Why Tinman

We know how important your special day is so we take our job very seriously.  It is important to us that anyone that chooses us, knows that not only will they get an amazing show, they can trust us to be organised, professional and reliable.

Planning, planning and more planning – Your venue will of course provide you with a wedding planner, in the same way with Tinman you get your very own entertainment planner for your day.   Our sound engineer and compere Rick, has worked in the live events industry for over 20 years.  His military background means you get ‘military precision’, a real benefit when organising your day. Working closely with the venue, caterers and photographers, we can be flexible to any changes, but efficient and organised.  We write a detailed plan that fits in with your own timings, in advance of your wedding day, giving you real peace of mind that everything is taken care of, you can enjoy your evening knowing you are in safe hands.

Being professional means a lot to us.  Wowing your guests starts with a smartly dressed band even during our set up and sound checking. We don’t queue up at the bar, or for food and we make sure that we are on time! The simple things are often the most important. 
​
Experience is key.  Tinman is made up of a team of musicians with a great deal of experience musically, but also in delivering an organised event.  We have now played over 100 weddings, in a wide variety of venues large and small.  We have had our fair share of challenges (including an entire local area power cut), all of which have been expertly resolved, leaving our customers and their guests with beaming smiles.

Remembering your day.   Our photographs and sound bites from the night are made available to you and your wedding party through our website and social media, we are also more than happy getting some snaps from the stage for you. We also care a great deal about your feedback, most of all we love to hear about how much you enjoyed your day. You will see clearly that we really enjoy what we do, we’ll remember it for years to come as well!

Blog: What experience should you expect from your band......?

It perhaps sounds quite obvious, but we believe that a band that have been playing together for a long time will (15, 20 years) is a safe bet.  The band will often instinctively react to any changes, meaning they can read the audience and react easily (useful when your guests are enjoying a dance-off!).  We also think it is important to find a band that clearly enjoy what they do, if they visibly enjoy themselves (you can check out pictures/videos), there is a good chance that they love what they do... that is infectious!
