Sharon & Luc, Glen Foerd on the Delaware, Philadelphia

Everyone, from the 3 year olds to the 70 year olds, were on the dance floor all the time. The diversity of music and the quality of delivery whether it was guitars, drums, horns and the singing (OMG) was something else. We had many people ask where did we find these guys!!?? as well as many who said “this is not just the best wedding but the best party I ever attended!“. You guys rock and made our day! Sharon & Luc

One of my most vivid memories of the day was looking out on the dance floor to watch the mass of people getting down. It made me so happy to see all these people I loved having such an amazing time.
