Review Centre: Accordion Players

"Euro Café Duo were invited to entertain guests at my 80th birthday event held at the beautiful Rockport Barn venue at Rockport, Ontario on June 8, 2024. I had asked for a blend of nostalgic easy-listening and European/Parisian music as social-background and then more watchable treatments. Andrea and Edward delightfully exceeded my expectation. Our mixed age gathering thoroughly enjoyed the music and the duo’s showmanship. My wife and I loved dancing to some of our requests such as, La Vie en rose and As Time Goes By. Thank you, Andrea and Ted, for adding such a magical touch to my special day. "

"Wow! Mike really had the beautiful Parisian atmosphere we were looking for. As we came out of the church, we had him walk around playing amongst our guests while we drank champagne!"

"We had Aleksei Chebeliuk play the accordion for my brother’s wedding in Charlotte, and he was incredible. He played a great mix of songs that kept everyone smiling and added such a unique, fun energy to the day. Aleksei is a true professional and very talented—he made the atmosphere feel extra special. If you want a great musician for your event, I highly recommend him!"

"Kevin was absolutely incredible - I can’t recommend him highly enough. From start to finish, his communication was outstanding. He was thoughtful, responsive, and truly went above and beyond to make the moment perfect. He even picked up flowers and prosecco before we arrived to help keep the moment a surprise and coordinated seamlessly with my photographer so everything came together effortlessly. As for the music - it was nothing short of beautiful. His playing was masterful and added such a special, emotional layer to the proposal. It genuinely made the moment unforgettable. Kevin’s attention to detail and care for the experience set him apart. He didn’t just play music, he helped create a memory we’ll cherish forever. We’ll absolutely be working with him again for our wedding, and I couldn’t recommend him more highly."

"Billy Gumbo is one of a kind musician, he surprised us with his versatility and technical musicianship. As an international show he amazed us with his command of a variety of skills and songs. French, Italian, German, Polish, Russian, Irish and even Greek, it was a wonderful 2-hour performance that sent our hearts aglow. Well done sir!"

"Carla, Dino, Guglielmo, and Angelo of Barbera & Champagne performed at my wedding in June 2025, and I truly couldn’t have asked for a more perfect experience. From the very beginning, communication and coordination with Carla was seamless. She was warm, responsive, and incredibly professional. Her voice is absolutely stunning, and the entire quartet brought such vibrant energy to the celebration. Their performance of romantic classics in English, Italian, Spanish, and French added an elegant, heartfelt touch that made our wedding feel like a dream. So many of our guests commented on how unforgettable the music was. Grazie mille to Barbera & Champagne for making our special day even more memorable!"

Thank you so much Nicole for having us at your wedding and for your very kind words about our performance! We had a great time too, the medieval Abbey was incredibly fascinating and everything in the place expressed a positive energy. Our best wishes to you and your husband!

"I had the best time with the Barn Buskers celebrating my 50th birthday. From the minute I booked them to the moment they had to leave they were brilliant. The youngest guest was 2, the oldest was 85 and everybody said what a fantastic time they had. Knees hurt but cheeks hurt more from all the smiling and laughing. The caller did extraordinarily well keeping us all together. Note to self.....must learn left from right 😂😂 If you are looking for some talented musicians with a flare to keep the party going, at a pace that suits your needs, then look no further. I believe a friend has booked them for their wedding next year, and I for one can't wait to do it all again 🩷 Huge thank you to Judy and co. Truly a most memorable day 🩷🥳"

"First of all, I want to say a huge thank you to the most down-to-earth team ever! My fiancé used this service for our engagement, and it couldn’t have been more perfect. Kevin played the violin so beautifully — my fiancé asked him to perform a Bollywood classic, “Tum Hi Ho,” which he had never played before, but he absolutely smashed it! 🎻 Nadiia is an incredible photographer and a true perfectionist. She captured the proposal so beautifully and even took some raw footage so we could relive the moment before the full photoshoot came through. The photos are amazing — she took her time, never rushed, and made sure every shot was perfect. Together, they make an amazing team and are such a pleasure to be around. Both Kevin and Nadiia are such kind, genuine people who made everything feel so natural and easy. My fiancé proposed while we were on holiday and hadn’t met them beforehand, but they made him feel completely at ease. He said they were the only people he spoke to during planning who had a personal touch and truly listened to what he wanted — helping him create the most perfect proposal. They even surprised us with cupcakes afterwards! "
