    Best choice ever!

    Joel was a later add to our day but WOW what a fantastic choice we made! I found Joel on Hitched and as soon as I showed my future husband his work he said we have to book him! He played my aisle walk song so perfectly and it brought everyone to tears. He couldn’t have done a better job and I wish we could get married again just to have him play for us!

    Thank you from the bottom of our hearts!!

    Absolutely brilliant!

    Joel was incredible from start to finish, so talented, responsive and accommodating. Our ceremony was in Wiltshire so it was a very long drive from York for Joel, but he had no issue with it. He also learned a song for me to walk down the aisle to, that was very special for both me and my now husband, which I’m incredibly grateful for. He then also played during the reception and so many guests commented on how brilliant he was. Our day wouldn’t have been the same without Joel and we are so glad he was able to make it even more special, thank you so much! Liz & Scott

    Joel was the perfect addition to our wedding

    We are so glad we booked Joel! He provided music for the aisle, exit and drinks reception. He was perfect for our venue and is just so talented. He was super responsive during the lead up to the wedding, and even learned a specific song for us. We would recommend him to everyone.

    Cherry on top

    Joel was the cherry on top of my ceremony. The sound from his violin hugged the room and created a warm and romantic atmosphere. He travelled so far for my wedding and we are very grateful! We highly recommend him, he has such an authentic sound that is very modern yet classic. He even learnt a whole new piece for us and created his own arrangement!

    Exceptional

    Joel was absolutely incredible at our wedding. His live looping violin performance added a magical touch to both our ceremony and drinks reception. The music was beautifully crafted and perfectly set the mood for our special day. We received countless compliments from our guests on his talent and the unique atmosphere he created. Highly recommended!

    One of the best decisions for our wedding!!

    We booked Joel for our wedding at Aswarby Rectory on 3rd August and were so, so thrilled that we did!! So many of our guests have said how incredible Joel’s playing was and we have even passed his details on to friends who are planning their own weddings. Joel’s communication was always very good throughout the booking and planning process and nothing was too much trouble.

    Our only regret was not having more time to sit and watch Joel play on the day but we had a lovely little moment together watching him perform a special song he had kindly learnt for us. 1000% would book again!!

    Perfection!

    My husband is a big music fan so when we came cross Joel's violin pedal looping we knew we had to enquire as it was just so cool!

    He is absolutely sensational to watch live and all our guests loved his performance, he is so technically skilled and super professional! With emails and contact throughout Joel was wonderful to work with and gives the option of learning pieces if you have a specific song in mind, he collaborated with me picking the parts of the song I wanted and as soon as I heard him on the day I started crying. Walking down the aisle to him playing and seeing my husband for the first time that day will always be a cherished memory!

    Thanks for being so wonderful Joel and for making our day so special!!

    Unique and beautiful music for our wedding

    Joel is incredibly talented and played beautifully at our wedding. His style and the looping element is so unique and had all our guests talking. Even weeks later guests are still talking about how good he was. Joel was also very helpful and responsive in the lead up to the day. He was also able to arrange a specific song I wanted to walk down the aisle to which wasn’t on his set list. Booking Joel was one of the best decisions we made! Cannot recommend enough!

    Absolutely incredible!!

    I'd always wanted to walk down the Pachelbel's Canon D and when I found Joel, and heard his loop version of it, I cried and knew it was perfect! He made the day extra special and took the whole ceremony and wedding breakfast atmosphere to a whole new level! We got so many compliments on how amazing he was. He's a true rare find. Thankyou so so much Joel, you helped make the day amazing!
