Thank you, Dwight!

Dwight was absolutely wonderful and everything we could have hoped for in a wedding officiant. From the very beginning, he was incredibly communicative, easy to work with, and thoughtful throughout the entire process, which made planning such an important part of our day feel effortless and stress-free.

On the wedding day, Dwight delivered a beautiful speech that felt warm, personal, and perfectly suited to the moment. He struck exactly the right tone, heartfelt, meaningful, and celebratory, and helped make our ceremony feel truly special.

We are so grateful to have had Dwight as part of our wedding. He was the perfect officiant for our special day, and we would highly recommend him to any couple looking for someone professional, kind, and genuinely excellent at what he does.

Flexible, Communicative & Super Fun!

Dwight was an absolute dream to work with! In a matter of minutes after I emailed him to inquire about his availability, he emailed me back and forth until we had our short-notice, low key wedding date locked in! He was so flexible and accommodating throughout the process, and his googledoc template was nothing short of ideal to work with him through. He came to our home for our little family of 5 ceremony and it was so awesome - I only wish I could have cloned him so that he could have take a video of it all happening while our oldest son, 8, took all the pictures. 11/10 recommend!

Wedding on deck

Dwight was so easy to work with. Together, we designed a program that fit our needs. It went smoothly as he's witty, kind and respectful of the meaning of the event to us. I highly recommend Dwight to be your next officiant and you too will benefit from his experience and professionalism.

Excellent officiant

Dwight was such a wonderful person to work with as our wedding officiant. He was professional, easy going, flexible, responsive, and always punctual for our meetings. He gave us a template to work from for designing our ceremony with possible ideas ranging from using them as they were to designing the ceremony completely. The most important part was what a genuine and kind person he is. He brought that to the ceremony and took time to get to know us when we met with him prior to the ceremony. Finally, his flexibility and easygoing nature was so important for our day because we had an outdoor wedding - this helped us to feel less stressed because we knew that all would go well. I highly recommend him as a wedding officiant - our wedding wouldn't have been the same without him!

Fantastic Officiant

We had a wonderful wedding and Dwight really helped bring it together. He was our officiant. We met ahead of the wedding and discussed expectations around the ceremony, as well as the language and tone we were going for. His priority was always ensuring we had the ceremony we envisioned. We had a million things to worry about, but Dwight was never one of them!

The ceremony was beautiful and fun. Dwight is an excellent orator and was able to speak to a room of about 80 people clearly without a microphone.

Beautiful, personal ceremony and easy planning!

It was such a pleasure working with Dwight for our wedding ceremony. He made creating the ceremony easy with a template that allowed for us to completely customize and personalize our ceremony. He didn't balk at all when we wanted to do our ceremony outside in 20 degree weather! He responded quickly to our initial request and continued to be responsive and available throughout the process. He made our ceremony special and I would definitely recommend Dwight to other couples!

Laid-Back Modern Cerermony

Dwight met with us when we first expressed interest to see if we’d make a good fit. We talked about the venue and our needs. From there he sent a template which we could edit and review each section, pretty much every word of the ceremony to fit our style. Then we had another meeting to confirm everything. I wanted to take out any religious tones and all outdated gender role type language. Dwight was happy and comfortable with all of our choices. He arrived early and slipped out quietly after the ceremony. Fantastic experience all around. Thank you, Dwight.

Dwight was absolutely incredible! We were fortunate to find him just a week before our micro-wedding in NH. From the minute we messaged him, we knew he was the perfect guy! He made everything stress free and was eager to answer any questions we had prior. Dwight was very punctual and was so easygoing, both of our families immediately loved him! Thanks again so much Dwight for helping us on our special day!

Fantastic!

Dwight was absolutely amazing!! We met with him a couple months before our wedding and instantly clicked. He was quick to respond to all my questions, provided excellent feedback, and when I had an unusual special request he was more than willing to accommodate. He played his guitar prior to our service and our guests really enjoyed it. His wedding template was excellent, it gave us a great rundown of the ceremony with many options to choose from to 110% personalize our wording. On our special day he helped us to savor every moment of our ceremony. I would highly recommend him for your special day!

Wonderful experience

Dwight was wonderful! We had planned for an elopement on the kancamagus highway- but Mother Nature had other plans. Less than two hours before the ceremony we called him as it was brought to our attention that this location would not be optimal (we are locals and were not expecting this to be the case- but hey, stuff happens). He was very responsive and incredibly flexible- no questions asked and luckily he had service at the time we called. He showed up to the location we requested and was very kind and professional. He followed our wishes for the ceremony and helped to make our day very special! Dwight is the real deal- we highly recommend. We were quite nervous as anyone would be when getting married and especially in our circumstances eloping but everything went very smoothly and Dwight was a big factor in that! Oh and he was a teacher for several years- if you could remember your favorite teacher from High School- that would be him! 10/10 recommend. He made us laugh on our special day. Sweet and responsive man.

