From the moment she arrived, she brought such warmth, energy and positivity that instantly added to our day. Not only is she incredibly talented but she is also so friendly , approachable and accommodating. She went above and beyond to make our celebration special, even taking the time to learn a song she hadn’t played before because it was important to us. Our dance floor was packed and guests of all ages were up dancing and enjoying themselves. Kerrie’s talent , professionalism and genuine passion for what she does shone through in every moment. I wouldn’t hesitate for a second to recommend her for any wedding party or special event. She truly helped make our day unforgettable. Thank you Kerrie for being such a special part of our celebration" Based in Dubai, United Arab Emirates 3rd July 2026 Karen Walsh - Wedding Photo of Glitter & Gold Glitter & Gold "Superb!

PH" Based in Naples, Campania, Italy Paul Hixon Photo of Smile Duo Smile Duo "TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN This is to certify that Smile Duo has been employed by the Royal Orchid Sheraton Hotel & Towers, Bangkok, Thailand, as resident band at Lobby Lounge from 1st April 2008 until 24th April trill February 2009. During that period, they fulfilled their duty to our entire satisfaction, always showing interest in the success of our operation. Furthermore, they have also shown great enthusiasm and a positive attitude towards the hotel. They were always very cooperative and supportive of all events that we organized and participated in, making those events successful. They were very flexible in the times of performances and fitted in with our business levels during the good and bad times of the political unrest during the closure of the airports that affected a downturn in business. I will honestly recommend them to any hotel and definitely wish them well and every success in their future endeavours. They were definitely a pleasure to work with. Yours sincerely, ROYAL ORCHID SHERATON HOTEL & TOWERS" Based in Kazanlak, Stara Zagora, Bulgaria 17th March 2026 Chris De Silva, Director of Food & Beverage - Sheraton Bangkok
