Review by Malti S.

WeddingReviewed on September 11, 2009From Bolton, MA

Tom was an incredible addition to our wedding on 9/4/09. He is very talented and plays beautifully. He was very professional and I was immediately impressed with his organized approach to helping us work through the ceremony and cocktail hour logistics. He sent us a list of questions requesting ceremony details which helped us to think through things. We felt so confident with his approach and professionalism that we didn't feel the need for a rehearsal. When we met in person that day, it was comfortable like meeting an old friend. He has a wonderful gift and presence. I highly recommend him to anyone – you can trust you will be in good hands.

Wedding Cocktail HourReviewed on January 7, 2011From Sharon, MA

We hired Thomas to play flamenco guitar for our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour. He did a phenomenal job! Thomas worked with me beforehand to select the perfect songs, took special requests, and was always prompt and professional in his emails and over the phone. The day of the wedding he arrived early to set up and made a special point to thank us for hiring him to be a part of our special day. He played beautifully and we received many compliments from our guests. Thank you for a unique and beautiful experience, we loved having you!

Tom's music a wonderful part of our wedding day. In addition to his outstanding repertoire of Latin and classical guitar music, Tom learned several of our favorite pieces including some Russian music where no notes were available...he learned these by listening to recordings of the music! We highly recommend Tom.

Tom was AMAZING! All of my guests commented on how much they enjoyed his playing & how good he was. He learned two Nick Drake songs for our processional & recessional and when I heard him start to play them, I got chills because they sounded soo perfect (they are special songs for my husband & i). Tom came early to set up/tune, & communicated/coordinated with me prior to the event to ensure he had all the contacts & info he needed so i did not have to worry on my wedding day. If you don't hire Tom for your event, you're crazy!! He is a true talent, nice guy, and professional. I would give him an 11 if possible! Thank You Thank You Tom~you did such a great job! :)

Thomas was wonderful. Every single guest commented on the high quality of the music and enjoyed his selections. He worked with us prior to our wedding to select the best songs for each part of the ceremony. He also downloaded the music and learned to play the song we requested for our first dance! (You are the Sunshine of my Life.) He's very professional as well. Can't say enough good things!

We had a wonderful experience with Thomas. He always responded quickly to any communication and had great recommendations for our event. We even asked him to do a random vocal accompaniment and he made it work seamlessly. I would highly recommend him for his professionalism and talent!

Tom is absolutely amazing. He is professional, kind and so very talented. He plays with ease and grace. Everyone at our wedding commented on how wonderful he was. He was very helpful in choosing just the right musical pieces for the ceremony and cocktail hour. For our wedding, Tom played Spanish and Latin pieces to complement the Spanish theme. Incredible job. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a classical guitarist. When I have another event that warrants live music, I will definitely be giving Tom a call back. A+! Thanks, Tom! You made our wedding day that much more memorable.

Thomas was the best addition to our Spanish-themed party. In the words of our guests, he made the event "magical." Very professional, accommodating, and wonderfully talented.

Mr. Rohde is a virtuous guitarist and a scholar in Brazilian music. He performed and lectured at very high level.

Tom was very professional with likeable demeanor. during the performance he gave a little factoids about the pieces being played that delighted everyone. His performace helped to create a magical atmosphere of the golden Age of Spain. Would love to have him again.

Wedding CeremonyReviewed on August 19, 2010From Mystic, CT

We hired Tom for our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour, and we couldn't be more pleased! We were in touch 2-3 times prior to the wedding to confirm all details and music selections, and we heard so many positive comments from our guests on the day of the wedding. Thanks Tom!

Wedding CeremonyReviewed on August 17, 2010From Eastford, CT

We would highly recommend Tom for anyone looking for a talented guitarist! Tom played at our wedding this past weekend and it was beautiful! The melodies he played during our ceremony and cocktail hour were wonderful. Everyone was asking us about his information. Besides the excellent performance he gave, he also set time to meet with us prior to the wedding. He was very engaged and played samples of several melodies so that we could pick our favorites. It was a pleasure having him at our wedding and we couldn't have asked for a better performer. karina and charlie

Wedding Cocktail HourReviewed on August 11, 2010From Hanson, MA

Tom Rohde played during the ceremony and cocktail hour of my wedding. His playing was beautiful and added just the right ambiance that we were looking for. I only wish that I could have listened to more of his music, since we were taking pictures during most of the cocktail hour. He was very professional, arriving early to set up and go over his cues. Before the wedding, he sent us a list of suggested pieces to choose from, which made it very easy since we didn't have anything particular picked out already. I'm sure he would have been accommodating if we did. I would highly recommend him.

Wedding CeremonyReviewed on August 11, 2010From Boston, MA

One of our best decisions was hiring Tom to play at our wedding. He was extremely professional and organized leading up to the wedding. On the day of the wedding, he arrived and set-up on time and played beautifully. Many of our guests specifically commented on how much they enjoyed the music Tom played. We would highly recommend Tom for all future events.

Wedding CeremonyReviewed on October 30, 2011From Portsmouth, NH

Quite simply, Tom was amazing! His music was perfectly chosen (by him) to fit each circumstance during the ceremony and reception. Everyone at our wedding was enthralled ("how did you find this guy, etc, etc"). If you have the opportunity to hire him, don't wait for a second! We are grateful he was there for us.
