Joe was great - he was on time, professional, polite, and his selection of music was perfect for the occasion adding an elegant touch to our party.

Joe was wonderful to work with. He made everything very easy for me in planning my wedding music. The music at the wedding was absolutly fantastic. It completely set the mood for our wedding. We could not be happier with how everything turned out!!! Thanks for the wonderful job Joe!!

Aimiable, professional, prompt (got there adequately early to set up and start on time), handled equipment in a swift and efficient way, was never too needy. Excellent working with him.

We so enjoyed having Joe perform at our wedding. The guitar was a beautiful addition to our beach ceremony and the guests all enjoyed his performance!

Joe plays beautifully, he was very accommodating and while I was only going to hire him for brunch, he performed at 2 other events. He is so skilled and can judge the group very well. I cannot say enough good about him. He brought 2 other musicians to one of my events and that jazz trio was amazing. I tried to book him again but my event was too far from his home.

Joe was very prompt and professional. He was a pleasure to work with. We wish he could have played some more modern pieces, but his Latin picks were awesome. Thank you!

Wedding CeremonyReviewed on August 12, 2011From Coronado, CA

Joe was the perfect musician for our intimate beach wedding. He is extremely talented and professional. Even though we had only booked him for a one-hour gig, Joe met with us the week before the ceremony to review song selections. On wedding day, he arrived early, brought a microphone and amplifier for our officiant and readers, and played beautifully before, during, and after the ceremony. I would highly, highly recommend Joe for any occasion!!

Wedding CeremonyReviewed on June 21, 2011From Fallbrook, CA

My husband and I really enjoyed working with Joe Amato. Before the wedding day arrived he was extremely receptive to taking requests from his repertoire list. He also went above and beyond by playing some songs that were not listed and new. His playing was beautiful on the wedding day and we loved hearing our favorites. He arrived on time and took care of his own set up in plenty of time for the event. I would recommend Joe Amato to any of my friends for their special events!

Joe, you were amazing! You were on time, super accomodating and exactly the type of entertainment we were looking for at our wedding!! Thank you so much for your performance and your time on Saturday. We had several comments on how wonderful you were from our guests too.

Joe was great--very talented, interpreted and expressed his music beautifully, we couldn't have asked for more. Also, he was very polite and professional, at the same time engaging. A very refined gentleman. I am so glad we had Joe at our event, which was a very elegant upscale restaurant at a wonderful four star resort. My company is a Fortune 500 company, and if we were to be at San Diego again we would definitely ask Joe to perform for us again in a heartbeat!

Joe made our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour extraordinary!! He is a very accomplished guitarist and is very pleasant. He went out of his way to keep our wedding planning stress down and met us away from his studio due to traffic. I will use him for future events and highly recommend him for any special event.

WeddingReviewed on August 9, 2008From San Diego, CA

Joe Amato played for more than 200 guests as they arrived for a wedding in a private residence. Everyone thought that Joe and his music were wonderful. The guests loved him and he exceeded our expectations. Joe was the right beginning for a wedding that was described as the best ever.

WeddingReviewed on August 2, 2008From Escondido, CA

He arrived early and was open to any changes I had at the last minute. He was friendly and even took time to perform for some of the children at our wedding while they danced. His music was a perfect fit at our wedding.

Joe was amazing and he played beautifully. He added that special touch to our wedding ceremony. I would definately recommend him to anyone looking for an acoustic or classical guitarist.
