Stephen was the best addition to our wedding celebration!

We hired Stephen to play at our small wedding celebration at The Laundry Room in Fenton, MI. The entire experience was extremely positive! Stephen responded to every email quickly. He was very accommodating to all our requests and even learned some new songs at our request. He arrived at the venue early for set-up and was ready to perform a fantastic set for our guests! We received countless compliments from our guests on how great he was! He even took the time to chat with some of our friends and family. He was absolutely fantastic and a perfect addition to our celebration. We are hoping to work with Stephen again for future events. Thank you Stephen for making our wedding such a special day!

Fantastic!

Stephen Michael was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding. From the moment we first reached out to him, he was very responsive and easy to communicate with. On the day of the wedding, Stephen arrived early and was ready to go well before the ceremony started. His performance during the ceremony was excellent. He brought the Jack Johnson vibe we were looking for.
Stephen sent us his whole repertoire in an easy click and submit type survey and said to add any songs we wanted that weren't on his list, so we suggested a lot of songs thinking he could choose a handful to learn, but he learned ALL of them!
Overall, we couldn't have asked for a better performer for our wedding. Stephen's talent and professionalism truly made our day special, and we would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a talented and reliable musician. Thank you, Stephen!

Still memorable years later

We hired Stephen Michael for our wedding at The Vault in 2019 and I couldn't be happier with the experience.
He arrived early and setup quickly. Not only punctual, but was amicable, friendly, and a pleasure to talk to. He even spent some time chatting with my family and friends after he was packed up, who all said they enjoyed meeting him.
He was quick in responding to emails and texts. Once it came to picking music, Stephen sent us his repertoire - a simply click and submit list - which made it very convenient and encouraged us to make as many requests as we like. And when it came to the actual performance, Stephen did not disappoint. He is an incredible performer with a great voice, and he learned every song we asked for! about a dozen. And, his sound system sounded professional concert level quality.
Stephen played for the cocktail hour, reception, and first dance. He was easy going, but professional and attentive, and he really made our day special. He was perfect for our wedding and had a smile on his face the whole day, just a joy to be around. Overall, Stephen was a terrific addition to our wedding.
Since then we've hired Stephen a second time to come play for my parent's anniversary party in 2021 and he was even better then we remembered, and just as nice : )
He belongs on a big stage somewhere, and I highly recommend him to anyone in need of live entertainment for whatever they’re planning. He's professional, friendly, and talented, and he will make your special day even more memorable. One of a kind.

A+ Experience

Stephen Michael was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding. From the very beginning, he was professional, organized, and flexible, making the process stress-free and enjoyable. He took the time to get to know us and our preferences, tailoring his music selection to suit our tastes and ensuring that everything went smoothly on the big day.

He was a true professional from start to finish, and we couldn't be happier with our choice to have him as our wedding artist. We would highly recommend Stephen to anyone looking for a solo wedding singer/guitarist who will truly make your special day unforgettable.

The Perfect Choice for our Wedding

We hired Stephen for our small wedding in Fall of 2022 for the cocktail hour and reception. He arrived early, played BEAUTIFULLY, and both us and several of our guests agreed he was a delight to converse with. Stephen was easy going, accommodating, and professional, he exceeded our expectations!
We had a small budget, but didn’t want to just play music through a boombox, so we were so happy to have found Stephen. Worth every penny!!! So glad we didn’t go with a DJ
Thanks Steve!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
