Having a violinist for our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour was one of the best decisions that we made, and Sweet Harmony made it SO easy. They were communicative, professional, and had a platform that made choosing songs and getting organized a breeze. It was affordable as far as wedding add-ons goes and classed up the wedding, our guests were all excited and impressed. Our violinist was incredibly talented and added an incredible flair. We chose a hip hop theme he nailed it (classy but also super fun and energetic). My only regret is that we were so busy that we didn't get to stop and truly appreciate it as much as we should have. If you're reading this review to thing about booking, stop here and go for it, you won't regret working with Sweet Harmony

Overall, we had a good experience with our DJ. He arrived on time, was professional throughout the evening, and kept our guests on the dance floor for most of the night. The music flowed well, and everyone seemed to have a great time. That said, I did spend a lot of time carefully selecting songs that were meaningful to us, and I was a little disappointed that many of those selections weren't played. Some of our requested songs were included, but I had hoped more of our playlist would be incorporated into the evening. The only other issue was that, just before our grand exit, he approached us to mention that he hadn't received enough food. We had paid for a vendor meal for him, so I wasn't sure what had happened, and it didn't feel like the best time to bring it up while we were in the middle of such a special moment. Despite those concerns, he was friendly, punctual, and our guests clearly enjoyed themselves. If having a lively dance floor is your top priority, he does a good job creating a fun atmosphere.

Tyler Preston is a seasoned country artist rooted in traditional country, blues, and Southern rock, with a classic sound that draws comparison to crossover artists such as Chris Stapleton, Charley Crockett, and Sturgill Simpson. This isn’t your run-of-the-mill variety act. Expect rich baritone vocals, twangin' guitars, thumpin' bass, and a setlist as wide as the western sky, with hits from icons like Zach Top, Cody Johnson, Eric Church, Brooks & Dunn, Dwight Yoakam, Steve Earle and more—all delivered with Preston's captivating stage presence and 1000-watt smile.

We hired Tyler Preston Country, Southern Rock, Americana for our wedding and he was fantastic! From our first call with his wife, the communication with both her and Tyler was thorough, clear, and timely - they answered all of our questions and made sure we felt prepared for the big day. On the wedding day, Tyler was a wonderful musician who played with energy and passion. His performance was a highlight of the night that our guests enjoyed. Tyler and his wife are also very kind people. We felt we got great value for the quality of their work. We highly recommend Tyler Preston for other weddings or events!
