Amazing part of our ceremony and cocktails

We were looking for an acoustic musician for our ceremony and cocktail hour and are so thrilled we found Ryan. He was able to accommodate requests for our ceremony which added the most emotional and personal touch to our day. He was super responsive and easy to communicate with, and managed the set up and breakdown entirely solo which took stress away from us. Thank you again!

Fantastic!

Ryan did a fantastic job at our wedding. Loads of people told us how great he sounded. He was really helpful with choosing songs to play at different parts of the day, and overall got the song selection spot on. He created a really nice atmosphere during both the ceremony and the reception