My husband and I last minute eloped in Laconia a few weeks ago and Dwight officiated it. I can't say enough great things about Dwight.

Perfect fit for our special day

Dwight was the perfect person for our ceremony. He made the wedding process smooth and as stress-free as possible. He was understanding and very helpful in navigating our planning of the ceremony even though we were living overseas up until a couple weeks out. He contributed to making our wedding day as perfect as we could have hoped - despite the weathers change in plans. I would recommend Dwight to anybody looking for a kind, considerate, friendly and down-to-earth officiant for their special day.

The perfect day

His overall personality and his go with the flow vibe was an absolute pleasure. The way he made everyone feel like a part of the ceremony, his sense of humor, his ability to allow the bride to get completely sidetracked (several times) and didn't even bat an eye ~ Highly recommended

Dwight is the best! We traveled from Michigan to get married at Fort Williams Park in December, and he understood exactly what we wanted just from a few communications! Our ceremony was customized perfectly for us, and he even traveled on some slippery terrain to perform the ceremony where we initially planned! I 100% recommend him!

Dwight was very responsive and also flexible on location. We appreciate the quick response and detailed instructions. The ceremony draft was also very helpful with references to other options if desired. Dwight was also very nice and friendly and accommodated special requests. Our wedding was held at Echo Lake Beach. Dwight arrived early and quickly walked us through the process. He was very professional and the ceremony went smoothly. Would highly recommend Dwight to other couples.

Beautiful acoustic performance

Dwight was fantastic to work with. He was extremely responsive to our initial inquiry and the conversation thereafter when we were searching for a vendor. The transactional aspect (contract, payment) was easy and smooth. But of course the best part was the day of. Dwight provided instrumental acoustics to greet our guests and for the walk down the aisle. For the recessional he sang (accompanied with the guitar) “Can’t Help Falling in Love.” Then he relocated from our ceremony site to our reception venue and continued to play for our cocktail hour. The whole experience was wonderful. Dwight played beautifully and had a lovely singing voice and everything was exactly as we wanted. We could never have afforded a full live band for our reception so having Dwight there for the pre-ceremony, ceremony and cocktail hour provided the classy but low key vibe we were looking for, but within a reasonable budget.

Look no further for a wonderful and talented JP and musician

Dwight was beyond fantastic from the very first phone call to the day of the wedding. Being in the wedding industry myself I had a really good idea of what we wanted to do. We eloped in the middle of New Hampshire, in the woods, in the middle of winter so needless to say we were nervous to find someone that would stand outside in the freezing cold with us but he went above and beyond. Even played our favorite song on his guitar for us. He did a great job. Look no further for a wonderful and talented JP and musician.

Dwight was super responsive and easy to work with, which is critical in wedding planning. He was happy to play as much or as little as we asked and did not push back on any of the logistics. We planned the wedding long-distance and it only took a handful of emails to coordinate with him. He arrived on time, coordinated with our other musicians and the priest, and played perfectly for our ceremony (without a rehearsal before). He slipped in and did his job, just like we asked! We didn’t even have a chance to meet him the day-off (unfortunately). We definitely recommend him for any wedding musical needs.

Dwight was such a blessing to have at our wedding! He played our ceremony, cocktail hour and first dances. Having live music for guests to listen to before the ceremony started really set the perfect mood!! He did an awesome job during our cocktail hour, we got lots of compliments about Dwight and the music although my absolute favorite part was having him play our first dances. They would have been tear jerking no matter what, but having Dwight there playing live acoustic versions of the songs we loved was PERFECT! Dwight was easy to work with and would make an excellent addition to any wedding!!!

We worked with Dwight for our July 2018 wedding and we're so glad we did! He played acoustic guitar before and during outdoor ceremony. Dwight was easy to work with over about 8 months that we corresponded. His list of songs is extensive and covers many genres. He listened to our ideas for the ceremony and provided helpful guidance when we needed recommendations. He brings many years of experience in the wedding industry to the table, and had worked at our venue before, so he even provided recommendations specific to our ceremony location. Dwight helped us create an intimate, relaxed atmosphere for the ceremony that we absolutely loved! We were originally on the fence about live music for the ceremony, but looking back we are so glad that we did, and that we hired Dwight!

