Cale was an absolute amazing addition to our wedding! From the initial consultation, to the final product, I am so thrilled that we chose him to play violin for our ceremony. Cale was so incredibly professional and even learned a song I requested him to play for our processional, just for our wedding. That to me, is going above and beyond to deliver an amazing customer experience. As a groom, I couldn't be happier with her service. Our guests, many of whom had never been in the presence of a live violinist, were beyond ecstatic to have that experience. Cale is a phenomenal choice if you're in need of a kind, talented musician for your special day!
Cale played violin during my wedding ceremony and was absolutely fantastic! He is an excellent musician and many of my guests expressed how much they enjoyed listening to him play. His music is smooth and adds a lot of emotion to the moment. I'll never forget the song he played when my DH and I exited together. So good! Not only was his music beautiful, but Cale was SO easy to work with -- clear contract, a expansive song list, and responsive via email. Cale was even willing to play an off-list song I requested. He arrived onsite extra early. If you are planning your own wedding like I did, you cannot ask for a better person to work with!
We can not say enough about Cale. He was absolutely wonderful from booking to the day of our wedding. To give him a 5 star rating just doesn't say enough about him. He is professional, poised, talented & very accommodating. He helped to make our wedding a happy, memorable day and everyone of our guests loved him as much as we did. I will definitely use Cale again. When we chose Cale through The Knot naturally we didn't know what to expect but he was above & beyond our hopes & expectations. Wishing you all the best Cale! Alyssa and Michael Sparkes
This was a total last minute booking and I don't think I could have picked a better violist. I had no idea what I wanted my music selection to be. I left it all in Cale Brandon's hands and he couldn't have made the ceremony anymore beautiful! Thank you for being a part of the special day! He's the whole package at one rate!! Book him now!
We chose Cale for our violinist for our recent wedding after searching high & low for a great violist within our very strict budget, and let me tell you- we were extremely pleased. He responded to every text & email promptly, He communicated well & I was able to compose a list of songs that I wanted him to play & he totally went above and beyond in learning these songs for us, since some were not familiar to him. He is very professional, I felt very comfortable after our first conversation & I knew I would not be disappointed. He was well dressed at the wedding which was so important to me, & everyone told us they enjoyed his music. Cale, Thank You Thank You Thank You so much for making the Gordon- Earle wedding that much more special & memorable. Please book Cale you will not be disappointed.
My wedding ceremony was beautiful at the Decatur Courthouse, and Cale and John made it exceptionally amazing. They play so beautifully together. Cale was awesome to work with both before my ceremony and on the day of. Having spoken briefly through emails, Cale called me additionally to give any suggestions, or clarifications as to which songs would be played both before ceremony and during. I am extremely grateful for sharing in such a memorable experience with these professionals. Thank you.
My groom and I were so fortunate to have found Cale and John (his pianist). They play amazing music and have a large selection of songs to chose from. I received many compliments from my guest about this wonderful duo. They were even able to play mine and my husband's first wedding dance song. They were able to accommodate this request in such a short notice. I highly recommend this duo. Their rates were really the best. Thank you so much for everything I will be hiring you again in the future.
This is my third experience with The Knot Musicians. I have never been disappointed and if anything I have been elated - as have all of my guests. Cale was talented, on time, efficient to the genre of music requested, appreciated by everyone, and most of all a delightful personality to work with. Kudos to Cale and Kudos to The Knot. I refer everyone to you. Thank you. Jamie Miles
Played for our ceremony (inside). He required no mic system and projected beautifully through the space. He played as our guests arrived and during the ceremony. He even learned a piece for us that we loved! He was professional and comminuted with us very well during the whole process!!
VERY PROFESSIONAL AND THE MUSIC WAS BEAUTIFUL! CALE PLAYED OUR DAUGHTER'S WEDDING ON 10./28/2017. EVEN WITH THE RAIN AND COLD ON THIS DAY, CALE MADE SURE THAT OUR GUESTS WERE ENTERTAINED AND EVEN MADE THE EFFORT TO PLAY OUTSIDE FOR HER CEREMONY. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND HIS SERVICES!!!
I have to say that Cale Brandon really did an outstanding job playing the violin during my proposal. Cale plays the violin like an angel. My fiancee and I will never forget this special day and Cale made it possible. Forever grateful
Cale Brandon was absolutely amazing throughout the planning and performance. He was very responsive, went the extra mile in performing songs we requested, and put together music for the more obscure songs we requested. He was very easy to work with and very professional. Very nice personality. I would recommend him to anyone!
Our experience with Cale Brandon was nothing short of spectacular. He took initiative and set up and started playing wonderfully. I had a large amount of people comment on how talented he was. He set the perfect mood for the perfect wedding. He kept constant communication from the day he was contacted. Knowing that he had the music covered made the wedding just that much more stress free. Thank you so much for a lovely evening of beautiful music.
Cale was so wonderful to work with prior to and during our wedding. He was very helpful and open in helping me choose and sort out which songs to use before and during the ceremony. The music was so incredibly beautiful and memorable! So many of our guests complimented the music and talent. We are so thankful to Mr. Brandon for helping to make our wedding even more beautiful!
All interactions leading up to the day of the event were very professional and he responded in a timely manner. Mr. Brandon helped us with choosing songs and even took special requests. The day of the ceremony we didn't really get to interact with him a lot (a lot going on) but from the short interaction we had he was very professional. The music was beautiful and we received compliments from all guests and even guests of the park who were not wedding guests. Cale is extremely talented and made our special day so much more special!
