    David Ross was the absolute best!

    We can’t say enough about David! Incredibly professional and responsive during the planning process and prompt and ready to go day of! He made the ceremony and cocktail hour so special for us with the addition of live music. His repertoire of songs is extensive, and was willing to learn anything we wanted. I would highly recommend him for anyone looking to add a special element to you wedding day!

    David William Ross's reply:

    Thanks so much Michelle! I really appreciate these words. You guys were the best and really great to work with and I'm happy I got to meet you, however briefly. Congratulations!

    Incredible & Professional

    We booked David after finding him on Wedding Wire and could not be happier with his work! He was extremely communicative and professional and helped us to make our vision come to life. We got married on a hilltop and David arrived early to set up his equipment to play for our ceremony and got our officiant mic’d up so that our guests could hear her clearly. Then, after playing some wonderful cocktail hour music, David set up my guitar and a mic so that I could dedicate a song to my partner. He stayed and provided speakers to play a dinner and then dancing playlist from my iPad (which he also had backups of) and provided microphones for announcements and toasts. If you book David, I am sure that you will be just as floored by his kindness, talent, and professionalism. He was the perfect pick for our special day!

    Perfection

    David played both the wedding ceremony and cocktail hour at our outdoor wedding last weekend. He was so helpful in deciding which types of music to play and his catalogue is so extensive! He was happy to learn a special piece for when the bride walked down the aisle, which was really meaningful and was played beautifully. He is professional and very responsive and we couldn’t have asked for more! Thank you David!

    An Incredible Talent

    David is an exceptional musician. My daughter asked him to learn a song for her bridal walk, and not only did he learn it, but his interpretation was so thoughtful and mirrored her vision for the day. David played for the ceremony and the cocktail hour. He provided his own sound system, which was perfect for the outdoor occasion. David is a total professional, and will add sophistication and beautiful music to any event.

    David Ross - Vendor Review

    David is extremely talented. David played our requested songs for our wedding ceremony which also included our first dance and dances with our parents.. David was extremely helpful throughout the planning process and very flexible to any changes we made. He was very responsive and very professional. David’s guitar skills are off the charts. I couldn’t be more happy and impressed with David. David truly made my wedding day feel magical and special. Thank you so much!!

    David William Ross's reply:

    Thanks Aileen! I had a great time working with you and playing on the big day. I'm so glad to hear that the music was just right - congratulations and wishing you the best!

    Perfect music, perfect day!

    David was so amazing to work with and made our wedding day feel so incredibly special. The music he and his violinist Tara played for our ceremony, cocktail hour, and dinner was absolutely beautiful — their performance was the thing our guests complimented the most at the wedding! They set such a beautiful mood, and I will remember the songs they played at different moments of the day for the rest of my life. They even learned requested songs for both our procession and first dance! David was such a calming and accommodating presence during the planning process and took into account our preferences along the way. He even went above and beyond, providing mics for our ceremony. Music is so important to me, and to have people as talented as David and Tara setting the tone for the day was such a privilege!

    David William Ross's reply:

    Thank you so much for these nice words! It was great playing for you all too! It was such a beautiful day as well, you guys were the best to work with. Thanks so much!

    A Pleasure to Work With

    David Ross was a pleasure to work with and helped bring the musical vision of our wedding to fruition. He has an extensive song list and worked with us to create new arrangements to make our wedding ceremony incredible. He also set the perfect vibe for our cocktail party and our guests enjoyed the acoustic versions of modern pop songs. David was very communicative in the months leading up to our wedding and helped us time out a perfect rendition of Don't Want to Miss a Thing for our First Dance. He was a pleasure to work with and I would definitely recommend to anyone looking for an acoustic guitarist.

    David William Ross's reply:

    Thanks so much for these kind words Dan! It was wonderful working with both of you and playing for you for both the ceremony and cocktail hour as well as the first dance, that was a great touch! I hope you both are well and enjoying some time newly married, congratulations!

