  The best!

  We were supposed to get married on October 8th at the Inn on Pamlico Sound. Due to hurricane Matthew we quickly bumped up our wedding by 2 days and scrambled to find a new venue. It was so comforting to immediately get a call from Jessie assuring she would make it there somehow- and she did! She is so talented and I can not say enough wonderful things about the beautiful music she created. Our guests have commented on 2 things they loved: our new wedding date (10-6-16 is better) and the violinist! Thank you Jessie for helping us have the most magical wedding despite the challenges we faced! Having Jessie for our ceremony and cocktail hour was the best (and easiest) decision we made during our planning. Thank you thank you thank you! -Sarah & Fred Ballantyne

  Testimonial from Jodi

  Jessie is amazing and she and her husband did a wonderful job at our wedding on August 8th. I had originally selected another vendor.  Unfortunately, she was very slow to respond. Eventually, I talked to my wedding coordinator and she suggested Jessie. She said, "She is very talented and very responsive. You won't have any issues."  She was exactly right. There is so much to deal with when planning a wedding that it is very difficult getting everything done. Jessie guides you through the whole process and makes it so easy.  She is very easy to work with and prompt.  Most importantly though, she is and her husband are very talented musicians who made our ceremony complete!

  September Wedding- She's amazing!

  Hi,
  We hired Jessie to play the music for our wedding. We selected the violin-oke and it sounded great. We didn't have our music entirely selected until the week of the wedding so I'm sure we weren't the easiest to work with but she was very accommodating and easy to work with. 
  I personally received compliments on how great she was and how her music gave them goosebumps. 
  Please don't hesitate to hire her. You wont regret it.

  Professional, Responsive, and Exceptional Work

  Jessie was a fantastic person to work with for our ceremony music. We made a special music request two weeks before the ceremony and she was so understanding, and she did a fantastic job with the music. She was so quick about responding to all of our emails, and did a great job with handling our concerns. I could not recommend Jessie more highly!

  Daley/Bhatt Wedding 6/18/2016

  I am so happy that I hired Jessie Taylor and her husband to play music during my wedding ceremony! Jessie was so easy to work with and very personable! She took the time to talk to you on the phone and really allow you to find music that suited our wedding and us! Jessie is extremely talented and played beautiful music for our ceremony! I wished we had hired her for our cocktail hour too :)

  6-22-16 Rua Wedding

  Jessie played for our beach wedding and filled the air with absolutely gorgeous music to provide the perfect backdrop for our ceremony.  She played Violin-Oke and my guests were raving with the totally unexpected music coming from her violin.  My only regret is not hiring her to stay longer!!  Jessie: we truly appreciate your talent and thankful you were part of our day -  xx

  Testimonial from Jan & Dave

  Jessie played for us at our wedding at our home. We can not
  recommend her highly enough. From first contact through to the ceremony
  she is a real professional. She answered our questions about music
  selections, her website makes it very easy to review selections, and her
  performance and timing were flawless. She also played two selections we
  specially requested following the ceremony. We were totally satisfied
  with all aspects of Jessie's work for us!

  Testimonial from Dawn

  Oh my where to begin, Jessie is a phenominal talent. She brought the touch of class i wanted to our beach ceremony and reception. We went with her Violin-Oke arrangement and it was beautiful. I did not share all the special surprises of our event and both our families and friends are just raving over Jessie. She sang a special request to my groom and WOW blew me away. Jessie is a true professional not only in her talent, yet her expertise shows in her layout. I just said do your thing and we were blown away, our guests also remarked how familiar and social she felt like blended in. Jessie truly cares and is there to make your day, event, etc everything you want it to be. You just will not be disappointed if you are lucky enough to find her. Thanks Jessie for making our wedding everything i dreamed it could be. ❤️

  6/6/16 Wedding

  I can't even express how incredible Jessie was throughout this whole crazy wedding planning process! She was so helpful from the very beginning!We were originally thinking about doing some type of Ipod/ not live music, but in the end I'm so glad we had Jessie instead! And the price difference between getting speakers, etc for anything prerecorded in the OBX vs having Jessie play was way too minimal to really make a difference in budget. And now looking back I'm so glad we didn't have that extra stress on my family with someone having to try to figure out when to push buttons! Jessie has done so many weddings in the OBX and has worked with our venue (the Hilton) and our officiant (Tony - I DO OBX) so many times that it seemed like clockwork! The ceremony was seamless!
  After meeting Jessie at the wedding expo and after a few very helpful phone conversations, I knew Jessie was undoubtably the perfect pick! I loved that she offered violin/oke and the guitar/vocals as everyone else I found in the OBX only did violin and I am not a big fan of solo violin. Her large selection of repertoire songs were also perfect for our taste in music! Jessie's mix of songs and instruments was absolutely perfect for our wedding - she gave me the ceremony of my dreams! I ended up falling in love with her talent so much that I convinced my husband to have her play during cocktail hour, too! 
  If you're anything like me and not musically inclined at all Jessie is also incredible because she made everything flow together so well! She just asked what songs I liked and I would name a bunch that really didn't fit well beside each other and she organized them so it sounded great and made sense!  She was also incredible in planning the ceremony and helping decide which songs should be violin vs guitar. So much less stress for any bride, especially one like me thats terrible with deciding musical things! Jessie was a lifesaver and such an amazing part of our wedding! If you're trying to decide whether or not to book her, do it. You definitely won't regret it! Choosing her was one of the best decisions I made with my whole wedding! Thank you so much, Jessie!

  Testimonial from Stephanie

  Jessie- where do we begin? You made our wedding on May 25, 2016 absolutely perfect! We made sure to plan our day so we could hear as much of your music as possible! Our guests couldn't stop talking about you and your talent! The set up at village beach club with you playing for the ceremony, cocktail hour and dinner made this such a dream wedding for us! There is not one thing we would change about that day! We couldn't thank you enough!!

  Testimonial from Amanda & Nick

  Nick and I are so happy that we asked you to play violin-oke for our
  ceremony. It was such a special touch to our wedding day and I will
  always remember the beautiful music that played as we tied the knot. We
  were able to incorporate some of our favorite songs to the ceremony, you
  had such a great list of songs to choose from. All of our guests kept
  telling us how wonderful listening to your music was. Thank you so much
  for playing at our wedding!
