Elaine J booked Viva La Sax for their event in Cheshire
“Hi Becky After a completely manic weekend at our house, I just wanted to say thank you so very much for all your help at short notice last week in securing Viva la Sax for Mike’s 50th Party. She was fabulous and just ‘mucked in’ to a rather mad house party which was almost thwarted by torrential rain! Everyone said how great Viva La Sax was and it really helped to relax the mood and get the party going with a swing. The whole experience of Alive Network has been superb from beginning to end and I just wanted to say thank you. ”
