Highly recommend David Ross!!!!

We cannot recommend David highly enough! The music he and his team played for our wedding was absolutely beautiful and exactly what we had envisioned. We received so many compliments from our guests, who all commented on how wonderful the music was throughout the day.

From the very beginning of the planning process to the very end of our wedding day, he was an absolute pleasure to work with—professional, responsive, kind, and incredibly talented. He helped create the perfect atmosphere and made our ceremony feel even more special.

Thank you so much for everything! We are so grateful for your talent and dedication. If you’re looking for a wedding musician, look no further. Highly, highly, highly recommended! 5 stars across the board!!!

Music in Dreamland

David’s guitar playing truly set the tone for our special day. He was very easy to talk to, prompt with his responses regarding communication and just a pleasure to work with. He played the songs that we requested so beautifully. We had a very intimate wedding with so many of our guests complimenting his guitar playing. We knew we made the right choice when we chose David, because I can’t imagine having anyone else but him providing the music.

Being a musician myself really made me appreciate David’s skill at guitar. The time flew by with his music making for a beautiful day we will never forget.

Wonderful experience !

David was an absolute pleasure to work with. He played for our ceremony and cocktail hour and helped us to craft a set of songs that fit our vision for the day. He was responsive in the lead-up to the wedding and punctual on the day-of. He was extremely professional and we felt like we were in good hands from start to finish. He also provided the audio set-up for our officiant (who was a friend) and our vows, all of which worked seamlessly. The music was all lovely and got many compliments from our guests!

One of our best decisions!!!

David was phenomenal! He was so easy to communicate with prior & took all of our song requests. His music was so beautiful and was the perfect touch for our outside ceremony and cocktail hour. I would recommend him to anybody looking to have live music at their wedding!

Amazing musician

Our favorite wedding decision was having David Ross for our cocktail hour and ceremony music. Hiring him was simple, and communication was seamless. He has a giant fantastic repertoire of songs and great taste in setting the right mood. The songs were perfect ambiance for welcoming our guests, but we noticed and enjoyed that he included our special songs. It honestly felt like Bridgerton - classy and really fun! Another amazing perk was that he provided the mics and sound for the ceremony, and jumped in to make sure we had a mic during our vows!! Everything he did was fantastic, I wish I had another event to hire him again!

Dream come true

All of the stress of the last minute details to pull off a destination wedding melted away the moment David began playing. He didn't demand attention or require applause to respond to, and control the mood of, a most important event in our family's lives. During the cocktail hour, his playing was sublime and complemented the venue, the group dynamics, and the desires of the bride and groom. He provided us with a delightful rendition of the soundtracks of our lives. As the sole musician for the ceremony, he made us all cry coming, and laugh going. He was perfect. I cannot recommend him highly enough.

Church Landing Wedding

David was very professional and responsive from the start of our planning process. We booked him and Tara as our guitarist/violinist duo and it could not have gone better. David is very flexible and accommodated specific songs we wanted played during our ceremony and cocktail. Some of the songs were favorites of my parents who have passed, so hearing them played so beautifully was particularly special for me.

We had a short list of songs we liked from his playlist and songs we saw him perform on his Instagram. He was flexible and played anything we liked, but also played songs he knew would sound great with both the guitar and violin. Our guests were so happy and impressed, as were we. We received a lot of feedback about how David and Tara play so well and really elevated the entire wedding. They really did help to make our special day even better. One small but helpful detail is David also provides his own sound system and mic set up, which we found really helpful given our wedding was outdoors on a breezy day. It was nice not to have to yell in order to be heard.

We would recommend David without a doubt.

Best Professional Guitarist

We hired David to perform at a morning brunch following a loud and wild wedding the night before. I knew he was an excellent musician, having heard him play Bach's Prelude for Cello before hiring him. But he outdid even that at our event. Our guests mingled and talked for three hours with David's sweet guitar softly filling the space . . . . It was magical. https://youtu.be/IErNJzXAs_U?si=EepCAndbhaLRhCDI for the Bach Prelude. Bravo, David. And thank you.

The perfect song

David was the perfect musician for our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour. He was great to work with, very responsive and professional, and even learned a new song for the bride to walk down the isle to. I would recommend him to any friends and family of mine who are getting married in the Northeast and wouldn't hesitate to reach out to him again for future events of my own.

Perfect for our event!

David was wonderful to work with throughout the entire process-from booking to the event. My husband and I really wanted live music for our day, and this suited us perfectly. Our guests really enjoyed the music during our cocktail hour after the ceremony. I highly recommend David for any event!
