Hi Dave, Just a quick message to say 'thank you' for your services last Saturday at my daughter's wedding reception at Woolmer Green Hall.  I'm delighted to say that the entire day was a total success and virtually everything went according to our plans.  Your DJ -ing was really good and the music you provided seemed to be what our guests wanted - had them all on the dance floor - sorry if there was any 'Dad dancing'!  The lighting and effects were also fantastic.

I would also add that the bar service provided was great and your staff very friendly and efficient.  It seemed you all integrated very well with my caterer and the changeover was seamless.

Plus, thank you very much for allowing my sax player, Johnny Diggle,  to use your equipment at such short notice and without you being there to oversee.

I will certainly recommend you to any friends / family in the future.

Very best regards, Val.

David Chell entered into the spirit of our occasion playing the music that we had requested and interacting with the group which was great for us. We had discussed previously the type of music that we and our friends would appreciate and David definitely met our expectations. David is a professional and that was evident from his conversations prior to the event and throughout. David knows his business and how to interact with a mixed group of ages/types and is professional throughout while still ensuring that he is friendly and open. I would recommend him and use his services again

I have received nothing but high praise for the music you played on Saturday evening. I know Jenny was thrilled with it all, and the fact that the dance floor was always full must mean others were really enjoying it too! The lights and the screen worked well and the whole performance was most professional.

Thank you Sally, The Glebe House, Sacombe, Hertfordshire.

Dear David, Thank you so much for looking after us so well on Monday night. I think Showstoppers was a great success, and we have raised over £11,000 for Breakthrough!

You were thoroughly efficient and helpful throughout, and I very much look forward to working with you again sometime. Best wishes, Sally

Ross and I were more than pleased with our entertainment on Saturday night, I appreciate that you put a couple of extra floor lights down.

Dear Dave, I would like to express my thanks & appreciation for all the help you gave me in organising a themed surprise 40th party for my husband, on September 30th 2011.

It was a last minute decision by me to plan the party, & couldn't of done it without your help in sourcing the party pieces & help in decorating the room. The Disco was great,kept me dancing all night, from beginning till end & the guests when they finally hit the dance floor! I had a lot of nice comments about Tornado.

Thanks once again Gabrielle

Hello Dave, 'Having been so impressed at seeing the professionalism of Tornado Event Hire at a birthday party in 2009 I decided to hire them for our Wedding in July 2011 at Sopwell House. I couldn't have picked a better DJ and highly recommend the service they provide. They accurately took our needs into consideration (including additional requests) and are more than worth the money. Thank you for being a part of our day and making it perfect!'

Thank you personally, Kelly

Dear Dave (and Daryl)

I would like to take this opportunity to thank you and your company for you attendance and support, and the hard work you put in at our Open Day on Saturday. We believe we had around 850 people attending, and early feedback tells us everyone had a great time. We hope you enjoyed the day as much as we did, and we look forward to working with you on similar events in the future. As usual you did an exemplary job and we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend you to any one else looking to hire your services Many thanks once again.

Thank you so much for the CD, some of the pictures are really good and we will

put them up on our website and put them in to the album. We had a great time at our wedding, and the feedback from the guests has been amazing... You and Daryl did a great job in providing all the support we needed to have a great day. Thank you so much!

Simon - Civil Partnership @ Brocket Hall Golf Club.

"From enquiry to performance the quality and professionalism of the service we receive from Dave at Tornado is superb. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this service to any of our clients. The large screen showing music videos is a great addition. Whatever the demographics of the group the music and general atmosphere is tailored to fit and most importantly they have the art of getting people involved and up on the dance floor – where most guests will stay for the duration of the night. Our Members Christmas party has been a huge success for the past two years with the help and support of Tornado – even the most unlikely singers persuaded to show of their karaoke talents. Further on our staff Christmas party will be the subject of many a tale and a big thank you to Dave for making this event one to remember.

