Amazing musician for our wedding.
Joel played at our wedding reception and was absolutely amazing! I would recommend him to anyone looking to create an amazing atmosphere, with a unique musician. We were so excited to have Joel at our wedding and he was definitely a highlight of the day! Thanks so much Joel for making our day special!

A Master At Work.
Words genuinely can't describe what Joel's presence does at a wedding. Every part of our day he featured in was elevated by his music.
We loved him, our guests loved him and even the registrar gave him a shout out. As the groom I'm just gutted I wasn't a guest so that I could sit there and watch his whole set. Joel played before, during and after our ceremony and even learned a request for my wife and I to walk back up the aisle to. He's also a gentleman. As he was leaving once everybody had sat down to eat, he got additional applause from the room as he passed by the windows. Hire this man, he is the ultimate wedding enhancement. Thank you, Joel.

Just wanted to say a huge thank you for making our day so magical, we had the most amazing time with you there!, there was even a point in the church where our photographer was so mesmerized by your music he forgot to capture images...everyone went on and on about how fantastic you were! You truly are so talented!

Simply the best - Joel's playing was absolutely amazing. From start to finish the bride and groom were blown away by your talent. You were the perfect start to a perfect day. I wish you the best in everything that you do.

Someone thought we were filming a movie!
Joel was incredible. I'd been listening to him on Spotify for a while before getting in contact. He was so nice from the first contact. His music was even more amazing on the wedding day. We got married in a national trust venue. There were so many people listening to Joel they didn't realise it was a real wedding. A few people asked my family after if we were filming a movie. Our guests, young and old, have not stopped talking about how magical the music was. They all got emotional. And Joel was also humble enough to share the limelight with my family who sang a few songs too. He's an incredible talent and a true professional. We can't thank him enough.

Incredible musician for our wedding.
We were very fortunate to have Joel play at our wedding a couple of weeks ago. The wedding was a big surprise as people thought that they had just come for our daughters christening. Joel played his version of Pachelbel’s Canon as my wife walked down the aisle and the whole church was in tears. Additionally, Joel played a variety of songs at the reception and had many people talking about how amazing the musician we had was. I highly recommend Joel to play at your wedding!!!

A highlight of our wedding day.
Joel played at our wedding reception. His music set the perfect atmosphere for our reception drinks and acted as a great conversation starter. He also played another short set for guests to enjoy whilst they tucked into their food outside. Throughout the day, many of our guests remarked on how talented Joel is and best of all, you could tell how much Joel enjoys what he does, which made it even more of a pleasure to watch him.

A truly exceptional talent.
We first saw Joel 7 years ago busking in Bath and we were both completely blown away. I could have stood and listened to him for hours.
Ever since that point I had always wanted him to play at our wedding. Joel is truly exceptional and everyone commented on how amazing and talented he is. If you want a violinist with a twist he’s the man and I can’t thank him enough for attending and playing at our wedding.

Excellent gifted musician..with an edge.
Every bit as good as his wonderful YouTube videos and Albums. A skilled musician who brings a contemporary edge. A privilege to have him play for us during and after the ceremony…our only regret was that we couldn’t sit and listen more! Thank you.

Beautiful music by a talented musician.
Joel recently performed at our wedding and he was absolutely seemless. He was able to adapt the songs we'd heard online to make the day as perfect as possible for us.
We had multiple guests request his information throughout the day and complimented the brilliant performance he was able to provide throughout the ceremony and drinks reception. I could not have pictured it any better.
