Celeste has traveled to Arizona twice to perform at birthday parties I threw in my back yard. What a hit she was! Her performances just took the parties up another level and all the guests just loved her. Everyone was dancing all evening. She and Rene were easy to work with and kind to all the guests. I would strongly encourage anyone who wants to have a very special party to consider hiring Celeste. Her voice is gorgeous and her song interpretations are fantastic. She sends a list and you get to pick the songs you want. I cannot say enough about this talented woman. read more

Celeste is an amazing artist! Her voice is beautiful and rich. She's highly versatile in the styles and genres she sings. I have had the great pleasure of hearing her in several locations around Oceanside. My favorite is her sound baths. It's a rare mix of singing bowls, gongs, other percussion instruments, singing, whistling, working in tandem with her wife, Rene, helping each person to experience of healing and tranquility. She's kind, lovely, helpful, and warm. I'm so glad to have experienced her talents. read more

So very talented and entertaining! I've followed her to many venues throughout the years and would surely hire her for events. read more

We recently held a lovely outdoor celebration of life for our daughter at El Camino Memorial Park in Sorrento Valley. Celeste was exceptional as celebrant, serving as both officiant and soloist for the event. She guided us through the planning process with compassion and took great care to understand who our daughter was through conversations with and written comments of family members. Together we chose several songs for Celeste to sing as guests arrived and others she would sing during the celebration of life. An ordained minister, she facilitated the service with thoughtful and consoling words and spiritual reflections appropriate to our situation. Our choice was to have several family members speak, with three songs interspersed through the program. Celeste eased these transitions seamlessly and her singing is simply luminous. My husband and I are grateful for the extraordinary care, sympathy, and peace that Celese provided to honor our daughter's life in such a beautiful way. read more

Celeste is amazing!! After searching weeks for someone to officiate my mother's celebration of life in Palm Desert, I luckily discovered Celeste and her officiating services which included her phenomenal singing. From the moment I spoke to her, I knew I wanted her to officiate and sing at my mother's celebration of life. Not only does she have an amazing voice and compassionate heart, she ensured every detail was covered and guided us through the structure and arrangement of the program to create a balanced flow of content. She made me feel comfortable and I knew I could trust her to capture the day that we envisioned with her professional experience and talent. Celeste went above and beyond to know everything about my mother's life to make the ceremony extra personal. She kindly offered to learn a favorite song of my mom's that was not included on her extensive playlist and found a quote from mom's favorite author to share in her honor. Celeste was uplifting, engaging, spiritual, respectful, and eloquently managed the entire service to include our faith, stories, prayers and songs that fully highlighted the special person my mother was to all of us. We received many compliments from our family and friends praising how beautiful and heartfelt the ceremony was. Thank you Celeste! read more

You must hire Celeste!! Not only did Celeste bring such a beautiful ambiance to our wedding day, but her voice is out of this world! She sang during the pre-ceremony, our walk down the aisle, and the cocktail hour of our wedding. We received so many compliments about her performance. In addition to weddings, Celeste sings for many events, and also does community events in San Diego County. She is affordable and lovely to work with. Her library of songs is quite extensive, and if she doesn't have a song you want, she can learn it for you for an additional fee. We took advantage of that add on and are so grateful that we did. read more

Every few months I go to the "Cigar Cave" in Hillcrest to enjoy a cigar before hitting a movie at the Landmark. Imagine my surprise when I went in tonight, and I see they have live music. Well, as someone that has gone to hundreds and hundreds of concerts over the years, the idea of seeing a local singer never really excites me. Yet sometimes I'm surprised. This was one of those nights. Now, to put into perspective just how surprised I was -- it's midnight. I just got home from seeing her, and I felt compelled to log on and sing her praises (no pun intended). Since the theme of this evening was "Gangsters & Molls" we were treated to a lot of the old jazz standards. I got to hear two songs from "Chicago" that were incredible. A few Etta James tunes that were as great as the original versions. She even took a few contemporary songs (Britney Spears "Toxic" and Megan Trainors "All About the Bass") and made them sound like they were right out of the roarin' 20s. As I told her after the performance, it was the only time I've heard a Guns and Roses song I liked (her version of "Sweet Child of Mine"). This is the best local singer I've seen in years. I was simply blown away. Now, after posting this, I'm going to go to her website and see where she's performing next. I'm just hoping it's not a private party, so my wife and I can get in. read more
