Karen & Sean Welsh
Dear Chuck,
Thank you for a wonderful job you did at our reception.  You even took that extra step for us and
played the wedding song we wanted.  We gave you only a few songs that we really liked and you took it from there- perfectly!  We got so many compliments on the choice of music, it was a great time had by all.  Our wedding and reception were exactly what we dreamed of; small, intimate and fun with great music and a photographer who knew how to capture the perfect picture.  You were very easy to work with and you knew what we wanted.  You guys are great!!  If we ever get a chance to hire you again, we will!!!
Thank you, Thank you!!

Shawn & Neil Evans

Hi Chuck,

Neil and I are home now and getting back into the daily routine.  We just wanted to thank you again for all your help with our wedding.  Coming from Ohio, we were really beginning to think we were in over our heads.  You and Dara made planning a destination wedding a breeze.  Our family and friends had a great time.  The mood and music were perfect and exactly what we were hoping for when we first started talking about a beach wedding.  We couldn't be happier with the way everything turned out.  Even when we came to the Beach House a few days after our wedding, we had a great time watching you perform!  For any brides-to-be who might be reading this, stop your search now!  Our reception was a blast, our pictures are beautiful!  Thanks again!

Your newest fans, 

Shawn and Neil Evans


Faith & Derek Klosterman
Chuck & Dara,
 
    Derek & I just wanted to write to thank you so much for helping make our wedding a truly special day. Chuck, not only was the music wonderful (we loved how you performed our song, "Wonderful Tonight") but you helped us, along with Dara, coordinate the wedding. You both we so sweet and helpful. We were both nervous about the wedding, especially since I had never been to Anna Maria Island or met you officially in person,  but we couldn't be happier with the way everything worked out. Also, the pics on the website look great Dara! Thanks so much for everything. We hope to make many more vacations to Anna Maria Island and maybe will see you perform at the Sandbar again.

Tammy & Jerry Butler
Dear Chuck and Dara,
 
I just have to write this little note to the two of you to let you know just how much my husband and I ... and all the guests at Tammy and Jerry's wedding last week...  enjoyed your music.   Everyone had such a good time, I don't think a single guest wanted you to leave.  I am so happy that your name was given to us - it truly was the best choice we could have made, of that I'm certain.  Chuck, you are professional and accomplished, and exhibit true meaning of the word musician.   And Dara, you are absolutely delightful and charming.  I can see why Chuck would want you along when he performs.  You must be the "wind beneath his wings".  
Well, I don't want to get gushy, , just wanted you both to know how much we truly enjoyed your music and your presence last week. Thank you so much for everything!  I would highly recommend you to anyone.
 
Be well.
 
Sincerely,
 
Patricia Brugger

Chuck,
 
Tara and I would like to thank you again for the fantastic job you did.  We were thrilled that the wedding and the music went perfectly. 
 
We highly recommend Chuck for weddings or any other occasion that you need a great entertainer.  Chuck kept our reception lively and fun.  He did a great job with the music selection, and encouraged us to add some of our own favorite music.  Thanks again Chuck for adding to such a memorable night.

Genifer and Mark Johnson

Chuck, 

 I would like to start out with a big thank you for a job well done at the wedding & reception. You and your wife, Dara, are very coordinating when it comes to music.  All the songs you suggested to me for the March and the Recessional were beautiful, they fit right in with the mood.  Chuck, my wedding wouldn't have been a success without God, and he sent you to me.  Thanks again for the great music you chose to play, and also the great solo voice.  You and your wife make sure your guests are very comfortable with the selection of music.

God bless you and your family over the holidays,

                                                            Genifer and Mark Johnson

Chuck was the DJ at our Beach Wedding. We were so glad that we chose Chuck as our DJ, because there was not one dull moment. He was helpful in the selection of music, he got everyone up and dancing, and we didn't have to worry about anything!

Chuck and Dara
 
  We want to thank you for the great job you did at our wedding in the
Beachhouse on Ana Maria Island. We also want to thank your wife Dara in assisting in organizing the ceremony and the reception. Thank you for the flexibility you showed in allowing us to select the music, even though it was mainly Latin, you knew how and when to play them.  Everyone complimented us on the wedding and how much fun they had with all the great music and dancing. We would recommend you to anyone and if we ever have a large party you'll be the first we'll call.
 
                    Thanks again for the GREAT music and all your help!
                                              Outstanding Job!!!!!!
                                                       Maria & JC

Chuck- Just wanted to thank you again for the wonderful entertainment you provided during our rehearsal dinner at the Sandbar.  Your music made the night so much more memorable for everyone -- I'm sure you could tell that our guests of all ages were enjoying themselves, whether they were just listening to you sing or dancing in the sand.  And the kids loved the little "instruments" you provided for them to play along with you.  What a fun night!

Thanks also for your flexibility and great communication.  It was a pleasure working with you and we will certainly think of you first when we are looking for live music for our next event. 

Thanks again and good luck!
Mary Jo and Sean Williams


Thank you for all your flexibility and assistance for our wedding!
