Wedding Ceremony
in Mill Valley, CA
on 06/20/2010
"Les performed during the ceremony, cocktail hour, and dinner portions of my wedding, and did a fantastic job! He performed our first dance beautifully. Leading up to the event, Les was in regular touch to follow up with special requests and ensure that we shared the same vision for how the significant songs should be played. We were really pleased with how detail-oriented and professional Les was, how he transitioned seamlessly with our DJ, and how he was able to remain flexible when our ceremony was unexpectedly delayed. We would recommend him without reservation!"

"Les was great to work with. He was extremely accomodating with my music requests, and he was very easy going. He did an excellent job helping me determine the best music choices for my wedding style. I have also heard so many great comments from wedding guests that praise the music and musician. After the wedding, I found a wedding card from him that he had slipped in to my card box. So thoughtful! Thanks Les!"

"We had Les perform at our wedding ceremony last week, and he was absolutely WONDERFUL to work with. He responded to my emails in a very timely manner ... and he patiently answered all of my questions and special requests. I really appreciate that he sent over an extensive list of songs he could play for our ceremony. His music was just beautiful and when I entered the church and heard "Here Comes The Sun" my eyes welled with tears. I would HIGHLY recommend working with Les on your future events and I look forward to working with him again in the future."

"Les was fantastic! I booked him at the last minute, 2 weeks before my wedding due to some changed circumstances, and he was extremely helpful and accommodating for any of my requests. With just emails communication, he was able to play exactly the kind of songs and mood I was looking for. Would definitely recommend!"
