Feedback

  • I had the tough task of trying to find the perfect entertainment for our employee Christmas Gala. When I decided on the Julie Lyon Quartet I explained that this was for a corporate function and their were lots of fine guidelines that we had to be aware of due to this being a faith based company. Julie made me feel so confident that everything would go well and as she promised, it did. I would recomend this Quartet to anyone having a party from 2 to 92. They sound amazing, were very professional, and made me feel at ease in a stressful situation. -- Nicole P, Orlando, FL, 12/8/2007
  • I knew I wanted a different feel for my wedding reception other than a DJ. After much research I decided upon the Julie Lyon Quartet which turned out to be the best decision for my wedding. With my wedding of approx 75 people I wanted to make sure that the music didn't overwhelm the event. The Julie Lyon Quartet kept the music going at an appropriate level in both timing and loudness the entire time. I couldn't be happier with my decision! Julie's pre planning checklist was what I needed to plan the reception from beginning to end. Everyone at the wedding including those who aren't jazz fans said how fun it was to hear live musicians. I would book them again! -- Donna R, Casselberry, FL, 10/19/2007
  • I thought the band was overall perfect. Played many classic Jazz songs. Julies voice is both soulful and soothing. It brought the class and elegance we wanted for our wedding. It made the atmosphere seem like a high end jazz club and everyone commented on how great the band sounded. They even me sing to my new bride while the band played. The could not have been more accomidating or professional. I hope to use them again for future events -- Mark C, Orlando, FL, 10/14/2006
  • This was the 1st event I had coordinated, so I was a little nervous and hesitate about booking the entertainment. But the Julie Lyon Quartet was a pleasant surprise; they set my mind at ease by taking care of the small details I would have otherwise overlooked. Their professionalism and talent far exceeded my expectations. They brought a since of elegance and delight to what could have been an otherwise bland and boring affair. I am grateful for their services, as well as the compliments I received from guests as a result of them. They will most definitely be our 1st choice of entertainment for all of our upcoming events. -- Jessica B, Kissimmee, FL, 5/24/2006
