Joe, you were amazing! You were on time, super accommodating and exactly the type of entertainment we were looking for at our wedding!! Thank you so much for your performance and your time on Saturday. We had several comments on how wonderful you were from our guests too.

I have 20 years of experience performing for wedding ceremonies and cocktail hours. I have played in almost any imaginable location, from beaches to churches.  I specialize in traditional classical guitar music for ceremonies, but I also enjoy arranging nontraditional songs for solo guitar. Couples have requested everything from Beatles to Black Sabbath and given enough notice, I am happy to oblige. 

 

Rates for Solo Guitar:

$300 ceremony

$500 ceremony + cocktail hour

(prices may increase for events beyond San Diego county)

 

Looking for more musicians?  I'm lucky to work with some incredible musicians and can assemble a group to meet your needs.

My husband and I really enjoyed working with Joe Amato. Before the wedding day arrived he was extremely receptive to taking requests from his repertoire list. He also went above and beyond by playing some songs that were not listed and new. His playing was beautiful on the wedding day and we loved hearing our favorites. He arrived on time and took care of his own set up in plenty of time for the event. I would recommend Joe Amato to any of my friends for their special events!
