Hi Leslie, Thanks so much for organising all the acts. Firstly, you as a company did an amazing job at organising everything and appreciate you being so communicative and supportive with this booking. Secondly, all the acts were great and have rated them as so below. Everyone was really personable and wanted to make our event as much of a success as we did which was amazing.

I recently hired Chosen Events Entertainment to help bring some fun and flair to our drinks reception, and they absolutely delivered. From start to finish, their service was seamless, professional, and refreshingly creative. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Chosen Events Entertainment and will definitely be using them again for future events.

It was the first time that the Club has used a similar service and the dancers were excellent and also able to flex their approach to meet our needs (as the stage space was limited and headset mics in short supply). We captured some fantastic photos that show just how much our employees enjoyed the event and all the dancers were friendly and helpful. It helped us to get into the party spirit and also set the Western theme/tone really well
