Great music - just set expectations

Bob is a super talented musician and really set a great vibe for our wedding — everyone had a blast dancing and enjoying the music! He definitely made himself at home, though — took a few more breaks than planned, enjoyed some beers, and didn’t say no to cake (who could blame him?). Overall, he kept the night fun and lively, we’d just recommend setting clear expectations ahead of time so everyone’s on the same page.
Edit: Bob, thanks for following up. To clarify, the 4-star review wasn’t because you didn’t extend your set — but you also weren’t willing to when we asked nor did you ask for additional compensation to do so. You just packed up and left. Additionally, you took a break, played three songs, then took another break. During that time, the energy dipped, guests started losing interest, and we had to ask our day-of coordinator to have you get back on stage.
As a side note, when we spoke on the phone, you had mentioned taking one break halfway through the show, so we were caught off guard by the extra downtime especially given that you had just taken a break.
