played Claire de Lune huddled under a canopy. Thank you for being flexible while performing in less than ideal conditions for our unexpectedly rainy May wedding in Paso Robles. We loved your vibe and the music you shared for our ceremony, first dance, and reception. Your professionalism and communication before our big day was exceptional. My anxious bride mind was always at rest, with full confidence that you would deliver the magical live music I had always hoped for on my wedding day.  What a gift, we were so lucky to have you be part of our special day.

We can't thank him enough for sharing his talent with us on what was truly a spectacular day.

There's nothing quite like the magic of walking down the aisle or sharing your first dance to the tunes of a gifted singer-songwriter like Dave. He adds an unforgettable touch to any wedding celebration.

understand the type of music that my husband and I love, making the music one of my favorite parts of the night. He is very talented and we received many compliments on how lovely his voice was. I highly recommend Dave to anyone looking for a wedding musician, you will not be disappointed!

for audio, and openly communicated with us promptly before the event. He was punctual and professional on the day of the event, and most importantly did a fantastic job playing beautiful music. We received so many compliments on what a beautiful ambiance his music created. We could not recommend him more!

y husband and my special song as I walked down the aisle is a magical memory I’ll treasure forever! We felt so comfortable putting our wedding in his hands. Would absolutely recommend!!

nd!!

as well, which is invaluable when planning a wedding (or any event). He is extremely responsive, so professional, and happily accommodating. From booking, to site planning, to learning special song requests, to setup and takedown, he is beyond prepared - he brings no stress and only adds joy to the day. He might have been the only vendor of our day that didn’t experience any hiccups, when he certainly could have (I’m sure seamlessly moving to three different locations throughout the night - inside and outside - at a large venue in a remote area is not easy! But we never even noticed the transitions!). Without a doubt, his beautiful renditions of all of our favorite songs amplified the magic of the day by about a thousand. It was like being in our own romance movie with the best soundtrack. Before I even made it down the aisle, the whole crowd was already in tears from his music. My husband’s mom had trouble getting through her reading because she was so moved by his rendition of Annie’s Song by John Denver. You simply can’t recreate the kind of emotion Dave’s music evokes. We feel SO lucky to have been able to experience it. Dave performed for our ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception. His wife, Victoria, is also a musician and joined in for some songs as well - which was amazing! Booking Dave for your event will be the most special gift you could give yourselves - hearing him play all of our favorite songs on our wedding day was like reliving all of the best moments in our relationship. Our hearts were so full, and we’re already thinking of planning a weekend getaway to see Dave play again!

would allow for it, but he made it work for us. David’s extreme talent to create a mood and wonderful romantic atmosphere is so impressive. He played smooth and soulful acoustic classics for our pre-wedding signature cocktail hour as our guests were arriving and mingling and then did a fabulous job playing our selected songs during our processional. His willingness to learn two additional, personally selected songs meant so much to us and definitely was the highlight of our wedding day. The first was one of our favorites for our Unity in Glass Ceremony and then he accompanied our daughters as they sang a very special rendition of Alicia Keyes “If I ain’t got you”. We would absolutely recommend David to any bride and groom who are looking to add a quintessential touch to their wedding day!

age. After listening to a few of his songs we knew in our hearts we must have him perform during our wedding ceremony. He played acoustic mix with vocal and the vibe was very romantic. Our guests gave us many compliments regarding Dave’s performance. Dave was very sweet and professional. He always respond to our emails in a quick manner and very flexible with last minutes requests. We were very pleased with his service and would recommend anyone who’s looking for a live music for their weddings. You would not regret hiring Dave! -Su & Hero

nuine musical experience to their special event of any kind. His vocal capabilities along side being a masterful guitarist are enough to captivate any audience. Thank you Dave, our wedding music was exquisite!

Dave’s voice and musical skill are second-to-none, and all of our guests raved about him. He truly went above and beyond, honoring all of our musical requests and helping us come up with song ideas to set the tone we wanted. Dave is an absolute professional and has superb attention to detail. Both his cover songs and his originals are incredible. We also utilized his sound system to avoid the additional cost of a DJ. He exceeded all expectations! We couldn’t recommend him more highly. Thank you, Dave, for helping to make our wedding truly magical!

al song. It was beautiful! I would recommend Zion Wedding to anyone and everyone who is looking for a top notch acoustic performer for their wedding.

a few special songs that we requested. My husband and I and our guests were blown away and we couldn't have been happier with the results and pure talent! We absolutely recommend this company!

what I was trying to pull off. Dave offered up great advice, provided me with some recommended song selections and even went so far as to learn a special song request I had so he could play it while I was proposing. Before my fiancée even realized that a proposal was forthcoming, she was already crying at the view and hearing Dave’s voice. She said it was the most romantic place she had ever been without even knowing that everything had been arranged for our engagement. Needless to say, it only got better from there. Thank you Dave for making our engagement such a romantic and special evening!!! I could not have done it without you.

rk with, and his vocals and acoustic guitar performance of Peaceful Easy Feeling for our processional/recessional actually brought tears to my eyes, as my Dad was walking me down the aisle. Dave is an incredibly talented musician, and was professional and dependable during the entire planning process. We can not recommend him enough! If you want live music for your ceremony, cocktail hour, or any event you may be having please look no further than Dave Tate!!!

and made it easy to coordinate our destination wedding.

It added SO much to have such quality live music on our special day. His voice is amazing and his guitar playing is perfect. Cannot recommend him highly enough! He is the best in the area by far. So many of our guests commented on what an amazing musician he was and how much they loved what he played and sang. Thank you for adding so much to our unforgettable day, Dave!!
