Tim is amazing! I put together a last minute back yard wedding in September in about 3 weeks. I found Tim in some research I was doing and after a short conversation I knew I had t...
o have him at our wedding.
With very little direction he put together an amazing ceremony and cocktail hour set. Including learning an old Gordon Lightfoot song for my father daughter dance. Tim got people dancing and all of my guests raved about him.
Our day would not have been as special without Tim. We can’t thank him enough. He’s extremely talented and I would highly recommend him for a wedding or party!
After extensive searching for just the right live music entertainment for our wedding, Tim Perry was our only top choice, and one of the best choices of our entire wedding planning...
experience.
We knew we had a wide yet specific range of music we wanted played live during our ceremony and cocktail hour. We really struggled with whether or not we should hire a full band or just one performer. This is where we knew Tim was the perfect fit. Tim is quite literally a one man band with an impressive talent of multitasking multiple instruments at once. It was mesmerizing watching his videos!
Once I reached out to Tim, my confidence grew stronger thanks to his outstanding professionalism and quick communication. We immediately got on the phone, nailed down some details, and we had a contract signed soon after. Leading up to the wedding, Tim was thorough and contacted us again to discuss venue details, etc. To no surprise at this point, Tim was early to set up for the reception and was such a calming yet exciting presence as the nerves kicked in leading up to the ceremony. He knocked it out of the park with every song. He provided the exact kind of environment we were looking for, which changed from a romantic ceremony to an exciting cocktail party.
His talent and experience was so obvious that even guests spoke to us about how great he was. He chatted with many of our guests, and it wasn’t until then did we find out we were lucky enough to get Tim to play for us on his own 40th birthday. We knew he was a great guy, but we sure didn’t think we’d find someone so selfless to make our wedding day feel so important on a special day of his own.
To top it all off, Tim left us an amazing note on the back of his set list, with his guitar pick taped to the back. It was seriously one of the greatest gestures that we didn’t notice until the next day. Months later it still brings me so much joy to think about. He’s a class act, and we are already searching for another reason to hire him.
We loved working with Tim for our wedding day! We had Tim for our ceremony and cocktail hour, he is so talented and it added the perfect touch to our wedding! Tim did a beautiful i...
nstrumental version of "Stand by Me" for my processional song and we did "Crazy Little Thing Called Love" with vocals for our recessional! We love music and Tim let us choose from hundreds of songs for our cocktail hour playlist! We were so happy with the acoustic vibe to our wedding!

ndly. The dinner music was perfect and afterwards he had everyone dancing and singing- which provided lots of good memories of our special night.

Everyone wants their wedding to be perfect😄 me and my new husband love acoustic guitar so I had an idea to surprise him. I went on gigmasters to find someone inexpensive to play d...
uring ceremony and dinner. Tim Perry was the only one out of many that reached out and worked with me on what I wanted and price. He always responded to me when I had questions. I was nervous because I have never meant this person and I was giving him money to play at my wedding, trust that he’s going to be there, the day you want it all perfect. I talked with Tim on the phone about week before wedding and arranged for my niece to meet him and show him where to be, because again it was a surprise for my new husband. I was getting ready heading to place of ceremony wondering if he had made it, little nervous. I arrived at barn where ceremony was and could hear him playing, and at this time I still hadn’t meant him. He was playing/singing was absolutely wonderful, everything I had hoped 😄 after ceremony was over We went over introduced ourselves and his personality was infectious! We invited him to stay and eat. All I can say is Tim Perry was amazing and my wedding was everything I wanted so thank you again Tim 😄

My husband and I weren’t planning on having any entertainment for our small wedding, but after we met Tim at my Mom’s wedding and saw him perform we were instantly sold. Wedding pl...
anning can be incredibly stressful, but out of all of my “vendors”, Tim was by far the most accommodating. I am incredibly picky and I over analyze every detail but Tim exceeded every expectation I had, and I am so thankful we had him at our reception. Whether a big reception or small, Tim is honestly perfect. He played music during dinner, and got the dance floor up and moving when it came time. My guests loved him so much they were chanting his name! I’m not one to leave reviews, but Tim is so deserving of one. I can’t recommend him enough, trust me!
