Jason Hobert - Professional Wedding Guitarist and DJ

If you are looking for something unique your wedding guests will absolutely remember.. hire Jason the guitarist!! He was absolutely amazing from start to finish! All of my guests were raving how beautiful it was. We had Jason at Venice, FL during our prelude as guests were entering the ceremony space and also during cocktail hour. Jason was friendly, professional, punctual, and very talented! Jason was kind enough to send me his song list where I was able to choose what type of songs/genre I wanted during the prelude (slow love songs) and the cocktail hour (upbeat modern contemporary). I would absolutely recommend Jason and will definitely hire him again for another event of mine. (:

We got married on June 17 in St. Pete Beach, but live in the Chicago area so we put a lot of faith in Jason without getting the opportunity to meet with him prior to the wedding, and he exceeding any expectations we could have had! We received so many compliments from guests about him throughout the night (especially when he broke out the guitar for cocktail hour!). Couldn't have been happier to have had the opportunity to work with Jason.

Jason was great to work with, he played guitar beautifully at our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour with all our requested songs. He was then DJ and emcee at our reception and it made for a seamless transition. We even had some hiccups with our dance floor that I later learned he jumped in to help with, we so appreciate it!

Jason was very communicative as soon as I contacted him to book. He was clear with his repertoire and allowed us to choose songs we liked and even add one song that was special to us. Many guests were complimenting us on having such wonderful ceremony music and it's all due to Jason!

Jason was hired as a guitarist for our wedding and cocktail hour. He played beautifully and set the mood I was hoping for the ceremony.

Jason is the best! My godfather who is also a musician was able to play with Jason during the cocktail hour. Our guests loved the combo between the guitar and flute! We also had jason as our DJ as well! He is so good he kept everyone engaged and everyone had a blast! Jason was great with communicating and making sure everything was in line for our big day. We will always be grateful for Jason. Book with him he is amazing!

I just got married on 11/13/21, and was very set on acoustic for my ceremony and cocktail hour. When I came across Jason, I was SOOO impressed with his music and abilities! He was so responsive, and made the planning process so seamless! Everyone at my ceremony and cocktail hour loved the music. He even learned one of my favorite songs Golden Hour for my ceremony. He really made my ceremony special. I highly suggest you book him for your wedding!!

Kirbie A. Jason is an extremely professional guitarist with the ability to ensure any wedding is a success. My father hired him for our outdoor wedding and cocktail hour at the Dubsdread facility October 2021 and could not be happier. With the fabulous 65 degree weather and his easy listening arrangements it was a complete success. I only wish we had allowed more room and more time for everyone to appreciate his talent. Jason is a joy to talk with we looked forward to using his services and hearing him play again.

We hired Jason as guitarist for our wedding ceremony and DJ for the reception. And I couldn’t have been more pleased or happier with his performance in both areas. The wedding guests were blown away with his guitar ensembles during the ceremony, all rave reviews. As DJ he really listened to what songs we wanted played, genres, and played a variety of music for everyone. He paid attention to guests, quickly caught on to what type of songs our guests preferred and really did a wonderful job at keeping people dancing! My father in law even hit the dance floor performing an air guitar - Jason then provided an actual electric guitar for him to live out his rocker dream! Honestly made the night. We had so much fun. He is professional, pleasant, and extremely talented. Jason went above and beyond and we can not thank him enough for being a part of our wedding day.

Jason’s category on the knot can make him a little hard to find if you’re looking for a DJ. I actually found his profile on a gig website when I was looking for a possible acoustic guitarist to play for the ceremony… Luckily he does both! I came back to the knot to try to find him again and look for reviews, all of which were great. We wanted acoustic guitar for the ceremony and cocktail hour because I think it’s such a prettier sound than the more traditional violinist. We also got a little preview by checking out his Instagram. We had the perfect mixture of modern and classical songs for the ceremony followed by all my favorite music during the cocktail hour like Weezer. The best part was that he was also our DJ for the reception and he handled additional up lighting as well. My biggest issue finding a DJ was all the cheesy entertainment companies, it’s just was not our style. We wanted somebody to play music all night and not play host on the mic instead (lol). He was also so nice to our guests who started requesting their favorite songs as the drinks started pouring... I loved having one person who could do ceremony, cocktail hour, reception, and lighting. And he is very affordable. Thank you so much, Jason!

