A Testimonial in verse....
Our little girl got married
She was wedded to her mate
The day OK, the food was good
The entertainment great.
We searched through directories
The best had to be found
Ordinary was not good enough
Then we saw it, Sandy Sounds
It said there would be music
Children’s games, balloons and fun
Karaoke, speeches, coloured lights
Something therefore everyone
It started with a fanfare
As into the room we came
A special tune for everyone
Who was introduced by name.
Soft music for the speeches
The room bathed in coloured light
That matched the brides ensemble
And danced on through the night.
Nothing was too much trouble
Each request was quickly found
Each budding presley and Madonna
Added their individual sound.
The first dance it was special
Chosen just for the bride and groom
Soft tones, and lights, projected shapes
All danced around the room.
And then to up the tempo
As dance music out did ring
Each Swayze and Travolta
Doing their special thing
Songs to dance and sing to
As the night did race away
Silver lining raining men
And of course YMCA.
All too quickly the day was over
The coloured lights went out
Burst balloons strewed the floor
A brilliant night without a doubt.
So to anyone who’s thinking
Of staging an event
In ballroom, pub, a function
Maybe even in a tent.
When only the best is good enough
When second rate just will not do
There’s a dizzy blonde who knows her stuff
I’d like to introduce you to.
You’ve seen the rest or heard them
But there’s none that can be found
That could even hold a candle to
The one and only Sandy Sounds
