Very talented guitarist

What a talented man! Thank you so much Tom for adding that extra special touch to our wedding ceremony and drinks reception. The communication with Tom was excellent and his skills on the guitar are incredible. Tom learnt the song that we wanted to exit our ceremony specially for us as it was not in his repertoire and played it incredibly well ( Sucker by Jonas brothers) and the wedding progression song was played beautifully ( Can’t help falling in love by Elvis) I didn’t have much of a chance to chat to Tom as I was so busy but we want to thank you for doing a wonderful job especially in that heat! I wouldn’t hesitate to use Tom again and highly recommend him.
