Professional Network & Endorsements
Alex will do a great job for you!! He is a real musician. Alex's abilities are in a class above what you hear at most Ceremonies and Reception--you can really hear it when he plays. I highly recommend him. You will be very happy!
I have had the pleasure of working with Alex and was impressed by his level of professionalism and skill. He is reliable and a very gifted guitarist. He also has a very calming presence that would put any anxious bride at ease. It would be a tremendous honor to share the stage with him again.
As a wedding minister who has officiated over 700 weddings, I know something about the power of good music to make a ceremony soar! Having live music during the ceremony adds so much soul to the proceedings - if the music is of high quality and the performer is sensitive to the nuances of the ceremony script. Alex Guillen is one of the those superb musicians who is also a marvelous collaborator. He understands the phrasing of elements in a wedding and how music can call attention to certain moments, or be a bridge between sections. Whether you want just ceremony music or a full evening of classical, flamenco or folk, Alex is a true professional and a real joy to work with. I hope to be able to collaborate with him on many ceremonies in the future. I endorse him wholeheartedly! ~ Rev. Rebecca Armstrong
