Texas Sun Music did such an amazing job of bringing a magical touch to our wedding day! Mikaela was such a good communicator and made the planning process so smooth!! The team was very patient with our song choices and played my dream song of Enchanted while walking down the aisle!! Thank you for making our dreams come true!!
The team at Texas Sun are absolute legends and we loved working with them for our wedding! We had Mikaela and Jordan play for our ceremony, then the full band for cocktail hour and a performance with their original music during dinner. Our guests loved the intimate feel and were in awe of the band’s talent. As we look back, it’s truly one of our favorites parts of the day! They were communicative and helpful from the start, and such pros managing day-of logistical challenges. I honestly can’t wait to work with y’all again for a future party.
We chose Texas Sun to play our ceremony and welcome reception, as we had a large wedding with many out of state/country guests, and wanted to give them a real feel of live Texas music. We chose a trio of acoustic guitar,'steel guitar, and stand up bass. It was perfection! They used each song we asked (including an unusual choice for the bride entrance) and gave us the soundtrack to the ceremony of our dreams. Very easy to work with, communication was timely. Highly recommend!!
Any questions?
Thank y’all for bringing the magic of live music to our special day! We appreciate the time and effort you put into making our wedding and cocktail hour truly “us.”
It was great going through the planning process with Texas Sun Music! They worked with me on all the custom songs I asked for, and let me bounce ideas off of them the entire time planning! They played so beautifully on the big day it was such a treat to have them and really made the vibe wonderful.
My wife and I were so excited to have Texas Sun perform at our wedding! Mikaela and her team were so helpful in pulling off our big day and my wife and I couldn’t have been happier with the result. We wanted a band to keep the dance floor lively and they did just that! From planning to day-of, we fully recommend Texas Sun if you’re looking to a live band for any event you may have.
Texas Sun Music was more than I could’ve expected for live music for our happy hour at our wedding! They even added in a live performance for our first dance which made the moment even more special. I HIGHLY recommend this vendor for your live music needs for your special day. Will definitely be booking again for an event in the future.
We had the pleasure of having Texas Sun perform at our wedding, and they were absolutely phenomenal! They played during both our ceremony and cocktail hour, and the music couldn’t have been more perfect. They even learned one of my favorite songs for our processional, which set the most beautiful, memorable tone for our day. Their talent and professionalism were evident from start to finish, and they truly brought the atmosphere we were hoping for. We’re so grateful to have had them as part of our celebration and can’t recommend them enough to anyone looking for exceptional live music at their wedding!
With Texas Sun Music, you are in the best hands possible! Our ceremony and cocktail hour were both elevated by the group with Texas Sun, making what I had planned for over a year come true in the best way possible. Working with Mikaela was wonderful, as she was so helpful with exploring my ideas and helping me to choose songs that would work for every element of our ceremony. Our instrumental duo of a guitarist and pianist during the ceremony were met with stellar reviews from our guests and performed incredibly, even on our windy wedding day. Although we didn't get the time to make it into cocktail hour with Erica, I heard only good things from our musically inclined guests and was even surprised by a special signature in our guest book. I am so pleased to have had their talents for us on our wedding day, and I will never forget hearing my song as I walked down the aisle. Thank you to everyone at Texas Sun Music!

Wow! Just wow! The vocals on the pianist and strings on the guitar were flawless! I’m jealous my guests got a 30min prelude of their music and I totally wish I could have heard everything they played! They totally knocked it out of the park and were so harmonious and beautiful it brought tears to my eyes! Fantastic job guys!
Very communicative, on time, great music and people - would hire again!
Texas Sun was FANTASTIC! We hired Texas sun for our wedding ceremony and our Cocktail hour. Texas Sun was flawless during our wedding and they made the planning process super easy.
Mikaela and the team were so great! They played so well, played great music, and made our day even more special! Booking them was a great decision and I would book them for more events! They were also very helpful and understanding throughout the planning process! Loved them!
We loved Texas Sun Music! They made my ceremony dreams come true with the most beautiful music as my family, bridal party, and I walked down the aisle. Live music was something that we really wanted and I'm so glad we did it!! It truly elevated the ceremony and cocktail hour.
