TESTIMONIALS
Here’s what Female Mariachi Band – Las Adelitas’ clients said:
“Las Adelitas played at my wife and I’s wedding in Liverpool this summer, and they were incredible! My family comes from Mexico and many of them were flying into the UK for our wedding, so it was important for me to include some of my culture at our wedding reception with an authentic mariachi, and Las Adelitas were just that. When my wife and I walked into our wedding reception we entered in to one of my favorite tunes and I will never forget it. A massive thank you to all the ladies for making the trek up to Liverpool and making our day so special. We will always remember it.”
