Thomas J Wilman acoustic - Indie folk wedding singer

Thomas has a very empathetic and gentle nature about him which means he takes all of the stress out of dealing with a wedding supplier. He’s kind, helpful and supportive and more than willing to try different things and learn new songs if needed.But the real two reasons we chose Thomas were:- He has a beautiful voice- He has a brilliant taste in music which matched oursFrom folk and classics of the 1960s and 1970s to modern alternative / indie singer-songwriter he sings with great passion and energy. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a great acoustic musician to complement their wedding or event.Thanks so much again Thomas!

I was best man at a wedding where Tom was the afternoon reception entertainment. Planning was easy, despite the demands of a groom whose musical sensibility spans Mumford & Sons to Barenaked Ladies. On a very hot day, Tom’s self-sufficiency made set-up a cinch and the performance was perfect – he’s nailed the very fine art of entertaining without upstaging. For all of the above, but also for his exquisite line in Whitney Houston covers, Tom’s a firm recommendation.

We had the best wedding day and Tom was such an important part of it. He was absolutely fantastic and exceeded our already high expectations. We can’t put into words how much we appreciated the effort he put into learning all of the songs we love - music is so important to us and Tom brought our musical dreams to life on the day. So many of our guests commented on how much they loved the music.No question was too much hassle and Tom made us feel like our wedding was really special to him. He was great at communicating and attentive to all of our needs and requirements.If you like great music, book Thomas J Wilman for your wedding!

Tom’s music was one of the highlights of our wedding day! Tom was so easy to get along with and very willing to include as many of our favourite songs for the day as he could. So many of our guests asked where we’d found him and said how amazing he was.We have such incredibly happy memories of listening to Tom while spending one of the happiest days of our lives with our wonderful friends and family. We’re always looking for an excuse to host such an event again and re-book Tom!Thank you for making the day so magical.

Tom played at our wedding at the end of June and we and our guests were so impressed! His covers are unique and complimented all of the original versions of the songs so well. He is a very talanted guitarist and singer and his music was a part of our wedding that we will always look back on fondly.Tom is more than just a great singer and guitarist though. From the first enquiry, to our contact after the wedding, Tom has been incredibly friendly and an absolute pleasure to speak with. He's also been very organised and learnt a couple of special requests for us.We would highly reccomend Tom for anyone looking for some live music and we hope we can find an excuse to book him again in the future!

Tom was the musician at my sister's wedding. It was such a special day, and his music was a cherry on top. He went out of his way to give the bride and groom a set list that was personal to them, but it fit his own unique singing style. The result was a charming, seamless backdrop to the drinks reception. Not to mention he was a pleasure to work with on the day. He arrived for set up as myself and the bridal party had to charge out the door (late to the church) and he managed to get everything set up, and ready for action without us having to do a thing! Any bride, groom, or wedding guest would be lucky to have Tom be a part of their celebrations. I hope to be lucky enough to hire him for my own event one day.

Thomas came to sing at our wedding in Manchester and he made the church service so memorable, with guests praising his wonderful style and exceptional taste in music. Honestly, our wedding wouldn't have been the same without Thomas and I would recommend his musical services to anyone and everyone. Thank you so much Thomas for being a joy to work with and for making our day so special and personal!Scarlett and John

Firstly, we would summarise our experience with Tom as perfect from start to finish. We’ve highlighted the reasons below but if you want a top line summary then there you go.Pre-weddingWe found Tom on hitched, having trawled through countless websites trying to find the right singer. Music was a very important part of our day so we needed it to fit with what our vision for the day was.We were amazed at the depth of Tom’s repertoire, with an excellent selection of songs spanning multiple decades (50s through to 2020s). His package also offers some off repertoire songs too, so we actually found it hard to whittle it down if anything, with the selection available.Once we contacted Tom, he was quick to respond, offering a Zoom meeting or in person if we were close by. We discussed the logistics of the day and he was kind enough to help us with our ceremony structure (as he too had a humanist ceremony). This was incredibly helpful as we were constructing our own ceremony with a family member as a celebrant, so his help was reassuring and appreciated greatly. Shortly after our discussion, Tom sent us a spreadsheet to select our songs and requests, so that he could start to draw together a set list. He was accommodating with some challenging requests (walking down the aisle to Lovin’ you by Minnie Ripperton) and completely surpassed our expectations. You could tell throughout that Tom really wanted to get these right for us.In the weeks prior to the wedding, Tom showed a great deal of diligence, making sure that we had thought about certain logistical steps to make our woodland ceremony a success. There were certain things Tom brought to our attention that we wouldn’t have otherwise thought about. He was proactive in checking through the ceremony schedule to get timings right which was great in busy build up to the wedding. One less thing to worry about.On the dayWe chose Tom’s ceremony and reception package, from when guests took their seats through to the wedding feast. His music within the setting of our woodland wedding was simply beautiful. It set the tone for our day perfectly and made it feel even more special and personal, as he sang our favourite songs that he’d learnt for us. His voice is gorgeous and everyone was captivated as he played. After the ceremony, he played around 90mins throughout our canapé reception, creating an atmosphere that felt like a summer festival in the 70s!We can’t express how happy we were to have Tom play at our wedding. We knew he’d be totally perfect but he blew us away with his incredible voice, kindness and care. He embraced our vision and brought it to life and the music was a huge part of our day and a fantastic lasting memory.Thank you Tom!Paige and Adam
