Special Event
Love Notes
Dear Scott,
Scott and the other band members were just great. Our dance floor was full the entire evening. Their interaction with the crowd and choice of music was wonderful.
We were very pleased with the band's performance. Scott did a great job with the wedding introductions. All of our guests enjoyed the music as evidenced by the packed dance floor.
Many people commented about the band and were very impressed. They interacted with our guests and did a great job playing music which kept our guests on the dance floor. Their performance was above and beyond our expectations. I am so pleased that I hired them and would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone. They made our reception a memorable evening for Lauren and Eric, our guests and family.
If I ever have the need to hire a band again, I wouldn't hesitate to call you. We were at a wedding this past week-end and they had a band; they could not compare with Special Event.. All of our guests commented on how good they were.
Sincerely,
Debbie Steel
Mother of the Bride
Hi Scott!
We just wanted to say thanks for making our wedding AWESOME! We had such a blast and it was primarily because you and your band. They made our wedding so fun. Young and old enjoyed them. Thanks again!!
Best of luck to you!

Dear Scott,
Brandon and I wanted to thank you for the wonderful performance by Special Event at our wedding on July 12th. Music at our wedding reception was an extremely important part of the event for us and your band surpassed all of our expectations. The band did an outstanding job of keeping the guests on the dance floor, not just towards the end of the night, but the entire evening, which is exactly what we wanted. We have received so many comments from guests, such as "That band was AWESOME! How did you find them?", etc. We are very appreciative of the time and effort you put into this event to help make the night as special as it was for us.
Please feel free to use us as a reference for potential clients in the future. You are welcome to post this note also.
Thanks for everything.
Kris and Brandon Raybourne
Scott,
On behalf of Kris, Brandon and both of our families, I would like to take a
moment to offer our sincere "thanks" for the efforts that you and the entire
Special Events music team displayed during your performance on Saturday evening. The feedback that has been received to date has been extremely
positive. Of significance were the communications, direction, flexibility
and co-ordination both prior to and during the event. Other noteworthy
feedback that I would like to relay includes the quality of the sound
system, the quality of the music, the professional image displayed during
the night, the style used in delivering the performance and the techniques
used to interact with our guests e.g. moving to the dance floor while
performing.
Joan and I especially, appreciated the dinner segment, while Kris and
Brandon especially enjoyed "their" music later in the evening. On a scale of
0 - 10, I would rate the group's performance as a 10, as a good time was certainly had by all in attendance.
Please feel free to use our feedback as a referral for potential clients and
advise if a testimonial would be of interest from our families. It was truly
a memorable day and evening for which your team made it a very "Special Event".
All the best to you and the group in the future. We look forward to either
participating or working with you once again at some time down the road.
Please advise if the group has plans to perform at any Cleveland region
public venues in the future as Joan and I would certainly like to
participate and enjoy another performance in a somewhat less intense environment.
Regards,
Ray Champa, Father of the Bride
Band did an outstanding job of getting guests to the dance floor early in the evening & keeping them there all night. Song list was appealing to all age groups. Interaction with the guests was very much appreciated.
Kristina Raybourne, Bride
The band did an awesome job. The sound was fabulous and the band players were great!

