Review by Jim O.

Wedding Reception•Reviewed on June 4, 2012•From Sonoma, CA

Mark played at my wedding ceremony and reception and his musical talent and professionalism were excellent. First, his guitar playing is at a very high level and his sense of playing the right song at the right time showed that he has a lot of experience. Beyond that, he really made an effort to help us make our wedding a great experience and really cares about his clients/customer's needs. His flexibility and support were very helpful. I highly recommend Mark!

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on March 28, 2012•From Sonoma, CA

When we arrived at the Depot, Mark was already set up and waiting for the queue to start! Very professionally dressed, professional character and very accommodating to my guests who asked him to play some special request songs. As the bride, I was busy taking photos and running around so I didn't have a chance much to just sit there and listen to Mark, but I know his music was very soothing to my soul and helped calm me tremendously. I would, without a doubt, highly recommend Mark's services to anyone. He was absolutely fabulous!

Mark arrived early to our event even if was pouring outside. He was very professional and friendly. We had him play flamenco music which our guests and our office enjoyed very much. He was very accomodating and was very aware of the acoustics in our office which helps the sounds travel to the entire floor. Great job Mark.

Mark was fantastic! His professionalism and personal attention to the mood of the evening was a perfect balance to his amazing talent. Our guests all commented on how much they enjoyed Mark's playing and music selection. I look forward to hiring him for our next event.

Anniversary Party•Reviewed on October 9, 2011•From Sacramento, CA

We are pleased to provide feedback on Mark Abdilla. From our first communication to the day of our vow renewal, he has been both caring and professional. He was very accomodating of special requests and easily adapted to any last-second changes. We were so pleased on our vow renewal day to have our family members tell us how impressed they were with his performance. Mark is a true master of his craft and a virtuoso on the classical guitar. We loved working with him and we would recommend Mark to anybody else looking for a professional and talented classical guitarist. - - - - Ruben and Amber C.

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on August 5, 2011•From Geyserville, CA

Mark was a spectacular musician for our wedding ceremony. He played all of our requests beautifully and was such a professional! I would recommend Mark to play for any of my friends events, he was so kind, fun, and above all he was an excellent performer.

Corporate Function•Reviewed on June 27, 2011•From San Francisco, CA

Everyone at the event loved the music Mark performed! He is a professional in every sense of the word. Mark arrived on time, and is both talented and attentive to his audience. We could not have been more thrilled with any other performer. We would definitely hire him again.

Anniversary Party•Reviewed on June 12, 2011•From San Jose, CA

Our party was a hit because of Mark's talent. It was a celebration of 25 years wedding anniversary and he arrived on time, set-up was quick and he began playing before our guests arrived; therefore, when guests did arrive the music added to an upbeat party. Many of our guests mingled with Mark after he stopped playing for the evening. Everyone said they had a great time and was impressed with Mark's talent; they went home feeling good about how they spent thier evening. Stephen~

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on May 24, 2011•From Benicia, CA

If there were a level above perfection, that's where i would put Mark. He showed up early, set up quickly and did exactly what we wanted with very little input from us. Our wedding was arranged in a matter of a few weeks and Mark did everything he could to accommodate our needs. I spent some time chatting with him while he was packing up and leaving and he is a very nice guy. Friendly and warm. You would be foolish not to hire Mark for your event. Hope to see you if you make it to Belfast Mark. Take care friend and thank you so much for everything.

Mark was a complete pleasure to work with during our recent company party. Mark was prompt, understood our requirements and was flexible in meeting our requests. I would recommend Mark to anyone looking for a live acoustic guitar performer.

Mark was wonderful! He really went above and beyond to accommodate our music requests. He spent a huge amount of time before the event working through the music so we would be happy. He is a talented, enthusiastic professional and just a really nice guy. HIghly recommended!!

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on October 12, 2010•From Tiburon, CA

Mark's personable demeanor is exceeded only by his musicianship. He played his heart out, and was warm and friendly to all who encountered him. A very talented and dedicated musician, we truly enjoyed meeting him and the other musicians (very cool people!) he played with. They all helped make our wedding even more amazing then I hoped it would be. Thank you!!

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on October 22, 2010•From Santa Cruz, CA

Couldn't be happier. My fiancee (now wife) and myself hired Mark for our outdoor wedding ceremony in Santa Cruz at the Lighthouse / Surf Museum. He was fantastic! Mark is very easy to work with and he really made something that we were a bit nervous about (he has a HUGE selection of music!) a lot easier. In the end, we simply said "let's do Canon in D for the brides entrance, and then you can do whatever else you think is right" and he did, and it was absolutely fantastic. I would strongly recommend him to anyone who is looking for a laid back, easy going, talented person to work with!

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on October 13, 2010•From Redwood City, CA

Absolutely beautiful music. Mark played for both my wedding ceremony and our cocktail hour. Brilliant. Just brilliant. My mom is still going off about how Mark played one classical song so beautifully. He even learned our special song to be played while I walked down the aisle, with days to spare! Thank you so much, Mark!!!

Wedding Reception•Reviewed on October 12, 2010•From Vacaville, CA

Mark is a very talented musician and made our selections very easy. We left it all up to him and he did an excellent job. He arrived early and was very easy to deal with. He was very professional in appearance and manner. Everybody enjoyed his music and had a good time. The only reason I took off the half point on professionalism was in communicating with him prior to the event.

Wedding Cocktail Hour•Reviewed on September 25, 2010•From Calistoga, CA

He is a very personable and talented musician. Even played a request from a guest at our wedding. I would definitely work with Mark again, if given the opportunity.

Mark was a wonderful entertainer for our special event at Testarossa Winery. He arrived early, set up, was very nicely dressed, and played beautifully for 3 hours, which is a very long time for any guitarist, and to be able to have that depth of songs memorized to play was amazing. He performed beautifully, everyone remarked about how nice the music was, and I would highly recommend him for any other events which require music. We would definitely hire him again for furture events. He was very amiable, polite and professional in all that he did. We were very satisfied with Mark!
