Feel-Good Live Music for Weddings

Hi, I’m Tom – a wedding singer, guitarist, and live looping artist based in Hertfordshire. I create full, layered live music using just my voice, guitar, and a looping setup inspired by Ed Sheeran. Whether you’re walking down the aisle, enjoying your wedding breakfast, or filling the dance floor, I bring a warm, feel-good atmosphere to every part of your day with music that feels personal and memorable.

What I Offer

I provide live music for weddings, with flexible packages that cover:

  • Ceremony music – live acoustic songs as guests arrive, during the aisle walk, signing of the register, and exit
  • Drinks receptions – relaxed, feel-good acoustic sets while you mingle and celebrate
  • Wedding breakfast – soft, atmospheric live music as you dine and make speeches
  • Evening sets – upbeat, high-energy looped performances to get your guests dancing

You can book me for a single part of your day or combine multiple sets to create a full-day live music experience.

🎵 Style & Sound

My style blends acoustic warmth with creative live looping to bring something fresh, engaging, and versatile to your wedding. I perform a mix of timeless classics, acoustic ballads, upbeat anthems, and modern favourites – arranged to suit the mood and moment.

Setlists are always bespoke to you. I’m happy to take requests in advance, including learning a special song or first dance. Whether you want emotional and intimate or upbeat and party-ready, I’ll shape the music around your taste and the atmosphere you want to create.

I’m also happy to travel further afield across the UK, subject to availability.

🎤 Equipment & Setup

I bring all of my own high-quality sound equipment, including a professional PA system suitable for both indoor and outdoor venues. My setup is compact and tidy, ideal for barns, manors, marquees, and I can easily move between areas throughout the day if needed.

Between sets, I can provide background playlists to keep the atmosphere flowing, and I’ll happily coordinate with your venue or planner to help things run smoothly.

Whether you’re planning an intimate ceremony, a lively evening party, or a full day of celebrations, I’d love to provide the live soundtrack. Let’s chat and make the music a real highlight of your big day.

Perfect addition to our day!

Thank you Tom for what can only be described as an epic performance at our wedding! The ideal blend of that classic indie sound we love, with party mashups that kept us all guessing what was coming next. Incredible loop pedal skills and vocal harmonies were off the chart – we had trouble getting people inside for the wedding breakfast! Perfect addition to our day, loved it!

Incredible Tom, thank you!

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... Incredible Tom, thank you!

FAQs
Find out a bit more from our FAQs

What is your most memorable wedding?

My own! Music has always been a huge part of my life, so naturally it played a big role on our wedding day. My wife walked down the aisle to Can’t Help Falling in Love, and our first dance was Your Song – two songs I now get asked to perform at other weddings, which always brings it full circle for me. Every time I play them, I’m reminded of that moment. It’s such a privilege to now help other couples create musical memories of their own.

Describe your style in 5 adjectives.

Warm, acoustic, versatile, authentic and feel-good.

What about your business are you most proud of?

Starting this successful wedding music business during the first year of my twin girls being born! Balancing new parenthood and building something I love wasn’t easy, but it’s been incredibly rewarding. I'm proud to be doing something meaningful for other people’s big moments while showing my girls that it’s possible to build a life around passion and purpose.

What is your No.1 wedding planning tip for couples?

So much of your day is about welcoming and celebrating with everyone else – make sure you carve out a moment that’s just for the two of you. It goes by so quickly, and having that little pause together can make the day feel even more special and grounded.

What is your favourite personal touch you have seen at a wedding?

A surprise song from one partner to the other – it’s such a heartfelt moment. Whether it’s something performed live or just a song with deep meaning played at the right time, it always catches people off guard (in the best way).

Describe your typical process with a couple.

Once you get in touch with an enquiry, I’ll arrange a quick phone call so we can chat through your day, your musical ideas, and how I might be able to help. If you'd like to go ahead, a deposit secures your date.

From there, we’ll stay in touch as your plans come together. We’ll have a more detailed conversation about the songs you'd like for the part of the day I’m performing – whether that’s the ceremony, drinks reception, wedding breakfast, or evening set.

Around 6 weeks before your wedding, I’ll be back in touch to confirm timings, logistics, and any final details to make sure everything runs smoothly.

Some couples want more contact, others prefer to keep it simple – I’m happy to chat as much as you need. My goal is to get the music feeling just right for you.

What makes a romantic first dance?

Whatever you want it to be. A first dance doesn’t have to be slow or traditional — it just has to feel right for you. My wife and I chose Your Song because we used to dance to it in the kitchen — it felt like us. My best friend and his wife danced to It Must Be Love by Madness, because they’d danced to it on New Year’s Eve the year before their wedding. The most romantic first dances are always the most personal.

What is your number one floor-filler?

Shut Up and Dance is my go-to! I often mash it up live with No Scrubs by TLC – it always surprises people in the best way and gets the dance floor buzzing. It’s upbeat, nostalgic, and impossible to resist.

Which band from the past would you most like to have been part of?

The Beatles. There’s just no topping their genius – the songwriting, the harmonies, the innovation... they were in a league of their own. To be part of that creative magic would be unreal.

What is the soundtrack to your life?

A mashup of dad life (think Teletubbies or Peppa Pig) meets indie anthems — No Scrubs one minute, Shut Up and Dance the next, then Bluey on repeat. It’s chaotic, but it grooves.
