An Amazing Guitarist!

We had a small and intimate wedding by the lake and we couldn't have been happier with our choice of Peter as our guitarist for our ceremony and cocktail hour. He is a talented guitarist, a kind person and very professional. The ambiance his gentle guitar playing brought was exactly what we wanted for our special day, and we are so happy we chose this route rather than a DJ. We highly recommend choosing Peter if you are looking for a guitarist for your wedding.

Incredible

Peter is a gifted and talented musician. He played classic guitar for our ceremony and cocktail hour. His music walking down the aisle was one of the highlights of my day and it made our ceremony so special and emotional. Our guests raved about his performance. We also found his pricing to be very reasonable. He was very responsive and helpful in selecting music. Highly recommend! You will not regret hiring Peter.

Wedding Guitarist!

Peter did an amazing job performing dg during our ceremony and cocktail hour. We had a few special requests for him to play with my cousin while she sand during the ceremony. Peter was more than willing to work with us and even came a day before the wedding to rehearse with my cousin. Our guests had wonderful things to say about Peters cocktail hour performance. Will definitely recommend!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
