Review by Scott R.
Private Party•Reviewed on January 25, 2023•From Las Vegas, NV
Judy was great and had an amazing playlist that she shared throughout the evening.
Judy Bowen:
Scott, Thank you so much for the wonderful review! I really appreciate it. Thanks for having me play for your after-party. It was a fabulous party and beautiful venue. I had so much fun playing! JudyReview by Henry L.
Wedding•Reviewed on September 7, 2018•From Las Vegas, NV
Judy Bowen has been a pleasure to work with in preparation for my wedding ceremony. She provided great recommendations on music arrangements for marching in and the marching out of the venue. All of our guests enjoyed the ambiance and the classical tunes she played during the cocktail hour. Judy really dressed for the occasion and was very accommodating to our guests. I most definitely would recommend her for the talented skills on the piano on any venue where entertaining is a must. She is a class act!
Review by Gabriel L.
Wedding Reception•Reviewed on November 13, 2017•From Atlanta, GA
Choosing Judy for our wedding reception pianist was the best decision ever. She was very professional, wore an elegant evening gown, and her piano performance was very delightful. Her vast and exquisite song list made our wedding reception a dream.
Thank you, Judy!
