    Incredible Performer and Professional

    Jonathon was one of the best finds for our wedding! He was extremely professional, responsive, and flexible for all the mishaps a wedding day may bring. One of the defining moments of working with Jonathon was his ability to learn songs we requested and playing them incredibly well for our ceremony and private dance. He truly should be charging more for his services as he is incredibly unique and perfect for your ceremony!

    Jonathan Kunkle Classical Guitarist's reply:

    Thank you Dalen.
    I enjoyed playing for you and Leslie. It was a beautiful ceremony and day. I appreciate you having me be a part of it.

    My family and friends still talk about the special touch Jonathan brought to our wedding. He is amazing. So easy to work with and so talented. Jonathan even learned to play a new song we requested. He played it more beautifully then the original. We couldn't have asked for a better musician!

    Jonathan Kunkle Classical Guitarist's reply:

    Thank you Ashley
    I appreciate you having me play in your and Ryan's wedding. It was great to learn and get to play Across the Stars for you. I plan to keep playing it.
    It adds to the ceremony when you can personalize the music with a song that is special to both of you. I am glad i was able to participate

    Wonderful Guitarist

    Jonathan was amazing! He made it easy to choose songs for my ceremony, and even learned a custom song for the recessional. He arrived on the day of the wedding on-time and ready to play. I didn’t have a wedding coordinator, but Jonathan was in place and ready to go right at the start of the ceremony and the music was beautiful. He also played for an hour at cocktail hour. I would recommend him to anyone.

    Jonathan Kunkle Classical Guitarist's reply:

    Thank you Kate
    It was great to be included in your wedding. I thoroughly enjoyed playing for your ceremony. I can see why you choose the selection you did. It fit in perfectly with the ceremony. It was fun to learn it.
    Best Wishes

    Ceremony and Cocktail Hour Music

    We hired Jon to play music for our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour and we are so happy we did! Jon is friendly, responsive, and is willing to go out of his way to make everything perfect. He even learned a specific song for our unity ceremony and made that moment so special for us. Thank you, Jon, for helping to make our wedding so memorable!

    Wedding Ceremony and Cocktail Hour at Reception

    We got married at the Harrisburg Capitol Building and we had no idea what that meant or to plan the music for that type of venue. Not only did Jonathan already have experience at that venue, he walked us through the entire planning...giving advice, but letting us have the input we needed to make it ours. Then (and this doesn't happen often) he showed up and did exactly what he promised he would. The entire wedding went off without a hitch and everyone talked about how amazing the music was. We went from a small wedding on an even smaller budget to having the classiest wedding music around! We cannot thank him enough for truly making it our dream wedding.

    Jonathan Kunkle Classical Guitarist's reply:

    Thank You Rebecca.
    It was great to play for you and your guests.Everyone was easy to work with and your guests were very appreciative and kind to me at the wedding and reception. Thanks again for having me.

    Great experience

    Jonathan played at my wedding on 7/31/21 at the Cameron estate inn during the ceremony and cocktail hour. He really helped make the ceremony very personal and special to us by incorporating music choices that were meaningful to us (he learned them for the event). He did a great job and was pleasant and responsive while working out the details. I would recommend this vendor!!

    Jonathan Kunkle Classical Guitarist's reply:

    Thank You for having me play. I enjoyed learning and playing those pieces for you. It was a beautiful ceremony , Thanks for letting me be a part of it.

    Beautiful music and attentive service!

    I found Jonathan through a different vendor on WeddingWire who highly recommended him. We hired Jonathan to play prelude music, professional, recessional, and to coordinate first dance music. Jonathan was very patient with me and responded to all of my countless emails very promptly.

    He also sent me recordings of the requested songs I wanted and made accommodations when needed to make sure everything went smoothly! The music he played was beautiful and really added the perfect touch to our small ceremony.

    I would highly recommend anyone looking for a musician to consider Jonathan and listen to the samples on his site.

    Jonathan Kunkle Classical Guitarist's reply:

    Thank You Leonor.
    I greatly enjoyed playing for you and Taylor's wedding. I am thankful that I could participate. It was wonderful to play for you and your families and friends. I also enjoyed playing in the conservatory. Thanks again for having me.
    Sincerely, Jonathan Kunkle

    Really enjoyed working with Jonathan. He was always prompt with answering emails, was on time for the event and very professional throughout the whole process. His fee was beyond reasonable. He is amazingly talented and his music added a beautiful touch to our daughter 's wedding ceremony. Many guests mentioned that they loved the guitarist!
    I would definitely recommend Jonathan and hope to utilize his services again in the future.

    Jonathan is the best!

    We can’t say enough about Jonathan! We had a small, intimate ceremony followed by a large 135 person reception. Jonathan was very responsive and very reasonable. He helped me (the bride) with selections when I was unsure what would be good fits for the different parts of the wedding, and clearly knows his stuff! He really made the ceremony become an intimate and emotional moment in our lives, and we can’t thank him enough! He was such a pleasure, and played beautifully!

    Jonathan Kunkle Classical Guitarist's reply:

    Christine,
    Thank You for having me play. Your family and guests were very kind and gracious to me. It was an honor to be a part of your ceremony.

    Would Recommend to Anyone!

    We used Jonathan during our wedding ceremony as well as during cocktail hour. He can play a variety of music on his guitar, and is extremely helpful while putting your ceremony music together. His pricing is beyond reasonable for the quality service you receive. He played wonderfully- it sounded like a dream come true!! Would recommend for anyone wanting live music for their wedding.

    Jonathan Kunkle Classical Guitarist's reply:

    Abby,
    Thank You for having me play. I enjoyed playing for you and your family and guests. It was great to be a part of your ceremony. It was also nice to meet some of your family and guests during cocktail hour. That was a great day.Thanks again.

    Couldnt be happier

    My husband and I really wanted a live musician for our ceremony and cocktail hour. Jonathan was wonderful to work with. Very accommodating and responsive. He even leaned how to play a song we requested for the recessional which was very special to us. Thank you Jonathan for adding to our perfect day!

    Wonderful musical option for your wedding ceremony

    My wife and I had a small intimate wedding and we were very pleased with Mr. Kunkle's services. His style fits perfectly into a simple, classy ceremony, although; I'm sure he could handle a wedding of any size and style. We would certainly recommend him to our friends and family.

    Great sound solution!

    Delighted to have Jonathan play at our ceremony. He was able to support our officiant with an amp for her mic, cue up our ipod for a particular song, and most importantly- serenade our guests! Jonathan played 30 mins while our guests were mingling pre-ceremony, as well as ceremony music, and 30 minutes to follow. As bride and groom we were not able to sit and enjoy but our guests made a point to compliment his playing. He was easy to work with, and very responsive. Highly recommend!

    Jonathan Kunkle Classical Guitarist's reply:

    Thank You Kelly,
    I appreciate you having me play and being a part of your wedding.
    That was a fun evening. Best Wishes. Jonathan
