Thank you Kaci for leaving this review on Wedding Wire. I enjoyed playing your wedding at the beautiful church in Weatherford. Everything about your wedding (your dress, flowers, the lovely decorated church etc.,) was just so beautiful. I appreciate your leaving this review more than I can express in words.

First Class!
Laura was a blessing to work with. She truly cared about my ceremony and spent a lot of time with me going over music ideas and she even helped me find a wedding coordinator. I cannot thank her enough for her flexibility, positivity and attention to detail! She’s the best!
