Music was beautiful!!!!

We can’t thank Ben enough for the wonderful music he provided for our wedding ceremony at City Hall. There is no doubt in my mind that he is one of the best at what he does...all of our guests kept talking about how beautiful the whole thing was and how Ben’s string duo was the perfect touch!

We knew as soon as we found Ben that we were interested in his services. His response time to questions was immediate, kept us in the loop on deadlines, payments, etc., guided us on music selection choices, and made us feel so at ease throughout the whole process.

I recommend Ben to any couple getting married in the Bay Area, as well as any couple specifically getting married at City Hall. He knows that place so well, and we had no trouble with the city’s strict vendor requirements for the building. Ben had it all taken care of!! I would use him again in a heartbeat!!!

I had the pleasure of shooting a wedding while Beth played gorgeous music on her cello. There is nothing like live strings and Beth is an accomplished artist so everyone had goosebumps! At this particular wedding, Beth had to compete with a car alarm just 30 feet away and she never missed a note. If you want to create a classic and warm atmosphere at your wedding, Beth would be a fantastic soundtrack.
