Subject: Belated Thank You

To everyone at SMD

We are back from honeymoon and settling into London life.

I just wanted to say a huge thank you to everyone at SMD for your slick and professional service and the amazing vibe you created on our wedding night!

Martin you, Brendan and Gee were such a pleasure to deal with and played a big part in making our wedding dream a reality.

The lighting was unbelievable and the music was exactly what we wanted!

I have attached some pics so you can see how fantastic the lights were for our photographs! Dirk says he has never has such brilliant lighting at a function and he even carried on going, at no charge, as he was so inspired!

Martin, please can you send me Brendan’s email. He said he would give me a CD with all the music on it, which I would love! I also would like to give this to our videographer so she can use some of the music on the DVD, especially the first dance.

I ended up saying my impromptu bit and introducing the first dance and it was so special – thanks for encouraging me!

Also I gave your details to close friends of mine Tal Saban and Russel Smith who are getting married next year, they should contact you at some point.

Thanks again
Sarin

Hi , Steve and SMD team

I have no words to express how grateful I am for the amazing work you all did to ensure the success of this year Nederburg Wine Auction. It was both an honor and a privilege to work with each and every one of you and the attention to detail and service of delivery was impeccable. I have always said that an Event is only as good as its suppliers and once again this statement of mine is TRUE.

Please pass on my thanks to the rest of your crew / teams and I look forward to many more successful events in the future. I know how busy everyone is but if you do have some time and are able to write up Learning’s and Recommendations it will be much appreciated.

Again thanks a mil, you guys have made me proud and I have been blessed to work with such a talented group of people

Good Luck to you all for the rest of the year, hope all goes well

All our Love

Hi Martin

Thank you for the email.

It was a great pleasure to work with you on the gig last week.

The event was an enormous success and we have had excellent feedback from the client so a big thank you for the important part that you played in that.

They did have a great time and you played exactly the right stuff. As I am sure you were aware, they really did not want to stop dancing and though some of that may be attributable to alcohol, most of it is down to the music you played.

Thanks again and I look forward to working with you again in the future.

Kind regards

Pete

Hi Martin

I'm back!
Yes - I absolutely LOVED the wedding and everything about it.

Thank you so much for all your advice and everything that you did to make it so special. Everyone had such a ball, and you played a BIG role in making that happen. I'm so sorry I never got a chance to chat to you. I was on my way to you a few times, but each time I got ambushed by another guest. Such is the life of the bride!