Mother of the Bride
Your performance made all the difference between a nice reception and a spectacular reception! We continue to receive compliments & notes saying how much fun it was! I give you all the credit! & My husband credit for hiring you!
Denise Williams, Interior Designer
The band was great and received rave reviews from everyone in attendance. I would HIGHLY recommend them!
-Kim Szczepinski
Just wanted you to know that Special Event was absolutely fabulous on Saturday night! We had the greatest party and the music had all our guests on the dance floor. What a night to remember. They were so very professional (and so understanding and patient in trying to gather all of our bridal party together to introduce and get things rolling!) ... We will most definitely give their name out for anyone who needs music at a function! Thanks again for everything!
The whole organization most professional - loved the band's appearance - they were fun and most accommodating to all our requests.
-Nancy and Joe Lykins and Megan and Dan Reich
We certainly recommend this band to other future wedding planners and other social events. We received many positive comments about Special Event - they were talented, professional & fun loving!
The dance floor was packed...evidence of a talented and entertaining band!
-Elizabeth and John Collins, Parents of the Bride
Dear Special Event,
Thanks you for sharing your amazing talents with us. You made our reception a great joy & super fun to dance. The band sounded superb.
Thanks again!
Sincerely,
Theresa & Matt
Scott,
Kudos to you and the band -- a really excellent performance. It was the first of our weddings where my mom didn't go stop the band for one reason or another, usually for being too darned loud. You guys were perfect throughout and everyone had a great time. A special thanks to you, Glen and the sound engineer for letting us step in. It was certainly a highlight for the three of us, though a few of my siblings were gracious enough to remind me why I took a desk job...
Great performance & just the right level of engagement. Happy to serve as a positive reference in the future if you should need one.
Thanks a lot,
Mike & Amy Walsh
OUTSTANDING!! They really know how to get the group going - GREAT Entertainment!
-Becky Harold, Mother of the Bride
Scott and the band were great the entire time. Very receptive to our ideas and gave good suggestions. The band was energetic and kept our reception hopping. And a special thanks for agreeing to learn our first song, which was fairly obscure. Would highly suggest again.
-Jeff Price
Special event MORE than exceeded our already high expectations. They are all extremely talented singers and musicians who proved to be both professional AND very warm and engaging. Our guests are still raving about them!
-Andi Carlini
Everyone loved them. Could not have been more accommodating. Even the bartender asked for their card!
A Big Thank You.
-Ann & Fred Ritty
Our "Sweetheart Gala Dance" on February 10 was a huge success and the music from Special Event was fabulous. They drew the crowd onto the dance floor and held them all evening. Scott and company did not power the house with volume, because SouthPark Mall is an easy venue to overplay. Their selections exuded romance and made the hours fly by. Very professional, very passionate and very warm. Our trustees of the Strongsville Education Foundation were extremely pleased with the results and the audience told us that throughout the evening. Many thanks to the group for a wonderful event.
-Ken Evans, trustee
Darla was so helpful and the band was great. I've already passed your name to several other people.
Special Event was outstanding! Compliments have been coming to us left and right. In fact, I've already left you a message - our other daughter became engaged the day after Emily's wedding. Please call me so we can check your schedule for summer 2007.
-Becky Harold, Mother of the Bride
Great Job! Got everyone dancing!"
-Brenda Norton
Great! Great! Great! Just keep doing what you're doing!
-Jean Stephenson
Dear Scott,
Just wanted to say thank you again for the incredible job you & your band did Saturday evening at our party. People are still raving about the music - So our thanks for helping to make the evening a huge success.
-Sue Bailys & Larry Sherman
Please give our thanks to all members of Special Event for sharing their time and talent to make our wedding day so special. Their entertainment and music were wonderful! We had a great time and all of our guests seemed to be enjoying the evening too. We received many compliments about the band and its performance. Special thanks to Scott Mehalko who helped us with planning our evening and who did a great job as an M.C. of our wedding reception (quickly mastering foreign names and customs...) Special Event has definitely added to the unique atmosphere and wonderful memories of our wedding day.
With appreciation,
-Martina & George
My NYC family was very impressed - they usually hire from New Orleans!
-Judy Varty
Just fantastic!
-Stanley R Owoc

Thanks much!
-Regina Dowidchuck
We want to thank the band for doing an excellent job at our wedding . Everyone was complimenting on how the band was so good and that everyone was dancing during the evening. It was a great end to our special day. Thanks again for letting us use the microphone, even though we didn't’t sound as good as the singers in the band.
With many thanks,
-Betsy and Randy
Great Job all around!
Really liked working with Scott. You can use us for a reference.
-Jeanne Shatten
Thank you for making our day fun and exciting.

We were very pleased with the performance and so were our guests.

I have gotten lots of comments on what a great band Special Event was. We were very pleased.
-Harriet Brenner
Our family and friends loved you!
-Debra Harris
Very nice job as usual! We appreciate everything,
-Kimberly Viola
The music was wonderful! People commented that it was so nice to have a band instead of a disc jockey. The singer did and excellent job of pulling people into the entertainment and insuring they enjoyed themselves. She had so much energy-she must have been tired at the end of the evening!!
