rming between Joshua’s sets. Five starts all the way! Professional, experienced, dependable, highly skilled, and personalized the sets to my desired music (even learning a few for specific moments). Several of our guests commented how great the music was! You’ll love his voice— worth every penny!

His voice and guitar skill set is beyond impressive. All of our vendors, guests, and even random strangers were talking about how amazing he was.
There are not enough descriptive words to express how thankful we are to have had him at our wedding. Highly recommend for a large or small event!

Josh was one of the best vendors we hired for our wedding. I think I had every single guest come up to me and ask for his information and wonder where I found him. He did such a ph...
enomenal job during all aspects of the day. He played for our ceremony, cocktail hour and was the DJ for our reception. We had multiple phone calls with Josh during the planning process and he told us he could pretty much play whatever we wanted during the day! He learned our first dance song and it was better than we could have ever imagined. It’s 3 days later and I’m still getting comments from guests on how great he was! Josh, I want to thank you so much for such a wonderful day and really adding to the National Park/outdoorsy vibe I wanted for the wedding. You were so great and I’m so happy we hired you!

Choosing Joshua Robert for our wedding day music was one of the best decisions we made in our planning. During the ceremony, he played both live, acoustic music as well as the spec...
ific tracks we chose (his timing and fading were perfect!). He even learned to play and sing a new song we requested for my walk down the aisle.
I heard great reviews of his live music during the cocktail hour, and then he transitioned seamlessly into our DJ/emcee for the reception.
He learned and adapted another song for our first dance, and played guitar during a song I sang to my husband. He kept the evening on track time-wise and his song choices to get people dancing were phenomenal.
Hire Joshua Robert for your wedding, you won't regret it!!

Josh Robert was absolutely phenomenal in every respect. He was easy to work with and eager to be at our event. He was a phenomenal musician and several of our guests wanted to hire...
him for their own events. Not to mention our photographer was late to show up and Josh stepped right up to take photos and helped in so many ways that we are forever grateful. Anyone would be lucky to have him part of their event!

Josh played and sang prior to our wedding ceremony while all of our guests were being seated and also played and sang for all of the entrances for our wedding ceremony. Of course I...
asked him to sing his version of 'Never Stop' and he sang this while the groom was walking each of our mothers down the aisle. Hearing this and seeing this prior to my entrance is definitely something that I will never forget! So good! We also asked him to sing 'Talladega' for the groomsmen walk out song, 'Wildflowers' for the bridesmaids walk out song, and 'I Cross My Heart' for my walk out song. I was completely blown away with how talented and absolutely incredible he is! We were in love with our songs and the way he sang each of them. It was definitely the best day and it was made that much better by his playing and singing - it was just what we both wanted! It was perfect.
We received so many compliments about him and our ceremony and a lot of people said that it was the most meaningful and heartfelt ceremony that they have ever been to. I really feel that Josh was a huge part of that!
Josh also played for some time during our cocktail hours. I only wish that I could have been there for that as well!
We are so happy that you played and sang at our wedding! Thank you so much!!!

'd. He has an absolutely incredible voice - My husband and I actually went out of our way to see him play different gigs a few times prior to the wedding. The entire dance floor was full and alive from beginning to end, as he is very talented at reading his audience. I would (and have) 100% recommend Josh to anyone getting married.

Joshua is the real deal!!!
After months of searching for the right musician for our wedding, we couldn't be more thrilled that we found him.
My husband and I hired Joshua to come ...
all the way to The Outer Banks of NC to play acoustic for our ceremony & cocktail hour and then DJ our reception. He absolutely blew us away!
Not having ever seen him play live, we weren't sure if he would sounds as good in person as he does in his demos...he DOES!
Not only is his voice incredible, but our first dance song wasn't the usual and he was happy to learn it for us. I couldn't have been more thrilled even if Jason Isabell was there to sing it in person. It was perfect!
I've been a professional wedding photographer for 12 years, and he is by far the best musician I have ever seen.
I had numerous guests comment, "where did you find this guy...he is incredible!"
He was great at reading the dance floor when DJing and had listened to our guidelines of what we like and what we didn't want played.
I would recommend him in a heartbeat!!!

at my husband and sister-in-law went to high school with him, so we got the opportunity to become friends through this process. Not only is Josh an amazing musician, but he is a wonderful person and will do ANYTHING to make your day perfect. He played during our ceremony and then our first dance at the reception. I only wish we would have booked him for the rest of the evening so that I could hear him play more! There are not many musicians that play newer music around the Cleveland area, but there are definitely not any musicians around the area who play at the caliber of Josh. Even our videographer couldn't stop raving about him! He is one of a kind and made our day even more special than I ever thought it could be.
