“I first heard Katie singing in Fareham and invited her to come and sing at our local Women’s Institute group when we celebrated our 4th birthday; our members loved her.
I was so impressed I have asked her to come and sing at my
daughter’s wedding ceremony next year. I know she will really add a new dimension to my daughter’s special day.”

To any one thinking of hiring Katie for your event or party I would definitely recommend her.
You won’t regret it.”