Jason was great to work with! I first met Jason at a wedding expo and heard him playing the guitar- I instantly knew I wanted him to play at our wedding. I wish I got to hear more, but from what I did hear, it sounded great and our guests will really impressed. Jason also did a great job being the DJ. He played the songs that we requested and kept the dance floor going. The price was very fair and we are so happy we chose Jason. I would highly recommend!

Wow, Jason was incredible. He played both acoustic, electric and pre-recorded artists songs we wanted and transitioned through everything for our ceremony and cocktail hour flawlessly. He even learned new Johnnyswim songs that we wanted for our ceremony (he can learn anything!). Music is such a big part of our lives and we couldn’t have been happier with our choice in Jason. We are looking forward to throwing some sort of party just to have him back again!

Jason was early and went straight to work. We had him for the ceremony and cocktail hour and guests ranted about how good he was. While I had pictures being done I could hear him playing and wished I could’ve enjoyed that part more! He learned “part of your world” for me and I couldn’t have been happier! Everything was perfect. I highly recommend him! You will not be disappointed.

We were so fortunate to have Jason’s musical talent for my daughter’s wedding at the Don CeSar on 8/10/2019. He played acoustic guitar for the ceremony as well as the cocktail hour! It was easy to contact him and he has different packages to choose from, based on what you need. He plays an extensive list of songs.....customized for the occasion. Jason made our day so special!

Jason was the perfect mix between guitarist and DJ. The guitar during the ceremony was so beautiful. Music flowed nicely through cocktail and reception. There was always someone on the dance floor. Thank you Jason!

Jason went above and beyond for my recent May 10, 2019 wedding in St. Pete! We had to move our reception inside last minute because of the rain; and Jason worked tirelessly to move his equipment to the new location quickly - nobody even noticed! Our ceremony music was beautiful, and everyone loved the acoustic guitar as a nice touch. During our reception, Jason was an excellent MC/DJ and got our party started. He kept to our timeline and made sure everything ran smoothly - he's such a professional and definitely was a huge part of making sure our wedding went smoothly. It was a beautiful day, and we are so glad we hired Jason!

Jason is certainly multi-talented!! He provided beautiful acoustic guitar music for our wedding ceremony on the pier at sunset and then became our DJ at the indoor reception that followed, all at beautiful Bon Appetit in Dunedin, FL! Jason made the planning process easy by offering a list of music choices for the ceremony. It included a wide variety of traditional, classical and contemporary. He did the same regarding options for the reception and was very helpful in formatting a timeline for the event. We were encouraged to make additional requests as well. Jason also added a nice touch of color with the up lighting he set up in the banquet room. We received many compliments about his guitar performance! And the dance floor was occupied the entire evening! I had first heard Jason perform at a friend’s wedding and knew then that I would seek him out. He is very talented, professional and knowledgeable. He is also prompt with all communication. Thank you Jason for taking all the stress out of planning the music and for making our day even more special! Monika R

Jason was so easy to work with for my wedding. I found him pretty quickly online with the great reviews he already had and I'm so glad I chose him! He is SO talented and played so beautifully for my ceremony and cocktail hour. It went so well with the venue; very romantic. The guests loved his music choices and playing and thought he was easy on the eyes too ;) He was quick and easy when communicating and always got right back to me. Honestly, he was the easiest part of the wedding planning process for me and I was relieved to find he played just like he does on his website. It's nice to not have to worry about anything on your wedding day and if you book Jason, he is one less thing to worry about; he will play you exactly what your looking for. Not to mention, he provides the microphone, stand and speaker for your officiant which was amazing. I was sad that I only got to say hello to him on my wedding day since we were busy taking pictures, but I heard him all around the venue and it was beautiful. Don't hesitate to book Jason!! He is well worth it for your special day.

Jason Hobert was such a joy to have as a part of our wedding! He was so accommodating and responsive to every request we had! Jason was there for our Ceremony, Cocktail Hour and DJ for the Reception. He learned an acoustic version of a song for our exit from the Ceremony that turned out wonderfully! He is so talented and sweet, and he was a wonderful addition to our wedding team! We would highly recommended him!

