ose him again. He has all his guitar songs memorized, so he is able to play outside without worrying about the wind blowing sheet music. He excels at communicating with his prompt and thorough emails. And he comes early to the wedding to discuss when to begin playing and how the processional will go. We highly recommend Jim as a wedding guitarist!

s well. We had originally planned on having our event outdoors but rain forced us inside. I was a bit worried that the music might be a bit overpowering indoors, but it was exactly the right loudness and filled the space beautifully. I highly recommend Jim!

gestions. He was also very accommodating with our own requests for music not on his repertoire list. His music at our ceremony was also lovely- it was a very memorable experience, and we are still getting complements on his music from our friends and family. If we had to do this over, we would choose him again.
