Fantastic duo!

Martin was very communicative and helpful to me starting the first time I reached out to him through the day of our wedding. Martin and Hector made our wedding ceremony so special and even learned two special songs for us. They executed the ceremony timing perfectly. They set up sound systems in two separate rooms for us (ceremony and cocktail hour) and got the logistics down perfectly. They made our cocktail hour unforgettable. We got so many compliments about their performance and about them in general from our guests. They are both very nice and cool. We only wish we got to hang out with them more!

Martin should be your first choice for a guitarist!

Martin Metzger is truly a gem. His diverse portfolio provided us with a wonderful selection of songs for our ceremony. I had a special song in mind to walk down the aisle to, and Martin learned it just for us, making our moment personalized and heartfelt. Meeting him via video chat beforehand was a delightful experience. His kind and professional demeanor immediately put us at ease.

One standout aspect of our interaction with Martin was his thoughtfulness towards our other musician. He went above and beyond by providing sheet music and even offered to rehearse with them.

Overall, working with Martin was a pleasure. His passion for what he does shined, and his dedication to making our day special was evident throughout our time together.

We are incredibly grateful to have had Martin Metzger as part of our wedding day. If given the chance, we would choose him again without hesitation. Thank you, Martin, for adding your heart to our special day!
