Review Centre: Classical Guitarists

"Ian Kauffman was an absolute pleasure to work with. For couples looking for live music for their ceremony or the reception, Ian is the pro. His glowing reviews are a direct reflection of his work. With little direction, Ian is able to provide clients with an eclectic list of music that brings all age groups onto the dance floor – a serious accomplishment. Not to mention, as a planner, releasing tables to a buffet line can be a stressful task, as you do not want guests waiting in an endless line. This not only demonstrates his flexibility in his services, but also his understanding for tasteful execution. The wedding I coordinated occurred on New Years Eve, so Ian was expected to provide 10+ hours of engaging music – a task he accomplished flawlessly. My bride was extremely satisfied with the outcome as well. I look forward to recommending Ian to my future clients and working with him again. "

"One of the best decisions for our wedding was to choose Miguel as our musician. Professional, attentive, always answers immediately to all your questions, helps you if you ask for advice, you can tell he has experience and has previously worked at weddings. Every detail that my husband and I asked him for, he wrote it down and complied with it on the wedding day. He also knew how to add the Spanish talent that we asked for with his Spanish guitar and he knew how to set the perfect ambiance that we asked for. We recommend Miguel 100% especially for his professionalism and thoroughness when it comes to work. 10/10"

"Hi Alan, Re: Review for our wedding on 01.07.2022 at Old Thorns, Hampshire Alan played for our ceremony and drinks reception. He helped to create the perfect atmosphere on the day and we had so many guests commenting on how brilliant he was. He went above and beyond for us by learning specific songs for our special day on our request. Nothing was too much and he was so accommodating and flexible. It was very easy to communicate with him in the lead up to the wedding and we really appreciate that he worked with us when we had to postpone the wedding due to covid. Would love to book him in the future for any other events we have as a family. Barbara and Tom"

"Pete played for us at Chateau Canet in August as we renewed our vows to celebrate our 20th wedding anniversary. He played everything we’d asked for along with his own pieces. It was soft and intimate until after the ceremony and that’s when the crowd really got involved, everyone was dancing and singing along! He even let a couple from the party play a piece which was great fun. We would DEFINITELY recommend Pete to play for any occasion."

"We were overjoyed! Karla Ruiz gave a super romantic touch to the ceremony, with vocals and guitar. As well as their repertoire, they prepared the two songs that we requested for our entrances and the result was spectacular. Their accompaniment to the cocktail was incredible, finishing their set with some lively rumbas before we moved on to the banquet. The guests absolutely enjoyed their performance and were enthralled by the vocals and guitar! Very friendly and professional, we were delighted to hire them, we would recommend them 100%!"

"Will played at our wedding during the drinks reception and the meal. The music was absolutely stunning and it set the tone perfectly while people were mingling and chatting. We opted for a mixture of well known tunes and some lesser known Spanish themed music and everyone loved it! He is very talented and we were delighted he was there for our day! "

"The combination of virtuosity and emotion in André's playing is rare to find. Every note that comes out of his guitar seems to carry feeling and history. He is a complete musician, with a vast repertoire and impeccable playing. I recommend him to any lover of live music!"

"Adam’s guitar playing was a wonderful addition to the Runnymede and Spelthorne Volunteer Awards. The performance helped to enhance a relaxed ambience and we received positive feedback from a number of our guests who included local councillors, charity CEOs and university students. I would thoroughly recommend Adam for casual and formal events"

"Guillermo is a total pro! Guillermo provided an A+ entertainment experience for our party! He arrived early, well prepared, and brought the perfect vibe - an absolute pro! Coming from a musician myself, I was particularly impressed by his musicality, he is not faking it and that natural Latin flare really comes across in his performance. By the end of the night, everyone was up and dancing to his music! We got many compliments and will be hiring him again. "

"Roger was excellent in every possible way. He literally played a part in what we can only describe as one of the happiest and special days of our lives. He even went to the effort of learning Rita Ora's Anywhere which was playing when Vic proposed to me. He was charming as well as being incredibly talented. We hope to have reason to invite back to a future occasion. Thank you so much Roger! Jo & Vic x x"

"From the first point of contact via e-mail, to the end of our ceremony, Keith was a class act to work with. Not only was he extremely professional in the build up to the ceremony, with great attention to detail, but his vast knowledge of music and his craft meant that he was completely unphased by our requests for songs we had chosen to be adapted for Guitar and Cello, even with us making adjustments fairly close to the wedding date. The adaptations themselves were more beautiful than we could have imagined, he clearly has a great deal of experience doing this. The classical and more modern pieces in the repertoire were also a joy to hear and there was certainly something for everyone to enjoy from the song list. All in all, Keith did everything and more to ensure that our day was to be uplifted to a monumental and extremely memorable level. We highly recommend him. Thanks, Keith! Mikey and Lindsey "
