprise depuis la France pour ses 21 ans. Je recommande vraiment d'écrire à Anna avec ce que vous avez en tête et elle saura vous aider ! Je savais pas à quoi m'attendre au début car les costumes en photos étaient plus de type cabaret et j'avais peur que ce soit pas adapté pour ma situation, mais comme j'ai dit, Anna était très flexible et à l'écoute donc c'était parfait!
La surprise a pu être organisée jusqu'aux changements de plans de dernière minute grâce à une amie de mon frère avec qui il allait au restaurant ce jour-là et que j'avais mis en contact avec Anna!
Le résultat: une version personnalisée de la chanson New York New York avec plein d'anecdotes et en costumes retro. A la fin elle lui a même donné une lettre que j'avais écrite par message ! Et tout le restaurant s'est mis à chanter Joyeux anniversaire 🥹
Merci beaucoup ! 🫶
We are french and my brother is living in NYC, so I sent him a customized singing telegram !!
It was the best way to surprise him !! He had absolutely no idea and was so surprised by all the anecdotes that were in the song !
Anna was very reactive and flexible, she sent pictures of the costumes and explained how everything would work. I changed the time of the event very last minute and she was still able to rock that birthday song! Everybody in the restaurant then sang happy birthday and she gave my brother a letter that we had wrote for him. It was a very sweet moment he'll remember forever, thanks again🫶