You can tell he really enjoys what he does, and he brings that enthusiasm to your guests. Our original conversation was via phone, then we got together over coffee to talk details and he even made it a point to come by rehearsal to make sure everything was in order for day of. Thank you Dwight, you were fantastic!

Dwight was amazing! We live out of state so we were able to set up a phone call meeting a few months before the wedding. My husband and I really had no idea what we wanted to do for music but Dwight was able to give us great suggestions. He was thoughtful and very personable. The day of our wedding he was on time (even though it rained!) and was ready to go when the rain finally cleared. He was very professional. I recommend him to anyone who wants to add a little real music to their wedding or event.

Dwight was amazing. Very charming and easy to work with. He played and sang wonderfully. He even learned a new song just for us. All in all a perfect experience. Could not have asked for a better performance.

Music is a big part of my husbands and my life so we wanted to have our ceremony feature live music over a DJ and we are so glad we did! Dwight was fantastic to work with from start to finish and offered a lot of insight with helping pick songs that were meaningful to us but also sounded well together. We cannot recommend Dwight enough if you are looking for a talented musician to play at your wedding

Hiring Dwight to play music during our ceremony was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding day. Not only was he willing to go above and beyond to meet our expectations, but he was so easy-going, flexible, and always positive - a true joy to work with! He is a very organized vendor, responsive and personable. Plus, his prices are reasonable! Dwight helped us pick out songs for our ceremony that were meaningful and added an extra special touch to our big day. HIGHLY recommend Dwight and his services to enhance your special day!

Mr. Phetteplace just added so much to my daughter's outdoor wedding. The style was just what the bride and groom asked for, the volume was perfect, and he played just the right length of time. I would hire him again in a heartbeat - fabulous musician.

Dwight was such a wonderful vendor to work with! He made it easy to work with him long distance and was always willing to talk on the phone and answered emails promptly. His attention to detail took all the stress off of us as he coordinated our ceremony music and microphones in addition to our cocktail hour music. His ability to provide a variety of musical selections appealed to us and he was willing to learn new songs if necessary. Dwight was wonderful with our flower girls, entertaining them during the cocktail hour and being endlessly patient as all 7 of them walked down the aisle.... he played Pachelbel's Canon in D for quite some time :) I can't thank Dwight enough for being part of our special day!

Dwight was extremely accommodating and friendly when we met him, super personable and genuinely interested in every detail of our wedding and the feel we were looking for. The day of the wedding everything went off as planned and we had no issues what so ever! Dwight played guitar during the ceremony and played during our cocktail hour and dinner, then he played our music list we put together. He did an excellent job and I would highly recommend him!!

Our experience with Dwight was nothing less of flawless, convenient, and of course perfect. We contacted Dwight from The Knot. Throughout the process, we planned our New Hampshire wedding from Maryland. He was excellent and communicated with us when necessary. His follow up and follow through is extremely professional. When we met Dwight in person, we ran an hour late as our flight got in too late. He was flexible with accommodating us when that occurred; we were still able to meet that day. On day of wedding, we had a whole agenda planned. However, we had to switch around the agenda last second (i.e. first dances, entrance, etc). Dwight was nothing but flexible and adaptable when this occurred. He is extremely professional and I recommend him to any couple who needs a musician to complete the whole ensemble from start to finish. Not only did he play live music in the ceremony and cocktail hour, but he also DJ'd us. Also, he is extremely military friendly, as my husband is a veteran and he gave us a more than generous discount. Both my husband and I plan to recommend him to anyone looking for a musician.

Thank you again, Dwight, for making our day perfect!

Dwight was an absolute pleasure to work with! He guided me in the process of choosing songs for our ceremony and helped to ensure that our ceremony was exactly what my husband and I wanted it to be. He even helped my mom and mother-in-law write a special song for the day! Dwight is extremely kind and professional - he is my absolute first choice for anyone looking for guitar music on their wedding day.

My (now) husband and I hired Dwight for our March 19th wedding. He was so accommodating to all of our needs and was able to give us wonderful suggestions for songs when we just simply didn't have anything picked out. All my guest spoke highly of him as he played for our ceremony and cocktail hour. He has a unique voice, and wonderful talent that should be heard at many weddings!! Additionally, he was amazing to work with, he took away all the stress and handled everything perfectly. There is nothing I would have changed about having him be apart of our wedding!
Thank you Dwight!

