Based in Vancouver, British Columbia, Lenny Pallerstein prides himself on delivering a great wedding atmosphere through instrumental renditions of your favourite pop, R&B and jazz tunes on the guitar. Leonard manages to create a very full and unique sound on his own and creates a professional experience with a personal touch. With customization of set lists, Lenny will add the perfect vibe to your event!
Lenny is also able to offer a duo with either a world class male or female singer, and tents, chairs, and decorative setups if needed
Lenny also has world class musicians under him including violinists, pianists, and horn players of all styles!
I have had the pleasure of working with Lenny Pallerstein on numerous occasions, and I can confidently say that he is one of the most talented guitar players I have ever come across. As a wedding planner, I am always looking for vendors who are professional, reliable, and able to deliver exceptional performances. Lenny checks all of those boxes and more.
From the moment he starts, Lenny's energy and passion for music are palpable. He has an incredible ability to read a crowd and adjust his setlist accordingly, ensuring that everyone is having a great time. Whether he's playing classic rock hits or contemporary pop songs, Lenny's guitar skills are simply unmatched. His solos are breathtaking, and his ability to seamlessly transition between songs is truly impressive.
Aside from his musical talents, Lenny is also an absolute pleasure to work with. He is always punctual, courteous, and willing to go above and beyond to make sure that everything runs smoothly. I have worked with him on events of all sizes, and he always brings the same level of enthusiasm and professionalism to each one.
Overall, I cannot recommend Lenny Pallerstein highly enough. If you're looking for a talented and reliable guitar player for your event, look no further. Lenny is the best in the business, and I feel lucky to have had the opportunity to work with him so many times. 5 stars all around!
Lenny was perfect. He was a sweetheart to work with, and a total breeze to organize. He brought everything he needed for himself (speaker, chair, power, etc.) and then offered extra microphones on top of that! Besides that, his finger-picking guitar style is exactly what we wanted to create a beautiful ambience on our wedding day. Highly recommend!
Lenny is the best! He stuck with us through all the ups and downs of planning of first, COVID-delayed wedding, through our final reception 2 years later. He has a deep music library and is also open to learning new songs upon request. He is really personable but professional on your big day. And such a trooper! He played outside during this heat dome (we found him what shade there was, don't worry), and his energy never flagged. If you're looking for live guitar for a ceremony or reception (or cocktail hour like us), Lenny would be a great addition to your big day.
Before our big day, he generously sent over "snippets" of specific songs we wanted played at our wedding, and it was such a great sneak peek to the amazing playing we heard the day of. He was also so kind to learn a new song we wanted for our processional. We had 110% confidence in his musical abilities, professionalism (including the suit he wore) and his setup. Receiving so many compliments about his playing from family and friends, we would recommend him to any wedding or corporate event!
Response from Lenny Pallerstein Guitar:
Thanks for the kind words Allison! I loved being part of your wedding :)
He played for our ceremony and reception and was extremely flexible and creative with all of our ideas and specific requests. He amazingly improvised when needed and was a true hit with all of our guests. He truly left an impression on everyone. If only we could get married over and over again to just enjoy the experience of listening to him play :). Thank you, Lenny, for making our wedding day magical!
Response from Lenny Pallerstein Guitar:
Thank you Charlene, Wishing you both all the best in the future
I've hired him on multiple occasions to play live music in an outdoor setting. He is so kind and professional - not to mention extremely talented!
Response from Lenny Pallerstein Guitar:
Thank you so much Lauren! I've always had a blast playing for you & your team at Darts Hill :)
We had the privilege of having Lenny perform at our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour. He learned two new songs for us in a short space of time and played them both flawlessly! During the reception, I honestly lost count of how many people told me how great he was. He's an absolute dream to work with and an all round awesome guy. Hire this man with full confidence, you will not be disappointed. We certainly weren't. Thank you so much Lenny for helping to make our day even better!
Response from Lenny Pallerstein Guitar:
Thanks for having me Declan! Wishing you both the best in the future and I hope to cross paths again :)

Hi, I’m Lenny…
I’m a Vancouver-based fingerstyle guitarist. You can find me playing around the lower mainland at hotels, restaurants, corporate events, and weddings.
I pride myself on delivering a great atmosphere through instrumental renditions of your favourite pop, R&B, and jazz tunes on the guitar. Creating a full and unique sound, I offer a professional experience with a personal touch.
Though 90% of my waking hours consist of playing music, the other 10% are typically spent hitting a new PR at the gym, collecting an obscene amount of hot sauces, cooking, or exploring the city.
I am fully self sufficient in terms of technical needs, from outdoor power to sound I'm fully prepared and also can throw in a microphone for your officiant for an extra fee
