We had a wonderful wedding celebration and an exceptional reception. We are just now catching our breath. Thank you for the opportunity to give you some feedback. We found working with Sam Hill Entertainment easy and straightforward. Your quick turn around on information and requests was excellent and we very much appreciated that! It made our job much easier. CHARLIE was a great band. They were professional and kept to their time frame perfectly. If anything we may have slowed them up a bit but it all worked out fine. They kept the dance floor busy all evening long. They took our daughter’s request for the father/daughter dance song and did a SUPERB job of learning the music, the lyrics and then delivering an exceptional rendering of a song that was out of their comfort zone! It was probably the best song of the evening. Please extend our thank you to them once again for that effort. All in all it was a great performance and we would highly recommend not only the band CHARLIE but Sam Hill Entertainment as well. Thank you and have a great day. Best, The McCullas

They were fabulous!! We could not have been any happier. We did not hear one negative word about the band and in fact EVERYONE wanted to know where we found this band. I am one of ten children, with 35 nieces and nephews of which Maria was the 8th of the nieces and nephews to get married and our reception was voted the best of them all by all the family. The band made it!! I had an older couple come up to me and ask me, "where did you find this band, they are fabulous". "It's usually the band that runs us off, but this band has kept us here till the end." That is what was so nice about "Charlie" is that every generation enjoyed them, the old, middle aged, and young alike enjoyed the entertainment. Thank you for recommending them. We will be highly recommending you, or organization, and the band to everyone we know. You were awesome to deal with, and kept communication open and on point. Thank you for your support and helping to make my daughter's wedding day a dream come true. Fondly, Mary Stapleton

In addition, we had some rather specific requests regarding their music selection, etc and they were 100% accommodating in working with us. Really couldn't have asked for anything more.

Everyone was impressed with the versatility of the band, the selections of songs and the general great presentation. Even the country club folks were hanging around to try to hear more of the band. You helped make Amber's day so special and make a very happy bride. Again our thanks, Kathy Kinard

We really loved the CHARLIE BAND. It truly was the highlight of the evening. Everyone was up and dancing the night away. They looked great, they sounded great and they were very entertaining and very professional. Thanking us as well as location and food vendor was a nice touch! I hope you get a good report from them as well. They seemed to enjoy the evening as well. We might have been an older and smaller group than they expected but we all danced our hearts out! Truly booking with you was wonderful! We will book through you any time we want to party, and yes we are more than happy to pass your information on to others. Andy, continue working with others just like you worked with us and we will pass your name on the others, in fact we already have. Thank you for your assistance and speed in getting the band we wanted on our special day! Thanks, Bob & Pat Hannan August 23, 2010

Everything was great with the band. They were fun, great music, and the comment we received the most is that they were personal – they were about Kate and Mark and ensuring that everyone had a great time. I would certainly recommend them and hire them again. Thanks for helping make Kate and Mark’s reception a memorable one. Kathryn Kathryn Fuller Yandell

We are definitely pleased with our experience with Charlie playing at our wedding reception! They were very easy and pleasant to work with from the first time we had contact through the day of the wedding, which required some flexibility on their part due to weather [the reception was moved indoors b/c of rain.] They were gracious to learn a 'special song' just a couple of weeks before the wedding, and serenaded my father with "happy birthday," which was really fun. AND... we were really hoping for a dance-filled reception, and literally, guests starting dancing right after the first dance and danced until the reception was over... and they have not stopped talking about what a fun reception it was, which is largely thanks to Charlie. Thanks for your help in assisting us to find a fun band for our wedding reception! Katie-Anne & Tim Padalino

They were very accommodating of our ever-changing schedule (everything seems to run longer than you'd expect at a wedding!) but more than that they were GREAT entertainers! All of our guests commented to us how great the band was and asked how we'd found them! We are happy to provide a positive "reference" for any future potential clients. Thanks for all of your help and your attentive nature! Best! Elle Allen

Hi Mike, Charlie was wonderful! They were courteous, fun and the music was fantastic.

The band was not only amazing (they were very talented musicians and singers), but also incredibly professional and uniquely able to get everyone at the reception involved and on the dance floor. The #1 thing we have heard from guests since our wedding was how impressed they were with our band. They were able to play such a range of songs so well and really knew how to make sure everyone in attendance was having a great time. Richard and I can honestly say that choosing this band was the best decision we made for the reception. I would be more than happy to be a reference for them at any time and will certainly use them for any occasion for which we would need a band in the future. _________________ Lauren N.

Charlie was exactly what we were looking for & we couldn't have been happier with their performance! Not only are they extremely talented and entertaining, they were so accomodating and easy to work with. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone who's looking for a fun evening with great musicians! My only suggestion would be to raise their rates; they're worth far more than we paid! Thanks again, Emily & Matt Gallo

This was our 5th annual Gala and more people danced and stayed until the very end than ever before and it was because of Charlie. I personally kicked off my heels and danced until I was ready to drop! All of the band members were really nice, too! They came on time, played long sets, let us interrupt a set when our MC needed to make announcements about the silent auction that we had going on. They were truly a delight to work with. We will contact you again the next time we need a band! Cheers, Judy Mosedale Executive Director Staunton Performing Arts Center Staunton, VA

We're back and acclimating again to the "real world." We have nothing but wonderful things to say about Charlie! We received fantastic comments from our guests about the music for the entire reception. The band played beautiful soft jazz during the cocktail hour (my godfather wants to book them for a jazz festival he runs in SC!) and then ramped it up for the dance party later in the evening. Believe it or not -- they even had the father of the bride and the father of the groom trying to out "gator" one another. I'm not sure who was having more fun -- the guests or the band! So thank you for helping us to book the life of the party -- and for such an easy and informative planning experience. I will certainly use SamHill again in the future and recommend you (and Charlie) to friends and family. All best, Anna & Tom Bentson

Everything worked out great, everybody had a great time. Tell the guys thanks for me if you happen to talk to them soon. I'm sure we will be in touch again soon for some of our other social events. Thanks again, Taylor
