Private Party•Reviewed on September 10, 2022•From Anaheim, CA

Donovan was professional and easy to work with. He was on time, communication was always easy, and he added a special touch to my party. He's really talented. My guests liked his music. I would recommend him and hire him again in a heartbeat.

Event•Reviewed on April 19, 2013•From Santa Ana, CA

Donovan was a tremendous asset to our wine tasting and added that essetial layer of atomosphere to the event. He came early to set up, brought a great sound system that provided great reach throughout our showroom and was a great to work with. He came well dressed and was very personable. I wish we would have had him at our previous events and would not hesitate to use him for our future endeavors. This is on top of his excellent guitar skills. He provided a broad, varied and appropriate catalog of music well suited to the occasion.

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on October 21, 2012•From Fullerton, CA

It was such an honor to have Donovan perform at our wedding! Our guests were in awe of his talent, and his Spanish guitar really set the mood for our wedding. Not only is he amazingly talented, but he's such a sweet guy and worked so well with our DJ! Talented, professional, really nice - what more could you want in a live guitarist? I can't wait to hire him again in the future!

Donovan was very professional. He was on-time, dressed very well, and his repertoire was what we had requested. We would highly recommend Donovan to other friends and utilize his talents in future events. Thank you Donovan!

Wedding•Reviewed on September 21, 2009•From Laguna Niguel, CA

Donovan gave our wedding a very magical ambiance - my husband and I were so happy to have had him there, and many of our guests later complimented me on how much they loved the music as well. I would hire him again and refer him to friends/family in a heartbeat.

Thanks for everything Donovan...you were very professional and accommodating. I think I would turn up the volume next time! But that was our call, not yours! Enjoy the holidays and hope to work with you again, Charlotte Embassy Suites-Santa Ana

Wedding•Reviewed on October 5, 2008•From Dana Point, CA

Having Donovan play for my daughter's wedding was the easiest part of the whole planning process. He made the processs effortless! He was incredibly kind and accomodating. The best part was his skill with the guitar! He is amazing. I would recommend Donovan for any type of event. Lynell Sanford

His performance was excellent.

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on January 26, 2008•From Dana Point, CA

Donovan had to perform on a whale watching catamaran adventure for my mother's very special 80th birthday party. He was expected to share his performance time with the Naturalist on board. Whenever wild life was spotted, she would talk over the loud speaker & Donovan would have to pause. I never had to worry about coordinating this, as Donovan did an excellent job of managing his available time. My husband, who owns an extensive guitar collection & plays himself, spent most of his time listening to Donovan rather than watching the whales. He was very impressed with Donovan's ability & the way he makes it look so easy. (which it's not) Great job Donovan!! Thanks

Wedding•Reviewed on September 27, 2008•From Laguna Beach, CA

Donovan played the guitar during my wedding ceremony and dinner reception. The music was beautiful! Donovan is also very professional. He arrived promptly and played the exact music we had discussed beforehand. He really helped make the day go smoothly. Thanks Donovan!

Private Party•Reviewed on August 21, 2008•From Los Angeles, CA

Donovan delivered a great performance, was very appropriate in presenting himself for this event and was very easy to work with. The only small glitch we had was that we expected him to have a mike that we could use for toasts at the event per email discussion with him, but he did not have a mike with him for the evening. Despite this we thought he was great.

Celebration•Reviewed on April 20, 2010•From Newport Beach, CA

Fantastic! We really enjoyed his music, selection and style. He showed up early to set up so when guests arrived he was ready to go. I real pleasure to have hired him. T Trapp

Corporate Function•Reviewed on January 20, 2009•From Palm Springs, CA

He confused the date of the performance and did not show up until I called to remind him. He was, however, accomodating as to adjusting the price based on his being late and was very apologetic. He played some requests, but was unable to play others. He was overall pleasant to work with. Gail
