Ben was amazing! We received many compliments on Ben. Our event was a black tie fundraising event for over 350 people. He is a true talent and a pleasure to do business with. I highly recommend him.

Of course as the bride I was very busy getting ready to walk down the aisle so did not get to enjoy Ben's acoustic playing but others including my husband said he was wonderful! Thank you for adding to our perfect day! Karla Bride/Wife

Wedding•Reviewed on November 5, 2015•From Marco Island, FL

We hired Ben to play at our intimate beach ceremony and wedding in Marco Island. Ben was an absolute pleasure to work with and plan ahead of time. He really guided us with music selections and went above and beyond to meet our special requests for the event. He even learned a Serbian song for our first dance. He was professional, responsive and friendly. Above all, he is incredibly talented and skilled. We have several music lovers that attended our wedding and we received an overflow of positive compliments of his talent! His versatility as an artist is amazing. We highly recommend him for special events!

I just wanted to say a personal thanks for Ben's performance at Safety Harbor Resort, he was the highlight of my day ( apart from getting married :-) ) and everyone was stunned by his talent. He is fantastic … he really helped to set the mood, and I received so many positive comments. His performance really made the evening a night to remember! and his magic made our day so special and perfect. THANKS BEN

Cocktail Party•Reviewed on May 7, 2015•From Orlando, FL

Ben was phenomenal last night. He played literally non-stop for two and a half hours one great song after another. Our guests were super impressed with him. I hope to definitely bring him back next year for our reception. Thank you again Ben for your time and awesome talent. I hired been for our business reception held during a major conference.

We will certainly look to bring Ben back. He created the perfect ambiance for our event. Classical music to the Beatles. Just awesome!

Corporate Function•Reviewed on February 26, 2015•From Orlando, FL

We decided at the last minute to hire a guitar player and within 30 minutes of requesting quotes, we heard back from Ben. He answered all of my questions and I was impressed with his interest in making sure I felt comfortable that he was a good match for the event and venue. He arrived in plenty of time to set up and was perfectly attired to match the event which was a patio BBQ dinner for members of our leadership team. His music was perfect - not too loud or obscure and just the right mix so people could carry on a conversation. He brought his own Amp and took about five minutes to set up. And boy, is he talented!!! I would definitely hire Ben again!

Ben was an amazing addition to our Gala event. He was prompt, professional and kind. He is extremely talented, and his price was perfect for our fundraising, charity budget. We would absolutely hire him again!

Wedding•Reviewed on November 6, 2014•From Palm Beach, FL

Ben Pila is a masterful guitarist! He possesses an amazing ability to recognize the vibe of the guests in the room & to match the selections played with the emotion of the occasion. His ability to flawlessly play virtually every genre of music with seamless flow is remarkable and it is evident that he truly enjoys his craft. Every guest and vendor at our wedding left speaking of hiring Ben for future parties of their own. His calm & pleasant demeanor instills confidence and makes him a pleasure to work with. We will hire him again and look forward to hearing him perform. The "1-5" scale doesn't begin to quantify the depth and quality of the service Ben Pila provides.

Wedding•Reviewed on September 16, 2014•From Anna Maria, FL

Ben is a consumate musician, and has a gentle and friendly presence. He set the tone of the wedding and reception with classic elegance and made our entire affair richer. Our guests, many on them musicians themselves and one a classical guitarist, are still commenting at his talent. We were very fortunate to have found him.

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on August 11, 2014•From Palm City, FL

THANK YOU!!! THANK YOU!!! THANK YOU BEN!!!! Dr. Ben Pila was absolutely perfect as a professional and as a performer at our wedding. His amazing talent on the guitar is only surpassed by his level of professionalism and dedication to his career. He was more than will to accommodate on short notice and provided wonderful suggestions to us based from his vast experience and repertoire. My wife and I could not be happier with having had Ben contribute in such a wonderful way to our special day. I look forward to working with him on other events and would recommend him to anyone without hesitation.
