Review by Maria P.

Wedding•Reviewed on July 29, 2017•From Miami Beach, FL

James was great at fulfilling my last minute request for new songs. He performed them great and was patient and understanding. I love my songs "True" and "All of Me". The wedding came out just as I wanted. I am sorry I didn't get to speak to you much because I was trying to put all the final pieces together but we are very thankful and happy with your work! Thank you!

James Woolwine:

Thanks for your kind words Maria. It was my pleasure to be a part of your wedding. Thanks for hiring me.
