• I booked Judy to play ambient music following my wedding ceremony. Judy and I discussed the details two weeks prior to my event and agreed to all the terms verbally over the phone. I chose Judy because she offered a great price and had experience in what I needed including a great song list. Judy did a phenomenal job, she played just what I was looking for and added a great element to this part of my event. Thanks so much Judy!!! -- Tracy K, Milwaukee, WI, 5/14/2011
