Carousel
Joe & Staff
Wow! Thanks to all of you, Heather & Troy truly had their dream wedding.
The guests are still raving about the music. The song selection was great...it
was perfect!
I hope you enjoyed playing at the Casino. The entire wedding was just a fairly tale. We so appreciate you all contributing to the night.
Thanks again,

Joe,
I just wanted to send a thank you to you and your band for the amazing job you
did at our wedding on August 6 at Waverly Oaks Golf Club!!! The way the night
flowed and the selection of songs you put together far exceeded our expectations.
Everyone is still talking about what a great job you did and how the dance floor
was "packed" all night....thanks to you. I was particularly pleased with how
smooth the transition was when you took a break and DJ'd some dance music. No
one missed a beat and instead just kept on dancing. It was perfect.
We had the most amazing wedding and I truly believe you had a lot to do with it. We cannot thank you enough. I've already been referring you to any friends I can!!!
Thanks again. You all are truly professionals!
Sincerely,
Megan (Keddy) and Matt Davison

Dear Carousel,
What a night! Colin and I wanted to say a huge thank you for your wonderful performance at our wedding reception in June. We had such a great time dancing the night away and our guests can't stop talking about what fun they had. Friends and family members who typically don't dance were on the floor all night.
Please don't hesitate to give out our names as references, we'd be more than happy to share our experience.
Warmest regards,
Nellie (Chandler) & Colin Bailey

Dear Joe and Carousel,
Thank you for making such beautiful music at our wedding at Nauticus Marina! You guys are exceptional musicians - every song sounded fantastic and we're only sorry we didn't have more time to dance. Your sound, classic & laid back yet upbeat & smooth, was exactly what we were hoping for. We so appreciated how easy you were to work with and how accommodating.
We felt like you really listened to what we wanted and delivered (every song we loved plus learning a little Springsteen - awesome!) We couldn't have imagined a more perfect wedding and we know that you guys deserve a large share of the credit for that! Thanks again!
All the best,
Lisa (Staudt) & Seth Squadron

Joe,
A belated, but warm Thank You for playing at our daughter Tricia's wedding on September 4th at the Wychmere Harbor Club. The music was excellent, the dance selections mapped nicely across the various age groups, and by all acclaim, was fun to dance to! The Emcee was smooth & professional and kept events moving smoothly.
The entertainment was very professional and added an elegant dimension to the wedding reception. Please pass along my our compliments to the Band for the lovely entertainment provided and rest assured we will recommend you whenever we can.

Please pass along our very sincere thank you to the band for a truly wonderful performance at our wedding reception on August 14th. We received so many compliments from our guests that we wanted to pass them along with our thanks. We had a wonderful wedding! Thank you so much.

Dear Joe and Carousel,
We have just returned from our vacation after the wedding (Atkinson/Griffith, 8/28/04). We were so very pleased with your performance. Many people commented on how wonderful the band was. Matter of fact, my younger daughter has commented that she wants you to be her band at her wedding (whenever that may be, not too soon we hope!)
Thank you for adding to the joy of Jennifer and Ben's wedding day. I thought you did a wonderful job and was so very impressed at how well you duplicated the sound of their first dance song.
Once again, thank you for adding to the joy on Jennifer and Ben's wedding day.

Hi Joe !
We just got back from our trip and I just wanted to write you a quick note to thank you and the band for playing at our wedding on August 6th. You guys were unbelievable! We had such a great time and everyone has said what a great band...I think people danced through the meal! It was such a great time and all of the songs we chose for our dances were wonderful too! Please pass along a thank you to all of the members of Carousel and I hope we will see you playing at many of our friends weddings!
Warmly,
Lauren and Josh LaPointe

I just wanted to thank you guys once again for a great wedding. You guys were great and all our friends and families are still talking about the band or playing your CD in their cars to this day. It was difficult having our wedding when the Groom's father was unexpectedly in the hospital, but with the support of great friends and family we went on with our wedding plans as his father would have wanted. Without your great musical talents and positive attitudes the tone of the wedding could have been different, but instead Sean and I had the wedding of our dreams and a night we will remember forever. Thank you all once again.

Joe,
I cannot say enough about your fabulous performance at our wedding. Our day was better than we dreamed of, and we owe a large portion of that to Carousel.
We knew from the job you did at my sister's reception that you guys would make our reception a blast, but you seriously blew EVERYONE away. We've received more phone calls and emails since we returned from our honeymoon, all about our band and all the dancing. People have said it's the best wedding they've ever been to. Carousel was perfection.
I'm one of three girls all married in the past 5 years. I've seen a lot of bands through friends etc. and you were better than some that claim they are the "most sought after in Boston" and who charge double your price. You should make a video copy of our reception when we get it and use it! You are under charging your clients!!!!!

