Highlighted review.

Having Ian play cello for our welcome music, processional, and recessional was one of my favorite wedding day details! He made our ceremony so beautiful and romantic. Not only is he talented, but he was extremely easy to work with too - he even went out of his way to join a planning call from out of the country!

Having Ian perform at our ceremony and cocktail hour was one of our favorite wedding details! Music is so important to my husband and I, so having our favorite songs performed beautifully was so special to us. Ian was great to work with from start to finish and helped us put together the perfect setlist, filled with classics and our favorite punk and rock songs. Our guests are still talking about how talented Ian was and how unique it was to have a cellist at our wedding.

Ian was absolutely incredible!! He has such an extensive list of songs he can play beautifully on the cello- from appropriate ceremony songs to super fun cocktail hour songs. We had Ian for our ceremony and cocktail hour, and wish he could have stayed all night. Our friends still talk about him and how talented he is! Very professional, organized, and so easy to communicate with. Thank you so much, Ian!!

Ian played cello for the cocktail hour we had prior to our ceremony, as well as for the wedding ceremony itself. I was pretty stressed out about planning the wedding, but knew there were only two “musts” - Grateful Dead and Queen ( “Don’t Stop Me Now” as we exited) and Ian took on Spotify in human form and created a playlist that pleased all ears. Aside from being incredibly talented, he was incredibly easy to communicate with and professional on all accounts. Need to mention, not in his job description, but his presence proved invaluable in when we were in a pinch and needed an extra set of hands at one point during the evening- speaks to his amazing character. Look no further, call Ian!

Ian performed at our outdoor wedding ceremony and cocktail hour. He was delightful to work with!! He played our requested songs and filled in other songs that fit the vibe seamlessly. His music made the day extra special for us and our guests. Would highly recommend!!
