Dreamy Ceremony Music!

Justin was amazing to work with! We hired him about a couple of months before our big day. We were so happy he was available and live music was the perfect touch for our ceremony. We hired him to do pre-ceremony & ceremony music. We let him know some of the music & genres that we liked and he even learned some songs that we wanted for the ceremony itself. He played Ho Hey by Lumineers, Here Comes the Sun by the Beatles and Safe & Sound by Capital Cities and it was absolutely beautiful. We are so happy we hired Justin to add that special touch to our wedding!

Justin was a pleasure to work with! We had him play the music for our ceremony at a vineyard wedding, and his sound fit perfectly with the setting. Justin was very flexible with the music selections - when I chose two songs for the processional and recessional that he did not know, he was more than willing to learn them and he played them beautifully. He also has a wonderful repertoire that he can draw on if you don't want to choose specific songs. I only wish I had been around to hear more before the ceremony started!
