"Thank you soooooo much for the most amazing night of our lives! You truly made our
wedding reception the success that it was! You can't even imagine how many people came
up to us during and since our wedding to tell us how fantastic Intrigue was. You kept
everyone on the dance floor until 1AM begging for more! We appreciate all that you did
to make our night so special--learning 4 new songs, recording our version of Tik Tok,
allowing us to practice our first dance during cocktail hour, etc. We would not have
wanted to change one thing because you made our night absolutely perfect!"

"Do you get tired of hearing how terrific you and your band are?
Absolutely amazing music- from vocals to instrumentalists- the very
best! We have received so many compliments on our choice of band and
we hope we will generate lots of business for you. You made our
wedding so special, kept our guests on the dance floor all night, and
did all of that with smiles on your faces. You were a pleasure to
deal with- kind, warm and an excellent listener to our wishes- from
honoring the kids song selections, to following the planned itinerary
and arranging the ceremony music. We can only say the sincerest of
thanks. We would be pleased to give references at any time and hope
you will be available when we come calling for our next affair!"

"The song is called 'Niloofar' (which is a girls name)" Sarvy responded. "The song
is very old and I honestly don't know who originally sang it. When I was a little
girl, it was the go to song on all road trips and I remember having a lot of fun
listening to it with my Dad. For the wedding, the lead singer of the band (Stella
Actis Aldo) learned the song in Persian and changed the name to my name! Her and
My mother worked on it for awhile and although Stella does not speak Persian she did
an amazing job singing the song for me and my dad."

the feeling of the evening from the strings to the patio to the toasts and to the

It all went too quickly. Thank you for making it the wedding of Beth's dreams."

"Everyone I have talked to said this was one of the best weddings they attended. I agree.
As father of the bride, I had a blast. You and Intrigue deserve a great deal of thanks
for the attention to detail in planning, and of course an absolutely great performance.
You had the house rocking and participating when called for, and the music performed for
the tender moments was very moving. I will never forget my dance with Maria to "Isn't She
Lovely". The wedding would not have been as nearly successful without Intrigue. Again, my
deepest gratitude for providing my daughter with her night of happiness and memories."

"Until this day, people tell me how much fun they had and it was the best wedding they
have been to. And as you saw, a real rarity now a days, not many people stay until the
very end. We had at least 100 people stay that long and that was because of you. You made
the wedding so much fun. From your beautiful voices that started in church to the song
selection in the hall. You are the best band in Metro Detroit."

THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!!!!!!!
Michael and I had the most amazing time Saturday! It meant so much to me that you learned
al green- put a little love and rent- seasons of love for the wedding and I had the best
time belting it out with you. We keep hearing it was the most fun wedding (including a
“the most fun wedding I have ever been to” from a professional DJ who owns his own party
company), and that had everything to do with you. The dance floor was the place to be and
I still can’t stop jumping up and down. If you ever need a reference I would give you a
five star review! Thank you so much, to all of Intrigue, for your energy, hard work and
talent, you helped make our wedding unforgettable.
With love,
Michael and Becca Schostak