I had a very unique ceremony and Dwight was eager to be a part of it. He played Ave Maria as I walked down the aisle, and then immediately after the ceremony, played a more silly song for us to dance to. They both sounded beautiful including where he sang for the second song. He was extremely professional, on time, and couldn't have been nicer or easier to deal with. Even the wedding coordinator at the venue commented how great he was which was nice to hear. I highly recommend Dwight.

We absolutely loved working with Dwight. I knew he was a perfect fit for us as soon as we chatted on the phone. Planning a destination wedding is tough because I was only able to book vendors based on phone calls. Dwight took so much of his own time getting to know us over the phone. When we mentioned we would be driving up to Maine for a quick weekend trip he agreed to meet us in person just to chat about our ceremony music. Dwight even learned a new song for us so we could have it playing when I walked down the aisle. Working with him was so easy. He was super quick to respond to emails and was and extremely accommodating! I highly recommend using him for any type of wedding or function! If we ever need music for an event again we will be sure to call Dwight first!

My husband and I hired Dwight for our small, intimate wedding (40 people). Dwight played for the entire day; ceremony, cocktail hour and reception.
Dwight was the right fit for our big day - laid back, fun and very professional. Many of our guests complimented on how much they enjoyed listening to Dwight.
I highly recommend Dwight if you are looking for a talented acoustic guitarist for a wedding - his style is versatile ( Classic music to Beatles to Zac Brown).
Dwight's prices were very reasonable too - he won't blow your budget.
We were so happy to include him in our wedding.

Dwight was the perfect guitarist to have at our wedding. His smile and positive energy light up a room! His energy is just contagious. He doesn't try to be the center of the wedding, but gives just enough to make an impression. The best part is, he is so talented! You can tell he loves what he does and his music reflects that! Being a retired teacher, his ability to engage the crowd, but still love what he does are the perfect ingredients to a perfect guitarist! Thanks Dwight for everything! We will never forget the role you had on our special day!! Mr. and Mrs. Hall

My (now) husband and I planned our Maine wedding from Texas, and did not have any personal recommendations from anyone regarding vendors. After doing some online research, we elected to hire Dwight as our musician based on the glowing reviews he received.

We knew that our wedding would be unique in that we interrupted the cocktail hour with our short ceremony, and then went right back to the cocktail hour when it was finished. It required choreography on Dwight's behalf to ensure that the appropriate music was playing at the right time, but he was up for the challenge and nailed it!

Additionally, we wanted to have our first dance to a particular song, and Dwight was eager and willing to learn it. He was an excellent performer and musician who was a great fit for all of our guests young, old and those that fell somewhere in between.

Dwight was easy to work with, extremely reasonable with his pricing, and flexible when things needed to be changed or adjusted. I would highly recommend him to anyone who is planning a wedding in New England!

Working with Dwight was absolutely wonderful. It is always difficult hiring someone you've found online that you've never met, and really...know little about. I hired Dwight based on the reviews (they are phenomenal!) and I am SO glad that I did! Dwight was an absolute joy to work with. When my husband and I met him to go over details before the wedding, it was like we had known him for years. He is such a pleasure to work with. He is trustworthy and truly cares about his clients. He took the time to work with us and give us beautiful music all within our budget... He even learned a song that we requested and sang it absolutely flawlessly. If you want not only a wonderful musician..but a friend, Dwight is your guy! We can't thank him enough for all that he did, and all he gave us by singing and playing on our wedding day.

Dwight did the ceremony music for our wedding a few weeks ago. He was awesome to work with through planning and there on the day of. We had both acoustic guitar with and without vocals. It was exactly as I had imagined it, and put a beautiful touch to our outdoor wedding. Dwight sang and played "Make me feel your love" as I walked down the aisle. I could not have asked for a more perfect entrance to my wedding and seeing my fiance for the first time. It is a memory I will cherish forever.

Dwight learned one of our favorite songs for the wedding and he did an amazing job.. Dwight made our already beautiful day into a perfect day.. I would recommend his services to anyone. Dwight is personable, easy to reach and so easy and fun to work with!!

I can't say enough about Dwight. Not only was his music great but he was absolutely amazing to work with. A month before our wedding our ceremony & cocktail music fell through. I was extremely stressed trying to find someone to do our music, being a teacher it was the end of the school year and I was getting my wisdom tooth out. I searched the internet and came across Dwight. I listened to his music on his website which was great but saw that he had another wedding the day after which was far so I wasn't sure if he would be able to do it. When we spoke on the phone I explained my situation and he informed me that it would be a lot of traveling for him that weekend but he would do it. Talking on the phone with him was so easy, it was like i knew him already. We planned the whole ceremony together. I told him some of my thoughts and he gave some suggestions. The ceremony was absolutely beautiful. Everyone one told us how wonderful the music was and as the bride I made sure I listened to the music as I walked down the aisle and while we walked back up the aisle as husband and wife. Something that started out as very stressful was well worth it because I couldn't imagine not having Dwight do the music at our wedding.

