Guitarist Christiaan provided an unforgettable performance at our wedding. His music touched the hearts of the attendees, with some even moved to tears. His passionate guitar playing immediately resonated with us. The songs he chose created an intimate atmosphere full of love and emotion.

His performance left a lasting impression and will always be a warm memory. Thanks Christiaan!

It was super easy to communicate with Christiaan before the wedding and for the song preparation. He did exactly what we expected from the wedding, and he really brought a nice atmosphere to us. Thanks very much Christiaan.

The performance exceeded my expectations. After some extra google in which I could hear a lot of work and was impressed by the high quality, this was fully realized on the spot. Also in the contact beforehand and on the spot great professionalism. It was a wedding with 65 people, christian played for 3 hours with only a short break during dinner and welcomed evening guests in a garden with a subtle amplifier perfectly tuned in terms of sound level. Very laudatory feedback from all wedding guests. In short: certain quality and professionalism, a strong asset for every occasion!
