Just a quick note Brad.
Thanks so much for Saturday. You far exceeded our expectations, both with quality and quantity! We have received some many compliments. There wasn’t a business card left at the end of the party.
You guys were a true highlight.
We shall definitely be using you again in the future.
All the best
