"Charlie was incredible, both in the run up to the wedding (which ended up being over a number of years due to postponements!) and on the day. We were all blown away by his playing. Our guests couldn't stop talking about him, we had so many wonderful comments. Book Charlie, you won't regret it! ​ "
