We cannot thank Walter enough for the amazing job he did at our wedding. I was referred to Walter by our wedding planner. From our initial consultation, Walter was exceptionally helpful in providing ideas and working with us to create the perfect list of songs. While Walter recommended certain songs for each part of the ceremony and “jazz hour,” he also learned songs that were special to us. Walter would even send e-mails with recordings of the songs he had learned, just to be sure that they were being played exactly how we wanted them.
The ambiance that Walter’s music provided was perfect for our setting. While Walter’s emphasis is on classical guitar, he was more than accommodating in playing many styles of music. Walter’s punctuality and professionalism made his role in our wedding hassle-free. Because Walter worked so closely with us in figuring out exactly what we wanted our wedding day to be like, everything was perfect and went without a hitch. We couldn't be happier with the music and atmosphere that Walter created, and would highly recommend him for any event. Thank you Walter for creating such a beautiful day.

Walter was a complete pleasure to work with and he brought that very special something to our ceremony! His playing is elegant, resonant, and melodic yet he has a perfect sense of artistry that will allow him to be an outstanding soloist or a wonderful asset to a small band or ensemble. He was very helpful in providing suggestions for music that would be wonderful for the occasion. He basically did the vast majority of arrangement for the performance in a very short period of time (outside of a few phone calls) with the vocalist. They were seamless together and brought a higher level of beauty and elegance to our wedding and we are forever grateful to him for that! He is definitely someone that you want to work with if you'd like your affair to be that much more sublime and have a memory that will forever be cherished he is the artist for you. We recommend him with the highest regards!
Walter, thank you so much!

We had the pleasure and joy of having Walter play for our wedding reception, and I cannot recommend him highly enough! From the first time we talked, it was clear that his mission was to make our day as special as possible. Highly recommended by our wedding planner, Walter consulted with us about the types of music we did and did not like, asked for a list of our favorites, and truly listened to what we wanted. He was sure to dress appropriately, arrive promptly, and play beautifully, but more than that, his music lilting through our garden reception was just magical.
We have had many, many compliments from our guests. I would recommend Walter whole-heartedly, and in fact, we have already discussed asking him to be a part of a future event for us. As Richard and I have said many times, "The reception just would not have been the same without Walter's music".
Walter, thank you so much!

Thank you for the beautiful music you provided for our sister’s wedding last weekend.
We so appreciate your advice on music selection and the time you spent rehearsing with Graham and Hayden for their duet. Your attending the rehearsal for a “run through” put us at ease for the big day.
Please extend our thanks to Jenny as well. She was a great support for a smooth ceremony.
You were the perfect touch for Matthew and Brittany’s perfect day. Thank you again for being part of it. It was a pleasure meeting you and working with you.
Best Regards,

'I was initially referred to Walter by my wedding coordinator and I was so grateful! We had Walter play guitar for our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour and are still receiving compliments from our guests. Walter was extremely easy to work with (very flexible with my many changes) and has a huge portfolio of music to select from. We felt Walter's prices were reasonable and his musical ability exceeded our hopes. He is very detail oriented and likes to make sure everything is perfect! We really appreciated such attention to detail for our very special day. We would highly recommend Walter to play any event where you want a highly skilled musician who loves what he does!'

'Having Walter play guitar as my beautiful bride came down the isle - priceless'
Thanks so much for coming down to Bunkie for our wedding - you helped make our day so special - you were integral - we couldn't have done it without you'
- Ashley and Tim B.


'I had a casual wedding and asked Walter to come up with some music to go along with it. Nothing too fancy nothing too 'much'. I figured he knew what to play at a wedding more than I did and I was right. The music he played for us on our wedding day was absolutely stunning and went both with the casual theme of the wedding and with my personal taste in music and style. I would definitely recommend Walter to anyone!'
Thanks so much, again, Walter!
- Kristen P.


Thanks Walter for adding that extra special touch at our wedding. The orange sun setting over the mountains and the sound of romantic music floating along with the breeze was spectacular! We recommend having Walter Biel play at any any of your special occasions!

Walter Biel is "The Real Deal" Plugged or unplugged.Walter brings smiles and bobble heads to everyone. Just like he did at our wedding. He was the pizzazzz, the missing link, the glue; and he came with nice shoes too! We highly reccommend him for any occassion as he is very courteous, a true professional and a barrel o' fun. So, if your lookin' for the "right" man, look no futher; Walters the one!! With sincere gratitude, Thank you Walter and Have a great day.
- Mike and Lisa S.


Walter, your performance was truly touching and your dedication to the material was completely genuine. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you!
- Jenny and Andy S.


We found Walter with just a few weeks to spare before our wedding and he was a huge help! Walter not only showed up on time, dressed nicely and played beautifully for our ceremony, but he helped us choose the music as well. I had a very specific song that I wanted to walk down the aisle to and I had no idea what other songs might compliment it for the other parts of the ceremony. Walter was able to take other songs that had meaning to us and make them work for the processional and gave us recommendations for the recessional. He emailed us samples of how the songs translated into classical guitar and he even played a little on the phone so that we knew exactly what we'd be hearing on our special day. As soon as I heard him playing my song to walk down the aisle, I started to tear up. Walter was a true professional and easy to work with. We highly recommend him!
