Brandt was amazing!!

Brandt was an incredible guitarist for our wedding day! He was recommended by our DJ RedShoe and he did not disappoint. We spoke on the phone several times before the wedding so that he could play some sample songs for my entrance, and he was so patient and kind. All of our guests complimented his music, and the percussionist he brought during cocktail hour was amazing as well! Thank you Brandt for making our wedding day so special.

Brandt, expert at romantic vibes

Brandt was an absolutely stellar provider to work with, through and through. His brand drew us in, his professionalism sealed the deal, and his music and expertise created the perfect romantic vibe at our wedding. Our special day was in San Diego with a backdrop of beach and sunset, and Brandt breathed beautiful life & music into the whole ceremony and cocktail hour. He discussed our wants beforehand, brought his own ideas, and and brought our vision to life. Our guests kept asking about him. We cannot thank him enough.

Fabulous Musician!

Brandt is very talented and extremely nice. He was a pleasure to work with and very professional. Everyone loved him! He created a personalized experience that was wonderful. Not only is he an incredible musician, he made everything easy, from picking the music to how he setup so the sound would be great. So glad our wedding coordinator recommended him!!

He makes the guitar sing

I highly recommend Brandt. He talked to us before the event to get a sense of what we wanted and made recommendations based on our feedback. Also, he didn't just show up and play. He checked out the venue and set up everything so my guests would have the best musical experience possible. My guests were so impressed with his talent. I had loads of positive feedback. One guest commented that "he made the guitar sing". He is also super friendly and easy to work with. Weddings can be stressful, but he took care of everything, I really felt like I could depend on him. I can't remember exactly what happened, but I recall there was something that came up, and he made a quick pivot to fix the issue. I think the best way to explain it is that we hired him to play at our wedding and reception. What we got was someone who really cared about making the music add to our special day. That is more than just showing up and playing.

Wonderful!

From the day we first contacted Brandt, he was extremely professional and a delight to work with. He was flexible with our plans throughout the process and the day of our wedding. He sent us options of cover songs we asked for, playlists suggestions and made us feel extremely assured of everything. Our guests were very impressed with him and he was the perfect acoustic guitarist for our special day!

Magical and Romantic!

Brandt is AMAZING! From day one we knew we had found a gem and we were not going to be disappointed. He was so professional and caring. He truly made us feel that our wedding was just as much his experience as it was ours. From his constant contact and communication to his lovely music and inspiration. Then the BIG day came and so did he! He made the ceremony magical and romantic! Just what we wanted. Then he warmed the hearts of our guests during the cocktail hour! Brandt! You are truly a beautiful soul and we we’re blessed to have you! Thank you again and again! I can’t wait until our next event. Until then!

Amazing and talented musician!

From the first time I requested a quote until the day after my wedding Brandt was incredibly responsive with all of his communication, which for me was greatly appreciated. He spends as much time as you need to talk you through the vision he has for your event, and also takes your ideas and thoughts and mixes them with his own to provide a beautiful musical experience. Brandt played guitar and also brought a percussionist for our wedding cocktail hour and then also played music for our procession down the aisle. Everything he did was truly amazing and I could see how much care he took in his work and providing the best experience he possibly could. i would recommend Brandt to anyone who is wanting a talented musician for an event.
