    Incredible!

    We had Scott as our ceremony musician. He played beautifully and even learned a couple of songs that we requested. He was organized, communicative, and a real a pleasure to work with! Highly recommend!

    Scott was incredible!

    Scott was such a perfect addition to our wedding reception! He kindly and professionally communicated with me throughout every stage of the planning process and was highly reliable. He played a variety of different pieces and offered to learn new music specifically for our event. Our guests were raving about him and his talent all night! We would book him again without hesitation.

    Flawless- highly recommend

    We hired Scott to pay music during Cocktail hour and dinner for our microwedding. I only wish I had more time to listen to his beautiful music! Scott was amazing, and I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a guitarist. I looked forward to hiring him as soon as I saw his sample work on his webpage, and his live performance was just flawless. The music was so beautiful!

    Wow! What a Talent!

    We hired Scott for our intimate outdoor wedding ceremony at Thacher Park on 8/12 and we do not regret it one bit! From the beginning, he was kind, accommodating, and responsive! Scott also learned a new song for us to play as I walked down the aisle and it was just PERFECTION. He matched the vibe perfectly with his guitar skills and even his outfit. We absolutely loved him and hope to hire him for future events as well. Thanks, Scott!

    Set The Tone For A Beautiful Day

    Hiring Scott to play during our wedding was one of the best planning decisions we made! Scott is extremely responsive, very organized, and was able to accommodate all of our song requests, which helped personalize our ceremony. My only regret is not hiring him to play for cocktail hour as well! His lovely music made a huge impact on our day, setting the tone for what turned out to be one of our favorite days ever!

    Kind, easy going and the music was perfect

    We got married in a tiny covid style backyard ceremony just this past weekend. Scott was responsive and professional throughout the planning process, showed up on time and absolutely MADE the atmosphere. His music was so beautiful even neighbors poked their heads out to enjoy it! He was also incredibly respectful and communicative about covid procedures and I would recommend him highly for your wedding or special event! Thank you, Scott!

    perfect live ceremony music

    Scott did a wonderful job with our ceremony music. We picked one song from his list on his website for our ceremony. We wanted two other songs that were not listed as songs he knew for our ceremony and he was very willing and happy to learn those two other songs which he played beautifully during our ceremony. I am so happy we chose Scott to play live for our ceremony over audio recordings. It added an extra something special to our day and made it feel even more personal. During the planning process Scott was incredibly responsive, professional, and kind.

    Beautiful Music

    We hired Scott to play during the ceremony and reception at an intimate wedding in Lake George, NY. Leading up to the wedding, he was quick to reply to any emails and he was flexible with some last minute changes. He learned to play two special songs for us, which he played during the processional and recessional of the ceremony. It meant a lot for us to hear our favorite songs during such a cherished moment. During the reception, Scott's music was beautiful and it helped create the atmosphere we had envisioned for our special day. He was also incredibly kind and highly professional. We would hire him again in a heartbeat!

    Beautiful guitar matches scenic venue

    Scott played guitar for the ceremony and cocktail hour during my fall wedding in Southern Vermont. Scott’s music was the perfect complement to the wonderful fall foliage of Vermont’s mountains. Many of our guests commented on the beauty of Scott’s music.

    Scott did an incredible job learning and performing two songs for our ceremony: The Beatles’ “With a Little Help from My Friends” and The Talking Heads’ “This Must Be the Place.” He also played an excellent rendition of “Canon in D” for my wife’s processional. I couldn’t have asked for better music to match the memorable day.

    Scott was extremely professional and communicative. He provided his own equipment, answered all emails in a timely fashion, and arrived early. Thank you, Scott!

    Everything went perfectly

    Music was absolutely perfect for before, during and after the ceremony. Scott was very responsive when planning and also helpful with suggestions. He can play a wide range of music and also learn any song but we went with classics. Listen to / watch his work - you can't go wrong!

    Wonderful ceremony music

    We had Scott perform all the music for our wedding ceremony in June, 2022 after postponing a year due to the pandemic. He was incredible! Our guests loved the pre-ceremony music, and he beautifully performed our processional and recessional songs which were really meaningful to us. Scott was so easy to work, highly communicative, and professional throughout our two years of wedding planning. We appreciated his adaptability and responsiveness.

    Made Our Day Perfect!

    Scott was very easy to work with and flexible. My wife and I wanted Disney themed songs for our ceremony and he killed it! Scott also provided us a nice mix of music for cocktail hour. He was a big highlight of our special day. When we had to postpone our wedding, Scott was so easy to reschedule with and made the whole process a lot less stressful! He is not a vendor that you will have to check in on a lot. He is professional and organized!

    Wonderful music for ceremony and cocktail hour

    We hired Scott for our wedding to perform ceremony and cocktail hour music. He was wonderful to work with and we really appreciated his flexibility after we had to reschedule our wedding 3 times (thanks covid!). He worked with us to find the right music and had a huge variety of different songs and styles to choose from, from traditional to classic rock. He was also incredibly helpful with the ceremony, providing a mic and stand for our officiant. We can't thank him enough for helping to make the day perfect!

    Scott is brilliant!

    Scott is amazing! Scott is very responsive to email and phone. We had no trouble reaching him and talking logistics through. In terms of music, Scott is no doubt talented and a pleasure to listen to. I loved his choices of songs on my wedding and my guests told me how wonderful he was after. We asked Scott to learn a song for us, and despite asking him so late, he made an arrangement for us and gave it to us after. Please don't hesitate to hire him!

    Wonderful Addition to Our Day

    We hired Scott to perform during our ceremony and cocktail hour. I really can't describe how magical it felt for my husband and I when we walked down the aisle, but Scott's playing was a massive part of that magic. All of our guests raved about the guitar and I can confidently say that the live performance added something extra special to our wedding day. Scott was professional, courteous, responsive, and his playing was top notch. He has a massive repertoire of songs to pick from and was happy to learn new ones when we requested it. I would highly recommend Scott to any couple that is considering a live guitarist for their special day.

    Perfect Set for Elegant Cocktail Hour!

    Scott was a true gentleman, professional and a true talent. He played for our cocktail hour after our wedding and his playlist and quality of music was un-paralleled! The guests were talking about his music all evening and it truly added to the elegance of our Boston North End wedding. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone-you won’t be disappointed but astounded at his music! You could hear every song, but his music didn't overpower the event, rather added to it. Thank you Scott for the wonderful music you added to our wedding day-we will never forget it!

    Excellent and very talented guitarist

    Scott Sanchez played classical guitar music at the reception for my son and his new bride on 10/19/19. Scott was very easy to work with, very talented, and very accommodating. Fees were reasonable, especially for the extremely beautiful music that he provided. The music was at a perfect volume--it could be easily heard, but not overpowering. One of our guests is a nationally known professional pianist and teacher, and mentioned to me that she was very impressed with his musical expertise. In addition to the music, Scott allowed me to use one of the microphones that he had set up so that guests could make some toasts/roasts.

    I would not hesitate to ask Scott to play again at another function in the future.

    Absolutely wonderful to work with!

    Scott was wonderful to work with. He arranged Bruce Springsteen's Thunder Road, and played it as I walked into my venue. I asked Scott to play non-religious music, Beatles, etc... as guests were arriving, and everyone raved about his selections. I couldn't have asked for more. Scott's music was the absolute highlight of the wedding.
