Amazing, Reliable Professional

I first met Jessica at a 2nd birthday party for a friend's daughter. She dressed up as my favorite Disney Princess, Snow White, and had a lineup of activities to entertain the kids. The moment I heard her perform songs while playing her guitar, I knew her exceptional talent would be perfect for my own daughter's 1st birthday party. Jessica was a pleasure to work with and exceeded my expectations as a performer/entertainer. She is your one-stop shop for any event, from kids birthdays to adult soirées. She can even accommodate the party theme by dressing up in costume! At our party, she did face-painting, conducted a treasure hunt, and shared her beautiful singing voice wrih our guests. Everyone was impressed with everything she did - especially her live performance! Jessica is beyond amazing and we can't wait to work wih her again!

Absolutely beautiful!

Jessica played during our wedding ceremony, cocktail hour & dinner a few weeks ago. She was absolutely beautiful! Several of our guests came up to me and said how much they enjoyed her. Even our first dance song - which was an Adam Sandler song - sounded so elegant and beautiful when she sang it.
She was so easy to work with - very responsive to both emails and phone calls. She worked directly with our coordinator for her set-up needs which ended up being in 3 places, not 2 like I originally thought - but she handled it like a pro. Our evening was perfect and she set the right mood for everyone to enjoy themselves. Can't recommend her enough!

2 thumbs way UP

She was awesome. Relates to everyone in the crowd, from 1-100. Equally fantastic on both guitar and paino! Reliable, professional, and truly gifted.

Beautiful

Jessica was hired to sing a few songs at the memorial service for my father. She was very professional and respectful of the solemn occasion yet lifted it with her voice. Her pure singing, accompanied by her guitar, made for a very memorable service. I can highly recommend her.
