    I am SO happy I found Tyler on social media. He was definitely one of the highlights of my entire wedding, and all my guests loved him! He really does know how to work a crowd with his amazing saxophone ranging from gen z to the older folks. Tyler led my whole party from cocktail hour to the reception room, and he played his versions of my favorite edm songs for the bridal party entrances as well! I can’t wait to throw another event like a baby shower so that I can have him play the piano!

    We absolutely loved having Tyler as our saxophonist and MC for our wedding! He was incredible and truly such an important part of our day. He kept the energy high throughout cocktail hour and dinner, and his transitions as an MC were seamless. He did an amazing job keeping us on track without ever making anything feel rushed or forced. His song choices were perfect and had everyone up and dancing all night. I can't imagine having our wedding without Tyler and 10000% recommend!!

    Tyler was HANDS DOWN the best decision we made for our wedding! He was so professional, friendly, attentive, and communicative. If you are debating whether or not to book Tyler for your wedding, I’ll give you one less decision to make- YES! Our wedding was 8 months ago and our friends and family still talk about how great he was! BEST MUSIC EVER!

    We can’t say enough about how incredible Tyler is — truly a one-in-a-million person and professional. From the very beginning, he brought unmatched energy, kindness, excitement, and professionalism all balanced with so much patience and genuine care. He embraced all of our crazy ideas and endless questions, helping us work through every logistical detail to make the night uniquely us. The music, the flow, the vibe — everything was perfect thanks to Tyler's expertise. He knew exactly how to read the room and keep the energy high while making every moment feel personal and effortless. Our guests are still talking about him weeks later. If you’re lucky enough to have the chance to work with him, don’t hesitate — he’ll make your wedding unforgettable.
