Superb! Ceremony music
We had Sarah to play before our ceremony and during and she was absolutely amazing, so many of our guests asked for her details for events they have.
Sarah sang during our register signing and we also wanted our guests to sing in our ceremony and Sarah for them all to join in with a great rendition of I can’t take my eyes of you.
Can’t recommend enough.

Manor Farm Wedding - AMAZING
Great singer, check. Great songs, check. Inclusive, interactive, fun and entertaining, check check check!
Sarah sang at our wedding last week and we were blown away and so grateful for her. She sang for our ceremony and then did an amazing 2 hour set in the afternoon for our guests, bringing life to the afternoon!
Sarah is such a talented singer and performer, and on top of that includes the audience with interactive challenges and quiz questions. We loved every moment and are so so grateful we chose you!
And if you think it cant get any better, it can, Sarah is a lovely person who will work with you to select your song choices to suit your vibe. We’ve made another friend in Sarah and we hope to see her soon.

Professional, Sensational Singer
We saw Sarah at Falcon Manor at a wedding Fair and she played our song to dance to and after chatting realised we lived nearby and knew mutual friends. She was playing a gig in BAILDON not long after, which went down a storm, and even though my wedding entertainment was planned I really wanted her to be part of it. She played early before the ceilegh whilst everyone was eating. She is very good at reading the room, working out what’s needed and a very good people person. She sounds wonderful and can sing anything really well. All our guests commented how great she was- it was a crazy hot day but her professionalism meant she got everyone up dancing -which was a tough call! If you are considering Sarah I really don’t think you could be disappointed-she is fabulous! I will definitely be booking her again for future events.

Amazing performer and such a lovely lady
Sarah is one of the nicest people I’ve met. She is so friendly and welcoming.
Her voice is amazing and she can adapt to any genre of songs. Our guests loved her and asked for songs she hasn’t done before and she smashed it!
Thank you for making our day so special .
