Pittman Wedding - 11.07.25

Joe was absolutely wonderful. We had wanted to have something unique for our cocktail hour, especially to pair it with the sunset on Clearwater Beach. Joe did an outstanding job and set the scene with his steel drums during our cocktail hour. It sounded so beautiful and we received so many compliments about the atmosphere and vibe with having the steel drums. Joe was very helpful and had great communication. We are so thankful and grateful to have had him with us on our special day. Thank you so much Joe - The Pittmans
