CLIENT FEEDBACK:
Hello:
Darius was a real delight. He was most gracious and provided exactly what the bride had wanted. I would recommend him to ANYONE!!!

Darias' performance was by far the most touching and memerable part of our wedding. He was able to fill in last minute so we were able to keep a very important promise to our son Frankie. When he played the special lulaby we requested I had goosebumps, it sounded even more beautiful than I had remembered. There was not a dry eye in the place. He was amazing. I can't say enough.

Darius was excellent. He was a wonderful part of my wedding - everyone commented on how terrific he was, and how much he added to the ceremony.
He was very easy to work with, allowing me to select music over the phone - a distinct advantage for a busy bride. He played exactly what I wanted, including Ode to Joy, which he had never played before. He also made helpful suggestions and provided feedback to ensure that I selected songs that would convey the joy of the occasion.
He was charming with the children in my party, he looked great in his tartan, and he was absolutely reliable with a minimum of contact and fuss -- very highly reccomended!!! Thank you Darius!!!!
