  • Dexter did a fantastic job at the Christening of our boat. The music was perfect and he was very professional. We would recommend him without hesitation. Greg -- Greg C, West Palm Beach, FL, 2/19/2008
  • Excellent - perfect choice for our Carribean Reception! -- Christin M, Hollywood, FL, 2/13/2008
  • Dexter's great steel drums performance was amazing!! Even though the bride and some members of the bridal party were a bit late to the wedding site, Dexter, very professionaly and timely was all set up and had the Caribbean environment going!! Just as he said he would!! It was a super surprised for everyone. Our dream of getting married at the Beach, with Dexter's drums in the stage, made it an unforgettable ceremony. Everyone loved his playing. He is very professional and accomodating. His suggestions were key to our wedding program. He suggested the order of events as he is VERY experienced. Our Beach Wedding Dream was made reality! Thank you Dexter!! -- Leonelly M, Dania Beach, FL, 12/22/2007
  • Dexter is truely a professional entertainer who fit perfect into our holiday tiki party. His selection of music was outstanding. Our guests were having such a great time, that we requested Dexter to stay and additional hour. Dexter was very accomidating with the booking of his services and followed up with phone calls to confirm everything. Dexter will be a fixture at all of parties in the future. I would highly recommend him to anyone who is thinking about this type of entertainment. -- Brian M, Deerfield Beach, FL, 12/8/2007
  • We were having a big party at our home - the band came early and set up. During their playing time, they talked to the guests, encouraged dancing, limbo and crowd participation - it was a great time for us & guests, much thanks to the band for their role in the party. The band's manager was responsive to my requests and always got back to me. I would highly recommend them and will use them again next year! -- Steve B, Boynton Beach, FL, 5/27/2007
  • Dexter was nothing less than SUPERB. He has a great personality that truly comes through in his music. He was the life of the party. I'd recommend him to anyone! -- Vanessa A, Coral Gables, FL, 5/26/2007
  • My wife and I booked Dexter for our beach wedding and we couldn't say enough how pleased we were. Dexter's friendly personality, professionalism and attitude were only outdone by his musical ability. We honeymooned in Aruba and were able to witness several other drummers while there. Dexters sound made a mockery of the other drummers we heard! We couldn't have been happier with the service and quality Dexter offered to us! -- Michael V, Marco Beach, FL, 5/4/2007
  • Very easy to work with. Plan on recommending him to others who are looking for a steel drummer. -- Maureen D, Palm Beach County, FL, 4/14/2007
  • Dexter did a fantastic Job! His performance far exceeded our expectations and we will be calling on him again! -- Roy K, Stuart, FL, 4/5/2007

  • Dexter was great. He kept the party going. It appeared that he was having as much fun as we were. He showed up on time and played all the right music. I would use him again. -- Scott G, Fort Lauderdale, FL, 3/15/2007
  • This was a big event for us, we had over 700 guest, and naturally we were nervous about it all coming together. Dexter and the rest of the members of Pan Paradise were awesome! They were all very professional and their music was just fantastic - it was enjoyed by everyone. We will definetly use Pan Paradise again for future events and will highly recommend them to others. Thank you all so much for helping to make our event such a success!! -- Madeline M, Fort Lauderdale, FL, 3/2/2007

  • The band was fantastic and everyone loved them! The selection of music for our party was commented on over and over by our guests. Everyone was asking "where did you find these guys??!" They were very professional and we will want them for our next big party. Thanks Guys for making this a special birthday for my husband and our friends. May God continue to Bless You! -- Vicki S, Lantana, FL, 11/18/2006
  • Dexter was very accomodating, flexible, professional, and put on an excellent performance. Everyone in attendance was very pleased with the entertainment and we even had dancing on the floating docks! Thank you Dexter for making our party great! -- Leah W, Fort Lauderdale, FL, 10/30/2006
  • Having a destination wedding I was very concerned about all the things that could go wrong (Will they show up,do they sound good,and so on) That was the biggest waste of my time! If you hire Pan Paradise do not be concerned nor burn up your time thinking about what could happen. Just send Dexter your info. of what you would like and he will take care of everything. When they start playing you will be in shock just how great they are. Everyone who attended our wedding was equally impressed with the magical sound they make. You will not go wrong to hire the band for any event that you are planning! -- Shawn S, Key Largo, FL, 10/21/2006
  • Dexter was an AMAZING pan player! If we had requests..he played them..brought all his own equipment..set up perfectly!! an amazing addition to our wedding reception. His sound was PERFECT! Anyone who has questions can personally contact me 303.995.7787 (jack) i am that satisfied!!! It is obvious Dexter has perfected the steel drum and has a complete music library everything from Buffett, to Motown....Thank you Dexter!!! -- Jack H, Sarasota, FL, 10/14/2006
  • My father's 70th surprise birthday was a total success. As I wanted, Dexter arrived prior to my father being there and had the party in full swing from beginning to end. I enjoyed him so much, my husband and I decided to pay for an extra hour. All the guests enjoyed Dexter's performance and he was very flexible as to what people wanted to hear. He is an artist and I will definitely use him again for future events. My father said he will never forget his 70th. -- Betty P, Miami, FL, 9/2/2006

  • Very talented, people enjoyed the music. Not many people danced, I was wondering if he could of tried to engage them. Regardless, Dexter is a super nice person and very professional! -- Jackie K, Key Biscayne, FL, 12/28/2005

  • There was a little bit of confusion in the beginning but once everything got figured out the band was fantastic! The band was very friendly and even let some of our quests play the drums. The music was great and really made the reception! Thanks, Sarah and Brad -- Sarah S, Vero Beach, FL, 7/21/2006
  • The performance fit well with the theme of the Party. Happy to have selected Pan Paradise. They arrived punctually and worked hard the whole night. -- John C, Deerfield Beach, FL, 9/1/2007
  • We are very happy Donnel and Mark played at our party. -- Ron T, Miami, FL, 4/28/2007
  • Thank you Dexter!!! We had a great time!!!!!!! -- Mary Beth F, Deerfield Beach, FL, 11/25/2011
  • Arrived on time, ready to go when guests began arriving. Music, including several Disney tunes we requested, was wonderful. Did not let us know when they were taking a break so we had to scramble to get our speakers (bride and groom, host) up on stage when we realized a recording was playing and it was our turn to make announcements. I would highly recommend them for their musical talent but do not expect much in the way of guest interaction or "dj"ing". -- Carole E, Vero Beach, FL, 11/10/2011
