  1. Gernadette G.

    5.0


    Our wedding venue had a piano and we immediately knew we wanted to utilize it. I found Ocdamia while searching online and so glad I did. Having a pianist play at our wedding just added that extra touch of elegance and class. Working with Margie was so easy and she was so responsive to emails. I would definitely hire them again and I highly recommend hiring them for any event.
