Aprylle and Reed,
Thank you so much for providing our ceremony and cocktail hour music. As I expected, your music and performance was wonderful. You made the planning process very smooth and I loved the sampler CD. It gave me a great insight into the professionalism and quality of your music. Thank you!!!
I apologize for it being so windy and I hope you were happy with the set up that ended up working. All of our guests were very complimentary of your music.
Please feel free to provide our information to any references you may need in the future.
Thank you again,

Hi Reed,

Aprylle and Reed,
I just wanted to thank both of you so much for performing at my little brothers wedding on Wednesday at the Castle. You two were wonderful. You played "Give You A Rose" ( A Token of Love) just absolutely beautifully! That song means so much to us Plant kids, for it was written by our sister, Marjy Plant, who wrote it for our mother years ago. She sent my mom a rose and the words in a frame the day she wrote it for her, It meant so much as Steve and Andrea were getting married to hear that, and then touring the Castle and you guys played it again. That just meant so much to me! I know my mom was there in spirit and she shared her love with all her kids. Thanks so much again. You are very special in my book!

To the most beautiful sounding musicians ever.....
Audrey's note to you could not have expressed my feelings more clearly. I absolutely cried tears of joy, happiness and love when you played Marji's song about the Rose. It is not only a touching and meaningful song, but absolutely beautiful too. You both could not have played it anymore touching then you did. It sounded awesome--and I have heard this song so many times.
.....thank you from the bottom of my heart,
Love in Christ,

Dear Aprylle and Reed,
Almost three months later, and people are still talking about your lovely contribution of music to our wedding, as they should be!
Gary and I were delighted with the selections you chose to play for us! Apart from being masterfully executed, your music lifted our special day to that wonderfully beautiful, classy and elegant place every bride and groom hope their wedding and reception will reflect.
We couldn't have been happier with your music, and continue to tell everyone 'who' you are, that they may make the same choice we did for our ceremony and reception!
Many Thanks and Love,

Thank you so much for the beautiful music at Christina and Colin's wedding. You put the 'elegant' into a perfect day that many people describe as 'simple, yet elegant.'

Dear Aprylle & Reed,
Many thanks for making our wedding the beautiful occasion it was--music filling the air. It was everything I had hoped for and more. The "Wedding Song" with Chris is a treasure forever--thank you for the time with him to rehearse and get ready. And "The Water Is Wide", my favorie piece of all, gently announcing the ceremony. Perfect! It was just perfect. I hope we meet again; I will refer you to everyone I know, and play your music over and over. All the best to you in your music life and life together!

Dear Aprylle and Reed,
I just wanted to thank you for the lovely classical music you played at our wedding. Torey and I both enjoy classical music, and for me it is a love that goes all the way back to childhood. The delicacy and precision with which you played made it clear that you are true music lovers as well. Your respect and love for the material comes through in every note.
Our wedding would not have been the same without your wonderful performance. Your music was never merely background music; it was a part of each event in the ceremony.
I played music as a hobby for many years, and also met a lot of musicians...some of them very famous. You are the first I've ever encountered who have such a profound understanding of nuance.
Finally, thanks also for being such gracious guests,...and for helping to make our wedding a memorable event. We will always cherish what you brought to our special day!

(Note: We drove over 230 miles round trip through a 22" snow storm for this wedding--our second of the day.)
Dear Aprylle and Reed,
(I) don't even know where to begin to thank all the people who helped make Court and Mike's snowy wedding day so special. Not one person let us down... I was so moved to walk into the YHI and find you both there...I heard from many people how much they enjoyed your music.
Thank you so much..hope you had an uneventful trip home, I was very worried about the people on the road. Fortunately, most of our guests stayed at YHI or somewhere else close.
With very warm regards,

Dear Aprylle and Reed,
With gratitude that Ted returned home safely from Afghanistan and with memories of months of excited planning, we are now able to relax and recall details of the special day. We have been anxious to send you a letter of appreciation for setting a magnificent musical ambiance for Kim and Ted's wedding ceremony at the First Christian Church in Wolfeboro on June 28th and, after, at the garden gazebo overlooking Lake Winnipesaukee. With each selection played, your professional artistry and sophisticated presence enhanced the beauty and emotion of the occasion. Your splendid music was commented upon and enjoyed by all who were present. These are times when the sun shines, and everything seems just right. Thank you for your significant role in this regards.
You were so cooperative, interesting and wonderful to work with, and we appreciated your care in ensuring the occasion was all we had anticipated. We were so pleased that you were part of the day that your names were included in the wedding program. In the future, we will be most happy to be added to the long list of those who would like to endorse recommendations on your behalf.

Dear Aprylle and Reed,
Just a note as David and I are sitting here listening to our newest CD - complements of you - and going through it the many lovely "Bits and Pieces" of our sons wedding weekend. We want to tell you again how much we all enjoyed your music making! It was exactly the right addition to the evening and many people complimented us on choosing such elegant "restful" entertainment. We are so happy to have "found" you and made a connection. Thank you again for your lovely contribution to our memories!

Dear Aprylle and Reed,
Jim and I both wanted to thank you from the bottom of our hearts for playing at our wedding. The music was just lovely and added an elegant and magical dimension to the day that would not otherwise have been there. We could go on and on and on about Simple Gifts, but I believe you both know how much your playing it meant to us. Absolutely everyone at the wedding commented on how much they loved the music and how wonderful the day was. I truly believe it was your music that made the day. Certainly it would not have been as special without you.

Both Rick and I want to thank you for the beautiful music you filled our wedding with. It really was lovely. It was such a beautiful day, perfect setting and the music seemed to bring everything together. When you left at the end of the evening, there was such a void. Thank you for your suggestions and your flexibility. It was all greatly appreciated!
Thank you,
