    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.

    Tim has my highest recommendation! He exceeded our expectations and made our day even more special! We met Tim about two weeks before our wedding with hopes of him being our musician for our first three dances. I couldn't believe how confident and flexible he was. He had to learn brand new songs for us in less than two weeks!!

    He came prepared to our venue with his professional equipment and worked closely with the DJ and venue before hand to make sure the sound was perfect. My dad, a musician still talks about the sounds quality:) It was perfect.

    His voice is out of this world!! We are SO happy that he could celebrate and be such an important part of our day. I get goosebumps just thinking about it.

    While we were confident Tim would be a great addition to our small, family focused wedding…he managed to exceed our expectations. With a thunderstorm looming, he didn’t miss a beat when the decision was made to move the outdoor ceremony up – eliminating most prelude music. He rolled with it...making the transition undetectable to guests. Then, when the storm arrived, he quickly relocated indoors to set up for our ‘captive’ audience. He entertained, assisted with announcements and watched for our non-verbal cues throughout the night. Even his adlib during the cake cutting was perfect! He was a hit with EVERYONE – especially the three music teachers in attendance. Finally, and most importantly, he was willing to learn a few, lesser-known songs for us. Not only did he pull it off, but they were absolutely beautiful. From our initial discussion, the planning of the music and then the final confirmation, Tim was not only professional, but a friendly and fun individual who clearly wanted to help make our night a special experience. It set the perfect tone to our celebration and we would definitely recommend him to others!

    I read several reviews online before choosing The Acoustic Crooner for our big day. I had confidence from the moment I spoke with Tim that he was going to be an amazing additional to our wedding day. Tim wrote my now husband and I a custom song. The first time we heard our song was on our wedding day. He interviewed my husband and I, separately and together, to get an idea of what to include in our song. Tim also made us a recorded copy, so that we can cherish it forever. It completely blew us away!
    Tim was extremely professional and super responsive through the entire planning process. He played at our ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner, and first dances. I cannot thank him enough for exceeding all our expectations. Don’t hesitate, ladies! The Acoustic Crooner is a class act.

    Tim was the absolute perfect choice for music throughout our wedding day! From the Ceremony all the way through the Reception, Tim was fantastic. Working with Tim was so incredibly easy, and he was very accommodating during the planning process. He was open to all of our ideas for music selection, and was able to provide expert advice where we needed it. Being able to work with Tim to plan music for the entire day, including two different locations (Phipps Conservatory and the Hyeholde), made my experience completely stress free. Not only is Tim an incredibly talented musician, but he also flawlessly MC'd the entire reception. As the bride, I will never forget all of the special touches that Tim incorporated throughout the day. From performing a beautiful acoustic rendition of Here Comes the Bride at our ceremony, to coordinating with one of our wedding guests to perform a piano/acoustic guitar duet to my husband's favorite song, Tim went above and beyond. All of our guests raved about how much they enjoyed listening and dancing to Tim's music. Tim contributed the perfect elegant yet fun ambiance to our ceremony/reception, and I cannot thank him enough! I would absolutely recommend Tim to my friends for any wedding or event.

    Tim selected the perfect music for my ceremony with only knowing the theme that I was going for. He was easy to get in contact with and responded to my emails quickly. I hired Tim to play music for both my ceremony and my cocktail hour, which he was free to choose the songs as I did not pick any out ahead of time. Unfortunately, I was not able to hear him personally but my family and friends raved about him after the wedding and had nothing but compliments. I also asked Tim to learn a revised version of a song to play for my first dance which was absolutely amazing! I couldn't have asked for anything better and would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a unique musician for their ceremony/cocktail hour music.

    Tim provided the music for both the rehearsal dinner and the 3 hour cocktail party for all wedding guests after the dinner. I met with Tim at the location prior to the event and we went over logistics. He was well prepared and easy to contact. He asked for music type and any 'must play' songs. He was very careful to play soft music during dinner and very appropriately began with "Singing in the Rain" since it was pouring and we were under tents. His talents were tremendous. Many people raved about the music. We will definitely use The Acoustic Crooner again!

    While we were unfortunately not present for the cocktail hour, Tim's performance during the ceremony was excellent! We've heard nothing but good things from our guests, who were fortunate enough to enjoy drinks and music from Mr. Ruff. Our 1 1/2 year-old niece was especially captivated by the musician and his melodies! Tim was professional, he presented a beautiful mood for our wedding ceremony, and entertained our guests wonderfully prior to the reception. We would absolutely recommend him for anyone else's special day!
