Amazing experience

Short and to the point, we would have no hesitation recommending Duo Cordoba for any event!
We hired them to play at our wedding, it was such a treat to have live music for our special day. They are great musicians and had an extensive repertoire. They also offered to learn any songs that we wanted to have played at the wedding, which we thought was a very nice thing to do. They were very accommodating and professional. We were forced to postpone our wedding twice from 2020-2021 then again from 2021-2022, both times there was no problem with the change. We felt that the quality for the the price was unbeatable. Again they were amazing and can't wait for an excuse to hire them again!

The special touch to a romantic ceremony

We hired Duo Cordoba for our ceremony. Emilie and her colleague were simply wonderful. The communication was easy and fast from the beginning, and Emilie was detailed and thorough. They already had a great selection of songs available and allowed us to add a few special requests. Although we only heard a few songs during the ceremony itself (which were absolutely amazing), our guests only had good feedback. We had a winter wedding, in a beautiful romantic venue and they were the cherry on top to make the ceremony absolutely perfect. Mille fois merci à vous deux !

Plus que parfaites!

Elles étaient simplement parfaites! Un plus à notre cérémonie, avec un accord qui nous a laissé sans mot et les larmes aux yeux. Une présence appréciée, que je recommande à tous et que je l'espère plusieurs sauront en profiter autant que nous!

Duo Córdoba helped make my wedding reception everything I could have hoped for

I was amazed how flexible they were in terms of song request and the schedule. Each time we spoke on the phone or by email it was always super friendly, and they were very understanding when changes needed to happen. When it came time for the wedding reception, the only words that came to mind was "absolutely breathtaking".

For our wedding reception, we wanted a brunch wedding that didn't involve dancing, apart from the bride & groom and father & daughter dance. The set list and overall music quality was just perfect! Every guest that came to the wedding, including the owner of the restaurant, was in awe and I am not joking! The songs were well organized and never felt out of place.
I would 100% refer them for any occasion.

Thank you for making my wedding day special!
