Celebration•Reviewed on July 26, 2025•From Rancho Santa Fe, CA

We hired Alex for a birthday party last night, and he was incredible. The acoustic set was a highlight of the evening. His talent and song choices were fantastic, and he created a very special and relaxed vibe for the celebration. Alex was professional and a pleasure to work with from start to finish. Highly recommend!

Corporate Function•Reviewed on May 21, 2025•From La Jolla, CA

I booked Alex for a corporate welcome reception for a group of top tech company customers. He was the perfect addition to this low-key event. He listened to my requests to a T and enhanced the atmosphere and overall vibe of the event. He's incredibly talented and so kind. I would absolutely book Alex again for future events!

Corporate Function•Reviewed on May 19, 2025•From San Diego, CA

We hired Alex for our recent corporate event, and he was absolutely fantastic! From start to finish, his communication was clear and professional, making the entire process smooth and stress free. Not only is he an incredibly talented guitar player, but he was also friendly, engaging, and brought great energy to the event. Our guests loved the music, and he helped create a fun and welcoming atmosphere. We were beyond impressed and will definitely be hiring him again for our next company event. Highly recommend!

Alex was not only a great guitar player, but also a very nice man. His Flamenco music was perfect background music for our party.

Anniversary Party•Reviewed on July 22, 2018•From El Cajon, CA

Alex was amazingly professional and was the perfect music for my parents' 50th wedding anniversary dinner. He arrived on time, set up his area with out difficulty, and handled the toast giving portion of the dinner seamlessly. He played Italian music for our italian dinner, but also a range of other music including the La La Land music which my husband especially enjoyed! Thank you Alex for making it so special for everyone!

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on April 5, 2018•From San Diego, CA

My husband and I hired Alex to play his beautiful Spanish guitar at our small, intimate wedding ceremony. Alex went above and beyond for us and we are so fortunate to have hired him. We asked Alex to play two special songs for us. He learned the songs for the ceremony and created a wonderful rendition of his own that we truly enjoyed and will remember forever! Alex is so very talented, a kind person, and will exceed your expectations if you hire him for your event. Thank you Alex!

If you're on the fence about hiring Alex - do it. You won't be disappointed, he is a wonderfully talented guitarist and a total professional. My guests are texting me raving about him after an afternoon Easter party he played at our house.

Wedding•Reviewed on July 28, 2017•From San Diego, CA

Alex was prompt and discreet, and except for his music you'd hardly even know he was there. He was able to accommodate our last minute requests with no trouble at all and did a fantastic job with almost no direction. Add to that his ability to easily accommodate and integrate with our separate wireless system made him the perfect choice for live guitar music. Also a big shoutout to the fact that he was able to handle two totally different locations smoothly and no complaints. Would (and will) highly recommend to anyone who wants live wedding and/or dinner party guitar music. Thanks again, Alex!!

Baby Shower•Reviewed on August 5, 2018•From Vista, CA

I hired Alex Guillen for my daughter’s baby shower (first child and my first grandchild) and he was awesome. He is very talented and provided a welcoming feel to my guests and the overall environment. He is an excellent guitar player and I received many compliments from those who attended the event. He has a diverse selection of music and I definitely recommend his services!

Cocktail Party•Reviewed on November 17, 2011•From Palm Springs, CA

Self admittedly I was nervous finding a musician for a business/cocktail party but after communicating with Alex and his quick response to my questions and accommodating small details I was soon put at ease. Not to mention he is a very talented performer! Thanks Again for the great experience!

Celebration•Reviewed on May 13, 2018•From Laguna Beach, CA

My sisters and I hired Alex to perform at our mother’s Celebration of Life. He is an amazing musician and the sounds of his beautiful guitar music made it a memorable event. Alex also thoughtfully provided a microphone for family speeches during the party. Several guests made favorable comments about him and requested his contact info. I have only positive comments to make about Alex and would eagerly book him again in the future. Thank you, Alex, for making our celebration so special.

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on April 17, 2012•From San Diego, CA

Alex was absolutely fantastic!! We just got married a week ago, and so glad we found him to play for our ceremony and cocktail hour. We were looking for someone that could play some classical/spanish guitar, some traditional wedding songs (including special requests), and then kick it up a notch with some lively jazz and flamenco for the cocktail hour. Alex nailed it every time. He really set the mood for the wedding and got everyone ready for a fun reception. His girlfriend even helped us cue the bridal party so the timing was perfect! Not only would we recommend Alex to anyone, we would hire him again in a heartbeat. Well done and thanks again!!

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on November 6, 2011•From San Diego, CA

We were delighted to have Alex as part of our wedding festivities. He is top notch in all categories. Alex checked in with us during the pre-wedding planning, accomodated all song requests, played wonderfully and expertly as only he can. We highly recommend Alex to anyone needing a fabulously talented and professional musician. Both thumbs up! Thank you, Alex!

Corporate Function•Reviewed on June 21, 2017•From San Diego, CA

I’m so glad I found Alex Guillen on GigMasters for a corporate reception. His music added just the touch we needed to pull the event together. Alex made the music one less thing to worry about and played a big part in making it a very memorable evening. Alex is very talented musician, he professional and brought his own equipment. I would highly recommend Alex to bring his talents to your next event! As a matter of fact, we are hosting another corporate event in the CA area and have already booked Alex to play!

Wedding Cocktail Hour•Reviewed on August 23, 2012•From San Diego, CA

Alex played during our wedding cocktail at Balboa Park on Aug 4th. We enjoyed his music and in addition Alex has been great to work with during the preparation and the event itself. He was literally one of the few vendors that we didn't have to worry about!! We definitely recommend him – and thank you again Alex!
