Unforgetable

Tim was absolutely one of the highlights of our wedding!
We received many compliments on his playing and song selection
but his inspired rendition of Tequila (which he composed just for us) was truly unforgetable and totally WOWed our crowd.
Choosing Tim to perform at our wedding was one of the best decisions we made.

Tim is the best!

I highly recommend Tim Maynard for your wedding! We knew we wanted a guitarist/cello for our cocktail hour and were thrilled to find Tim and his accompanist, Jeff. From the start, Tim was responsive, easy to work with, professional, flexible and just an all around great guy. He helped make our ceremony beautiful and memorable and so many guests commented on how excellent his playing was. I can't say enough good things about Tim! He really helped make our wedding day special and memorable.

Review for Tim Maynard

Tim is a very talented guitarist and easy to work with. His playing at our small outdoor wedding last weekend was soft and beautiful. He arrived early and had to play in two different locations at the venue, but he made it look effortless. He also helped us troubleshoot the sound for the vows so that everyone could hear clearly from where they were seated, and it all went perfectly. We highly recommend Tim and are very grateful for his presence on the big day. Thank you for everything Tim!
