Good Morning! What an absolutely wonderful magical night we had in little old York, PA. on Saturday night. I cannot tell you how many of our guests have called me or emailed me and their very first remark and I am not kidding you is “where in the world did you find that incredible band”! You guys were awesome!! The Yorktowne did a superb job hands down but it was the Renaissance Orchestra that from the moment you started to play until the end – without a break remind you – which no one could believe a band that never ever took a break, it was your Orchestra that made the party come to life and last all night long. I have been to many affairs where by 10:00/10:30 at night the “older” folks like me are out of it because the band has switched to the louder young tunes of today but you never let that happen. Everyone (all ages) wanted to dance to every song all night long. I was exhausted!! And the dance floor was absolutely never ever empty, the sign of a truly wonderful diversified group. Please express to Leon just how absolutely thrilled we were with your performance. And the last song, Auld Lang Syne, I was not sure at all how that would work out and that in the end it just might be my most favorite memory of all. Thank you for still being attentive at that hour of the night to realize we needed one extra verse to finish it off the way Becky and Brian wanted it to. What a great way to end a night of singing and dancing. I haven’t been able to talk to Becky except for a limited amount on Sun. morning. They went up to a remote cabin in Nova Scotia for their honeymoon but I know Phaedra she would just echo my remarks! Thank you for making perhaps my families best night of our lives so far so great – but you know I’ve got one coming up right behind, Trish, Becky’s youngest sister will be soon to follow. So as soon as I know 😉 – you will get a call!
Again a most sincere “thank you” to you, Leon and the entire Renaissance family for your talent, your professionalism and for making our wedding party the absolute best it could be!
