Ocean Drive were the perfect choice for our evening reception! They were incredibly easy to communicate with leading up to the day, which made the planning stress-free. On the night, they were absolute stars, playing all of our song choices and happily taking requests from our guests. The energy they brought really made the evening and had the dance floor full all night We received so many compliments on the music. We would definitely recommend them to anyone.

Charlotte & Darryl played at our Reunion party and we could not have been more impressed with them. They arrived early for sound checks and set ups and were so flexible throughout the day. They sounded incredible and their set-up is so professional. We thoroughly enjoyed having them at our event and would recommend them. Thank you to Charlotte & Darryl for making our party so memorable!

We booked Charlotte & Darryl for our wedding on the 7th August and they were amazing from start to finish! From our initial phone call, we knew that they totally understood what we were looking for and were able to advise us on what they know has worked in the past as well as delivering some personalised requests that we asked for.Their voices and their song choices were amazing and they created the perfect atmosphere, and so many of our guests commented on how amazing they were. Thank you so much to both of you for going above and beyond to make our day so unforgettable! We would 100% recommend anyone looking for wedding musicians to book you! Jess and Joe x

We had Charlotte & Darryl singing at our drinks reception at our wedding. They were incredible from start to finish! From playing a set that we chose, to getting every single one of our guests up and dancing. Their communication is brilliant and their choice of songs is just fabulous. Thank you so much again, we couldn’t recommend these two more! ☺️

Charlotte and Darryl were absolutely brilliant at our wedding, performing for our welcome drinks and wedding breakfast. We can't say thank you enough! You were very professional throughout the process, brought amazing vibes and atmosphere to our wedding and made such a difference to the day, so pleased you were able to perform for us. You were very relaxed and friendly and provided the perfect soundtrack to our wedding. The song selection was great, everyone was having a great time up and dancing and singing along. All our guests have given lots of compliments for you and said how great you were. Thank you so much! Eleanor and Luca

Charlotte & Darryl played a set for Day 2 of our wedding, they were a reasonably late in the process booking for us, and it's one of the best decisions we made!  They were absolutely fantastic, not only with incredible voices and talent, but just so much fun to have at the event, and all our guests, like us, loved them.    We only wish we had booked them for longer - evidenced by chants of "one more song!" more than once, which they handled very graciously!   Brilliant set list, lovely pair, know how to make a party a party.  If you're thinking of booking them - do it!
