Absolutely beautiful service

Bob was truly a pleasure to work with and have be apart of our special day. He played for our ceremony and did a great job. The music was beautiful and very well played. I didn't have many song suggestions, and Bob did a great job helping pick out songs and meeting the expectations I wanted! I would highly recommend him! Very affordable and great costumer service! I would definitely use him again for other events.

Bob provided the music and microphone equipment for our outdoor wedding ceremony. He was easy to work with and always promptly responded to my contacts with him. He was very professional and we were happy to have him as a part of our day. We would definitely recommend him!

We hired Bob fairly last minute to perform our ceremony music at our outdoor wedding at the Wild Eagle Lodge and we couldn't have been happier with the decision.

First I must talk about how flexible Bob was. I am a musician and both of us are huge music fans so naturally our wedding was entirely music-themed. This meant that the poor guy we hired to do our ceremony music wasn't going to get off easy with "Air" or "Canon in D"...nearly every song we requested throughout the ceremony he had never heard of much less played. But after sending him the original tracks and having a few phone calls to discuss arrangement, I was confident that Bob was going to deliver and he didn't disappoint. The ceremony music was a hit and I heard many compliments about it all night long.

Here's another example of his flexibility...due to the short-notice the violinist that Bob normally plays with was unable to perform. My wife really wanted the violin to carry the melody of the music we had chosen for the ceremony so Bob searched far and wide to secure a violinist for the event and eventually found one and rehearsed with her to make sure it was a good fit. He very easily could've just said "sorry" as we'd already booked him for the event but he went the extra mile to make sure we got what we wanted.

Bob and his violinist were very professional and dressed appropriately. Bob travels with his own PA system that allowed everybody to hear the music even in an outdoor environment.

Last, but certainly not least in the grand scheme of wedding planning, Bob was VERY affordable compared to others that we contacted in the area.

If you're looking for a classical guitarist with or without accompaniment for your wedding ceremony, Bob Shebesta is your man!

Amazing job! We had very specific requests when it came to the arrangement. Living 5 hours away, Bob willingly recorded the arrangements and sent them to me via email. Day of event was a little colder then preferred, but Bob played amazingly! Even continued to play during difficulty with Unity candle. Wish all our vendors handled their roles as well as Bob!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
