Wedding•Reviewed on June 9, 2007•From Cleveland, OH
Classical/Jazz Guitar Ensemble was outstanding in every respect.
Right from the first telephone interview I was impressed. Robert McCloy was easy to communicate with, prompt in his replies and most helpful and accomodating with regard to our requests - they even transcribed some of our own Ukraininan folk music to add to an already rich mix of classical, jass, rock, celtic, pop and toe tapping dancing music. The trio we hired brought multiple instruments so the music they produced was beautifully rich in tone and beautifully performed. The amplification was perfect - wonderfully audible but not so painfully loud as to prohibit any hope of conversation or pleasing listening and they played continuously for six hours with only minimal breaks. We enjoyed beautiful music during cocktails and dinner and then danced the night away. They achieved the almost impossible - they appealed, equally well, to both the older guests AND the younger set and their varsatility and talent in all genres of music was amazing. We are still getting compliments on our choice of music and musicians. Robert and his fellow musicians added to the perfection of my daughter's wedding day and I can honestly say that this group is very professional and talented and I recommend them very highly for any type of event.

Robert did a great job at my recent wedding. He arrived on time despite the challenge of getting to the restaurant. During the ceremony we had ring blessing that I did not tell him about, he picked up playing so everything went very smoothly. He brought a microphone and amp that was very easy to use so we could have readings by family members during the ceremony.
He was very easy to communicate with via phone and email. His quick responses put me at ease.
Thanks again Robert!

As a professional musician myself, I had high standards and expectations for music at our wedding. Mr. McCloy not only met these, he exceeded them. We had some specific requests which he swiftly met, and his overall playing was amazing. All of our guests enjoyed it, and it really gave our wedding a special atmosphere. I can't recommend him enough!

Robert McCloy added such a special touch to our outdoor wedding! His music was beautiful! Our guests loved the selections he played and commented on how easy he made it look to put on such an amazing performance. Even without a rehearsal together, Robert was playing exactly when he needed to be at every point in the ceremony. Music is so important for setting the right tone at events such as our wedding, and Robert McCloy set the perfect tone for our special day. I recommend him to anyone who wants that extra something special at their wedding ceremony.

Robert was great! He arrived on time (even early, I think) and was very polite and professional. The music he played was perfect and exactly what we wanted for our ceremony. He even learned several new songs that we requested! I would definitely recommend him to any couple that is looking for an experienced and thoughtful classical guitarist. Thanks again Robert!

Mr. McCloy is very easy to work with. He made the music portion of my daughter's wedding so stress free. The guitar music was so relaxing and set a lovely tone for the entire ceremony.
In addition, the GigMasters service included the most helpful reminder checklist one week before the wedding. That was such a professional touch that helped me to avoid any last minute problems. Thank You!!!

Robert was awesome. He was more prepared than we were! Everybody talked about how they enjoyed his music. Some people sang along while he played before the ceremony. Robert was a very nice guy and we were only sorry that we did not get to hear as much of him as our guests, because he played during our cocktail our and during the seating of our guests.
Hire Robert if you want a real professional at your wedding.
