User reviews
- Such a fun evening! It was the perfect length and the performers were fantastic. The staff also definitely listens to reviews because I read from previous events that a spotlight was on and ruined the ambiance; happy to say that it was off for our performance and the candlelight aspect was fantastic. Definitely recommend going!
