"Nigel's piano playing was the perfect addition to our wedding day. He played for our ceremony, drinks reception and wedding breakfast. He created such a lovely atmosphere throughout the day. Nigel was super friendly and organised in the lead up to the wedding and happily learnt a few extra songs for us which weren't on his setlist. His version of Castle on the Hill by Ed Sheeran for the bridal procession was absolutely beautiful. Nigel is very experienced, enthusiastic and professional, and managed to keep playing seamlessly and improvise while I had a bit of a mishap before I was due to make my appearance up the aisle. Many of our guests said how brilliant Nigel's playing was. We'd definitely recommend him to others! Thank you so much, Nigel! :) x"

"We chose Vikki to play at my daughters wedding which was perfect in every way including Vikki's part in the whole day playing music before and during the ceremony. She has an excellent selection of music and will also try and accommodate requests that are not in her repetoire. The ceremony is the most important part of a wedding and with so much going on for anyone included in the wedding party its difficult to pay a great deal of attention to listening to the music, but all the guests commented about it and how it was very appropriate for the setting.

"Phil was a delight from the moment we first made contact, at very short notice, as our friend who was going to play was unable to. We had a number of exchanges by email and telephone and Phil could not have been more helpful and flexible from the outset. He arrived, as he said he would, to set up in good time in quite a small area in our house as we had to change plans due to the weather. Phil had a real grasp of the type of music for the occasion which he adapted for different parts of the evening from being in the background whilst we were having canapes to fabulous interactive entertainment when we began dancing as the evening moved on. He had also put together a great play list for whilst we were eating, paying attention to all our requests and specific likes. He took on the spot requests and all our guests loved it. Phil has a beautiful voice, he is a brilliant pianist but most of all he was part of the party not simply an entertainer. We will definitely be booking him for future occasions and we cannot thank him enough for his contribution to what turned out to be a party that surpassed our expectations. Many many thanks, Andrew and Ellen."

"If you love live music and particularly the Saxophone then Jan is your man! He played at our wedding a few weeks ago and I couldn’t speak highly enough of him. His set list had a huge array of songs spreading all genres and he performed them all to a really high standard. He set the tone perfectly for our wedding breakfast and then seamlessly turned this up as we transitioned into the night do. Thanks so much for being a part of our day, hopefully see you again in the future ?"

"We met Mark few weeks before our wedding. He was very friendly, nice and we immediately felt like we are in good hands. His skills are truly excellent. We have picked quite an unusual style of songs for our wedding ceremony and we were concerned we won't find anyone who would be suitable to meet our expectations. Mark not only met our expectations but he made the ceremony unforgettable! Walking down the aisle felt like in a fairytale. I would definitely recommend Mark to all couples for their wedding ceremony. Mark - HUGE THANK YOU for everything! Mr & Mrs Frost ;-)"

Thank you for your lovely feedback Viktoria. It was a lovely ceremony, and the medieval chapel in Hengrave Hall made it all the more atmospheric, perfect! Thank you for introducing me to that lovely piano arrangement of the Bridal March, I will be recommending it to future brides! I wish you and James a long and happy marriage, keep in touch x

"We are delighted to have Max open for us – he is a star in the making. We loved his energy as a performer and his new single demonstrates he can back that up with the songs too. Make sure you get to the venue early"

"Nigel played piano for our wedding ceremony and reception in March 2020 at Chicheley Hall. Throughout the whole planning process Nigel was fantastic, always happy to talk through ideas, give his professional advice and accomodate special requests. Even on the day there were some last minute changes to the set up of our ceremony due to the coronavirus situation, but to look at Nigel you'd have thought that it had always been planned that way. The music itself was amazing, beautifully played by Nigel and added a lovely relaxed and happy ambience to our day - many guests commented on it, including those watching the live stream video at home! Thank you so much Nigel!"

"It was an absolute pleasure having Chris play both the pipes/keyboard on our wedding day! From the initial booking and planning meetings, all the way through to the actual day, Chris went above and beyond to make sure every part of the music was perfect. We felt really listened to throughout the planning and on the actual day, everything ran perfectly. Nothing was too much trouble! We had so many comments on our reception music and everyone really enjoyed guessing where the popular music was from! Thank you again!"
