Julian was so professional, helpful, and flexible in helping plan the music for my wedding. I was hoping for a mix of classical, Spanish, and jazz, and he came through with flying colors. Working with Julian was effortless, and he really made the day absolutely perfect.

Julian was the right choice for our outdoors wedding. Great music and set the perfect tone for our simple garden wedding.

Julian was our musician for both the wedding ceremony and the reception afterwards. He was a pleasure to work with and also sounded great!

We had an initial consultation where we worked out what types of music we wanted to hear at the reception and what songs should be played during the processionals and recessional. We had some ideas for what we wanted played but didn't know if they would work out with guitar. Thankfully, Julian was able to make those pieces work and even provided other suggestions for similar types of songs for other parts of the ceremony and reception.

On the day of the wedding, Julian was very professional. He worked with the venue staff to get set up and started right on time. Of course, the music was perfect as well. The only regret that we have is that we had to step out for a while to do some photos so we were not able to enjoy more of his music!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.

Julian is a great musician! I had the opportunity to work together on a wedding with him at Kerry Park in Seattle. With his amazing guitar music, the ambiance and view the ceremony turned out PERFECT!!! I would love to work with him in the future again, and will highly recommend him to all of my brides!