Texas Sun was super easy to work with, very professional, friendly, and helpful throughout our wedding planning process! They have great options for musicians depending on what style you're looking for. We ended up choosing a guitar and violin duo which was perfect for our hill country wedding. They have a wide selection of songs, and can even learn a custom song for just a small extra fee. I had always wanted to walk down the aisle to my favorite song, and they learned it and played it absolutely beautifully! We also had them play during our cocktail hour which was great. They were extremely accommodating, responsive, and helped make our wedding day amazing!
Texas Sun Music is the perfect, quintessential Austin wedding musical choice. I knew we wanted live music for our ceremony, but wanted to find something more authentic to us than a string quartet. Mikaela was immediately so friendly, easy to work with, and encouraging of our vision and so patient with all of my questions. We ended up getting piano and guitar for our ceremony and cocktail, performed by her and her amazing husband, and it was such a hit!! I loved that we got to have input on the song-list from her super long list, and we got to walk down the aisle to our favorite Bill Withers classic! All of our guests raved about how cool it was to have real Texas group play, and they are the nicest, most down to earth people. I wish we could have them at every event & forever be friends with them! Book Texas Sun Music, you wont regret it! <3
Great music!
Texas Sun Music was incredible! Erica did a beautiful job performing at our ceremony and cocktail hour. We heard rave reviews afterwards from everyone. Mikaela was easy to work with through the booking process. I'd highly recommend Texas Sun Music for your next event!
Texas Sun Music absolutely exceeded our expectations! The steady communication, even during their extremely busy fall season was much needed during wedding planning and our guitarist Chance was amazing! We had so many compliments on our live music from him. His professional performance fit our outdoor hill country fall wedding perfectly! I truly wouldn’t think twice about hiring TSM for your event. They make it all come together! 🤎
Mikaela with Texas Sun was a pleasure to work with leading up to our wedding. She listened to our requests, was quick to respond to questions, and helped us find an exceptional group of musicians. Our guitar, bass, and vocalist trio set the perfect atmosphere for our tiny wedding in the Texas hill country. Thank you Mikaela!
Working with Texas Sun was an amazing experience start to finish!! We loved the wedding package options and the musicians were incredible. Highly recommend Texas Sun for any event!
No question about it, Texas Sun absolutely crushed it! Our brunch wedding wouldn't have been the same without them, truly. It's been 2 months and I'm still getting comments from guests about how beautiful the music was. They really set the tone for the day, and captured our laid back style easily. Mikaela was so communicative and organized, and she really put my mind at ease about everything leading up to the event. Hands down, one of the best acoustic groups in town!
We loved loved loved the musician we booked! He sang great, looked great! He was so professional and on time! He sang each song beautifully and effortlessly. It was so beautiful! I could hear it over and over again! The booking and communication was a breeze! We were guided every step of the way from prelude to recessional songs. I wish you all could’ve been there!
Mikaela was absolutely fantastic helping us on short notice to find the perfect singer/guitarist for our big day, she was incredibly helpful and a diligent in her communication to keep things on track.
Chase who was the singer/guitarist was phenomenal, he created perfect ambiance & setting in the build up to our ceremony, the precessional & recessional walks, the happy hour afterwards, our first dance and a mini-dance party pre-dinner. We were able to handpick the 2 hour set list from his list of songs.
He was the big hit of the day, I would recommend him to everyone.
Thank you so so much Texas Sun Music, you helped create the most special day for us.
We LOVED having Texas Sun as part of our wedding. Mikaela was so easy to work with throughout our wedding planning process. We had an acoustic guitarist for our ceremony, cocktail hour, and part of our reception. Our guitarist was amazing, and it made our wedding day feel so special. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone wanting live music during their wedding!
Everything was just perfect! From booking, answering all my questions, customizing our day for us, I’m just so blown away! I highly recommend Texas Sun Music for any event you may have!
