    "We really appreciated how great John sounded and the professionalism with which he handled the booking process, the lead up to our wedding and the day itself. He made it very simple and easy to ask for exactly what we wanted and he was very self sufficient on the day, we didn't worry once! And to top it off he was a phenomenal musician and created the perfect atmosphere for our guests to relax and enjoy themselves. Entertainment Nation were very professional in helping us connect with John and answered any questions we had quickly and clearly. Very friendly too. Would hire again!"
    Lewis - Wedding - London
    "John could not be faulted. His musical abilities were superb and all my guests commented on his performance and choice of music. He is also a charming character and I have no hesitation in recommending him to anyone who wants a very professional artist for a special occasion."
    Graham - Party
    "John was a pleasure to deal with from start to finish, an absolute gentleman. His skilled performance added an air of effortless class to our wedding day which was appreciated by and commented on by all in attendance."
    Jack - Wedding
    "John was absolutely wonderful and we're so glad he could play for us. He plays beautifully and flawlessly and really transforms the ambience in the room. He's such a friendly, kind person and is super organised, taking care of everything for you. We cannot recommend him highly enough and will definitely be booking him in again in the future. Thanks again John!"
    Karlene - Wedding
    "John was professional and thorough throughout. Communication was faultless, he was well dressed and punctual, very accommodating to my requests and of course a supremely talented guitarist. He played an hour continuously in a noisy outdoor setting for a small audience without any issues. If you're in doubt, book this man for your event!"
    Abdul - Party
    "On a sunny day in July we had the wedding of our dreams in the garden of our family home. The day was made even more magical by the sublime music, played with unobtrusive charm by John Pizzati. His guitar playing was wonderful. As one guest said, "I didn't even get to the entry of the bride, I started crying for the beauty of the music!" We will always be grateful that he was a part of our day and he will probably never know what an important part he played."
    Lottie & Dan - Wedding
    "John was thoroughly professional and excellent all the way from booking to packing up at the end of his performances. He accommodated our requests and performed exactly what we were looking for. We were really pleased with him and would recommend him! Thanks John!"
    Fern - Wedding
    "A big thank you for coming to play at our party last Saturday! We feel so lucky it could go ahead and we had such nice weather too. We honestly couldn't be more pleased with you being there and playing - it was beautiful, and created such a wonderful atmosphere! You've also been so easy to work with and it's all been so relaxed, thank you."
    Amy - Party
    "John was a wonderful addition to our wedding ceremony - he really lifted it up and made it very special. He was very reliable and professional (he even got there before I did!) and he was completely stress free to work with; he was also able to work with the venue's odd rules on seating. He learned a song special to us and played it beautifully. Highly recommended."
    Patrick - Wedding
    "We were unsure about what musician to have for our special moment walking down the aisle, and we had left things quite last minute with little budget left in our pot. We decided we would go for a guitarist and what a good decision that was. Not only did John create a vibrant atmosphere to add to an already sentimental moment, but he went over and beyond and kept guests entertained with the sweet sound of his wide portfolio of song choice. To say he was the cherry on top of the cake would be an understatement, he really made our ceremony that much better and I would highly recommend him to anyone for any event. Thank you John."
    Rabeeh - Wedding

He made it very simple and easy to ask for exactly what we wanted and he was very self-sufficient on the day, we didn't worry once! And to top it off he was a phenomenal musician and created the perfect atmosphere for our guests to relax and enjoy themselves."
    Lewis - Wedding
    "Thank you John for putting on a wonderful performance for our guests! Your music was the perfect backdrop for our reception. Hope we meet again!"
    Hannah & Jan - Wedding
    "We hired John for our garden wedding and he was fantastic! Prepared, polite, punctual and professional, could not fault him if we tried. We're extremely happy with his contribution as we felt he really added to our special day. Highly recommend."
    Naomi - Wedding
    "We hosted an outdoor, pre-wedding welcome party at a restaurant in Cambridge. We found John very easy to work with and extremely professional. He communicated with the restaurant to firm up logistics and arrived promptly with all the necessary gear. He reached out to us well in advance of our function to work with us on song selection and even enquired about how he should dress. His playing was a wonderful addition to our event. We would highly recommend his services to anyone."
    Lee & Leslie - Party - Cambridgeshire
    "I cannot recommend John more highly! He is an absolute professional who made contact with me well ahead of the event to collect all the relevant information including event schedule and music preferences, and ensure all arrangements are in place. On the day, John was superb! Not only is he a wonderfully talented musician who was greatly appreciated by guests (indeed, several commented that they want to hire him for events in the future!), but he was reliable, punctual, and was kind enough to even play a bit longer when our DJ ran late (thank you again, the DJ did turn up eventually). Our wedding celebration was greatly enhanced by having John there and I would have no hesitation in recommending him to all my family and friends."
    Ioana - Wedding
    "Thank you so much for yesterday. You really made such an impact and the comments from all the guests about your music were lovely."
    Live Guitarist Review
    "We would like to express our wholehearted thanks to you for providing the perfect musical backdrop to our wedding reception. Many of the guests commented on how much they enjoyed your performance. We were impressed with your professionalism and flexibility in helping us to choose the repertoire. We hope you enjoyed the day as much as we did."
    Guitarist Review
    "We had John Pizzati play at our wedding in April 2017. He was very helpful in suggesting songs, as well as being willing to learn specific pieces which we had requested. We and our guests really enjoyed the performance, which was of a very high standard. We were also grateful for John's flexibility when the timings of the performance were different from expected. We would highly recommend John to anyone looking for a musical performance at their event."