    The BEST musician in NH!!!!!

    David is an absolute joy to work with, other than being one of the best musicians I have worked with in my career. As a wedding planner who was getting married this past summer in Alstead, NH, we were on the hunt for the perfect person to create the specific, yet effortless vibe we were going for. David exceeded ALL expectations and didn't even bat an eye when we had a couple of song requests for the ceremony. The music was absolute perfection!!! We worked with David and his buddies to create a trio for our brunch the day after the wedding and everyone was so impressed by them. I wish I had weddings in the New England area so I could work with David again!!!! Thank you for everything :) Emma & Nate

    Exceptional Ceremony Music

    We are so grateful we found David to play at our wedding ceremony!

    David was very easy to communicate with; his responses were always prompt and professional, and he was accommodating when we inquired about adding a cellist and violinist at numerous points throughout the process. David referred us to well-qualified, fantastic musicians (Rafael Popper-Keizer, cellist and Tara Novak, violinist) and facilitated the entire process himself. He was flexible about learning songs outside of his repertoire list and altering the arrangements as our date approached.

    On our big day, David, Rafael, and Tara’s music was simply exceptional, adding a layer of elegance and magic to our ceremony that otherwise would not have been possible. It was absolutely beautiful, and he brought our vision to life. David also sent along drone footage that we are so excited about.

    If I could give David 10 stars, I would. We highly recommend his services to any couple seeking ceremony music!

    David William Ross's reply:

    Thanks so much Bianca! It was a real pleasure to play for you and I love putting together string trios, it was perfect and I'm so glad that the music was right from your perspective too! Congratulations!

    David played at our wedding during the ceremony and cocktail hour. He was a WONDERFUL addition to our wedding and made our dreams come true!

    the most perfect ceremony music

    We hired David for our ceremony & cocktail hour music & I’m so glad we did! It was the perfect ambiance, made our ceremony feel so special. I cried immediately upon hearing our processional music. He had an amazing repertoire & offered to do an arrangement of something for us if it wasn’t on his list but it wasn’t necessary because there were so many good ones. We got a lot of compliments on the music & just how skilled he was at the guitar. He was very helpful & responsive answering all of our questions before the event & was able to work with our partially indoor/outdoor cocktail hour. I can’t say enough good things. One of my favorite vendors we hired.

    David William Ross's reply:

    Thanks Alice! I'm so appreciative of these words. It is good to hear the music was moving for both you and all of your guests. I had a great time and it was a pleasure working with you. Congratulations to you both, wishing only the very best!

    David made our day truly amazing. From the lapel microphone for the officiant to his arrangements of songs at our request. He was so perfect. The ambience he created truly helped to set the tone for our beautiful day. He was so easy to work with. I would hire him again and again.

    Excellent Ceremony and Cocktail Music!

    David Ross was very professional and worked with us to customize our ceremony and cocktail hour music for our Stratton Mountain wedding. We wanted a violin and guitar duo for our wedding and David found the perfect match with a talented violinist and vocalist, Tara Novak. They even learned our first dance song and performed it beautifully. Highly recommend!

    Thanks so much Carlin! I really appreciate your words and your time in leaving them for me. It was a beautiful (even if chilly!) day up on Stratton, was happy to be there with Tara to play for you.

    Perfect choice for ceremony & cocktail hour

    David Ross is an extremely talented musician and thoughtful vendor who made our wedding very special. He quickly absorbed our song ideas for both a ceremony and cocktail hour and created a helpful set list to show us how he was thinking about the event. We absolutely loved working with him and appreciated his responsiveness and professionalism at every level. Our guests raved about his performance and would highly recommend for anyone else!

    David William Ross's reply:

    Thanks Claire! It was a pleasure to play for both of you and I appreciate these words. I always love the opportunity to play in duo and even better at a beautiful and personal venue. Congratulations!
