About

Relaxed, feel-good live acoustic music for your ceremony, drinks reception, and first dance.

I’m Tom – a wedding singer and acoustic guitarist who creates feel-good live music using just my voice, guitar, and live looping. I build full songs live, layering guitar, vocals, harmonies and rhythm to create a rich sound from one performer.

Whether you want relaxed ceremony music, an upbeat set to start the evening, or both, I’ll shape everything around your day so it feels natural and personal.

Music for Your Wedding Day

I offer three key parts of the day to choose from:

  • Ceremony – Live music as your guests arrive, for your entrance, signing of the register, and exit

  • Drinks Reception – Relaxed, feel-good live music while your guests mingle

  • First Dance & Early Evening – Your first dance performed live, followed by an upbeat set to start the evening

Pricing is simple:

  • One part of the day (£500)

  • Two parts of the day (£875)

Most couples choose a combination of ceremony and drinks reception.

Setup

I provide a professional, compact setup that works seamlessly for both indoor and outdoor weddings.

Everything is handled for you on the day, and I’m always happy to coordinate with your venue or planner to help things run smoothly.

Great musican

We had Tom perform at our wedding he was very professional and relatable when we first met him. Tom performed Eric Clapton Wonderful Tonight which was a new song for him to perform, his version was amazing. Our guests and the venue staff were really impressed with Tom. We would highly recommend Tom, you will not be disappointed.

Incredible singer

Tom was perfect for our wedding and is such an amazing performer. Do not hesitate to book Tom for your event or wedding day! He performed for our first dance and continued to perform an amazing party set.

Thank you Tom!

We found Tom through local advertising and boy were we impressed! Tom performed a 90 minute set during our wedding drinks reception at Milling Barn, Buntingford. He brought an amazing energy to the day and our guests were blown away by him, we had so many compliments from guests and our suppliers. Tom learnt Taylor Swift songs especially for us as I’m a huge fan and absolutely delivered. I would highly recommend booking Tom for more than one part of your day, in hindsight we wish we’d done this as we were pulled away for photographs etc and missed most of his set. We decided to go see him at Tewinbury Farm for a post wedding date night and what a talent he has! Incredible Tom, thank you! 🥰
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to make your big decisions easier.
