Jose Garcia was the icing on the cake for our wedding! He is the nicest, most talented person with the greatest voice and personality. Our guests were blown away with Jose’s music and ability to serenade the group despite the 800 degree weather we had that weekend. I will definitely rebook Jose for another event and highly recommend his services.

Here's one more glowing review for Jose. Let me tell you, they are all true. We listened to the samples of several other guitarists and he was, by far, the most proficient and had the most genres to offer. We had a few professional musicians at our reception and they all impressed. He was on time (early, actually) accommodating and very professional. He also learned a piece for us and rehearsed with our singer beforehand, free of charge. It was perfect. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

Having Jose perform at my wedding was the best decision I made. He made all the difference for the wedding he set the mood as a festive one as soon as he started playing. Everyone at the wedding gave me compliments on him and how great it was. I felt like I had the GYPSY KINGS there. He not only satisfied our contract,but excelled. Thank you for everything JOSE YOU ARE THE BEST!!!!!
Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on May 19, 2011•From Santa Monica, CA
I can't rate Jose highly enough! I searched the internet for a spanish accoustic guitar player and found Jose. After we spoke I arranged to see him play with his group Flor de Lis during a regular gig. He was FANTASTIC and we had no doubt that we wanted him to play at our wedding at Shutters, Santa Monica. On each personal/telephone/email interaction Jose was extremely polite, helpful and friendly. Jose played during our wedding ceremony and then for an 1.5hr cocktail reception. He was a HUGE hit. He was very accomodating regarding our play requests and dressed very smartly. We have since been to watch Jose play again. I would recommend Jose without hesitation!

WE LOVE JOSE! Jose played for our wedding and we couldn't be more pleased. He's got a sultry Gipsy Kings kind of vibe and he was so perfect for our cocktail hour and dinner. Not only that, Jose was a true professional and a genuinely nice guy. We live in the Bay Area and Jose lives in Southern California, but he accepted our booking and we're thrilled because we couldn't imagine any other guitarist being a better fit. He's just superb and we highly recommend him and his beautiful music.

JOSE GARCIA WAS FANTASTIC! We can't recommend him enough! He played well during both the wedding and pre-reception, and was really easy to talk to durring our meetings. We really felt he gave us a personalized wedding, and even learned a rare Filipino song for my wife! While kidding around with other buddies, we've noticed that engaged couples won't ask married couples for refferals because they don't want to copy their married friends. Well, DON'T MISS OUT on Mr. Jose Garcia! Book him before your friends do! He'll definitely help make your special event truly YOURS and SPECIAL!

We were extremely pleased with Mr. Garcia's contribution to our event. He was accommodating, relaxed, timely, appropriate in every way, nice to have around, with a good spirit both in his person and his music. He was a fine musician and we wouldn't hesitate to recommend him or use him again ourselves.

Jose is delightful, talented and transformed the evening. What lovely music! What a wonderful musical artist! It's as if he follows the tempo of the evening and chooses the appropriate song at the exact time to go with the changing tones of the crowd. He did so much more for our event than what I could have imagined. Lucky us!

Jose was outstanding. Very professional, extremely talented and very personable. We had 60 Guests in a small space...Jose was wonderful interacting with the crowd and making them a part of the performance. He was also very sociable during his breaks which made our guests feel even more comfortable with him. THANK YOU. He was GREAT.

Jose was an absolute pleasure to work with. Several of our wedding guests have asked where we found him and commented on how wonderful he was! He studied and played music that I selected and sent me audio samples of additional selections that we loved. I walked down the isle to Jose singing and playing "IZ - White Sandy Beach" and it was beautiful. His voice is magical and his playing was angelic! I am always skeptical about booking things/people online, but Jose put my fiance and I at ease. He stayed in close contact before the event, responding to all of my emails (and there were many) and phone calls promptly and made our wedding day PERFECT! Thank you Jose, thank you gigmasters!!!! We recommend Jose Garcia 100%!

I had jose play during my wedding ceremony and cocktail hour. He was amazing. For the ceremony, the music was so romantic. During the cocktail hour I truly felt the gypsy kings were playing. I would definitely love to have him play for us again in the future. There is a lot going on at a wedding, and I didn't have to worry about him at all. He was on time, set up all of his equipment early, and sounded even better in person. Thank you so much for making my wedding beautiful. Mandy

Jose Garcia was a perfect match for our event. He was great! Everyone kept asking me throughout the party where I found him because they enjoyed his sound. My mom, the birthday girl, loved his singing, his guitar playing and overall how he blended well with our group of family and friends. We plan to hire Jose again in the future! You won't be dissapointed!

We were very happy with Jose Garcia's performance for our home event... We hired him because we had a Latin crowd for this event, and expected the kind of music he played... and he more than satisfied all of us! A great artist, and very professional.
Muy satisfechos con la presentacion musical de Jose Garcia. Lo contratamos para un evento en nuestro hogar, con invitados en su mayoria latinos... Lo encontramos muy profesional y un muy buen artista.