My husband and I hired Dwight to play the acoustic guitar at our wedding ceremony and play the guitar and sing at our cocktail hour. He was very professional and also such a nice person to get to know and work with! He had a great selection of songs and we were very impressed with his talent (both on the guitar and vocally). He is a genuinely nice person and made us feel very comfortable trusting that he knew exactly what to do on the day. I would absolutely recommend Dwight for future weddings!

Dwight was a total pro! He offered to meet with me before the wedding to go over songs for our cocktail hour and ceremony, and he even learned a new song that I wanted played as I walked down the aisle. He had great advice about song choices and we felt very confident in his experience. He was quick to respond to emails and his rates were very reasonable. He also has a wonderful and infectious attitude! We'd recommend him in a heartbeat.

Dwight was perfect in every way! At our first meeting he immediately clued into my husbands and my style and guided us through picking the perfect songs for the ceremony and dances-songs that were unique and special to us. He was thorough and addressed many details we had not even considered! Throughout the planning process he was available and knowledgeable, answering any questions I had. On the day of the wedding, he was flexible, professional, and personable creating a very relaxed atmosphere complete with smiles and laughter, which for an uptight bride like me was exactly what I needed! Everybody loved his cocktail hour; we are still getting compliments about his musicality and diverse repertoire! My husband had a special request and surprised me by asking Dwight if he could sing our last dance song instead of playing a recorded version. Dwight gladly played the song and did an amazing job-it was so perfect and unexpected I wouldn’t have wanted it any other way! His music created the perfect atmosphere for our ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception; he was truly a perfect fit for our special day!

Dwight was an absolute pleasure to work with. From the beginning, he was warm and welcoming and always responded promptly to me. We used him for music during our ceremony and cocktail hour and the acoustic guitar was exactly what we were looking for and fit in perfect with the vibe that we were going for with our wedding. It was romantic and relaxed at the same time. Dwight was able to give us some great suggestions and was extremely flexible with the music that I wanted and was also able to switch it up when I wanted to change the ceremony music a few weeks before the wedding. I highly recommend Dwight for your wedding ceremony, cocktail hour and/or reception. He will be an excellent addition and will likely be the easiest and most stress free vendor that you work with.

Dwight is an extremely talented musician, but that is just the beginning of his value to any prospective bride and groom. We had Dwight play the ceremony and the cocktail hour of our big day. He sounded equally as great with the ceremony's classical arrangements as he did with the more contemporary hits during the cocktail hour. Dwight is a consummate professional, and was a pleasure to work with throughout all the pre-wedding coordination. He was responsive to requests, proactive with coordinating details, and just a joy to work with. I could go on and on, but quite simply, there's a million details to coordinate come wedding day, and with Dwight there's one less thing to worry about.

Having Dwight play our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour was an incredible success. Not only is Dwight a talented musician - he also was a great personality for our event... unobtrusive but upbeat his enthusiasm is infectious and he made the whole event fun. Best of all he was able to take requests during the cocktail hour which delighted the guests... and was able to learn new music just for our ceremony. Dwight provided microphones for our ceremony (for both him and our officiant) as well as the amplification for the cocktail hour as an added bonus. Overall Dwight was great to work with and we cannot recommend him highly enough.

I found Dwight on theknot.com a while back when I started the wedding planning process. He was very quick to respond to my initial e-mail and was extremely friendly and willing to help us with our wedding ceremony. He made an extra effort to meet with my husband and I (for pizza!) to discuss the ceremony, the music and other details that WE didn't even think of. He was very kind and talkative, getting to know us as a couple and really showed that he cared about his role in our wedding. I had a special request that he collaborate with my cousin's wife for a song during the ceremony. They connected before the wedding via email/phone and met before the ceremony to practice. I had goosebumps when she started singing and he started playing the guitar. It was simply beautiful.i absolutely love the sound of the guitar and it was very fitting for our wedding. He helped our officiant get set up with a microphone and I didn't worry one bit about anything, because I knew he had it all under control. After the ceremony, he played for our cocktail hour and we received so many compliments about the music. I highly recommend Dwight for a wedding or any other function. He was a pleasure to work with and he played a big part in making our day so special.

