Look no further! Ben is absolutely amazing! I asked the impossible - play a multi-part string piece as one guy with a guitar - and he NAILED IT! Ben learned several new songs just for me. He learned to play the Piano Guy's version of the Cello Song on the guitar and it made for the most beautiful ceremony processional. Because that song has many parts that are normally played by several stringed instruments and percussion, he made recordings of the percussion and used a looper to get the full effect of the song - sounding like many people, when it was just him. He was so flexible with timing, too. I used the same song for the entire processional and wanted a specific part of it for just me. He was able to work in that moment to flawlessly repeat sections of the song until I was ready to take my steps with my father. It came out beautifully. Everyone at the wedding was so impressed by his playing. Book him! You won't be disappointed!

Ben was very organized and professional. I would highly recommend him. He was a pleasure to work with.

My only regret is that I didn't get to hear ALL of his music (i was tucked away during the prelude)! Ben was great to work with and we (and all our guests) loved his contribution to our ceremony and cocktail hour. We chose some songs that Ben had on his site and also worked with him to play a song that was new to him for our recessional. It came out amazing! He was also professional, kind, and a GREAT acoustic guitar player. We would highly recommend him!

Ben was wonderful! We had him perform the music for our ceremony and pre-ceremony. He learned a few songs we requested and even sent us samples of the songs he had prepared for us. On the day of the event, he arrived early to prepare. He was prompt, easy to work with, talented, professional, and affordable. The music was excellent and the perfect fit for our event!

Ben was great to work with from start to finish. He was very organized and responsive. He even learned "Perfect" by Ed Sheeran at our request and he nailed it. His acoustic play was a perfect fit for our small outdoor wedding.

Ben was very professional and helped to make our ceremony and cocktail hour perfect. His music is wonderful and exactly what we were looking for.

Ben is so awesome to have in your wedding. He’s very responsive and his selections are amazing! My guests love him and he did a great job!

Ben was great to work with!!!!! He was very patient and willing to learn a few songs that were not already on his repertoire. He was also so flexible -- we had to move the ceremony from outdoor to indoor the week of. My guests also really enjoyed his music. His rate is so reasonable and would 100% recommend for anyone's special day. My only recommendation is to increase the number of songs in his current repertoire; however, it's already pretty big.

Ben Sherman is not only a very endeared and much admired, long time, local area musician, with such incredible talent, but also has become a good friend over our 3 years together as a couple - seeing him as often as we can. Being well known to both of us, long before we met, it was a treat to see Ben play for our first date that included live, local music - a great passion of ours. Once we were engaged a year later, we immediately asked that he would do us the honor of being part of our special day. Ben agreed, of course! From the start, Ben went above and beyond to make sure that every part of the prelude, ceremony, and all the way through to our first dance was exactly as we hoped it would be, including helping with a very special song we requested, with additional lyrics written by Ben in such a touching way - knowing how much they described us joining together as one on that memorable day. For those attending our wedding, including those who also knew Ben Sherman as a... Read more friend and fellow musician, the expectations were very high, and exceeded in every way. Thank you so much Ben for adding to a wonderful day, and start to our future together, with your musical performance - it was amazing and truly appreciated! - Chuck & Martha Smith

Ben was very prompt and professional. He was great at checking in and sending me gentle reminders when I needed to send him info or a payment. I'm sad I didn't get to actually meet him in person at the wedding, but he played all the requested songs and they were beautiful!! I asked for some of my mom's favorite Beatles songs and she had tears in her eyes when she heard them. He even provided a microphone for our officiant and was able to adapt to having the wedding at a barn with no electricity. Highly recommend!

After me and my fiance heard Ben’s samples on his website we knew we wanted him to play guitar for our ceremony and cocktail hour. His selections were broad and and he was more than open to learning a new song for our big day. He was honest and very helpful as we chose our songs. I highly recommended using Ben for your big day! He did a phenomenal job on our 9/2/2018 wedding at the Chesapeake Bay Beach Club.

Wonderful! The music Ben provided at my daughter’s wedding was beautiful He is very professional, responsive, and easy to work with. He was willing to learn the music to accompany my niece’ s solo, and really took the initiative in making sure we had exactly what we wanted for the wedding and cocktail hour.

Ben was a great addition to our cocktail hour and ceremony. We had a small to moderate amount of people in attendance and I think the mood was accentuated just right with his music. He played a mix of classical and contemporary acoustic pieces, which made for a wonderful ambiance for our wedding!

Ben played our outdoor cocktail hour for our wedding in June of this past year. He provided the perfect ambiance in the garden with his beautiful acoustic music. He provided us with music he typically plays and then allowed us to add songs, which he learned just for our event. He was the consummate professional and stayed in contact through out the preceding months, as we booked him a long time in advance. If you have any doubts about who you want to play at your wedding or event, don't hesitate to pick Ben.
