Clean Comedian for Sunburst Hospitality Corporation

"We had a great time and thanks to Larry Weaver our meeting was a huge success. In talking with everyone at the different social events, the common comment was that having a comedian was a great way to start off a conference. The people I talked to thought Larry was very professional. I thought so, too! He did a fabulous job and our CFO was spot on when he chose Larry. We will definitely use him again. Thanks for the laughs."

"John was awesome! He: was responsive, kept in communication with us several times before the gala, was on time for the dress rehearsal as requested, worked well with the emcee, made up great jokes ahead of time and on the fly based on what was happening at the time (shows me he was paying attention), had great energy during his performance, and was well dressed (dark suit at the black tie optional event). We had great feedback from gala attendees (thought he was funny). Jokes were appropriate, relevant and clean. It was a pleasure working with John on this gala and we thank him and you for your willingness to help with this element of entertainment."

"Larry was a fantastic speaker who would be warmly welcomed again! The Southwest Tennessee School Nutrition managers in attendance enjoyed the humor, teamwork tips, and personalized message that he shared, especially made even more relevant because Larry’s mother’s was a school nutrition employee for many years. Not only did he present well, he was flexible, accommodating, and very easy to work with prior to our event. Communication was always prompt, professional, and friendly. Booking was a breeze and the promotional materials provided were easy to utilize for participants. Larry’s positive personality and presentation were a great way to kick off our school year!"
