Wonderful surprise

It was a surprise for my mom who really enjoyed it! It was such a vibe and it matched her tea party theme- with a setlist curated just for her. She enjoyed the covers- most notably Over the Rainbow, Can’t Help Falling in Love and Put Your Head on My Shoulders

September 22nd Jubilee

Sofia was absolutely great! She fit the scene perfectly at our wedding expo and was very flexible with set-up. We had her stationed under a tree next to one of our photo-ops at the event and she was the cherry on top. I would definitely book her again!
