INQUIRE ABOUT HIRING BEN:
What People Are Saying:
“Not enough good words can be said about Ben. We hired him to play our wedding and cocktail hour in September and he was exceptional. When I was unsure of the best music for the ceremony, Ben got to know us. He asked questions about the atmosphere we wanted, our musical tastes, and how we wanted the music to enhance our special day. We were so impressed by his talent, the selection of music, and how he was able to capture everything we wanted. The music was a true representation of us. I highly recommend Ben for whatever occasion you’re celebrating. He will help you make it everything you ever dreamed!.”
-Lauren Kiesewetter, married September 6, 2020
“Ben is a fantastically talented musician and we were so happy with how his playing enlivened our wedding. He was incredibly easy and pleasant to deal with, and he happily took on the task of adapting our quirky song choices for our ceremony into truly beautiful, unique arrangements that fit perfectly in the intimate wedding space. After the ceremony, Ben seamlessly transitioned to cocktail-hour mode – we wanted a fun, salon-like atmosphere and he pulled that off beautifully. So many of our guests have commented on the live music and how special and joyful an addition it was to the day. And we couldn’t agree more! Thank you so much, Ben!”

“Ben has consistently provided the perfect accompaniment to our wine tasting events. Whether playing some jazz essentials or a more inspired selection, the diversity of his music works for groups of 250 equally as well for events for 75. No matter the occasion, Ben’s performance enhances the aesthetic and helps create a perfect experience for our attendees. Highly recommended!”

“I’m so pleased to have hired Ben for my wedding. If I could sum up the experience of working with him in a single word, it would be “accommodating.” He was easy to communicate with, prompt in his replies, and open to my requests. I was looking for a particular sound—vintage swing and jazz on classical guitar—and Ben reassured me he could (you guessed it!) accommodate. I’m impressed with his ability to tailor his music to the different kinds of ambiance and emotion I wanted for all the parts of my ceremony. My only regret is that, as the bride, I couldn’t enjoy more of his performance as I was the last down the aisle! Thanks for contributing to such special memories, Ben.”

“Ben played for our wedding in June and he was the absolute best choice. His professionalism was superb and his musicality was exceptional. All of our guests loved the music he provided and so did we. Thank you for making our day so special!”