Jason was early which was fantastic considering my wedding was in Winter Park! He was friendly and professional. He set up my ceremony exactly how I wanted going between acoustic to a particular MP3 I wanted played as I walked down the aisle. All my guests were raving about how fantastic he was during part of my reception with his song choices and amazing playing. I would suggest him to anyone who wants acoustic at their event!

Dear Jason I wanted to thank you for all you did for our wedding this past Saturday morning ! My family and I are beyond grateful for your time, talent, and efforts that you put into making our day beyond what we ever thought was possible! We can't express how much your music influenced the whole impact of the ceremony and cocktail hour for us and our families. Each song for the ceremony was beautiful and meant so much to us. Your music for the cocktail hour was perfect for the setting and we appreciate your friendly personality especially with the little ones in attendance! You definitely had some little fans when you played frozen and aladdin :) You were a huge part of what made our day the perfect day and I can't thank you enough ! Best wishes to you, Carina and Joe

We hired Jason for our ceremony music, cocktail hour, and to DJ the reception. He did a great job. Sometimes DJs at weddings are hit or miss, but we had so many compliments on how good Jason was. The acoustic guitar for our outside ceremony and cocktail hour made for the perfect addition to the setting. He even took a request from my 2 year old niece to play Frozen's "let it go" during the cocktail hour. We could not be more pleased with the job he did!

Jason provided prelude, processional, and recessional music as well as a wireless microphone and speaker for my Rabbi at my wedding this past weekend (2/4/17). Booking with him was very easy; he’s professional, timely in his responses, flexible, and priced very reasonably. He is able to play a wide variety of songs (and we definitely requested those on opposite ends of the spectrum) and many of my guests have mentioned how much they enjoyed him in the four days since our wedding. My day-of-coordinators said he was a joy to work with... it’s obvious he is booked often and is very good at what he does. I will always remember hearing such a special song to my husband and I on the beautiful acoustic guitar as I walked down the aisle with my parents on my sides. Thank you so much for that, Jason! Highest recommendations from my husband and I.

Once I heard Jason Hobert - Professional Guitarist play, I couldn’t imagine anyone else filling the role at our wedding. He stands out against all other options and his music is nothing short of magical! Jason resides in Tampa, but was willing to travel to Deland to play instrumental guitar during our wedding (acoustic) and our cocktail hour (acoustic and electric) and he then MC/DJed for our reception. Jason was easy to communicate with throughout the whole process and when it came time to decide which songs to play during the ceremony, Jason was extremely helpful in guiding us. He even agreed to learn two songs that were special to us—both played at our ceremony! In fact, I was so excited about hearing Jason play, I insisted on hiding behind a door 15 minutes before I would walk down the aisle just so I could secretly listen! I didn’t want to miss a chord! Beyond his incredible talent, Jason is an absolute professional. He arrived early, stayed beyond his scheduled time and was incredibly personable—both to our guests and also our other vendors! Jason creates fans wherever he plays! In fact, he is the winner of Wedding Wire’s “Couple’s Choice Award”, which means he is in the top 5% nationally reviewed musicians! Jason is beyond talented! I just cannot rave enough about how incredible he is. We felt lucky to snag him for our wedding and we recommend him to others without hesitation! He’s a class act and we hope we have the opportunity to hear him play again soon!

Jason was absolutely incredible from contact to performance. He was able to accommodate everything I asked. It was an absolute pleasure to work with Jason!

Jason was apart of our wedding on 10/29/2016, and made our night absolutely perfect! From the beginning to the end, it was awesome! Jason is very talented, and was complimented greatly on how beautifully he played during my ceremony and cocktail hour. I loved every minute of it! Also, his choice of music was great! Everyone enjoyed having him apart of our wedding, and I couldn't be more pleased that I chose Jason. He made part of my wedding planning easy as it came from beginning to end!

I am so happy I chose Jason as our ceremony musician!! He showed up earlier than expected to set up and provided my officiant with a mic and stand. He played 3 songs during the ceremony which sounded beautiful and provided us with an hour of cocktail music. He played outside on the venue patio and I heard nothing but great things about him! I truly recommend him, he made our day even more beautiful!
