Made our wedding perfect!

Hector is a very talented musician and overall great person! We had a destination wedding in San Juan and worked with him for several weeks over text and email. He was always professional and responsive. He gave us time and space to make sure we chose the right music. He was reliable and early to our event. When we had unexpected rain at our wedding, he was open to multiple options to still be able to play music and keep the celebration going! He was wonderful to work with and we recommend him for your next celebration! Thank you Hector!

A night by the ocean

We had a magical night by the beach.
The beach, ocean, palms, fire, Hector’s guitar notes and the two of us. It was an unforgettable night for us.
It was so easy to hire Hector, i just googled his name and decided to contact him via instagram, and then i just followed the process, he will guide you and reply back on time.
Thank you for the amazing memories Hector.

Highly Recommend the Very Talented Hector Vazquez Gil

Hector is a great choice for your event, as he is well-versed in several musical styles and is an all-around talented musician. I am a guitar player myself so I had high standards for my wedding, and Hector did not disappoint in any way! Aside from his superb talent as a musician, he was always highly professional and responsive, making it very easy to coordinate details and be confident that everything was sorted out. I could not be any happier with him.

The most special ceremony

Hector was truly incredible to work with. Communication back and forth over email was so easy and he was extremely responsive. He made selecting our ceremony music such a simple process and provided us recommendations while also offering to do custom arrangements of songs he didn’t already have. Hector wound up playing the most beautiful acoustic arrangement of lover by Taylor swift for us for our processional and it was so perfect. The ceremony music was magical and he really set the tone with his cocktail hour music for us as well. All of our guests loved it. Hector wound up emailing us the sheet music he arranged for lover and dedicated it to my husband and I. We plan to frame it and hang it in the new home we bought together. It was the most thoughtful and personalized touch. We can’t thank Hector enough for making our ceremony so beautiful and really setting the tone for our cocktail hour! If you are looking for live music for your wedding - look no further!!

He is the best!

A live ceremony musician is the most perfect addition to your wedding. Hearing his music while all the wonderful chaos of your wedding is going on was very calming. He is very responsive and professional. Always there when you need to ask a question and even gives recommendations. I enjoyed working with him and am so grateful he played at my wedding. He is very talented!

Don't think twice!

We hired Hector to play acoustic guitar during our ceremony and cocktail hour. He wildly exceeded expectations and is an incredible talent. He is not only a master of his craft but also understands how to read the room and the moment to provide the perfect ambiance for the setting. He even was able to arrange a few complicated songs that we wanted for our processional and recessional. Our ceremony would not have been complete without him!

Great Musician and Communication

Highly recommend Hector. I planned a proposal for my now fiancé and Hector helped me pull it off in style. He was able to discreetly find the location that I advised and played a beautiful repertoire of music while maintaining the perfect ambiance.