Texas Sun provided the perfect music and ambiance for our wedding in the Texas Hill Country! Mikaela and team were so prompt and professional in all of our communication, and the music set the stage so well for our big day. They were everything we had hoped for and then some! Thanks for helping make our wedding special.
I am so so glad I decided to use Texas Sun Music. Can’t say enough good things! The musician played as guests arrived, during the ceremony & during cocktail hour. It made the space feel cozier and elevated! Plus, he was incredibly talented!! Walking down the aisle to live music was such a dream! I event sent a few specific songs that he wasn’t familiar with but learned for my wedding. Mikaela, the owner, does all the communicating and scheduling. She is so kind & responds quickly! Easy to work with & made me feel confident about this addition to my wedding. If you’re considering live music, pls look into Texas Sun Music! It was one of my favorite things about the day.
Texas Sun did a phenomenal job of not only playing music, but curating the vibe of our wedding. Mikaela was fantastic to work with - she sent over a song list for us to choose from, but was also able to instruct our jazz trio based on what mood we wanted. Highly recommend Texas Sun for all your music needs!!!
100% recommend for any wedding music needs! We had a solo guitarist for our ceremony and cocktail hour, he set the perfect tone and mood for the rest of the night. Mikaela was beyond helpful throughout the entire process and gave great recs for song choices. Her response time was always immediate, even when we needed a last minute mic added on - I think she was responding to emails at 8pm one night to get back to us. Don’t hesitate to hire Texas Sun, they made the entire process so easy and stress free!
Mikaela was awesome throughout our entire planning process, and she provided thorough guidance and assistance while we were deciding what we wanted for our ceremony. We went with a harpist for our ceremony, and she was amazing! We got so many compliments.
We absolutely LOVED working with Texas Sun for our wedding in Dripping Springs. We hired the guitar duo for ceremony and cocktail hour and they completed the ambience with the perfect Texas folk tunes and made my T-Swift dreams come true walking down the aisle to Lover. Mikaela was great at communicating and provided great recommendations to fit our wedding. Would recommend them again again!
Texas Sun Music OMGEEE. I need y’all to play at gender reveal, baby shower, my future children, my dogs 1st bday, and everything in between. Mikaela and her team went above and beyond my expectations on my music for our wedding. It was so easy to book from the beginning of the process all the way to the wedding day. The communication was top notch and had zero issues or stress at my wedding.
The music sets the tone for the wedding and I will always remember how gorgeous, elegant, and graceful the singer was.
If you are on the edge of booking then don’t wait or think! Do it now.
Punctual, professional, and very warm group! Mikaela and our pianist were so awesome at my brother's wedding reception at Austin Country Club. They're great people, easy to work with, and really cater to what you want and the atmosphere of your event. Highly recommend!!!
AHH they were the best! so easy working with them. The musicians will play any song you give them and exceed expectations! So many people at my wedding gave compliments on their ceremony music! It made the ceremony so intimate and personal
Texas Sun was an absolute dream to work with during our wedding planning process. Communication was amazing and they provided help with any questions or concerns. Guests complimented the music throughout our ceremony and cocktail hour and they provided just a peaceful and loving ambience.
Texas Sun was absolutely perfect, they asked all of the questions we wouldn’t have thought of to make sure we had exactly the experience we wanted and the music was simply delightful! We couldn’t have asked for a better music experience for our wedding, just such a wonderful vendor
I was struggling to pick music for our wedding, but they called me and walked me through it. The music was perfect and the best personal touch to our outdoor wedding. Would highly recommend!
My wedding day was perfect, I am beyond impressed with Texas Sun Music, everything came out to beautiful. I got so many compliments about them. Beautiful voice and they did everything up to my expectations. I couldn't have asked for anything better. And they were SO easy to work with! Love them
Mikaela helped us book the perfect acoustic duo for our wedding! It was also only about 2 months out from our wedding that we decided we wanted to have this entertainment, but she set us up no problem. The duo was on time, professional and had a great setlist. We also asked them to learn two special songs to play that they performed excellently! Texas Sun Music was the best complement to our wedding and reception.
