We had the opportunity to hear Jake play at Samantha’s wedding (our youngest daughter) last June, 2014. I could hear him playing as we arrived home from the hair dressing appointment and it was heavenly music–so much so that our pet Border Collie Abigail was sitting beside him so calm and at peace.

He played the set of music that was requested by Samantha and her husband Gregory, and I recall the song by the band Journey “Don’t Stop Believing.” It was so wonderful. He played it exquisitely. We loved every moment of it.

When our oldest daughter Rina got engaged in the spring of 2014, she had asked for Jake to play at her wedding this August, 2015. As Rina and Adam’s taste in music was slightly different from Samantha and Gregory, we knew that there would be no issue as Jake is a master at playing whatever is asked of him and he does it so well.

Again, it was a joy to have Jake be a part of Rina’s special day. He is like family to us. We could not have asked for anyone kinder, respectful of others and very professional. His talent for playing the acoustic guitar is profound. I myself could sit and listen to him play for hours if given the opportunity. I would not hesitate to recommend Jake for any event as his ability to play is amazing.

Thank you Jake for being such a special part of our girls’ weddings. We are blessed to have met you.

Adam and I had the pleasure of having Jake play at our wedding this summer and we could not be happier with the results. Jake is such a wonderful and talented person and he was amazing to work with from start to finish. Jake met with us prior to our wedding to go over our music selection and we were able to customize the style of music we wanted so it fit with our story and style of wedding. Jake learned custom songs for us and the music was so outstanding I was tearing up before I even started walking down the aisle.

Jake’s professionalism and courtesy excel beyond reason and he made the process effortless for Adam and I. Jake is more than just a musician. He is kind, thoughtful and funny and makes sure that there is nothing left for you to do but enjoy your night. We are so grateful we had Jake play for our wedding and will certainly look for opportunities in the future to work with him again.
