“Ryan and I just wanted to thank you for your exceptional work in preparation for and on our wedding day. The music you played during the ceremony was beautiful, as well as during the social hour and into dinner. It was so special to hear you play and we can't thank you enough for being part of our day. We heard throughout the evening, and have continued to hear since the wedding how amazing you were." ” - Becky & Ryan
“We couldn’t be happier with how our wedding ceremony and reception turned out and most of it is because of Michael Loonan. We went out on a limb a bit when we hired the same person for the ceremony and the reception but boy are we glad we did! His voice & work on the grand piano at our church was flawless and he even took the time to learn our “special song” for our big day. Furthermore, Michael took our vision of a piano bar atmosphere at the reception and pulled it off without a hitch. He had everyone’s toes a-tapping and even had a selected few up singing along. I can’t tell you how many people during and after the reception asked me who this great performer was and how we found him. Thank you, Michael, and to anyone considering him for any event, we would give you our full heart-felt recommendation.” - Dan & Julie Harris
“Hey Michael! It was such a treat getting to experience your musical talent and entertaining service for weddings! I do hope to work with you again & can completely see why Tairie w/Ceremonies by Starr is such a big fan of yours! You were very professional and fun!

“My wife and I were planning a joint 40th birthday party at the Embassy Suites Hotel in St. Paul. We were given Michael's name as a possibility for some background piano music during our cocktail hour. We went to listen to him play at Rudy's Redeye Grill in Rosemount. We fell in love with his playing and singing right away. We had a great time that night listening to him entertain the crowd and we knew we wanted him to be a part of our birthday party. He played at our event for about an hour and a half as guests arrived. He did an outstanding job of entertaining everyone. It was the perfect backdrop to a perfect evening. He played exactly what we had requested and added in some other great music. We couldn't have been more pleased with our choice to kick off our night. His variety of choices is amazing and we found he can pretty much play anything you want from mellow background piano music to classic sing along piano bar songs. Michael is easy to work with, very personable, and extremely talented. We can't wait to have Michael play again for us at our next party. Who knows? Maybe it will be our 41st birthday party since our 40th was such a blast!!!” - Patrick and Kris Andrus
