We were guests at the Flysik-Brereton wedding over the weekend at the Warwick. I just had to write and tell you guys that you were fabulous!!!!!!!!! We really enjoyed the music and dancing. This is the first wedding that I've been to where the guests pleaded with the band for "one more song!". I was sure to get some of your cards before I left. I will definitely recommend this band to anyone looking for one.

Dear James,
Just wanted to thank you for making our wedding so much fun! We received so many compliments about you and the band and the wonderful job you did. If you ever need a reference, please feel free to have anyone call us! Thanks, Chris & John

Dear JGO,
I want to thank you for making our wedding reception the party of a lifetime. I couldn't believe how many of our guests got out on the dance floor. So many people commented on how great the band was, and said it was the best wedding they'd ever been to! You were a hit! Even my Dad - who initially wanted me to go with a lower-cost option (e.g. DJ), remarked by the end of the night that you were "worth every penny!"

Thank you for playing requests like "To be Real" and "This is How we do it" - they were awesome! Also I must commend the vocalists for their patience with "guest singers" such as me and my maid of honor on "Getin' Jiggy Wit it" - we had a blast! Also, you did a beautiful job with our first dance, "From This Moment On". Thanks again! Sincerely, Lori *******

JGO,
We cannot thank you enough for your incredible performance at our June 12th wedding reception. Our guests and ourselves had so much fun. In fact, we barely said goodbye to anyone on that night because we were so busy dancing! Your selection of songs, your enthusiasm, and your talent appealed to all ages! We hope your band stays together and you have much success for a long time! Thanks again and again! Jim and Denise ****. P.S. Thanks for giving us an encore that night

Dear James:
Just wanted to say how pleased we were with your performance. The constantly full dance floor and the many favorable comments from guests are two certain indicators of a successful event.

Thanks to you and your very talented musicians for making our son's and daughter-in-law's wedding a memorable occasion. Very truly yours, Kenneth A. ********

Dear Jim,
I wanted to express my gratitude once again to the James Gerard Orchestra for the outstanding entertainment you provided at my wedding.

I can't keep track of how many people told me that you were the best band they had ever heard at a wedding and how much they loved your music. It was wonderful to watch all of our guests dancing up a storm and enjoying themselves so much!

We had such a beautiful wedding day from start to finish. The James Gerard Orchestra was an integral part in making our wedding so special and memorable!

After meeting with several bands, we were most impressed by your professionalism, helpfulness, easy-going nature and the quality of music you provide. We look forward to having an opportunity to hire you again someday!

I would be happy to speak personally with anyone who wishes for a reference at 610-***-****. Thank you once again! Sincerely, Christina *********, M.D.

Dear James:
It has been a long time since we can remember seeing so many people on a dance floor at one time - and for an entire evening. You music was so wonderful, many of us didn't want to take the time to eat. Dancing was the first thing on our minds.

We can't begin to thank you enough for the wonderful music you brought to our daughter's wedding on Friday evening, May 28, 1999. Guests are still calling us to ask where we ever found such a fabulous orchestra. You made an already perfect evening the best we can remember. We had nothing to think about because of how beautifully you coordinated everything with the people at the Blue Bell Country Club.

If ever you need a recommendation, please do not hesitate to call us. We would be thrilled to let everyone know how pleased we were with the music selections and performance. Sincerely, John and Linda *****

Dear James,
When we looked for a band to perform at Denise and Jim's wedding (June 12, 1999), we struck gold. You were truly professional, congenial, happy with/and proud to be a part of your orchestra. Our excitement in viewing the video and watching the group perform grew into the pride that you exhibited, you were infectious. We would tell our family and friends over and over again, "Just wait till you see this band"!

Our day came and you all lived up to our expectations, you were incredible! You provided and performed from a list of many songs, even learning and performing one of Ray's favorites by Cherry Poppin Daddies, which was a big hit. I was the lady in the peach gown, one of our many guests who never left the dance floor. We sang with you and you danced with us. You all seem to be friends, enjoying yourselves and we shared that camaraderie. Ray and our guests appreciated the encore.

Please use us as a recommendation. We hope to work with you again when our son gets married, and plan to relive our boogie time together through the video. Thank you for a great, great time! Sincerely, Rosemary and Ray G*******, Parents of the Bride

Dear Jim:

Wow! I knew you all were going to be good, but I had no idea as to how good!! You exceeded all expectations. From the very first song, you helped set the pace for the evening. I've gotten compliment after compliment not only about your music, but about your style, as well. The manager at the Berkshire Country Club, John Hendrix, even asked for your orchestra's name for future events.

So thank you, thank you, and thank you for making our wedding celebration an extraordinary memory, Hugh, myself and everyone who was there had a ball. Good luck to you. Sincerely, Carolyn C. ***********
