Matt's playing literally had a lot of us in tears, it was SO good! I highly recommend having him play his arrangement of "Wonderful Tonight" at your wedding. He plays a perfect mix of popular contemporary songs as well as some traditional classical guitar music. He's super easy to work with too - very laid back, yet very clear with his communication. He's not a pushy salesman either, which we rant into with a few other vendors.

My wife and I hired Matt to play at our daughter's wedding this year. Matt can truly play anything! I was so surprised that he was able to accommodate all of our bizarre musical requests. He couldn't be easier to work with to boot!

I took guitar lessons from Matt, so it was an easy to decision to hire him to play at my wedding. He sounded amazing and couldn't have been easier to work with, like always!
