"Booking Nigel to play at our wedding was one of the best decisions we made. He learnt to play new songs that we had requested in such a short turnaround. He also made such a special song to us more special by playing it so beautifully for my walk down the aisle. Thank you so much" (At Woughton House Hotel)"

"I booked Sam two years in advance for my wedding — and from the moment we first spoke to the moment she played the final note on my big day, she was nothing short of incredible. Throughout the entire wedding planning journey, Sam stayed in regular contact, checking in, sharing ideas, and always being so warm and supportive. She wasn’t just a supplier; she became someone I genuinely looked forward to hearing from. Every time she sent over a video of her playing a new piece for us, I cried — every single time. Her music wasn’t just beautiful, it was emotional, personal, and filled with heart. It reminded me of what we were working toward and kept me so excited in the build-up to the day. On the wedding day itself, Sam was absolutely magical. The atmosphere she created with her piano was nothing short of breathtaking. I can’t even describe how it felt walking down the aisle to her playing — it was like something from a movie. She brought such elegance, emotion, and joy to every moment. What touched me the most was how she made it feel so personal — like I had a best friend sitting at the piano, playing just for me. Her presence was calming, her professionalism outstanding, and her talent beyond words. She truly understood what the day meant to me and poured that into her performance. If you’re considering booking Sam — do it, and do it early! She is a once-in-a-lifetime kind of artist. I will never forget the role she played in our wedding. She helped make it the most magical day of my life. Thank you, Sam, from the bottom of my heart. You are a treasure."

"I found Vikki at Last Minute Musicians through a random internet search. What can I say? I'm so glad I found this site and Vikki. She was prompt with her reply and professional in all our emails and our meetings. She took on all the music we needed her to play on the piano and also arranged a special piece of music I had chosen which she played beautifully for us on her cello. Her piano playing is lovely and this along with the cello solo added so much to our wedding service. Thank you Vikki for your help in preparing for, and playing at, our wedding and for your wonderful music skills."

"Over the Christmas period we hired Elliot for a special dinner party we were hosting at our home. It's an annual event and each year we try to do something a little different. Our evening with Elliot proved to be the best we had ever done. Elliot is a very talented singer and piano player. So first and foremost he is great to listen to and to have live music in your home is a real treat. However the thing that made this evening so special was his personality, my guests really liked him. He was able to take request after request, on the night and just play whatever we asked for. So the evening turned into a big sing along , with favourites for our guests and lots of special moments re-lived. I can't recommend Elliot enough as an all round entertainer. We have booked him again. "

"We wanted to say a huge thank you to Finn for being part of our wedding day. Finn played during our wedding breakfast and set the perfect ambience for our day. He asked what type of music we would like playing and was able to accommodate everything. He even spent time chatting to our guests taking requests and played some really eclectic songs! Our guests have been raving about the music. Thanks again Finn!"

"Bradley played prior to our wedding ceremony at the OXO2 to welcome our guests and to entertain with upbeat jazz during our drinks reception. He really helped to create a wonderful atmosphere on our special day and so many guests commented on his repertoire. We can't recommend Bradley highly enough. He was super organised, always promptly responding to emails and calls. He liaised with the venue on our behalf and planned ahead very throughly. Bradley helped us source a beautiful baby grand digital piano which added a real touch of class to the venue. He was also able to tailor his repertoire to some of our favourites which meant so much on the day. Bradley exceeded our expectations and he is a really nice gentleman. "

"Alex played at our church wedding in September and absolutely made our day. We chose the music for the day and Alex but together a video showcasing the music we had chosen to make sure we were happy with it. On the day it was magical right from the guests arriving to when we left the church. We couldn't have asked for more. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend Alex - live music made it a day to remember. "

"Nigel played at our wedding on the 9th December 2023 and I can honestly say when I look back out our day the music was one of the biggest highlights for me. From our very first contact right up until the big day Nigel’s communication was amazing, always prompt to reply and nothing was too much bother. Six weeks before our wedding we actually changed our wedding venue and I called Nigel in such a panic as I was stressed but he was so great at calming me down and reassuring me that everything would be okay, and he was right, it was just perfect. Everybody that came to the wedding complimented the music and I myself started crying the moment my song started playing as I was about to walk down the aisle, it sounded perfect. There was a specific part of the song that I wanted to enter to and Nigel managed to time it perfectly without compromising on the quality of the playing. In addition, I was sad that I didn’t get to hear any of the music played before my arrival but I didn’t need to fear, Nigel was kind enough to send me a beautifully put together set list of the music that was performed, this is something that I will treasure. Nigel also recorded many of the songs on his GoPro and promptly sent these recordings to me. To watch my guests arriving, seeing my husband nervous before I arrive and watching myself walk down the aisle was truly magical and I will look back on this videos for years to come. So to summarise, I would highly recommend booking Nigel for your wedding, you will not regret it. "

"We hired them to help celebrate my 50th birthday party. Great communication in the run up to the event, huge repertoire of songs to choose from. They even learnt a new song for my event. They were very engaging and the feedback from friends and family about them was very positive. Highly recommend and would definitely book them again."
