"88 played during my wedding launch on the boat at Canary Wharf. His music was absolutely perfect and created a magical atmosphere. He worked hard for weeks to be able to create the playlist that was in tune with my musical requests (although I was a bit picky). I appreciated his work, you were fantastic. Thank You!"
