Wedding reception performance
Michael and his team did an amazing job!!!! It was loud, fun and exciting! Our guests loved it and are still talking about it!! The lions were beautiful and bright, matched our wedding colour schemes exactly! Incorporating these lion dancers in the wedding was the best plan ever!

Dedicated and committed team
I requested a lion dance performance the morning of the event and Sifu Mike was able to gather an entire team within an hour. It was not only last minute, but also the performers' last day of summer holidays. It shows how committed and dedicated the team members were.

Great experience at our wedding!
Michael was very helpful over the phone in helping explain details of the lion dancers, coordinating times, and following up to confirm details.
Michael and his team were a bit delayed out to our out-of-town wedding, but the guests quickly forgot about this when the lion dancers and drummers showed up. We got comments from many guests who said they thoroughly enjoyed the performance, that it was a once-in-a-lifetime unique experience, and were amazed at how professional the dancers were!
For my wife and I, we were very pleased at how the dancers were able to perform in a slightly smaller space than initially anticipated due to the weather , and were happy to be able to incorporate aspects of Chinese culture to the wedding.
Overall, everyone had a great time and we would definitely recommend Michael and the Hong De Cultural Association Lion Dancers to anyone, just be sure to book quickly because they are one of the best!
Sincerely,
Frankie and Meghan
