June 25, 2016The ceremony music was PERFECT, just how I imagined it. He's definitely a professional that knows how to phrase the music just so, so it ends and transitions at the right times. We were looking for a guitar and violin duo, and luckily James had a violinist friend he teamed up with for our ceremony music. They did an awesome job, and sounded great on the 2 special songs we requested. He also was able to bring his own amplification equipment. Leading up to the wedding I have to admit he was quite unresponsive at times to my emails (sometimes I needed to send a second follow up email, or wait a whole week for a reply), but in the end he pulled through and totally delivered the day of!
