Aj & E. Married on 05/14/2022Funktastic = fantastic
We had the most amazing experience with Mike, Alysha and the entire team. We'd recommend them 10/10 times - they were the talk of the evening and truly made our wedding exactly what we envisioned- a massive party/celebration! And to top it off, they were so easy to work with, responsive and ultimately just really fun. Thanks for the best night ever !Funktastic Productions's reply:
