    Beautiful Music!

    Brandt Jacobus is an extremely talented musician. His classical guitar performance for our wedding ceremony was nothing short of magical. He composed original songs that captured the essence of our love story, and his talent set the perfect mood for our wedding. A true professional, he made our day unforgettable. Thank you, Brandt, for the beautiful music and memories.

    Brandt was amazing!!

    Brandt was an incredible guitarist for our wedding day! He was recommended by our DJ RedShoe and he did not disappoint. We spoke on the phone several times before the wedding so that he could play some sample songs for my entrance, and he was so patient and kind. All of our guests complimented his music, and the percussionist he brought during cocktail hour was amazing as well! Thank you Brandt for making our wedding day so special.

    Brandt, expert at romantic vibes

    Brandt was an absolutely stellar provider to work with, through and through. His brand drew us in, his professionalism sealed the deal, and his music and expertise created the perfect romantic vibe at our wedding. Our special day was in San Diego with a backdrop of beach and sunset, and Brandt breathed beautiful life & music into the whole ceremony and cocktail hour. He discussed our wants beforehand, brought his own ideas, and and brought our vision to life. Our guests kept asking about him. We cannot thank him enough.

    Fabulous Musician!

    Brandt is very talented and extremely nice. He was a pleasure to work with and very professional. Everyone loved him! He created a personalized experience that was wonderful. Not only is he an incredible musician, he made everything easy, from picking the music to how he setup so the sound would be great. So glad our wedding coordinator recommended him!!

    Wonderful!

    From the day we first contacted Brandt, he was extremely professional and a delight to work with. He was flexible with our plans throughout the process and the day of our wedding. He sent us options of cover songs we asked for, playlists suggestions and made us feel extremely assured of everything. Our guests were very impressed with him and he was the perfect acoustic guitarist for our special day!

    Magical and Romantic!

    Brandt is AMAZING! From day one we knew we had found a gem and we were not going to be disappointed. He was so professional and caring. He truly made us feel that our wedding was just as much his experience as it was ours. From his constant contact and communication to his lovely music and inspiration. Then the BIG day came and so did he! He made the ceremony magical and romantic! Just what we wanted. Then he warmed the hearts of our guests during the cocktail hour! Brandt! You are truly a beautiful soul and we we’re blessed to have you! Thank you again and again! I can’t wait until our next event. Until then!

    Amazing and talented musician!

    From the first time I requested a quote until the day after my wedding Brandt was incredibly responsive with all of his communication, which for me was greatly appreciated. He spends as much time as you need to talk you through the vision he has for your event, and also takes your ideas and thoughts and mixes them with his own to provide a beautiful musical experience. Brandt played guitar and also brought a percussionist for our wedding cocktail hour and then also played music for our procession down the aisle. Everything he did was truly amazing and I could see how much care he took in his work and providing the best experience he possibly could. i would recommend Brandt to anyone who is wanting a talented musician for an event.

    Majestic Musician for Our Special Day

    Brandt Jacobus is one of a kind! His music truly engaged the audience and flowed so seamlessly with our ceremony. Throughout the evening, our wedding guests constantly raved about how beautifully Brandt played guitar. Not only is he talented, but Brandt is also one of the sweetest humans you could possibly work with! We really enjoyed getting to know Brandt better throughout the wedding planning process. He made our wedding so unique and special, and it really felt like the music he played was meant for us. Thank you so much Brandt for all that you have done for us! We love you!
    xoxo Love, Kelly & David

    Great Experience!

    Brandt did a phenomenal job at our wedding on September 1st at Terranea! Guests told us that they were so impressed with his playing. He did all of the music for the ceremony and cocktail hour, and for a bit of dinner and it was beautiful and perfect with the setting. His music really helped make everything feel that much more special.

    Throughout the planning process, he was professional and helpful. We absolutely loved working with him.

    He’s incredibly talented, and we feel very lucky that he was there on our big day!

    Extremely Talented, Kind & Professional

    Brandt and his team were so wonderful to work with from the very first call. He helped guide me and also took my ideas with tons of patience and brought them to life (we requested Ultra Light Beam by Kanye West on the guitar + violin for our processional and they crushed it!). I'm sad I missed his performance during cocktail hour because we were off taking pictures but all our our guests raved about them. Thank you thank you for being such a delight to work with - you are a true talent that added such a special touch to our wedding. Can't wait to work with you again in the future!

    Brandt is the BEST!

    Brandt was such a pleasure to work with! He truly is the BEST! We heard of him playing for weddings, and we wanted to book him right away, especially after seeing his website and busy schedule! My husband and I couldn’t be happier. Brandt played for our wedding ceremony, as guests were entering, as well as during the ceremony, and after. He was more than accommodating, and was super friendly to work with. We knew we wanted the acoustic guitar, but weren’t sure about song choice. Brandt made the perfect suggestions and was super communicative during the process. We just adore him and our guests really enjoyed him too! He really made our special day magical and was totally worth it. We highly recommend Brandt!! Book in advance because this guy is popular!!!

    Amazing music and fantastic addition to our wedding

    From the first phone call to the follow up after the wedding, Brandt was top notch. He played amazing music for our 275 guests and everyone loved him. They talked about some songs he played for weeks after the wedding. He really added a great live music feature to our cocktail hour and people very much enjoyed that while enjoying their cocktails. The guy shreds on the guitar and his percussionist also played the large bongos well! Would highly recommend using Brandt for your event!

    Magical and exquisite!

    Brandt makes a “special “ occasion “magical”! If every vendor could be as professional and kind as Brandt, the world would certainly be a better place. It was my pleasure and honor to work with Brandt. You would be amiss not to have him!

    Brandt brings energy, passion and talent!

    One of the best decisions we made for our wedding was hiring Brandt as our ceremony and cocktail hour musician. He brought energy, passion and talent to our wedding. I have two favorite memories from working with him. The first was when we first connected. I was sitting on a bench on Lafayette Street in New York while face-timing Brandt, and he was playing different versions of my wedding ceremony song that he learned specifically for me. The second was when I walked out to my wedding cocktail hour and looked over to see Brandt and his percussionist just having the time of their lives, playing with contagious energy for our wedding guests. I'm truly grateful for the opportunity to have worked with him and experienced his music on such a special day in my life.

    Romantic Music for a Perfect Dream Wedding

    Brandt's talent with music is extraordinary. He worked with us to craft exactly what we wanted on our wedding day and blended it to fit our scene, theme and personalities. He played Can't Help Falling In Love by Elvis, and it was so beautiful, emotional, romantic even with just one guitar. He even learned a new song for us, Sugar by Maroon 5, which turned out soo pretty, up beat, and exactly what I was going for as we closed out the ceremony. He gave us beautiful romantic music from ceremony to the cocktail hour and to the end of the last dance. Delivered his promises perfectly, and even managed our playlist at reception. I cannot say enough good things! Thank you Brandt!

    Brandt was so wonderful he is very responsive and took the time to go over music selections with my husband and I for our wedding. He is super talented and all of the guests loved him. We also hired his co worker to play violin she was exquisite as well. Thank you Brandt !!!

    Book Brandt Now!

    Brandt was absolutely amazing, and truly went above and beyond to make our day special. He was professional and so easy to work with during our planning conversations. He took time to get to know us as a couple, listened to our wants and expectations, and then exceeded them! We had a guitar and strings duo play during our pre-ceremony, ceremony, and cocktail hour. Our guests kept commenting on how beautiful the music was! He also reached out following the wedding to personally thank us and share how kind our families and guests had been to him on the big day. Brandt will help make your wedding or event special with his amazing talent!

    Brandt is worth every single penny! If you’re looking for a talented and professional musician, look no further! He recently played at our wedding and he was amazing! He set the perfect mood for our wedding. All the guests had nothing but great things to say about him. While I walked down the aisle, he played Can’t Help Falling in Love and it was perfect! My husband, whom is not so easily impressed, loved him! You will not regret hiring him for your event, Brandt is simply the best!

    We loved having Brandt and his violinist Reiko play during our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour on Sept. 2nd, 2017 in Malibu. We were very meticulous about every single detail of our wedding and music was especially important for us as a lot of professional musicians were guests at our wedding. Brandt was first recommended to us by a few people but we assumed that he does mostly Spanish guitar and that was not the vibe that we had in mind for our wedding but upon further discussion, Brandt offered to cater the music style to our particular taste and played more of a contemporary playlist but also added his own flair, personality, and creativity. I had countless friends tell me how amazing Brandt's guitar playing was and how he was able to create the perfect ambiance for our wedding day.

    Aside from Brandt's mesmerizing orchestration and guitar playing, I loved every interaction that we had. My wife was not involved in the planning of the ceremony music because Brandt and I wanted to surprise her with our music selection and orchestration during the ceremony. Once we were pronounced husband and wife, my wife actually started crying during the recessional once she heard what Brandt was playing. We can honestly say that Brandt has become a friend during this process and we were not only happy to have him and Reiko there on our wedding day because of their beautiful playing but also because we were able to share the day with them as our new friends! Do yourself a favor and hire Brandt. It was one of the best decisions that we made for our wedding. Thank you Brandt!

    We found Brandt last minute for our wedding and it was like he was meant to be for us :)! He is very talented, his music is beautiful and all of our guests (including our venue) loved having him perform. If you're looking for beautiful and great quality music for any event I would highly recommend Brandt.

    Music sets the tone for an event and I am SO LUCKY to have had Brandt do that for our wedding ceremony! He recommended and played beautiful songs that our guests raved about. And truly incredible…he did a custom rendition of a classic rock song, per my request, and made it sweet and romantic so that I could walk down the aisle to it! Adding to the amazingness, he prepared it quickly, he only had about 2 weeks notice prior to our wedding! Our wedding was on the beach near a loud highway so speaker set up was tricky but Brandt handled all of it for us, including bringing an extra microphone so that our vows could be heard by all of our 120 guests. He goes above and beyond. He is incredibly talented, yet kind and humble. I can’t say enough about him, he is exceptional in every way. If you need event music, look no further, Brandt is your guy! Thank you Brandt, you’re the best!

    Brandt is SO TALENTED!!! He plays beautiful music and his percussionist complimented our "vibe" perfectly for cocktail hour and ceremony. He understood exactly what we wanted, and recommended some great song selections for us, which we ultimately used. He was easy-going, timely and made the ceremony/ my walk down the aisle so meaningful! Thanks Brandt!
