Review by Chris R.

Corporate Function•Reviewed on August 20, 2013•From San Diego, CA

Alex was great! In addition to showing up prior to our event he came prepared with a microphone we had not asked for to make a few announcements. I will use him again when in the San Diego area and recommend others. We were hosting a client reception for 300 aboard the U.S.S. Midway.

Anniversary Party•Reviewed on May 19, 2017•From Irvine, CA

Alex was fantastic! I only booked him for a couple hours, but he was accommodating enough to drive up from San Diego to Orange County, and stayed an hour-and-a-half past the time he had committed for. He's a truly excellent classical guitarist.

Holiday Party•Reviewed on March 9, 2017•From San Diego, CA

I'm a little late leaving this review... Alex performed during a corporate holiday party and was a pleasure to work with. He was prompt, professional and truly talented. I couldn't have asked for a better experience.

Alex was super easy to work with. I had some specific songs I wanted played at my wedding and he did not hesitate to learn the ones he was less familiar with. His demeanor is easy-going and he definitely was one of the best vendors I worked with. I would absolutely recommend him!

If I could have given Alex 6 stars, I would have! I'm in the entertainment industry, and subsequently, am insanely particular with how I think things should be done. Alex exceeded my expectations on every level! I gave him a song that I wanted him to learn, with only 2 days until the event, and he absolutely nailed it. He is talented, professional, accommodating, and I would strongly recommend Alex to anyone who is considering his services.

Alex is a great performer! He played at our Summer Picnic and received raving review by our guests related to his outstanding performance. I would recommend him for any corporate event or other opportunity!

Wedding•Reviewed on October 4, 2017•From San Diego, CA

Alex was terrific. He arrived promptly and rolled with the punches, as our wedding venue had an unusual set up and was on a very hot day. The music and professionalism were of the highest caliber. Strongly recommend!

Meeting Alex for the first time was what set my vision for my wedding. Not only did he exceed my expectations, he learned at least 15-20 new songs that he played for my wedding if not more. If I could give him more than 5 stars I would. Anyone who is lucky enough to have him play at your event will be amazed at his talent and professionalism. Thank you Alex for making my dream wedding come true

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on May 22, 2012•From San Diego, CA

Alex played the ceremony music for our wedding and he was fantastic! He demonstrated the utmost professionalism during the negotiation and music selection process. He offered us incredible variety in music he could play. He also gratiously provided us use of his microphone and amp for the outdoor ceremony. The music he played was excellent and we truly appreciated his service. We highly recommend him for future events!

Alex did the music for my wedding ceremony and it was great! He is very kind and makes you feel like you're dealing with a friend from start to finish. I would recommend Alex to anyone. The only complaint I have is that Alex isn't here in Phoenix, AZ with all of us! :) Thank you again Alex, for making my big day just a little more special :)

Private Party•Reviewed on June 29, 2014•From San Diego, CA

Alex was great! took on the gig at short notice and was very accommodating on the terms and we put it together quickly. He was her on time and stayed late. Music talent was super and the guests made requests and he filled them all. Very happy experience Would definitely have him back again and recommend him as a guitar talent.

Private Party•Reviewed on February 18, 2013•From San Diego, CA

Had a wine tasting/ valentine's celebration in my home on Sat. Feb. 9 for 22 friends. I wanted it to be special and memorable. Alex helped make that happen. He was very professional an excellent guitarist and quick to get back to me with my many questions. Alex kept the volume and style of music in keeping with my gathering and all loved having him share the evening with us. I can highly recommend Alex if you need a solo guitarist.

Anniversary Party•Reviewed on March 12, 2014•From San Diego, CA

Alex arrived on time, was professional, yet very pleasant, warm and accommodating. His musicianship and talent was commented upon by several of our guests, who asked for his card. I would hire him again, and would recommend him to anyone without reservation. This was a 70th wedding anniversary celebration for my parents, and Alex was gracious enough to accompany my father when he sang a love song to my mother as an anniversary surprise. It brought down the house.

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on July 30, 2012•From Laguna Beach, CA

Alex played at our wedding, which was located on the beach and also at our reception located at a restaurant nearby. He consistently replied back to all of my emails and phone calls on the same day (which gave me peace of mind) and was very professional during all correspondence. On the day of our wedding, Alex showed up early to set up (again giving me peace of mind) and did an outstanding job performing all of the songs we went over. He even came to our table during the reception and played my bride's favorite song, and many of our guests commented how great it was. Without hesitation, I highly recommend Alex to play at your event. Very professional and talented.

Alex was great to work with and did a fantastic job playing our ceremony, cocktail hour and dinner. He helped me in picking out ceremony songs and was always available to answer questions or give advice. We let him be creative with the cocktail hour and dinner music and it fit into the theme of our day perfectly.

Private Party•Reviewed on March 9, 2013•From San Diego, CA

This was a charity event with a variety of ages in attendance. The music was a compliment to the evening thanks to Alex. He supported the mood and ambience perfectly and played to the crowd. The 550 person fundraiser was able to function perfectly with the seemless musical accompaniament of Alex and his beautiful guitar. He was professional, prompt, and understood our needs for our event. We would highly recommend him for your fuction. The music was stunning beautiful! and enjoyed by all. Flamenco flavor and the perfect amount of spice!

Alex was great to work with! He was very professional, punctual, easy going, and an excellent musician. He even learned to play our favorite song. We would defintely recommend Alex to our family and friends. We already booked him for our Anniversary. Our guests raved about how great he was. We are spanish guitar fans, and love all his original songs as well. Two big thumbs up for Alex!! Thank you so much Alex, for making our wedding so wonderful. Matt and Kathleen

Alex arrived early, was dressed in appropriate attire, and played wonderful music. His selections, style, and volume level suited our corporate event perfectly. I would definitely hire him again for another corporate or private party.

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on June 8, 2013•From San Diego, CA

Alex played wonderfully and even learned a couple songs for our wedding processional and recessional. He was on time and flexible with his schedule, playing an additional two hours over our contracted time. He barely took a break until we encouraged him to have a meal at the reception. I would use him again if the occassion merited the expense. The restruant where we had the reception encouraged him to play there as well if in the neighborhood for pay... so hopefully, Alex can get more work from this as well. Alex, if you are reading this, Thank you so much for making our wedding day so special with your music. You are very talented.
