Engagement Party•Reviewed on April 20, 2015•From Washington, DC
Tom is a gentleman and focused professional. He played at my surprise engagement party to the delight of the entire crowd. Also, Tom is eager to learn new music in his style. I asked him to learn a few songs that my fiancé would enjoy and I gave him a couple of samples. However, he went out of his way to learn 7 songs and played them masterfully. He was incredible. Thank you Tom making my engagement even more special.

Using Tom Rohde was one of the best decisions we made in the planning our wedding. He was gracious enough to bring a microphone for us to use during the wedding ceremony and hook it up to his amplifier. He also allowed us to choose our own songs for the wedding ceremony that were not in his normal repertoire and made his own great arrangements of these songs! I got numerous compliments about Tom Rohde during and after the wedding. Also, communication was great during the entire process, as we exchanged many emails. I highly recommend him!

Tom was easy to work with, punctual, proactive and played wonderfully for our hotel grand opening. He set the tone for a great event. We would definitely hire him again.

Tom was wonderful. He was extremely organized before the wedding, reaching out to us to make sure we had all of our music picked out and to accomodate any special requests. The day of, he was great as well - we didn't have to worry about anything with him. He was on time, played exactly what we wanted, and most importantly, he's just extremely talented. We received a lot of compliments on how perfect and classy the music was. Couldn't have asked for anything better. Thanks so much Tom!
Anniversary Party•Reviewed on June 9, 2013•From Dickerson, MD
Tom was extremely professional and understanding. We were supposed to have an outdoor wedding but due to some storms we had to move everything inside last minute. Tom was very flexible and moved inside, even playing a half hour longer as most guests were held up by the storm. His playing was also beautiful and really added a perfect mood and ambiance for our wedding. Highly recommended.

Absolutely amazing. Tom learned all of the songs we wanted and played them exquisitely! My husband is in the music industry as well and he was blown away.
Tom and his guitar definitely made our wedding one of a kind and so special. Everyone commented on how well he performed. He exceeded all of our expectations and his professionalism stood out above all of the vendors we hired.
Love,
Chris and Emily
Wedding•Reviewed on March 11, 2013•From Berlin, MD
Tom played at my wedding this past weekend in the Easter Shore. He was so amazing I can't even put words into how incredible he was. If he is available for your event I would book him fast. He is responsive, accomodating, professional and kind. Most of all he is an absolutely AMAZING guitarist. I asked that he play a the love song from Cinema Paradisio and he had to take the piano piece and write it for the gutair. It was perfect. He made a copy of the music he wrote and signed it for us.
He helped make my wedding special & personall with just the right tenor of music. He also played for the first part of our reception as well.
I highly recommend
Art Gallery Opening•Reviewed on October 18, 2012•From Washington, DC
I made great efforts to search for a classical guitarist for an opening reception in Touchstone Gallery, Washington, D.C. in October, 2012. Not until I heard the sample of Tom Rohde's artistry on the Gigmasters site, I stopped searching. I recommend Tom Rhode whole-heartedly for his superior musicality as well as his musicianship. His work ethic was impressive. No worries about late arrival. He is cultivated and polite with wonderful personality. In short, in addition to his excellent skills, he has uncommon qualities. Amazing! all in one!! He also has a broad repertoire, and he respects his client's wishes. He is someone the client cannot find fault with.
Wedding Cocktail Hour•Reviewed on December 1, 2012•From Cambridge, MA
Tom was simply fantastic. He was incredibly professional, very accommodating, and superbly talented. Our guests (including my Brazilian mother) raved about him and his performance during our outside cocktail hours. We hope to have the opportunity to hire him again sometime soon. Thank you for the wonderful memories Tom!!
Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on October 30, 2011•From 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.
