We are so glad that we have got Black Cherry Swing to perform during our wedding breakfast. The performance was awesome. The music and the vocal set the perfect ambience for the banquet. We have received many compliments of the band performance from our guests who flew all the way to the UK from Hong Kong. They enjoyed it so much that many of them even started dancing during the banquet! We were also very impressed by Janine’s performance, powerful yet soulful. We are so glad to also have her performing the opening song for our first dance. Our wedding night would not be as memorable without Black Cherry Swing’s amazing performance!
