Review by Marisa N.

WeddingReviewed on May 31, 2022From Long Beach, CA

Our wedding was this weekend & when I tell you Tyler was a hit, I mean he was a SMASHING SUCCESS!! Our guests raved about him & I continue to get texts from friends & family about how he was such a cool/unique touch. He was so kind, fun, & accommodating in the planning process. On the day of he made everything run smoothly. He emcee’d like a boss, killed it on keyboard for our guests pre-ceremony/processional, & slayed the sax for our cocktail hour/first dance. It was a dream. And the dance floor??? I was PUMPED!! So were my guests! Tyler kept the party going & nobody (especially me) wanted it to end. Book him. Book him now. Book him yesterday! You won’t regret it.

WOW, I have no words to describe how amazing Tyler Varnell is! From the beginning, he was so friendly, communicative and easy to work with. We knew we were in good hands. Then seeing him perform at our wedding...he truly blew our minds and exceeded all expectations! From ceremony, to cocktail hour, to the reception, he customized each portion and kept the energy going. His surprise sax performances on the dance floor pumped up our guests and made everyone have the time of their lives. He WAS the party! Our wedding wouldn't have been the same without Tyler and we are so grateful to have found him. You will not regret having him be a part of your big day or next event!

Tyler is an absolute wedding/event experience. We couldn't have picked a better vendor to play at our wedding. Not only is he an amazing musician, but he was able to become the star of the show and really rock the dance floor. He was even able to learn a few songs that were special to my husband and I to play at our wedding. Our guests were in literal awe at the talent and showmanship of Tyler- this guy brought it! If you're not hiring him for your wedding, its a total missed opportunity. Did I also mention his communication was always prompt, positive, and top notch?
