Dear Lisa and Hot Pursuit,

Larry and I cannot even begin to express our thanks for performing at our wedding at the NY Botanical Garden on October 22. Guests of all ages and generations are RAVING how fabulous our band was. (But we already knew that!). You were really able to "read the crowd" and play to the audience, even if it diverged from our play list. ( How were we supposed to know Justin Timberlake would be so popular with our younger guests?!!!).

Also I would like to thank you for the incredible gift of having the saxophonist perform for our first song. How my heart leapt with joy when I saw him up there with the rest of the band. Of course he was beyond amazing. And Frank...well, anyone who can transition so effortlessly from Sinatra to Bon Jovi, is a man of incredible talent.

Our only regrets are that we were so caught up in the excitement that we could not thank each and every band personally and we only plan on getting married once! We will definitely refer you to all our friends and family in hope that we can see you perform again soon!

Thanks a million

Hi Lisa,

I wanted to take the time to say THANK YOU SO MUCH for the wonderful job that you and the band did at our wedding. We just got back from our honeymoon a few days ago, and the first thing everyone we've seen or spoken to since we've returned has said was how much they LOVED the band at our wedding. You were all amazing. What I keep thinking about now that it is over is that the band executed exactly what you said they would by keeping everyone on the dance floor all night!

As my Dad said, it is very rare that the dance floor of a wedding is packed all the way thru the last song of the night-and ours was. We really can't say enough how grateful we are for the wonderful role that Hot Pursuit played in our special day and the amazing memories we will have for a lifetime. As soon as we get some pictures back I'd be happy to post one along with our testimonial to your website.

I would recommend the band to anyone for anything. As a matter of fact, the Executive Director of the organization that I work for (who was at the wedding) was asking about the band to think about hiring you for the Black Tie Gala fundraiser that we host as in the Spring. She is away on business now, but I told her I'd give her your contact info when she returns.

Thank you again for everything!

Hi Lisa (and the rest of the amazing crew),

I just wanted to thank everyone in Hot Pursuit for putting on such an amazing performance. I can not even tell you how many people are still talking about you all, saying it was the BEST band they ever heard. Hot Pursuit truly is the most talented wedding band that I (and all my guests) have ever heard. One person who spent $10,000 for her daughters wedding band said you all were better and took some of your cards. There is such talent and vivaciousness within Hot Pursuit. There are just not enough words to even express this. People even said that they never saw singers from a band come onto the dance floor like you all did. Every song people could not believe it was not the radio (it was a better than the originals). Also, the party flowed amazingly. There was never dead air. And, you all looked like you were having a truly good time (and looked gorgeous too). The picture I attached for you, my brother put as his computer screensaver : ). Also, you mixed up the music perfectly, when Beyonce played I knew it was right!

Once, again, I can go on forever, but Hot Pursuit was the best there is on Long Island (and probably elsewhere too).

Love always,

Hello Lisa, Sal and all Hot Pursuit Musicians,

Breffni and I heard about your band from a friend. When we saw the DVD and spoke with the both of you, we were immediately impressed. From day one you made us feel comfortable with your knowledge, patience and talent. All of our friends said their bands did not play many of the requested songs, so we were prepared for it. To our surprise, every time I spoke with either of you, you knew so many of the songs we really wanted and assured us you would do your best to make our day so special.

Well, you proved our friends wrong, because you played so many of our requests, we were amazed. Song after song, the crowd was all over the floor and overwhelmed with the energy and talent of Hot Pursuit.

Thanks so much for making our party so much fun and so memorable for not only us, but our guests as well.

Good luck in the future and we will be sure to pass the word around about how great you guys are!

Take care,
Maria and Breffni Kennedy

To Lisa, Sal and all of the band members --

You will of course receive a formal thank you, but I could not wait to tell you that hiring Hot Pursuit was the very best wedding decision that we could have made. People who didn't attend the wedding heard how incredible you all are and those who did attend have called my family to say that you were the best band that they heard at a wedding EVER.

From the time that Dan and I heard you warming up, to our first dance song, to our tarantella/hava negila mix to our last song - it was so perfect. I especially loved it when you came into the crowd to sing!

Thank you, thank you, thank you one million times over. You made our day beyond anything we imagined - we had so much fun thanks in very large part to all of you.

Sincerely yours,
Melissa Montemale

Dear Lisa, Frank, and the entire Hot Pursuit ensemble,

Both Kerri and I apologize for taking this long to send you a huge thank you. We had a wonderful time at our wedding due in no small part to Hot Pursuit.

All of you were wonderful and made the night very memorable. The music was great and everyone was on the dance floor throughout the entire night. Both Kerri and I have received and continue to receive compliments about Hot Pursuit and the music of the night. So many people have told us that you guys were great and the best wedding band they have ever heard. Of course Kerri and I already knew that!

Our wedding song sounded better than the original and I wanted to send a big thank you out to Frank and Sal for doing such a great job. Our first dance and the music that Hot Pursuit provided for it will always be remembered by Kerri and I.

We also wanted to thank you for inviting/allowing her father to play a few songs with you. I know it meant a lot to Kerri and her family to see her Dad have such a unique part in the wedding.

The only sad part about the evening was that it had to end and with that your music. However, both of us are looking forward to my sisters wedding in December 2006 where Hot Pursuit will provide the best entertainment available and rock the house once again!

Love,
KerriAnn and Erik MacEwen

Lisa, THANK YOU SO MUCH!! I can not fully express our gratitude for you and your wonderful group of musicians for playing at our wedding. All of you are magnificent, talented entertainers and exponentially better than most so-called "popular" bands we hear on the radio today. The band was AWESOME and all our guests are still singing your praises. You were part of making our wedding day as fun and amazing as we had hoped it would be. We will always remember that day happily, in part to Hot Pursuit. I'm so glad you had a good time too. I would recommend Hot Pursuit to anyone who asked in a heartbeat.

Thanks to all again,

Dear Lisa, Sal, and the Gang,
There aren't enough words to thank you for bringing our wedding celebration to a level we never thought possible. It is one month after our wedding and the calls keep pouring in about "our band". All we hear from our guests is "that was the best band we have ever heard". We have friends referring friends now, so get ready for a lot of calls. You promised us an affair to remember, and you delivered ten fold. You were all so professional and accomodating to everyone of our needs. You really care and it shows. I want you to know that I am a very difficult person to please and I only seek out the best. Well, let me say that we not only got the best, we got perfection! I want to get married all over again just to hear you perform. Keep on rocking and rolling and doing what you were all given a gift to do-ENTERTAIN!!!
All Our Best,

Dina and Ryan Capasso

You guys were the best!! We cannot even believe you were so good!! All of our guests were commenting on how the band made the wedding. Our parents were getting calls for days after! The way you interacted with the crowd and danced right along with us. We cannot thank you enough for your awesome performance and patience with us! Thanks again!!
