  • The Perfect Live Acoustic Guitar for our Wedding

    Verified review
    Anna H.Jan 11

    Sebastian was an absolute joy to work with and made our wedding day truly special. From the start, he was incredibly responsive and punctual, which gave us so much peace of mind. He helped us choose the perfect songs and vibe for our ceremony, working through every cue to ensure everything went smoothly. We chose Canon in D, Can’t Help Falling in Love, and Just the Two of Us for the ceremony, and he carried that same beautiful energy seamlessly into our 2-hour cocktail hour. It was so helpful that Sebastian curated the rest of the music based on the songs we provided—it was the perfect acoustic guitar style we were looking for: balanced, beautiful, and never cheesy or overdone. If you're looking for an incredibly talented, professional, and thoughtful musician, I couldn’t recommend Sebastian more. He truly made our day unforgettable!

    Having Sebastian play the guitar for our wedding was everything we could've asked for. We had a very small wedding and as huge music lovers, we knew the guitar would deliver all we needed for our ceremony. Sebastian took our requested songs, some modern and electronic-leaning, and he interpreted them beautifully to fit the intimate setting. We are both grateful for Sebastian's expertise and professionalism through every step.

    We hired Sebastian to play guitar during our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour, and he was fantastic. From the moment we reached out to him, he was extremely responsive and easy to work with. He provided a repertoire of songs to choose from and even learned two new songs that were meaningful to us, making our day feel extra special. On the day of the wedding, Sebastian was punctual and professional. His performance was flawless, creating the perfect ambiance for both our ceremony and cocktail hour. If you’re looking for a talented and reliable guitarist for your wedding or event in the Bay Area, we wholeheartedly recommend Sebastian. He truly helped make our day unforgettable!

  • Small wedding ceremony with Sebastian

    Sebastian played for our small wedding ceremony in a regional park last week. Prior to our event, he was easy to communicate with and responsive. He showed up exactly on time and enhanced the ambiance of the day. Our guests shared with me that they enjoyed listening to him play leading up to the ceremony and as they visited and took photos afterwards. Sebastian's demeanor was calm and pleasant, he seemed happy to be there and not rushed at all. Would highly recommend booking him, probably my favorite addition to our small wedding.
