"We couldn’t be happier that we chose Maria for our wedding reception. Maria brought a magic, glamour, and old Hollywood style charm to our big day that is hard to put into words. Not only is she a hugely talented singer and saxophonist, but she also has an amazing stage presence - she added so much to our special day. From our first telephone call with her it was clear that she really cared about our vision for our big day, and her performance was beyond our wildest expectations. It was so wonderful to see our guests out on the floor enjoying Maria's performance, and two months later they are still commenting about how fabulous she was, and how much she added to their enjoyment of our day. Thank you Mara from the bottom of our hearts. Dee & Shea ❤️ xoxo"
