Great personality and song selections!
My mom found John through a friend that works with him. He brought his assortment of very cool guitars and entertained at my Chinese Wedding feast. My husband and father enjoyed a lot of the classics that he played which is a tall order because they’re both very picky about music. We asked for some classic Greek music since they are John’s specialty and were extremely happy with his song selection which we left up to him.

Provided the perfect vibe for our wedding
When my soloist told me I had an awesome guitarist I knew everything would be perfect! The soloist was able to practice with John over the phone since they were in different states and they ran through the song before the actual ceremony. I had a beach wedding and the guitar was perfect for this venue. He played Bossa Nova which goes well with the beach. Be decisive about what you want and John will get the job done beautifully!

John did a fantastic job at our March 7 2010 wedding in St. Petersburg! We had him play during our reception. His prices were reasonable and he was very friendly and professional to work with. We didn't want the typical DJ reception and just wanted some nice music for our reception. He was wonderful! He even took requests from guests. I think having a live musician just adds a more personal, intimate touch. I think he would be great also for a ceremony or cocktail reception.
