Real Housewives of Potomac
Serenading Candiace & Chris Bassett
When Real Housewives of Potomac star Candiace Dillard Bassett wanted someone to serenade her and husband Chris Bassett during their Second Dance, she called Jerel.
"Having talented friends has its perks — Jerel was present and accounted for to serenade us during our Second Dance."

The Keepsake
Your Song, On Vinyl
Your Signature Song, cut to vinyl and pressed as a record — one for you, one for each set of parents. Custom label with your names, your date, your venue, and a printed booklet with your lyrics and the story of how the song was written.
It arrives in a presentation box with a turntable, so it isn't something you frame — it's something you play.
On your first anniversary. On your tenth. On a Sunday morning years from now when one of you decides the house is too quiet.
