Mark!! I didn't even get the time to say "Hi" and greet you last weekend, very sad about that/The hours just flew by and then you were gone. So sorry about that! But you were wonderful and professional, someone even thought you were three different guitarists, because your moves around were so seamless. Thank you for being a part of our day, learning a new song for us and for making the mood so amazing. We wish you all the best! Best regards, Eirik and Elin.

We asked Mark if he would be available to play during the cocktail hour for our wedding, and we are so glad that we did. Not only did he play beautifully as the guests gathered, he also played brilliantly for the cocktail hour which really helped set a relaxed and sophisticated atmosphere. He also kindly took control of the recorded music for our ceremony, which made our lives much simpler. In addition to all that, he was responsive to emails ahead of the day and very friendly on the day. Another wonderful thing about Mark is that he proudly shared a photo of himself with both my wife and I on his social media after the event - as a queer couple, we felt this was important and touching as it shows inclusivity and pride in working with a diverse range of couples. Thanks Mark, for a brilliant service.
