Thank you!
Gavin’s talent and professionalism made our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour perfect! He had an extensive portfolio of songs for us to choose from, and we were able to pick all our favourite songs for our ceremony and cocktail hour that he played. We couldn’t have asked for a better a better singer/musician for our wedding day!

Absolutely amazing
Having Gavin sing at our wedding was one of the best choices we made. He was so easy going, a pleasure to deal with and willing to go out of his way to make our day extra special, especially as I walked down the aisle.
We got so many compliments as his voice is outstanding and everyone was amazed at the many song selections he can play. I would highly recommend having him as part of your day.
Thank you so much Gavin!!!!

Gavin was amazing!
Gavin did an amazing job singing at our wedding. We hired him to perform through our ceremony, cocktail hour and dinner and we would’ve had him stay for the whole reception if we could. All of our guests were commenting how good he was. He made sure to play all of our favourites and it was a treat to have him there. He was so pleasant and professional, he was also understanding and flexible when we had to switch our dates a few times because of covid rules. Gavin made our big day even more special and I would highly recommend him for any event.

Highlight of our weekend!
Gavin was incredible from start to finish. His responsiveness and kindness was so refreshing. Gavin played an intimate concert for my best friend’s bachelorette. He had us laughing, crying, dancing and singing. It was so incredible the way his tailored playlist, music, voice and all around talent enhanced the love and friendship in the room. Thank you Gavin for being the soundtrack of our weekend! Hope we can work together again soon!

Wedding in Elora
Gavin and Bryce were absolutely phenomenal at our wedding in Elora! All our guests enjoyed them and enjoyed all the songs they played. At times we couldn't even believe it was live, that's how beautiful it was! They were able to sing our first dance song and Father-Daughter dance song, which made it incredibly special for us. They are able to personalize and tailor to whatever your vision is of the event. Highly professional and great communication. We would absolutely recommend them to perform at your event!
