Perfect classical guitar for a wedding
Excellent Musician
Incredible Guitarist!
John has a great selection of songs but is willing to learn new ones if given enough time. Thankfully, one of the songs I was considering (Taylor Swift's "Lover") was already on his list of songs. He also condensed the song when I walked down the aisle since it's a lengthier song.
My husband and I did a first look with private vows before the ceremony, and John's music was the perfect background soundtrack. It felt like we were in a romantic movie.
We are so thankful for John's talent and flexibility! He really helped set the tone for the ceremony. :)
