Subject: Re: Thank you so much To: Eugene Matthias <info@themagicclub.com> Hi Eugene & Sheila Both you and Sheila were such a big help on our wedding day. You were both professional and kept everyone under control which is a difficult task when dealing with Asians! The guests enjoyed the moments of magic and Eugene brought life and entertainment to our evening by making it so much fun and exciting but also keeping good control over the night. It was a very hectic evening with lots of scheduled things to get through in the itinerary, however Eugene used his skills and experience to work with everyone to ensure it all ran smoothly and continually multi tasked throughout the event. We wouldn't have been able to have an event like this without Eugene and are ever so grateful to both him and Sheila. They were much better toastmasters than what we had at our previous event who were really abrupt. Even the guests noticed the difference you made, so thank you! Amir Subject: Re:Thanks
To: Eugene Matthias <info@themagicclub.com> Dear Eugene & Sheila, Thank you so much for making our day run so smoothly, for bringing humour and fun to all those special moments on our big day! We couldn't have asked for a better day. We are truly honoured to have had both Sheila and yourself as our Toastmasters for the day. I will have no hesitation in recommending you to other bride and grooms. I'm sure we will meet again soon! All the best, Mr & Mrs Ricky Patel 
Ricky & Sheena just before their entrance. Eugene had got all guests ready for a special surprise for the Bride & Groom. Subject: RE: Re Thank You
To: Eugene Matthias <info@themagicclub.com> Good Morning to you both. “Thank You!“ so much for looking after us on Ricky’s & Sheena’s wedding day, I have never had so much fun. Knowing YOU & Sheila were there taking the pressure off us all & ensuring that the guest were enjoying themselves & being entertained was fantastic (they all said how much fun your were). What can say about my speech, after such a built up from you, there was no way I was going to let you down. You will be pleased to know that many of our guests have asked us for your details (please do not forget my commission Mr 5% ) or you can always train me up as your business partner!!! As I said to you both on the night please feel free to drop in whenever you are in the area. Thank you so much for all your help and support on the day, it was fantastic. I have no hesitation in recommending you to other families. Vasant & Rekha Patel Subject: RE: Re Thanks.
To: Eugene Matthias <info@themagicclub.com> Dear Eugene & Sheila, Shree and I would like to say a huge thank you for all the help and amazing support you gave us throughout our wedding day. You were fantastic, even with all the organisation and preparation in place for our big day there were many problems and having you both as our toastmaster to sort things out made the day flow so well. I was in contact with Eugene even during my drive to the venue, to ensure everything was ready. Eugene had everything sorted. He had welcomed the Jaan and Brides side, had then in place and ready including the the Dohl's players and photographers. I really want to thank Eugene for organising an extra photo shoot (at very short notice) behind closed doors, unknown to our guests. I called Eugene at 5:00pm and he organised a route for us to sneak through the hotel back entrances and kitchens into the main hall. Another major problem was our cake knife was missing, Sheila sorted this out quietly behind the scenes. Your presence on the day was invaluable to us and truly made our day go off without a hitch. Thanks you so much again, Mr and Mrs Patel Subject: RE: Thank you
To: Eugene Matthias <info@themagicclub.com> Dear Eugene and Sheila, We would both like to pass on our most sincere thanks to you both for managing and hosting wedding daywith such thought and professionalism. You were the glue that held the day together. You instilled laughter and fun, and reacted quick to the changes we needed to make. The receiving line was such fun, and we have enjoyed watching it back on the video. The special touch of taking extra care of my elderly grandparents made their day. My grandma mentions you both every time I see her. You will be a truly memorable part of our wedding day and we would without reservation recommend you to other brides and grooms. Best wishes to you both, Liam and Catherine Mahoney |

Subject: THANK YOU! Hi Eugene & Sheila, Firstly Tanay and myself would like to thank you from our hearts for making our day not only very enjoyable but also highly successful. The way you organised and controlled so many guests with lots of fun and laughter, everyone really enjoyed the day. You were on hand for anything we needed and your ability to stagger certain aspects for our guests when needed was brilliant. You both went the extra mile with some of our younger guests performing a magic trick or two in order for them to smile for the photos. In which the younger kids are still talking about now. I would highly recommend you both to any of our friends and family... as you both ensured the smooth running of the day and that is priceless as a bride and groom for us not to have to worry about anything. Thank You once again you were amazing and we hope you enjoyed the day too. Kind Regards Stacey & Tanay From: davina <@hotmail.com>
