Wedding Reviews

Mr. Wyton was wonderful!!! He learned two songs for our wedding, "Come thou Fount" and "Be Thou Vision." They were beautiful and made our ceremony so special to us! Thank you so much for being so accommodating with song choices and for setting the tone for our wedding! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Chris Wyton performed for our daughter's wedding ceremony and cocktail hour following - he was terrific. Chris graciously assisted in the planning and development of the song list, accompanied me for a special song, and even came to the venue for a second meeting upon our request. He is an amazing talent and a gentleman. Guests repeatedly commented on how much they enjoyed Chris' style and musical selections. I highly recommend Chris Wyton.

Chris was great to work with! He was responsive and flexible and accommodated our song list for the ceremony, which included some not so usual requests, like "Moves Like Jagger." He even played "Pure Imagination" from Willy Wonka for the bridal processional! We've had numerous comments about how great Chris was for both the ceremony and reception! He was a perfect fit for our wedding!

Chris performed during the ceremony and cocktail hour at my wedding. He's extremely talented and I received many positive comments and compliments from guests. He was communicative, very easy to work with and he had no trouble learning a song I requested, despite it being an obscure selection with no available sheet music. He somehow found a way to learn and practice the song and he played it as I walked down the aisle. The guitar was a really nice touch at the wedding and Chris played beautifully. Well done and thank you, Chris!

Christopher Wyton was a wonderful asset at my daughter's outdoor wedding. We had numerous special requests - type of music, special songs, where and when he would play, accompanying a singer, and more. He was gracious and timely in his responses as well as accommodating. He even made a special trip to the venue to meet my daughter (music was my special job) to reassure her and to coordinate the transitions for the ceremony. The guests commented that they loved the amazing music he created with his guitar. He even helped the photographer and others to get everything inside when a rainstorm surprised us. He is an excellent musician and a true gentleman. I'm trying to think of an event so we can call on him again!

Chris was a real find and rare talent! Performed outdoors in 50 degree temps for daughter's wedding. Don't know how he kept those picking-fingers from getting numb, but guests were commenting all night. Showed remarkable flexibility when also needing to schedule practice-sessions (not part of the contract) with a vocalist/singer to coordinate in advance of event. Chris seems to be able to play anything. We asked for a few songs that one wouldn't think would be in a classical guitarist's "playlist" ... but he learned and perfected them quickly. Look no further....

Chris was absolutely fantastic. He was quick to respond, was very nice about learning our song choices for walking down and up the aisle, and is incredibly talented. He played before our ceremony, and then during cocktail hour and many of our guests (who included several professional musicians) stopped us to tell us how great he was. Don't wait, book him now!

We're so happy that Chris was part of our wedding day! He was easy to communicate with, very professional, and went above and beyond to make our big day a success. There was a specific song I wanted to walk down the aisle to, and Chris learned it and did a great job. He also brought a lapel mic for our officiant so that everyone was able to hear our outdoor ceremony. We would happily recommend his services to others. Thank you Chris!!

Private Parties

We were extremely pleased with Chris. He was a perfect musician for our dinner party; his talent is amazing and his selection of music was perfect. He made our party a success. All of our guests could not stop complimenting his performance. We HIGHLY recommend Chris and would use him again in a second if we ever need a musician. Our friends may use him as well. Thanks Chris for a job done perfectly. You are the best.

Chris arrived on time, set up quickly and began to play. He learned the new songs I requested and played a mix of songs that blended exquisitely with the evening. Our guests were thrilled and commented afterwards that that the music was sublime. I would highly recommend Chris for any event. He is a true artist who understood what we wanted and played beautifully. Thanks Chris!

Music Education

Mr. Wyton gave my eight year old son guitar lessons for two years. He started with no experience and at the end of the two years he was proficient in many styles of guitar. At the last recital Mr. Wyton hosted my son performed and arrangement of a Bach Cello prelude and "Stairway to Heaven." We were so proud of our son and happy for Mr. Wyton's tutelage.

Chris has been the guitar teacher for may son for close to 10 years, starting at elementary school and now that he goes to college. Before finding Chris, we had hired other teachers but they were not good and didn’t care. Chris is really good at explaining different topics and connecting the theory to practice. He really cares about his students, and has always taken an interest in my son’s progress and success in playing guitar, school, and other activities. He is patient and knows how to relate to the student and motivate them. Chris is an accomplished guitar player with great record of success, who serves as a good example for his students. He is a professional who enjoys teaching and knows how to adjust to different ages and styles. Chris knows how to play a variety of music styles and keeps student interest in mind. My son is always excited and looks forward to the lessons with Chris every week. I give Chris my highest recommendation and happy to serve as a reference for him.

I started taking lessons with Chris 3 weeks ago. I hadn't taken lessons in several years and after an initial interview, I felt like we would work well together and we do. He's patient and I love his teaching style.

Chris has been giving my son Griffin (16) guitar lessons once a week for almost four years. He has almost become like a big brother to Griffin. Chris plays the guitar absolutely beautifully and his teaching has helped Griffin to truly fall in love with the instrument. I believe Griffin will play the guitar for the rest of his life and it's because of Chris. Chris is a professional guitarist; lessons is not something he does just on the side. He plays for events multiple times a week. I even hired him to play at an event for my company. He was incredible. Chris is just such a nice guy. He is a great role model for my son....not only as a guitar player but as a person.
