Delicious! We hired Art for our wedding and all our guests were delighted with such an angelical music
Danny F.
I hired the Ocdamia Strings (Quartet) for my Son’s wedding. They were fantastic! They brought such an ambiance to the event. Our guests were so impressed by the beautiful music they provided and they were dressed for the occasion as well. Art was on time and organized. The only downside is that the wedding was over in a flash. I know they had no control over that. Margie was very helpful and a pleasure to work with. I highly recommend them!
Chandler O.
Thank you so so so much again, and thank your husband (Art Ocdamia) for us! He was incredible and made our day so magical!

It was a pleasure to work with Ocdamia Strings for our wedding. We hired Margie’s husband Art to perform as a cellist and he was fantastic! I requested a special song for my walk down the aisle and it was not part of their repertoire so they recorded it just for me and sent me a sample before agreeing to it. It was exactly what I wanted. Margie is great with communication and very professional. I highly recommend Ocdamia Strings for any event!
