Such a lovely voice.

I had so many nice comments from my guests for the entertainment. Paul’s singing is so nice. He was very accommodating with his song choices and it was so nice to have him sing for us on the day. Really regret not being there as much as I wanted to, in order to enjoy the singing!

Amazing musician & highly professional!

If you are thinking of booking Paul for your wedding, do it, you won’t be disappointed! He performed at our wedding and was absolutely brilliant. In the run up to the event the communication was excellent always responding to emails promptly and answering all of our questions and providing advice. On the day he arrived well in advance of the start time. All of our guests loved the music and asked where we found him. We would recommend Paul to anyone!
