Hiring Ben to play classical guitar for my
Wedding was the best decision we could have made. We communicated wishes and expectations beforehand and the night went beautifully! Ben is amazing at what he does and we were so lucky to have him.

Ben was so easy to work with and provided many examples of songs for the procession and made it really easy. He p[provided a great backdrop for our cocktail party and procession!
Thanks Ben!!
