Great service and really made my wedding proposal awesome
Sandra played for me when I proposed. She did a fantastic job. She was prompt in her responses and listed to me with a lot of patience. She had even practiced and sent me a sample of the songs I had requested her to play. She definitely made the proposal more special and memorable. Totally recommend her for any event.
Cassandra played beautifully, and was punctual.
Casandra was fabulous. I asked for Sinatra Era and Easy Rock and she nailed. My party guests raved about her.
Cassandra did great playing for our wedding ceremony! She has a list of songs that she’ll send you as suggestions, but she also learned one song for us that we really wanted in our ceremony! She also checked in periodically & played beautifully!
Cassandra was very thorough and conscientious. She and her husband provided beautiful music for our daughter's wedding.

I take requests. I do not have a specific lists of songs because I play whatever is asked of me. I have played anything from classical pieces by Bach, to top Billboard hits from artists like Ed Sheeran or Shawn Mendes, to fiddle pieces like the "Devil Went Down to Georgia."
If you are interested in booking me for a wedding, I do have a Song Suggestion List if needed. This is a list of songs I have played before or are often requested at weddings. If you get stuck in your musical planning process, this list can help or inspire your choices. I always let my clients know that they can always veer from the list!