We celebrated our wedding at the Marriott in San Antonio Hill Country. I worked with Texas Sun Music to find the right guitarist for me. After listening to a few samples I picked my artist. Chase was exceptional. From cocktail hour, the ceremony, and dinner he had the audience amazed. His voice was exactly what I wanted. I would have never been able to find him without the help of Texas Sun Music. I highly recommend them for any event.
The entire experience with Texas Sun Music was easy, professional, and thorough. The communication to prepare for my event went flawlessly, and the musician that came did an incredible job setting the tone of our backyard wedding reception. Jordan has an incredible voice and range of music to entertain any audience and he put my guests at ease. Having live music really made our event a huge success.
Angelo was amazing, he shared that he got married at our venue just before the ceremony and it made it all extra special. It brought it all together with the piano during the ceremony and now I want to hear piano all day every day. Working with Mikaela was so smooth setting it all up and finding the right performer for us was great. Absolutely loved them.
Wonderful! The were so professional and did a great job!
When we were prioritizing budgets for our wedding we knew we couldn't hire out a whole band, but we still wanted live music to be woven through so we turned to Texas Sun Music and ended up hiring one of their artists (Katrina, the best!) to sing us down the aisle, during the cocktail hour, aswell as some of the specialty songs (father/daughter, bride/groom song) and it was the BEST decision ever. We were able to have the best of both worlds, Katrina was such a professional and Mikaela was really easy for our wedding planner/us to work with. I'd 100% book them, and rec them for all events!
Texas Sun Music, Mikaela was so helpful and professional. We had a last minute cancellation for our ceremony music and she was able to rescue the situation with an awesome duo. It was truly fabulous. Thank you so much.
Oh my gosh! Where to start.... First stop Mikaela is such a sweet soul. We actually wanted her to sing at our ceremony and were super sad to find out that she was already booked for our wedding reception (which after a couple of messages back and forth, she was the lead singer in the band that we already booked!!!!)
Mikaela ended up booking us with Katrina & her husband and her voice made everyone tear up while I walked down the aisle.
Best decision booking.
She went above and beyond on finding us a singer that fit our wedding vibe. SO many people came up to us after the ceremony & cocktail hour saying how beautiful
What can I say that hasn't already been said about working with Mikaela? She made our experience from beginning to end the best. She is the absolute sweetest to work with but most importantly made our day that much more special. We had the solo pianist and they were absolutely perfect - we even had guests asking about them after the ceremony! Thank you again for everything, Mikaela!!
Mikaela and her team were THE most accommodating and sweetest group ever! We had our hearts set on her to play our wedding but Covid had other plans and unfortunately when we had to postpone, she had already had our weekend booked. However, she knew what my vision was for music and searched around to find a perfect match and did not disappoint! I worked with her before i hired a wedding planner, and then she not only worked so well with me, but transitioned and transferred all the information over to my wedding planner so I didn’t have to and it was all seamless! She hired Katrina for my wedding and her voice made every bit of our ceremony, cocktail and dinner a DREAM! It was a whispy beautiful voice that set the tone so perfectly for my fairytale wedding! Thank you mikaela for your amazing time and efforts to put the cherry on top of my wedding, I truly appreciate it so very much!
Working with Texas Sun Music was a dream from beginning to end. We booked a solo pianist for our ceremony and cocktail hour. The music was absolutely lovely and set the mood perfectly! Mikaela was SO helpful with all the planning, had great suggestions for songs, and made the whole planning process quick and easy. I truly can't recommend them enough!!
We hired a duo guitarist and pianist for our daughters wedding. Ver intimate outdoor wedding. The music tied the whole ceremony and they played beautifully. We were able to pick out the the couples favorite songs. Our guests were amazed. Truly beautiful
Mikaela was the absolute best! Her response time was always quick, she was professional, and she gave great ideas! I would highly recommend booking your wedding music through her. Andrew played on our wedding day. He let us pick our favorite artists, and he was phenomenal at playing the guitar for our ceremony, cocktail hour, and dinner. Mikaela and Andrew made our wedding dreams come true! I couldn’t say enough great things! 🤍