Paul Lancaster, Clubhouse Operations Manager, Brocket Hall Golf Club

Hi just a quick note to say thanks for doing the disco on Saturday night, exactly what i was after and everyone commented that the DJ did a great job. Many thanks the party was excellent. Cheers Barry 

"Hi Dave, Thank you so much for a great disco at our wedding. We were both really pleased with the way you accommodated some of our requests, especially sticking you up in the minstrel gallery to save floor space. We know it wasn't ideal for you being up in the rafters, but you did it without moaning and even though you couldn't see the crowd 100%, trust me you had them dancing all night. The star cloth, flame machines, bubble machine and moving heads all looked great and transformed our barn venue into a modern disco without looking cheesy at all. The karaoke was funny and a really great way to start the evening off and get our guests involved, without going on too long and becoming cheesy, just the right balance. You were superb, your equipment was superb, your music was varied and kept everyone of all ages dancing all night long. Thank you so much,"

"Hi Dave, We would just like to thank you again for Sat night. The music was brilliant and everyone really enjoyed the music you played, we had several people asking us where we found you because they thought you was so good.

"Dear Dave, Thank you for a fantastic evening on Saturday. Everything was great and everyone really enjoyed the dancing again and clearly did not want the evening to end.

With best wishes, Cathy".

I am fresh from the first Parents Association meeting of the year and the feedback has been outstanding about how great you were.

With very best wishes, Cathy".

"Firstly, please accept my apologies for the inexcusably late arrival of this letter of thanks after you organised and co-ordinated the music and photo presentation at the funeral of Tom Goom, deceased, on March 11th 2008. We were so impressed and appreciative of your friendly, helpful and sensitive approach to all our requests and were so grateful to you for all your support. On the day, we were very pleased with how everything worked out...Tom's service of celebration was great - exactly what we wanted. Please accept our heartfelt thanks....nothing could have been improved....you made what could have been a difficult day into something very special for everyone. Thank you for your understanding professionalism, your extra time and hard work. We have no hesitation in recommending your services to others in the future". Kind regards Lynda Warrington (Partner) Damian and Kieren (Sons to Tom)

P.S. I made sure that at the "reception" afterwards, we thanked you very publicly and passed on your details to others.

 “We have been using the service of Tornado for discos for our year 11 Prom for the past three years with huge success. The people involved are absolutely fantastic. They interact very well with the students and staff and provide excellent service. They arrive and set up promptly and are very generous with their time at the end of the session. We certainly get very good value for money. This year for the first time they were taking photographs during the course of the evening which they were subsequently displayed on a large screen to the delight of everyone. Subsequently we were sent a disc FREE of charge with all the photographs taken by them on the evening and the photographs truly captured the spirit of the evening. We shall certainly continue to use their services and would recommend the Tornado Services to other institutions or individuals without reservation.”

"What can I say.....'brilliant evening', 'superb', 'made me feel really special'.... just some of the comments we've had back from staff who were at the Belfry last weekend for the STARS ball. As part of the team who made it happen, you must take a lot of credit for the success of the evening. All the event admin would have counted for nothing if people hadn't had a great evening and the entertainment you organised for us was spot on. From the moment 'Robbie Williams' hit the stage, the dance floor was filled and I'm sure that, if we hadn't had a 2 am cut-off, we'd still be dancing now!" Jill Case, PA to the Chief Executive Your Move Estate Agents - Stars Ball - The Belfry, Nr Liverpool.

"Just a note to thank you for a superb disco at my husbands 40th last Saturday. All our family and friends had a fantastic evening and danced until their feet hurt. Your choice of music was totally appropriate to your audience and the dance floor was never empty. The accompanying music videos, on the giant screen, made a massive visual impact and created a superb atmosphere in the hall. The 'PowerPoint' presentation, using our family photographs, was a huge taliking point and brought a tear to the eye. You had a captive audience whenever it was played. Thank you for an excellent 'show' and for being so professional and well organised throughout. Even when i was overwhelmed by the scale of events, you gave me the confidence that 'everything was under control' and i very much appreciated your support. Thank you once again for a wonderful evening."
