Wedding Client Testimonial
Can not recommend TDC enough!!! Taylor was the star of our wedding and it certainly would not have been the same without his incredible energetic vibes, we have already had multiple guests ask for contact details for TDC so they too can book him in :D
It was an absolute pleasure to work with Taylor in the lead up, he was so understanding of the stressful moments and completely understood and excelled in our brief for entry and throughout the evening. I wish I could give 6 out of 5 stars and can not wait to see him in action and party with his wonderful talents. You would be silly to not have Taylor at your next event, thank you!!! Izzy, Doltone House.
