"Thank you for playing the organ so brilliantly at our wedding on 24 September this year. Everyone said how well you played the hymns and the entry and recessional tunes were a triumph. Thank you so much."

Some fantastic musical choices - I loved playing these. It was a memorable ceremony. No more excuses needed than to pull out all the stops for a wedding ceremony!

"Gareth's an absolute gem! We were in desperate need to find an organist weeks before our wedding, as our previous organist had to cancel. I came across Gareth's details and luckily he was available. He came to visit us at my family home where my mum insisted on giving him some of her home made Limoncello :) and even after that he manage to wow us with his music skills, a true talent! Thank you!"

"My wife Lorraine and I celebrated our 20th wedding anniversary with a vow renewal ceremony at our small parish church. The organ was in need of maintenance so he brought his own keyboard and speaker system. We chose a range of music from contemporary melody to classical, and Mark fully demonstrated his versatility in his excellent performance, simulating piano, orchestral and organ as appropriate to great effect. He accompanied the hymn singing in a very accomplished way without dominating or following. He took a great effort to establish what we wanted in advance enabling him to fully complement what was for us and our guests a very intimate and unforgettable occasion. Mark proved to be very friendly and obliging and I would have no hesitation in recommending his services for any similar event."

"I was very pleased with everything on the day. Your approach to the whole process was reassuring and gave me confidence that the music was something I need not worry about. Many of those present expressed how the organ had been important and lent much to the service. Thank you."

"Robert really made our party swing, he played exactly what we had asked for, which was great. He has a lovely easy going personality. He arrived on time and set himself up with complete ease and no fuss. Our guests commented on how good his playing was. Would definitely recommend Robert and book him again."

"This Concert was absolutely amazing. Gareth was entertaining and informative whilst happy to answer questions between each piece and involve the audience. He is so very skilful in what he does and appears to have a vast repertoire to suit all tastes and genres. I am going to keenly look out for Gareth's other Performances and will definitely be recommending him to all I speak to. I even purchased one of his CDs and it is fabulous!"

"Des kindly played the piano at our Friendship Dinners. Des is a fantastic Pianist and his playing really added to the ambiance of the evening. Des was a warm and friendly person and we would not hesitate to ask Des to play at events in the future. Thank you Des."

"I don't know the Revd. David Morris but having known Des at my own church and listened to him play in church and privately I would endorse everything Revd. Morris has said. From his playing ability over all styles to his quiet dependable honest character. Highly recommended."

"Mark, you did an absolutely fantastic job playing for our wedding last weekend. Everybody was talking about how beautiful your playing was. And we LOVED how you rocked up our exit song for us! You did everything we asked for and we really appreciate you learning new pieces especially for our wedding. We had great communication from you and you're a pleasant and friendly person to work with. 10/10! Recommend to anybody!"

Thank you so much Abi! As a wedding pianist it was just perfect for me - a lovely venue and team, the best piano that money can buy, and a wonderful couple and family. Your exit music Queen's 'Crazy Little Thing Called Love' was a first - what great exit music! Thanks again for choosing me, best of luck for the future, keep in touch. Mark
