David and I had talked a couple of times over the phone prior to the wedding date to go through our music selection. I was not able to meet him prior to the ceremony on the wedding day itself, but nonetheless, he was set and ready to go! He was dressed very professionally and played beautifully. It was great that he was able to play a variety of music/instruments including the bag-pipes. I loved it!

David played at our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour. We felt he did an amazing job and he was also very friendly. I would recommend him to any of my friends for their wedding or event.
--Elizabeth W. Malvern, PA 12/23/2006
Words can't express how happy I was on my wedding day when David Cohen played for my beach ceremony and cocktail hour. Everything was beautiful!!! I didn't catch too much of his performance but from what I heard, everyone was very impressed. David also filled my request with changing into a kilt to play the bag pipes for after we were pronounced man and wife. My husband was totally surprised when we turned around and he heard the bag pipes. The look of surprise and happiness on his face right there made my entire day! I would highly recommend David to friends and family. David is very talented and such a pleasure to work with. Thank you!
--Michele K. Spring Lake, NJ 11/19/2006
