"The scale only goes up to 5? I'd give more stars if I could!
Tavi was the perfect choice for us for our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour. He is exceptionally talented, and also very easy to work with. He gave us some great choices for songs since we weren't sure what we wanted for certain parts of our ceremony. Tavi was also willing to play or learn specific songs if we wanted them. The ceremony music was absolutely beautiful!
Tavi and his fellow musicians also created an incredible atmosphere at our cocktail hour. They were all very talented, and our guests couldn't stop talking about how great they were. 100% recommended!
Thank you Tavi!!!!!"

"Tavi Jinariu is not only an amazing guitar performer but he's also a lovely person! He took the time to meet with us, listen to what we envisioned for the ceremony and played us a few tunes. He knew instantly what we liked and we were blown away by his performance on our wedding day. He was very flexible with moving whereever we needed him, i.e. from the tent playing for everyone to the waterfront where we had the ceremony. It was stress-free, he played beautifully, all the guests loved it. It was a perfect day & he played a big role in it. He played our wedding song beautifully and we are very grateful to him to have made this day so memorable to us. Thank you Tavi!"

"Tavi is an extraordinary talented musician that made our evening one to remember for life. He was extremely accommodating with my requests and his music selection was excellent for the event I had planned.
He was really professional and on time. He arrived early, which made me feel good as I wanted everything to be perfect, and delighted us with beautiful classical guitar pieces.
I can't thank Tavi enough for his great performance, Julie and myself will always treasure that evening.
I highly recommend having Tavi enhance or as in my case make your event possible, with great music.
And I wish him the best in his career and business. Thank you again Tavi."

"Awesome guitar solos for our wedding! The only music for the entire wedding was performed by Tavi and he nailed it. The guitar solos were the perfect romantic music for our intimate ceremony. We selected some songs that Tavi knew and also wanted him to play "And I Love Her" by the Beatles which he needed to learn. It was played during some poems readings and it was beautiful. Our wedding was in Northern California so he had to commute from Southern California. He was on time and professionally dressed. Working with him prior to the ceremony was via email and he was very responsive. Would definitely hire him again! "

"Tavi is more than excellent as a classical guitarist. I first heard him play for the reception of a friend of mine, and as a result knew that I'd like him to perform for my wedding reception as well. His technique is superb, as well as his choice of music. Tavi is unobtrusive and contributes greatly to creating a beautiful atmosphere. He responds quickly to emails/communication. I knew that we would be in good hands and we were!"

"Our event--a church Christmas dinner--invovled a number of different musical needs. Tavi was extremely flexible in working with our in-house musicians. His playing was consistently excellent on concert pieces, soloist accompaniment, and corporate carols. Not knowing Tavi previously, I wasn't sure what someone with so much talent would be like. Just a few mintues of discussion after the concert revealed great character, a love for his craft and a genuine desire to bless our people. Wow. Tavi was worth every penny. He made our night richer and more special. I heartily recommend him as both musically-accomplished and the epitome of humility and grace. "

"Tavi was absolutely amazing. He arrived promptly, and it was obvious from the beginning that he is a very accommodating gentleman. He provided the perfect atmosphere for our holiday luncheon. His musicianship was nothing short of superb, and his song selections were very appropriate for our event.
As coordinator for the event, I received numerous comments from attendees who thoroughly enjoyed Tavi's performance. Many inquired about his contact information for future events.
Most of all, Tavi came across as a humble and extremely talented individual with a huge heart. We look forward to having him perform on future occasions.

"I searched through many guitarists to make the selection and I could tell from listening to his samples that Tavi was a great musician. He also turned out to be very accommodating and helpful in scheduling, communicating, playing the music we wanted, showing up in plenty of time, and fitting in smoothly with the party. Our guests were so happy with his music. The way he sounded in the samples was the way he sounded in person. I recommend him without qualification."

"I couldn't have been happier with the music at my daughter's wedding. Tavi Jinariu is an extremely talented musician in addition to being a very nice person and exceptionally professional. He arranged a version of "The Bridal Chorus," and "The Wedding March," with a Latin flair just as my daughter had requested. He also did some pop tunes that she wanted, also with a Latin flair. The music for the wedding could not have been more perfect! I highly recommend Tavi Jinariu!"