To all the members of Carousel,
Thank you so much for an incredible performance at our November 8th wedding. Everyone has been commenting how great you were! People we know that don't dance, danced that evening! It was great to see people dance before dinner - that is a sign of a fun wedding. We loved how you announced our wedding party and our video! You helped make what everyone is calling the best wedding ever! Thanks again,

Joe,
I can't say enough good things about the extremely talented Carousel Band:
-
"Breathe" took my breath away, excellent.
-
Your professionalism in organizing and announcing all wedding events was excellent.
-
You managed to keep the dance floor crowded all night.
-
Versatility: You had the ability to mix the music to satisfy a full range of likes.
-
More versatility: You also have the ability to offer DJ services, which we took advantage of, resulting in an unbelievable wedding.
-
All our guests were impressed - except us - because we already knew the Carousel Band is the best, and you proved it.
Thank you for being a major contributor to a memorable
event.
Sincerely,

Hi Joe,
Brent and I just got our wedding video back, and we realized that we had forgotten to email you and Carousel! We wanted to thank you (and Carousel) for the AMAZING job you did at our wedding back in August! So many of our guests commented on the awesome band. CAROUSEL really made our wedding great. I can't thank you enough!

Dear Joe & the members of Carousel,
We would like to thank you for the fantastic performance you did at our July 19th wedding! People keep complimenting us on the outstanding band! We went to four weddings this summer and we think that we had more people dancing than all the others! You set up a fun atmosphere that even kept us dancing! We even kept dancing during the break!
We booked you through a referral & if we come
across anyone looking for entertainment, we will be sure they get
your card! Thank you!

Dear Joe and the members of Carousel,
Matt and I just wanted to thank you all for the amazing job you did playing at our wedding on July 26th at Ballymeade. We have gotten so many great comments about the band and we couldn't have been happier!
Despite all the traffic that day, it turned out to be a really fun wedding, thanks to you all! Please extend our best to everyone!

Dear Joe and the members of Carousel,
First of all, my apologies for the delay in this letter. Things have been a little crazy settling in to newlywed life! Nonetheless, Pete and I would like to thank you so much for the fabulous job you did playing at our May 11, 2002 wedding - we could not be more thrilled with how things turned out. In fact, we still hear guests commenting on how great you were over five months later!
I honestly can't say strongly enough how relaxed I felt at the wedding knowing that the band was getting everyone up out on the dance floor, as well as making the events of the evening flow smoothly. All of the music was perfectly timed and executed with almost no direction by us. The announcing was perfect, everything flowed beautifully, and Pete especially appreciated the spontaneous drumroll during the "piggy back" portion of the bestman's toast. We really felt that the band was "invested" in our event, which made the whole evening seem a lot more personalized.
I realize these things are probably second nature to such a professional operation that has worked together for so long, but I just wanted to let you know that it was especially appreciated. You play hundreds of weddings, but we only had one, and we sincerely thank you for helping to make it the perfect evening that it was.
We go out of our way to recommend you to everyone we
know that is getting married and looking for a band, and we will continue
to do so based on the fabulous experience we had. Please feel free
to give our names and our new phone number or my email address out
to prospective brides and grooms looking for recommendations.

Hi Joe,
I'm sorry I didn't get a chance to thank you all for the other night. As usual, and as I expected, you guys were awesome and got everyone out on the dance floor! Thank you so much for all of your effort. I really appreciate it...everyone thinks I'm a musical genius for hiring you!
Please pass my gratitude on to the rest of the band.
I am sure our paths will cross again.

Dear Carousel,
Markus and I would like to thank you for helping to
make our wedding day so fun and memorable! You guys ruled! Everyone
just thought you guys made the wedding so much fun. Our guests continue
to comment on how great you all were. You knew when to slow things
down and when to keep on rockin'. You sounded awesome and played great
songs too! Thanks again.

Joe and the rest of the Carousel Band,
Jim and I would like to thank you for your outstanding performance at our wedding on October 20, 2001. We knew how fabulous all of you were just by listening to the CD you sent to us and by word of mouth, but when we heard your talent in person the day of our wedding, we were amazed!! We did not think it could get much better than what we heard on the CD!!! The band really did help make our wedding day something we will always remember - everyone had a complete blast and there wasn't one person sitting down the entire night, including the bride and groom!! It was such a magical, dream-like day and Carousel helped to make it that way.
We cannot speak highly enough of the band, and have recommended you to many of our friends who got married last year or are getting married this year. One of my husband's co-workers booked the band for her daughter's wedding last year and loved you so much, her husband then booked the band for his yearly Lions Club function. I am so glad we were able to refer some of our friends to you - and so were they!! You are some of the most professional people we worked with while planning our wedding, but you were also very easy to talk to and work with and that made it so much easier for me.
Again, many heart-felt thanks for all you have done
to make our wedding day the most amazing day of our lives. We truly
appreciate it and hope to see you at upcoming weddings!
