We had Josh and Colette play for our civil wedding and party, and to say they were the life of it would be the understatement! Josh started at the civil on the piano. We had left much of the song choice to him after he understood our vibe/style and he didn't fail to deliver. He played with such passion which came across so fluently, and he despite being so engrossed in the music was able to be so aware of all cues around him, ensuring the event flowed smoothly. At the garden part Josh was joined by Colette. Again the perfect repertoire was selected, and they guided guests through a journey, increasing the hype throughout. Naturally the performance was flawless, but the way they played the right song at the right time to really build the atmosphere is what made it super special. Couldn't recommend them more!!
