Clean Comedian for Reinhart Foodservice

"Thanks again to Larry Weaver for kicking off our employee meeting. The event was a success and we appreciate him helping to get everyone in the right frame of mind for a Saturday morning. All enjoyed it."

Division President, Corporate Kick Off Meeting
Comedian for International Special Events Society

"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."

Vice President, ISES Trinity Awards Gala
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."

"Thank you to Larry Weaver for speaking at Synergy 2025! His session was well-received. All logistics and professional interactions with him were excellent. From clear pre-show communication and high-quality promotional materials to on-time arrival and evident professionalism throughout, every aspect of the engagement was handled smoothly and efficiently."

Member Experience Manager, SYNERGY Conference
Comedian for Bojangles'

"Thanks for following up. As you know, we had an incredible entertainer last year, and it would be very difficult for anyone to follow him. From only seeing Matt via videos, I can honestly say I was a little apprehensive. The big day arrived and Matt came by early to make sure everything was in place. He seemed very nice, but would our group like him?!! We've never had anyone like this before. The event starts, people sit down for dinner, and just as they are finishing up the meal, Matt is introduced. He comes up on stage and my heart is pounding in my chest. Matt gets to the microphone, introduces himself, tells his first joke, andà The crowd erupts into laughter. Immediately I feel the biggest weight lift from my shoulders! Matt continues his set as the crowd is mesmerized by him. He involves the whole audience on a few jokes, he customizes jokes just for our group, and overall, he really connects with our audience. They laugh. They applaud. They wipe tears of laughter. They genuinely enjoy his performance. It's three weeks later, and yesterday someone stopped me in the hall to tell me how much they enjoyed our banquet entertainment. Larry, you and your team have done it again. You do all the work, I get all the credit - it's a wonderful relationship! Thank you for making me look good, and for helping provide such a memorable evening for our employees."