My husband and I got married in late April and had the privilege and honor of having Dwight as our ceremony musician. Our ceremony took place in a beautiful chapel and I wanted to walk down the aisle to a simple instrumental solo guitar version of the intro part of the song called "Edie (Ciao Baby)" by The Cult. Now...please don't judge based on the name of the group. :) The intro to that song is really beautiful (especially when it's stripped down to a solo guitar) and as Dwight pointed out, not only does it have a lot of classical elements to it, but it also fit perfectly with the look and feel of this chapel. When I contacted Dwight to tell him of my idea, we both had a good chuckle about it and I thought to myself that not only does he have a great sense of humor and goes with the flow, but he was also so opened-minded and said he would be happy to "learn" the intro part of that song for us! Wow...talk about dedication!!! We hit it off instantly and got to know Dwight in the weeks that followed and absolutely loved working with him! He is so incredibly talented and gifted and he is professional, reliable and welcomes ideas and loves to collaborate. He also has a beautiful voice. So much so that he sang "One Love" by Bob Marley for our recessional (along with his guitar) and it was beautiful! Dwight's rates are extremely reasonable and he is very prompt to respond, should you have any questions. In a nutshell, whether you would like a traditional wedding and would like classic music to play during your ceremony, or if you're like me and would like to go the more non-traditional route, Dwight knows it all and if he doesn't know it, he'll learn it! Dwight is simply amazing and books up quickly, so I strongly encourage future brides to contact him because I promise you, you won't be disappointed!

Dwight did our ceremony music on 5/17/14. He agreed to perform at our wedding last minute when we decided we wanted live music. He was great and super responsive. We met with him shortly before the wedding and we felt very comfortable with him. He was very helpful in selecting music that would flow together. The day of the wedding I received many compliments on his music and we both really enjoyed the feel of the guitar versus music played over a stereo. Dwight was great to work with, very flexible, friendly and professional! We would recommend him to anyone!

From the get-go Dwight was responsive and so helpful and I felt completely happy knowing he would be at our wedding to play during our ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner and the play music from our iPad for dancing. Dwight was awesome with adjusting to last minute changes and was there to lend a hand to anyone that needed it going above and beyond his call of duty! I would highly recommend booking Dwight for your entire wedding music from start to finish as he did such an amazing job at ours! During cocktail hour & dinner the music Dwight played acoustic was so relaxing and really set the mood for the night. So happy we got to work with Dwight for our wedding.

My wife and I were a few weeks out from our wedding when we decided to
take our plan for music in the ceremony in a different direction.

Time was of the essence and after a short hunt we found Dwight, and boy
was he up for the task. He was very responsive, professional, and most
of all encouraging. We loved the small wedding we had planned and Dwight
made us love it that much more. He seemed almost as excited as we were!

The ceremony was at the Rockland Breakwater Light and Dwight lugged a
couple battery powered amps/speakers out a mile long breakwater to play
for our guests as they arrived, during the ceremony, and during a champagne hour at lighthouse following the wedding.

After chatting with us for only a short time Dwight was able to put together a killer setlist that most, if not all, of our guests praised.

Dwight's commitment to his craft is evident and I would highly recommend him to anyone planning their wedding.

My wife and I were a few weeks out from our wedding when we decided to
take our plan for music in the ceremony in a different direction.

Time was of the essence and after a short hunt we found Dwight. Boy
was he up for the task! He was very responsive, professional, and most
of all encouraging. We loved the small wedding we had planned and Dwight
made us love it that much more. He seemed almost as excited as we were!

The ceremony was at the Rockland Breakwater Light, and Dwight lugged a
couple battery powered amps/speakers out a mile long breakwater to play
for our guests as they arrived, during the ceremony, and during a
champagne hour at lighthouse following the wedding.

Dwight was truly a fabulous addition to our wedding. After going out to see him play at a cafe one night, we knew he was going to be a right match to set a comfortable, pleasant mood at our wedding. Dwight was fabulous to plan with, offered great suggestions in a way that was extremely helpful and never pushy.

Dwight played during our ceremony, and had the timing and order of events nailed down more than our JP :) We were honestly telling people that if they had a question, to ask our guitarist as he knew what was going on. The music was beautiful - Dwight has a great selection of music off his website, but it almost doesn't do him justice until you hear him in person. Dwight had provided all the microphones and amps necessary to make our lakefront ceremony a success.

Cocktail hour came, and Dwight played a great array of James Taylor-esque songs and sounded great. The people enjoyed it and it was again a great accompaniment without stealing the show or being drowned out.

Dwight kicked off the reception with some classy introductions and manned our playlists for dinner music, again doing a great job. He played acoustic guitar for our first dance songs and sounded absolutely beautiful. He rolled with a few punches throughout the night as plans shifted a bit and was always keeping us well informed and on task along the way.

