Jacqui's Private Party in Dingley Village , Aug 2024
Tess was absolutely amazing! Thanks so much for making my dad's 80th celebration extra special, he was thrilled with the music, and we all loved the last song request which was a beautiful performance. Tess was such a delight to deal with and her helpful partner Micheal. Thanks again Tess and I hope to hear your beautiful singing again in the near future. I recommend Tess for your event!! :)
