Read on. I used Natalie on June 22nd 2013 for my wedding. Natalie met with my (to-be) wife and I and she had helpful checklists that rapidly took us through every aspect of the day. She was very interested in our suggestions and asked a lot of questions to hone in on exactly what mood, tone and atmosphere we wanted created at every point. She was able to come up with music for the entire day and evening that can only be described as "the perfect everything for Mike and Holly's wedding". Natalie never said "no" or "we can't really do that" or "I don't have that music". That was reassuring to us! When you are trying to put together a wedding on a tight budget and tight time line, having someone like Natalie on our team really made what could have been a fricking nightmare a lot calmer. She used the phrase "no worries" a lot, meant it, and ultimately she backed that shit up. She also played a live song with me (at my request) and this was very moving to everyone there, to say the least. She sounds like a cross between Cher, Janice Joplin, Linda Perry, Robert Plant and Annie Lennox. She fricking rocks! Part of the whole thing, I wanted a violinist to play for guests arriving and to play with me during the live song. Natalie found a violinist who was not only amazing (someone who played violin live with the biggest names in music), but at a very reasonable price. She even dressed like a pirate, as it was a pirate themed wedding. Playing live with her was a real treat. The last thing I remember that night was my wife and I dancing the night away to block rockin' beats and every corny disco and funk song we ever loved growing up, and lots of other music picked to entertain our extremely diverse party of guests. "A good time was had by all" and this pirate themed wedding literally went down in history and became the discussion de rigueur on Facebook for the next fricking month lol.

Best instructor ever!…read more Larry is a gifted teacher and coach, my all-time favorite drum instructor, and I've had several going back to my professional career in the 70's. I've been working with Larry since April 2015 and am now without question playing better than ever in my life. Of course it takes practice, but Larry's direction and constructive criticism make all the difference. A natural teacher, his enthusiasm, professional experience and technical knowledge allow him to get the best from his students. I've watched him motivate and instill confidence in elementary school students, showing the same commitment and passion that I've experienced. Larry plays professionally in all genres, is respected and recommended by the top professionals in Southern California, who also happen to be the top drummers on the planet. It is rare to find a great professional player who is also a great teacher. Larry is both, an accomplished player and teacher in multiple genres, Latin, Rock, R&B, Blues, Big Band, Jazz, Jazz Fusion, Drum Corp. He's is also an expert reader and has worked wonders with my sight-reading. Larry is a blast to work with. You will want to practice and will look forward to your lessons. Thank you Larry!

We were recommended to a local studio, long story short that did not work out. They were completely incompetent. I went onto Yelp and found Sue Lopez, I instantly knew she was going to be the one. My daughter and I went to her first lesson - Ms. Sue was AMAZING!!! Not only does she have a talent to teach piano, but her teaching style, philosophy and demeanor completely hooked my daughter. Within the first 2 months my daughter was already playing Beethoven, Bach, the Blues, Ballads and more. Her effort, skill and talent has impressed us all. Ms. Sue encourages my daughter to express herself on the piano, she creates a safe learning environment where my daughter feels empowered and courageous. It has been truly amazing to witness. If one is lucky, Ms. Sue and her husband (also a gifted musician) treats us to a awesome performance. Thank you Sue Lopez!!! We highly recommend her!

It really keeps my daughter engaged and motivated because she's not stuck playing one-handed songs like "mary had a little lamb." It's been about 3 months now, and she has about a dozen songs she can play well now -- all of them have different parts for the right and left hands. She sounds great and loves impressing family and friends with her playing. My daughter even signed herself up for her school's talent show only a few weeks into lessons with Sue. That's confidence that will stay with her forever. Finally, I didn't want piano to be something I had to push and nag my daughter about-- we have enough to do each week. There are weeks my daughter practices a lot, and other weeks where it's busy and she can't practice as much, but: --My daughter always looks forward to playing and lessons --Sue is always positive about it, whether it was a good practice week or a light practice week, and gives her lots of encouragement. THANK YOU!

All the details leading up to the wedding were so easy and Jason was on top of everything. He has a large list of music to choose from but you can also pay to have them learn something specific. There's a piano at our venue so we really wanted that in combination with a guitar. I hadn't seen that combo a lot but it was such a beautiful sound. We chose In My Life by The Beatles for the bridal processional and it was perfect! They played it beautifully and we couldn't have been happier.

Initial booking and communication was quick and courteous. He was completely onboard with our odder requests, he had years of wedding DJ experience available as a resource, he completely understood the vibe we wanted for our big day and how to compliment it. After meeting Chris and learning more about him, we had complete confidence in our decision. The effort we ended up getting from Chris on our wedding day was simply phenomenal. He ended up being a DJ, lighting guru and our unofficial wedding day-of coordinator. He hustled to keep things on schedule, approaching us at appropriate moments to let us know how we were tracking against our timeline and what was coming up. Everyone had an excellent time, and Chris was the MVP that helped make everything a success. We have absolutely no regrets and would recommend DJ Chris to anyone looking for a professional with an awesome attitude. In my wife's words, "He was the glue" for our wedding and was the best vendor hire we made. His pricing was super reasonable and comparable with other DJs services we had researched, but the work he put into our wedding day and the value we received was unmatchable.

He has become such a wonderful player, and he has loved every minute of his lessons.