We couldn't have asked for a better partner to help us with our music, entertainment and planning. Thanks Dwight!

We can not say enough wonderful things about Dwight Phetteplace. We hired Dwight to sing and play acoustic guitar at our daughter's outside wedding in Surry, NH on August 10, 2013. Dwight played his acoustic guitar for the ceremony, then played and sang for both the cocktail hour and the meal. Later on Dwight become our announcer and played the song list from my daughters iPod on his equipment. Dwight has a fine singing voice and his music choice was marvelous as well.

Dwight was so easy to deal with and a nicer person you will not meet! He met with the Bride and Groom early on to go over the logistics and had a few suggestions for them that helped the reception along in planning.

We highly recommend Dwight and would use his services again for any event!

I honestly cannot believe how lucky we were to find Dwight. We discovered Dwight's information on a local Facebook page and have been grateful ever since. Since the first time we contacted him, Dwight was responsive and very helpful and flexible through the wedding planning process. He was accessible for questions when I had clarifications and gave some great tips that reflected his experience. When we ran into some car troubles a few weeks before the wedding that impacted our budget, he was accommodating and flexible and made the stressful issue as anxiety free as possible for us. On the day of our wedding, our guests were coming up to us with nothing but great words to say about Dwight. My cousin's LOVED the music selection he chose for the cocktail hour and had a great time spending the afternoon around Dwight and his guitar! All of the music we selected fit perfectly with the atmosphere of our wedding and Dwight was incredible as a guitarist and support system throughout the wedding planning process!

Wonderful
Dwight recently performed at our daughter's wedding ceremony in Bar Harbour Maine.
We were in Bar Harbour selecting the venue, when we decided to peruse several guitarist websites.
We listened to Dwight's many music selections on-line and decided he was the one.
Dwight was a pleasure to work with, prompt, personable and very receptive to our music selections.
He was willing to learn new songs if necessary, contacting us several times prior to the wedding
to ensure we were happy with the chosen music.
Our favourite moment was when he sang "MARRY ME" by Train, during the lighting of the unity candle.
He sang the song with such Grace and Love.
The wedding guests commented on his beautiful voice and guitar playing.
We would highly recommend Dwight as a guitarist/singer to any Bride and Groom on their special day.

Dwight did an amazing job. We made some last minute changes (the day of the wedding) and he was accommodating and great about making the changes. I'm not sure any other musician would have been the same. Dwight was punctual, friendly, and his presence help set the tone for our day.

Thank you Dwight for everything!

Dwight is a fantastic musician and his music blended very well into our ceremony and reception. We heard nothing but positive remarks and comments about both his guitar playing and singing. Many people commented "We wish we would have had him at our wedding!".

Beyond his incredible music, working and planning with Dwight was similar to working with an old friend. He's easy going, prompt, personable, and when we needed some guidance, he was tactful in giving his viewpoint.

You shouldn't think twice about hiring Dwight - he's the best!

We hired Dwight for our outdoor wedding last year. He was amazing from the first steps of planning until the execution that day. He listened to the ceremony vibe that we were looking for and paid attention to our personalities and the wedding style. We only needed to meet with him once in person and he knew exactly what to do. He was self-sufficient working with the venue to organize wires, microphones etc... and really did an amazing job with timing and setting the mood. We will never forget our special day and Dwight helped to make that day perfect!

Dwight played during our wedding ceremony this past December and he truly made the ceremony amazing. He was extremely personable and professional during the entire process and set up time to meet with us prior to the wedding to get a better understanding of what we were looking for, including the style/theme of our wedding. He gave us some great suggestions and was also very accomodating to any requests we had. The day of the ceremony, he arrived early and prepared. The music (guitar and singing) was fantastic and made a huge difference in our ceremony! We would not have asked for anything more!! Dwight is great and we strongly recommend him for anyone looking for a great musician!

Look no further - Dwight is who you are looking for. He played guitar at my husband and I's church ceremony and at our 2 hour cocktail reception and he was phenomenal. His playing was a mix of acoustic guitar and guitar with vocals, and it was just perfect. We received so many compliments on the music - you will not regret hiring him! He is extremely responsive to emails and phone calls, and very thorough in understanding exactly what you want/the schedule/how things are going to go. It's clear how much he cares. I never had any doubt the music would be just as we pictured. Thanks again Dwight for making our wedding so wonderful!

