Graduation PartyReviewed on May 20, 2014From Milwaukee, WI

Review by Anita V.

Wedding CeremonyReviewed on September 23, 2013From Chicago, IL

Barmey was AMAZING! He replied to all my inquiries in a timely manner (very important to a busy bride). He was the most easy going guitarist out of everyone I considered. He arrived at the perfect time and was all set up. Most of all, he made my ceremony magical. He is not your average guitarist. He's got talent! One of my relatives called him a prodigy! Thank you, Barmey!
