The most wonderful musician and human! Hire Tim now!

Tim was an absolute delight. He understood exactly what we wanted from a guitarist during our ceremony and cocktail hour. Also, I must say as a true professional, when I requested that Tim not sing during our ceremony processional, he lightly pushed back and expressed that the singing isn't a distraction, and that the songs don't usually sound as elegant and beautiful without it. I really appreciated his advice and that he so kindly and respectively expressed why he felt differently. I went with my gut and trusted Tim. He learned Lover by Taylor Swift for me to walk down the aisle to, and he absolutely nailed it. And he was right. Hearing the lyrics as I walked down the aisle was truly an experience I'll never forget. It made that moment so perfect and I even sang along. Hire Tim for your wedding, you won't regret it! He is so talented and kind and is such a pro. Thanks again Tim!

I cannot speak highly enough of Tim and his amazing talents as a wedding musician. From the moment I heard him play at my sister's wedding, I knew that when I got married I had to have him be a part of my special day as well. Tim is not only an extremely talented guitar player, but also an amazing singer/songwriter. His musicality is unmatched by any wedding musician I have ever heard perform! Tim played during our ceremony, cocktail hour and all of our first dances. The music he played was absolutely beautiful and I was told by several of our wedding guests how impressed they were with his talent! He made the moment I walked down the isle so special playing the song I chose so flawlessly. He was willing to learn new songs that I requested for the ceremony and for our first dances without an issue! It was so nice to have complete confidence in our wedding musician and he was able to set the tone for our special moments so perfectly. He truly went above and beyond my expectations for the music during our wedding day! He is an exceptional musician, professional, and extremely easy to work with. He is very quick to respond and was able to give direction in song choices to bring everything together perfectly. I HIGHLY recommend Tim to any couple looking for a phenomenal live solo musician for their special day. He will not disappoint and it will be one of the best decisions you make for your wedding day, I guarantee!!

When we came across Tim, and heard him sing, we knew he was absolutely who we wanted to have at our small wedding. It was absolutely perfect from start to finish. Tim totally exceeded our expectations. And despite feeling a little under the weather and him feeling his voice wasn't 100% (you would never know when heard him sing), he pushed through and gave us an unforgetable night. Complete with special song requests that he learned for us. Tim was also helpful in planning the flow of of the day and that was very appreciated. Truly an amazing talent, professional, and gentleman (and great sense of humor)...It was a privilege to have him perform at our wedding.
