"Thanks again for providing us with top notch entertainment this past Saturday.
The diverse repertoire really made the party a hit for people of all ages and musical taste.
The ‘Italian opening’ was exactly what I was looking for to encompass the theme...
Although some choose not to dance, they enjoyed listening. (Which is the case every year)!

Happy Holidays to you and the band!"

"Where do we begin?????? Your singing at the Chapel was so pure that you gave us chills. Your voice blended beautifully with the violin.

Your band did an OUTSTANDING job at the reception. We had soooooo many wonderful comments from our guests. The music makes the party and we sure had a GREAT party!!!!!!

We can't wait to see the videos of the whole evening, so we can enjoy it again.

Thanks to you, our family and friends will have great memories of this evening for a long time."

"Just thought you would like to know that I keep your business card by my phone because I have been getting calls for your number.

The guests really enjoyed your music...the compliments are still coming!

People said the music at church was like being at a concert...and they thought the music made it more spiritual.

Thanks again for doing such a great job!!"

"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."

"Your music at Beth and Jason's wedding was Intriguingly wonderful!! You captured the feeling of the evening from the strings to the patio to the toasts and to the raging Hora. Because of your artistry the non-dancers and dancers danced the night away. It all went too quickly. Thank you for making it the wedding of Beth's dreams."

- Sam and Susie Bernstein (Parents of the Bride)

"I just want to say that you are the most professional band I have ever worked with… you made the event VERY smooth! Thanks for everything!!!

"You guys were absolutely fabulous and I can not thank you enough for helping us make our night so special. It was one of the great evenings of our lives and we were thrilled you could perform for us."

"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."

Costanzo Lijoi
- Father of the Bride

"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."

Angela Emmi
- Mother of the Bride

"THANK YOU!! THANK YOU!! You were/are awesome!! Your band made our wedding!! Every single person we have spoken to has commented on how fantastic the band was at our wedding...and how sore their legs were from dancing so much!!

I hope you realize how many people you make happy with your talent."

"Entertainment can make or break an evening, so Mr. and Mrs. Markowicz hit the road, dropping by other functions and clubs, auditioning bands in a 100 mile radius.   They found and booked Intrigue, a Detriot show band that will provide entertainment as well as music for dancing."

- Article in the Toledo Blade September 17, 2000 referring to its upcoming Toledo Opera charity event Sapphire Ball.

"Your band is incredible. You really know how to keep a party going.   Everyone had a fabulous time, they’re still talking about the fabulous music and how packed the dance floor was all night!   You made the celebration a success!   I truly enjoyed working with you and your group and look forward to doing it again!   You’re number #1 on my list."

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
