Super talented and great to work with!

Robert Ryan Irwin was an outstanding wedding musician! When we reached out to see if Robert could play our wedding, he was incredibly responsive and super professional. He played some amazing music and set a phenomenal vibe at our wedding. I couldn't recommend Robert as a wedding musician highly enough :)

Fall winery wedding

I honestly can’t remember how we came across Robert, but I am SO glad we did. We live in Houston but got married just north of Austin, TX. Before hiring him, we made a trip up to see him perform and knew right away that we were sold. He is accommodating, patient, and has such a pure talent and love for the music he sings. We requested a couple of songs for him to learn for our wedding and not only did he do it without hesitation, but he absolutely nailed them.

We could not have asked for a more special person to be a part of our big day. It was an intimate winery wedding and his acoustic vibe was perfect. Hands down one of the best decisions we made.

An amazing part of our wedding

For our wedding in October 2019, we wanted our guests to experience the kind of relaxed, Hill Country evening — complete with Texas country music, of course — that we have enjoyed so many times before. We had heard Robert play at a few Hill Country venues and loved his music, so we asked him to play for our wedding. Best choice ever! He has a great set list and we were able to pick the songs we liked for the wedding, which included many favorites. He was also kind enough to learn a new song (“Thank You” by Led Zeppelin) for our processional. It turned out great and made the moment of walking down the aisle all the more meaningful. We and our guests had a blast dancing to his tunes during the reception. Our family and friends simply could not believe how awesome he was, and we got received of compliments about him during and after the wedding. Robert was really wonderful to work with in the weeks leading up to the wedding - responsive, ever-professional, and very helpful. I know our wedding coordinator enjoyed working with him as well. Our wedding was indeed a magical Hill Country evening, and Robert was a huge part of that. We highly recommend him!

Texas Country Gold

Robert is SO talented and easily one of our favorite decisions we made for our wedding. We wanted a chill, Texas country vibe and that's exactly what we got with Robert. Hire him, before his dates fill up!

Amazing Acoustic Americana Wedding Singer

Robert Ryan Irwin did an amazing job at the wedding of our daughter. The wedding was the first wedding at Two Wishes, a new event venue at a ranch in Lockhart. Mr. Irwin’s music was the perfect balance for the elegant rustic setting. He added music to his extensive playlist in order to play our daughter’s special song. He customized the music he played to the couple’s favorite songs. He arrived 3 hours early to insure the sound system was perfect. Mr. Irwin helped to create a very relaxed and enjoyable evening - the best day of our daughter’s life! He performs a wide range of music, does a great job and is a super guy! We are really glad Robert and his music were a part of a very special day!

An Incredible and Professional Musician

I hired Robert to play at my wedding just over a week ago and I could not be more impressed with how professional he was from when I booked him months ago to the day of my wedding. Robert was helpful, flexible, and kind throughout every step of the process. I was able to share a list of songs that I enjoyed from his setlist and added in a few of my own too. Robert truly tailored his setlist to sound exactly like we had hoped and even added in my special requests as well. The most special part was that he sang an acoustic version of my ceremony and first dance songs. It made our day so much more memorable. My guests absolutely loved him and we asked him to stay longer because we were having so much fun. He was hands down my best vendor for my entire wedding and I would definitely hire him for an event in the future. I can't wait to see him play at more gigs too. If you're on the fence about booking a musician for a special event, I encourage you to go with Robert. You won't be disappointed!

Incredible wedding performer

Robert Irwin made our wedding 100 times better. His music was absolutely superb - he played for over 3 hours and literally did not play one song that people didn't know or didn't like. Since the wedding I've had multiple people ask me about him, how I found him, and if I had seen him before. I hadn't seen him prior to this but my wife and I will be going to whichever shows he has in or around Austin because he was incredible.

He was also extremely helpful for us in keeping the timing right, moving things forward, and letting people know what to expect and when. Honestly, my wife and I could not have been more pleased with Robert's help. We would never ever pick someone else for our wedding.

I can't speak highly enough about him and I highly recommend him for any other wedding!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
