Morwenna and Jay were simply lovely to work with (as usual)! They are so easy and I love recommending them. They played even longer they were originally planning to and I'm sure the bride and groom deeply appreciated it.

Hey Andrew,
Jay and Morwenna were fantastic for the ceremony and cocktail hour. They learned two song requests for the ceremony which sounded better than we could have hoped for and were great during the cocktail hour as well.
Thanks again for your help and will definitely recommend Sam Hill.
Thanks!

Hi Andrew,
The group did a wonderful job. Jay and Morwenna are so talented and what beautiful music they played for the ceremony and the cocktail party. They accompanied our soloist with just a five minute practice and they sounded beautiful.
I hope we’re able to use them again.
We look forward to working with you all in the future. Thanks for providing us with such professional and talented musicians all night.

Dear Morweena and Jay,
We just wanted to thank you for your help in making Erin and Payton's wedding very special. Your music is so lovely and you're both so talented that it was a true pleasure listening. Many of our guests commented on how much they enjoyed you too.
Wishing you and your family a wonderful 2018 and, again, thank you.
Kind regards,
Lisa Duncan
Morwenna and Jay are ridiculously good musicians! I know Morwenna (she taught my daughter violin), but it was Jay and I that interacted the most beforehand. They did the ceremony itself so it had a lot of special requests from a stressed bride...Jay handled that with aplomb, gracefully handling things when they became very last minute. I know it was my own wedding and I am biased, but it was super elegant and they were the perfect touch...elegant but not too traditional, talented, young/youthful ... after the ceremony, they played over the top of an outside cocktail party and the music (such as their song, The Hollow) was floating over the scene in a lovely way. It kind of took me back how idyllic it seemed.

Dear Andy,
I'm so sorry for this late answer, time flies! You asked us some feedback on our wedding day and I could speak about it for hours as it was just beautiful and amazing.
Morwenna and Jay are so super talented and we were so lucky to have them, as their music was fitting perfectly with our ceremony and more generally with the ambiance of the wedding : intimate ceremony (60 people) and a cocktail in the same location of the ceremony, family, friends !
At cocktails, we regularly stopped our congratulation tour to listen to them playing, just because their music helped us to rest, to relax and it was so aligned with the wedding. It was nice, light but present, simple and everybody loved it. We did a lovely friendly lunch wedding and I could not have dreamed of something better for the ceremony and the cocktail.
I personally think they are amazing and their music the perfect fit. I'm not sure this feedback is really helpful, but I just think we had the best !

Hi Andy,
Jay and Morwenna were fantastic! I had guests asking all throughout the evening about them, which is no surprise having worked with them as often as I have. They are gems and I hope they stay in the area for many more special occasions!
Thanks again and enjoy the weekend,
Lauren

We've had the great pleasure of sharing a few stages with Morwenna and Jay and they knock our socks off every time we hear them. Two of the most soulful and gifted players we've had the honor of knowing over the years, M & J bring an energy to their music that's inspiring to all of us musicians and fans.

The music of Morwenna Lasko and Jay Pun was the perfect accompaniment to my wedding day. Jay and Morwenna helped me select music that set the exact atmosphere I wanted for the ceremony. They were a delight to work with and did an excellent job. The day would not have been the same with anyone else!

As an event planner, I've worked with Morwenna & Jay over the past years in and around Charlottesville. Besides being extremely talented musicians, they are easy to work with from an event planning stand point. They are very communicative and can be flexible in terms or start time and ends times. They are definitely one of my favorite local groups...and I never hesitate to recommend them to a client who is looking for a unique touch during their ceremony or cocktail hour. Their music is memorable, that's for sure!
