quotation marks

“Derek is one of the best wedding professionals I have come across. He is so courteous and kind, it makes working with him all the better. He did an INCREDIBLE job at our wedding this past Saturday. His classical guitar during our ceremony was perfect. He was very responsive during the planning process and understanding through out the pandemic. He worked with our musicians at the church without issue. I recommend him wherever I can. Derek, thank you for all your work. We are so happy you were a part of our special day!”
