We hired Gateway Guitar to play at our ceremony and they absolutely nailed the performance. They were also easy to communicate with beforehand which removed a ton of stress from the planning process. I'd highly recommend them to anyone looking for a guitar duo for their wedding!
I cannot recommend Gateway Guitar enough! They played during the cocktail hour at my wedding, and their performance perfectly matched the vibe. They sounded incredible, and played at the perfect volume, adjusting to the environment when needed. I'll definitely book them again for future events. If you're thinking of booking them, do it—you won’t regret it!
Our wedding day would not have been complete without Gateway Guitar!! They were recommended by our wedding band as our ceremony music. From the beginning, we had quick responses and they gave their input on what music they recommended. I had a vision of what song I wanted to walk down the aisle to and they turned it into a magical moment for myself and our guests. I highly recommend them!!
Very quick responses to questions, helpful in song planning, and early for the ceremony set up. We could not have asked for better service and would highly recommend Gateway Guitar!
We loved having Gateway Guitar ensemble at our ceremony and reception, it added a fantastic touch to our magic day!! They prefectly played 3 songs we requested that were not in their repertoire. Very professional and talented artists!
We were left scrambling to re-plan/re-organize our wedding during COVID-19 pandemic. One thing was for certain, we wanted to be married no matter what. Kelly and Grant helped make that happen by providing beautiful music for our intimate ceremony AND learning our first dance song, per request. They were responsive, punctual, and professional. We are forever grateful for their skills :)
One of the BEST decisions we made while planning our wedding was to have gateway guitar play our ceremony. Kelly was so easy to work with, they played the songs we wanted and even learned ones that we special requested. It made our ceremony so much more personal. We had multiple guests compliment on how lovely the music was, and it turned out to be one of our favorite parts of the day.
Gateway guitar did our ceremony music and they were awesome! They learned two songs for us and also played at our cocktail hour. The music was beautiful and they were wonderful to work with! Highly recommend.
If I could give them 10 stars, I would. They made this the easiest and least stressful part of planning the wedding. The music was beautiful and fit perfectly in the flow of the ceremony. I had many compliments by our wedding guests on how well they played and the song choices. They were amazing! I highly recommend them!
Leading up to the big day, Kelly at Gateway Guitar was extremely communicative, professional and accommodating. She took the time to talk with me via email as well as over the phone to make sure all of my questions were answered. We knew the duo would be a perfect fit for our wedding ceremony in The Jewel Box.
They very flexible, even learning 3 new songs for us. After the ceremony, I had several friends and family members comment on how impressed they were with the talented guitarists.
Gateway Guitar is the perfect choice if you're looking for a unique and elegant touch for your big day. Plus, they were extremely affordable! Highly recommended.
Grant and Kelly are too good for words. They were the easiest part of planning our November wedding, for sure. My husband had a brief conversation with Grant on the phone and we knew that they would be perfect. They not only kept in great contact, but even learned specific sheet music for the songs we requested. Honestly, if you want something different than a string quartet for your ceremony, give them a call. G & K will NOT disappoint.
Thank you for making our ceremony that much more unique and special Gateway Guitar!
Gateway guitar played last weekend at our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour and they were great! So easy to work with and the perfect sound we were searching for!
We had Gateway Guitar play at our Wedding Ceremony in the Old Cathedral under the Arch. Grant and Kelly performed and made our Wedding even more special! I would recommend them to all of our friends. Huge thank you and kudos to Gateway Guitar! Don't hesitate to book Gateway Guitar for your special day.

Grant + Kelly excelled -- from our initial conversations, the flawless execution of our service, to them learning a song dear to us for the procession. Incredible two piece acoustic guitars made our ceremony, and the experience, one to remember and cherish for a lifetime.
We decided rather late in our wedding planning that we wanted to have live musicians play at our outdoor venue. Grant and Kelly Krener of Gateway Guitar were not only available and accommodating, but their services were also very reasonably priced. And although they did not require us to do so, we paid them in full before the day of our event. When it came to selecting a playlist we had no issues whatsoever; Grant and Kelly had a variety of pieces for us to choose from and were willing, time permitting, to learn other arrangements should we have wished. The weather was being rather uncooperative on our actual wedding day, and heavy rain was a serious possibility. We ultimately decided, however, that we were going to risk the outdoor ceremony no matter what, and when Grant and Kelly arrived they were willing to take that risk with us. As an amateur guitarist, I recognize that they were risking their equipment to meet our needs and desires, something that speaks to their level of dedication and professionalism. They required little input from us to get set up and they were ready to play very quickly. Their performance was excellent. Without being overpowering they played at a volume level that all of our guests could hear at our outdoor location. Their music was warm and beautiful; it fit the mood of our ceremony perfectly. We would not hesitate to hire Gateway Guitar for another event, and we highly recommend them to anyone who is looking for professional, courteous, and reasonably priced musicians who can add a special touch to any wedding day.
Grant and Kelly played at for our wedding and cocktail hour at our October 2012 wedding. They were amazing! We picked a couple songs that were not on their song list and they learned them for our event! We got a lot of compliments from our guests about how great their music was and how they have never seen a guitarist duo at a wedding before and they loved it! The ceremony music was very beautiful and the cocktail music was perfect and "swanky" as one of our guests told us! They definitely made our wedding "cool"! Thank you!!!
Grant and Kelly were so great! I only got to correspond with them by e-mail leading up to the wedding, but their responses were quick! They have a great library of songs already, and they learned a new song at my request. The price is great, and having 2 guitarists is a little unexpected. I highly recommend!
Grant and Kelly were a great fit for our intimate ceremony. The music was beautiful and they even arranged a specific song at our request! The guests really enjoyed the music through the ceremony and the cocktail hour. They were also a joy to work with leading up to the wedding - very responsive by phone and e-mail and willing to work with you to get exactly what you want. Bonus - very reasonably priced.
Gateway Guitar was amazing! Very professional and inexpensive. They did a beautiful job with the ceremony music at our wedding.
