Dear Dawn,

Thank you so much for all of your special touches and fabulous wedding music for our October 16th, 2004 wedding. It was a wonderful event and experience to share with all of our friends and family.
Jared and I knew once we had met that you were destined to be our musical entertainment for our big day! Dawn, your great personality really made us feel comfortable and relaxed. William was able to serenade our guests with live guitar melodies, and not the traditional wedding selections. Your wonderful voice as you sang our “ sentimental” song during the ceremony made it truly special. We were drawn to your great  combination of live music and Deejay service, to create a wedding that was truly unique and that fit our personalities. You provided a fun atmosphere to celebrate our marriage and the chance to party the night away.

I think that the best compliment that a musician or deejay can receive is if people DANCE and have a good time, which everyone certainly did. We have the pictures and videos to prove it! The music was a nice collection that all ages could get out there and dance the night away. Music can definitely make or break an event. I never once doubted your services, since your fun and outgoing personalities keep a party going. we have been to weddings with lame music where the dance floor remains empty and people leave before the party is over.

Working with you was such a positive experience. I had complete confidence in you both and your business. Your expertise and suggestions were invaluable. Your quality and presentation exceeded every expectation. I cannot compliment you enough on the special touches and desire to make my day the best it could be.

Please feel free to use me as a reference. You have come highly recommended to every bride-to-be I know, and for other special events!

Thank you so much,

Laurel and Jared

DW Duo Hands down one of the top vendors we had!!! Dawn is full of life and energy and takes the vibe of your day and goes with it!! My husband is obsessed with music and provided a detailed play list and she was more then happy to take it and used it! We had her play the harp, it was INCREDIBLE! We gave her free reign on our reception to make sure it went great, and it did! She sang lounge songs for the first part while we were doing pictures and everyone was getting food, it resulted in this jazz/blues club scene and set the perfect mood for the whole evening. Once the dance music hit off it was a blast from then on!! I recommend her to EVERYONE!!! The bonus is that she is beyond affordable, not to rip off a naive and excited bride and groom!

Dear Dawn & William (DW Duo!)

WOW! You are amazing musicians/ DJ’s! Thank you SO MUCH for keeping everyone out on the dance floor ALL NIGHT LONG at our wedding at the Museum of the Oregon Territory on June 12th.

Alex & I could not believe it! People literally danced the entire night- the floor was packed from “pretty Woman” to “ As Time Goes By ” From the pictures, everyone looked to be having a great time, I know we did! We were so impressed and amazed. Everything was PERFECT on our day, and we thank you so much for your large part in that!

Best wishes,

Alex & Andrea

Dear Dawn,

I just wanted to thank you for helping make my brother-in-law’s wedding such a wonderful event.

It was quite a task to help my brother-in-law and his fiancee find a DJ for a wedding in Portland while we were all here in Michigan. Your timely responses and patience were such a blessing as I tried to pry necessary information out of two medical students who were studying and trying to plan a wedding.

As you were playing the harp during the cocktail hour, I heard nothing but positive comments. it added such an elegant touch to their wedding reception and was a delight to listen to.

When it came time to get the party started, you picked the right combination of songs to get everyone on their feet and dancing to celebrate with the newlyweds. You were quick to play song requests and kept the dance floor filled the entire evening.

I Know the newlyweds enjoyed their reception and you played a huge part in that.
I’m also aware of all the guests who thoroughly enjoyed themselves out on the dance floor all night long, and I’m certainly one of them.

Thank you again for such wonderful musical services.

Sincerely,

Laura




Christi & Ben  2004

 

Dawn,
You are so sweet and thoughtful. I certainly will recommend you and DW Duo to anyone that wants to experience the perfect wedding and reception with DJ and  live music.  You two were incredible and Dawn, I was so touched by your song during the unity candle (lighting and unlighting).  Ben was so sweet up there when the flame kept going out on our candles, he was so cool, he said, just hold onto my hand and we will pretend the lighter is the two candles and we will light the unity candle together. We are so happy. The dance that the two "Mama's" did was a hit with everyone.  I could not believe that was my Mom.  I have never seen her dance before, let alone act like that.  It was the funniest thing to our whole family. Thank you for everything....you were AWESOME!!!!!

Thank you,

Christi




Steve & Susan  2004 

Hi Dawn,
Hey, I may have said this in the card we sent you, but both Susan and I would like to stress that should anyone ever request any references about you guys and what an **OUTSTANDING** job y'all did, I hope we'll be at the top of the list! In viewing the wedding video it's evident that a splendid time was had by all and that's largely due to the festive ambiance of the entertainment provided by you and William.
You were utterly fantastic in presenting the bracelet to Susan and, because of the whirlwind of activities going on that night, I don't think I ever had the opportunity to properly convey my gratitude for that.

Anyway, thanks again, and should Susan and I ever throw another shindig that
requires the cheerful tone set by DW Duo, you'll be certain to hear from us
again.

Most Sincerely,
Steve

I was watching the kids video last night and it reminded me that I had never really thanked you for all your wonderful music at their wedding. Actually the video made me appreciate it all the more. One of the nicest things is my aunt and uncle dancing since neither of them are in very good health and we will always have that memory. So thanks for being your talented self.

Dawn,

 We both want to thank you again for doing such a great job at our wedding! 
Many people have told us that it was one of the best weddings that they had been to and that the music was a big part of that.  We went to a wedding in September and they had just a regular DJ and it was not the same. 

Much love,

Matt & Shauna

Dear Dawn,

 We still talk about how happy we were that we we found you for our wedding.  The harp was beautiful.  We loved  that you not only provided music and met our song requests but that you sang live during dinner! Married life is nice.  We are very busy with work and crazy dogs, but we are happy we finally did it.

Thanks,

Lisa

Dear Dawn,

The wedding was perfect and you played a large part in making the evening so spectacular. Having you doing it all is just what we needed... the harp, the guitar and the DJ.
Everyone tells me that I had a marvelous time dancing... and I did. You really got the guests involved and that really got the party going.

Thank you both for helping to make our evening so memorable!

Sincerely,

Eric & Shirley
