The main text is in a mix of white and gold, with the quote: "So hard to describe how fantastic Nick was for our wedding. Considering it was just our children, grandchildren and a few sibling... he catered to every age and genre imaginable. From our entrance song, the kids dance party (which was improvised on the spot) and then the adults dance party, he exceeded all of our expectations! Everyone kept commenting on how fabulous and talented he was. Thanks Nick for helping make our wedding everything we had dreamed it could be!!" The initials "NJ" are at the bottom in gold, with decorative lines above and below.
