  • Brea & Asthaar

    "Tika is an incredible singer and musician and she was absolutely the heart of our wedding. The whole wedding stayed on the dance floor from 5pm until finish and this had a lot to do with Tika’s skills, versatility and ability to read a crowd. We also loved the time and dedication Tika provided us in the lead up to the wedding, working with us to create a set list and assisting us with any other questions we had. Could not recommend Tika enough for your wedding or event, especially if you want your dance floor to be fire."