We LOVE Dwight!! My husband and I first saw Dwight's ad in a NH Bride book & went undercover to watch him play at a local venue to see if he was any good. Without knowing that we were scoping him out, Dwight came over and talked to us while he was taking a break, which was a big plus! We knew he was an amazing musician within minutes of watching him play, but when he came over to talk to us we knew he was what we were looking for.

Dwight was the first vendor we booked for our wedding, before we even had a date set or a venue. Dwight played for our ceremony, cocktail hour, & dinner, then we switched to an ipod playlist for people to dance, and Dwight closed out the night with some slower wind-down songs. Dwight was a perfect fit for our style and all of our guests loved him. Dwight made our ceremony music so personal and even learned our first dance song, which sounded amazing. I would definitely recommend Dwight to any bride looking for an alternative to the boring DJ who manufactures the same wedding every weekend. Dwight brings something special and unique to your day, and is a talented musician with a genuine down-to-earth personality. We had nothing but the best compliments from our guests about Dwight; everyone was so impressed and liked that he played loudly enough during dinner that you could hear him, but quietly enough that the guests could still talk to each other. Booking Dwight was the best decision we made for our wedding!

I was extremely happy that I hired Dwight to play guitar and sing at my wedding this fall. When we first met, I wasn't sure what I wanted played at the ceremony and it was apparent right away that he really wanted to help us choose music that was unique to the atmosphere we wanted to create for our wedding. He was always quick to respond to my emails and was even willing to ride up a ski lift for my mountain top wedding on a cold fall day. Dwight is a tremendously talented musician and I would highly recommend him! :)

Dwight was an absolute pleasure! We hired him to play during our wedding ceremony and he was perfect. His laid back attitude along with his love of music make for a perfect experience. We would highly recommend him to any bride looking for an acoustic guitarist!

Thanks again Dwight!!! My guests are still talking about what a wonderful job you did :)

What an absolute joy it was to work with Dwight. He played music for our ceremony & cocktail hour, even learning one of my favorite songs Bach's "Cello Suite No. 1" to walk down the aisle to - which made the moment even more magical. He is not only an incredibly talented artist, but an incredibly kind and thoughtful person. I only regret that I was unable to say thank you on the day of.

I simply cannot say enough good things about working with Dwight Phetteplace. He played guitar for our pre-ceremony, ceremony, cocktail hour and dinner, and then plugged our iPod into his sound equipment for the reception. He was an absolute joy to work with, from the moment we first spoke with him on the phone, to the moment the reception ended. He learned two songs for our ceremony that I requested, and played them beautifully, and was always very responsive to my questions and requests. Out of all the vendors for our wedding, I really think he was my favorite, and his rate is beyond reasonable. You will not be disappointed by hiring Dwight to do the music for your wedding.

Dwight was an absolute pleasure to work with throughout the entire process of selecting and previewing music. He was enthusiastic and easy to talk to since the first time we spoke on the phone. He went out of his way to meet with us to review music and always followed up with e-mails or phone calls to make sure he got all the needed info. He has a wonderful selection of music to choose from and is happily willing to learn your favorite song, as he did for our first dance. People are still talking about not only how great his music was, but how friendly he was! We couldn't be happier with our decision to have Dwight play at our wedding!

Dwight was absolutely fantastic. He was incredibly easy to work with and a great value for the money. His music was comfortable, smooth and relaxing, and he created the perfect atmosphere for our wedding. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to anyone! He was one of my favorite parts of our wedding, by far. An absolutely perfect, stress-free experience!

Dwight played music at our ceremony on June 24th, 2011. He was super professional in attire and demeanor. He was so nice and easy to work with even though we hired him on slightly shorter notice. He learned a new song just for us even though there was only a month and half until our wedding and it was so beautiful. He is reasonably priced, very talented and seriously the nicest guy. If you want amazing guitar and to work with a genuinely likable guy definitely go with Dwight!

I cannot say enough great things about Dwight. From my first phone conversation with him, I knew he was to play at our wedding. He took the time to meet with us and even brought his guitar to play for us at my request. He was fantastic with he recommendations on the style and flow of the songs that we wanted to have played during our ceremony. Dwight always answered my emails and calls right away. He was very easy going and has a great sense of humor. Dwight arrived early the day of the wedding and played the entire times our guests were arriving. He played everything from classical, classic rock (like the Beatles) to easy listening songs that all flowed together with ease. He was fantastic and we received many compliments from our guests about his playing and singing. Dwight made the ceremony a beautiful one. I hope someday to have an excuse to hire him again! I would recommend him again and again, not only for his talent at playing guitar but also for his wonderful personality. Thank you Dwight for everything you did for us!
