"Hi Both, It has been such a whirlwind since the wedding but we both wanted to say a huge thank you to both of you for singing at our wedding! Everyone absolutely loved you and it was such a lovely atmosphere. The only downside was we only caught your last song! A lot of people have been asking for your information, contact number, am I able to pass these on? Thank you so much again and so sorry it is so late. Adam and Becky."

"Hey Rich and Natalie, We’re sorry we didn’t get to thank you enough earlier but we want to do it now. You two were amazing! We are so thankful that everything went well and we couldn’t have dreamt of a better live music duo for our wedding! We also got amazing feedback from our family and friends complimenting you two and your amazing performance and kindness. Thank you guys, for making our wedding day so special with your presence! If we will host other parties in the future, you guys are going to be our number 1 musicians to call. So again. THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU. This day wouldn’t have been as beautiful as it was, without you! Sending you the warmest hugs from Lisbon and let us know if you’re ever in town to meet for a coffee! All the best, Leonie & Joe."

"Proxima Duo performed for an opening event at our art gallery in Festival Place, Basingstoke. A really engaging couple that listened to our brief, and gave us loads of ideas to shape their performance to suit our needs perfectly. On the day they set up in plenty of time with no fuss, leaving us time and energy to concentrate on all the things we needed to do, which was very reassuring. The performance itself was a 100% success, every one of our clients and guests commented on how great they were. Very professional musicians that look great together and sound amazing. We look forward to having them back again for future events."

"I just wanted to say how much we enjoyed your set on Celebrity Eclipse. Your amazing vocals stopped us in our tracks on the way to dinner. The live covers were better than some of the originals, great music."

"It is my great pleasure to highly recommend Natalie and Richard as an acoustic duo. They are highly talented and professional individuals who have created an engaging and versatile duo that is sure to connect with your guests. They played in many different venues throughout the ship and were highly successful with tailoring their sets to the vibe in each lounge. As a duo, they have a large and interesting repertoire and can play party sets as well as more chilled-out material. Frequently, they would have people up dancing in the lounges and could always be counted on to deliver a party when needed. They have a particular skill of writing very creative arrangements of pop music for their duo format. Natalie and Rich have a great image on stage and are very dedicated and professional individuals. They were always welcoming and engaging with our guests and you can certainly count on them to deliver a high-quality experience for yours!"
