    Wonderful guitarist!

    We used James for our wedding for the ceremony portion that was outside. He and a violinist played and it was excellent. James was very responsive and was able to play all the songs we requested. If you’re thinking about booking him for your wedding, this is your sign to do it!

    James Meade Guitarist's reply:

    Thank you so much, Kelsey. It was a please to be a part of such a beautiful wedding. All the best to you both!

    Professional, Versatile, Musical

    James provides a professional service with a beautiful musical touch. He can arrange to play a great variety of music, and he is friendly and easy to communicate with.

    Listen to his few youtube songs as they are amazing. By and far the best guitarist I have ever heard at a ceremony and loved every minute of his music. Also received rave reviews from the ceremony guests.

    James was amazing to work with! He's pilot, professional, and always timely with his responses. He was also very accommodating on our song selection, providing great recommendations while customizing a request for us that to some may have been a little unorthodox/unusual...no questions asked! He's more then reasonably priced and well worth it! His services added a special touch to our wedding ceremony and made it feel even more intimate. We would recommend him to anyone and hope that we can utilize his services again in the near future!

    We hired James for our ceremony music for our wedding and we were so pleased he was available for our date. Everyone of our wedding guests told us how beautiful the music was for our wedding. He worked very hard to make sure our music was perfect and even put together a special arrangement for our lightening of candle ceremony. I would definitely recommend his services for your wedding music!

    James was a great guitarist for our cocktail hour. He set a very relaxed and peaceful mood. He was professional and prompt in his responsiveness throughout the process. I would definitely highly recommend him.

    We were on the hunt for someone to play acoustic guitar for our wedding ceremony. I was so happy that we chose James to play. We received nothing but great complements from all of our wedding guests! It really made our event special. I wish I could have been out there the entire time with them to hear it all! He was very responsive to all correspondence, and willing to customize a playlist just for us to make our day ceremony even more special. James was very down-to-earth and was a pleasure to work with. Highly recommended!

    James was a wonderful guitarist, and most importantly, a gentleman. It was obvious that he had a lot of experience and knew what he was doing. To be honest, he is such an amazing guitarist that I'm shocked his services were what they cost. If you want an experienced, professional, and all-around quality guitar player, then James should be your choice. He will not disappoint.

    James did a great job at our wedding and was very professional. We requested a few songs a couple months before the wedding and he played them perfectly!

    We contacted James on short notice after our original musician backed out at the last minute. Even with just a two week notice, he was able to put together the ceremony music of our dreams - and even willing to learn a new song. He played beautifully and definitely helped to make our ceremony the one of our dreams.

    James Meade was extremely nice to everyone at my wedding. He also did a fantastic job playing our song. He is very professional. I honestly enjoyed having him play at our wedding. Also my wedding didn't get to start on time because I was still getting my dress on and he adapted and was prepared with music to keep everyone entertained.

    The ceremony music was PERFECT, just how I imagined it. He's definitely a professional that knows how to phrase the music just so, so it ends and transitions at the right times. We were looking for a guitar and violin duo, and luckily James had a violinist friend he teamed up with for our ceremony music. They did an awesome job, and sounded great on the 2 special songs we requested. He also was able to bring his own amplification equipment. Leading up to the wedding I have to admit he was quite unresponsive at times to my emails (sometimes I needed to send a second follow up email, or wait a whole week for a reply), but in the end he pulled through and totally delivered the day of!

    Deposit non-refundable

    Be sure you want to proceed, I cancelled within 48hrs notice, before the deposit had even been cashed, and did could not get a refund. Given the costs of weddings today its a shame small bushiness do not follow large business contract's I could and would have understood had it been nearer to the date, or even after a longer period of contract agreement. Not impressed with lack of willingness to return refund.

    James Meade Guitarist's reply:

    Nicola,

    I understand your frustration if you're considering the deposit as the moment your date was held. Unfortunately, I held your date the moment I received your signed contract. From there I turned down two pieces of work with faith in what you told me that your deposit was in the mail since there was a delay in receiving it.

    I appreciate your interest in my service and I'm sorry it did not work out this time.

    With respect,
    James M. Meade
