"We were let down a week and a half before our wedding so we messaged north east serenade and they luckily were an available. We had many people come up to us and say how wonderful they were and in many videos we can see our guests singing along and loving it. We were taking pictures but from the parts I heard they were fantastic!!! Absolutely would recommend, they set the scene perfectly and had a fantastic repertoire! Only disappointment for us was that we couldn’t stand and listen to them more!! So so appreciate the last minute step in, thank you guys so much!! "

" ‘We came across Neil whilst searching for a singer/musician for our recent wedding. After watching some of his YouTube videos we decided he was the guy for us as his musical tastes were similar to ours. Contact and communication was superb and when it came to our first dance song we had something special in mind. Neil learned the particular track and believe me, he nailed it and it made our first dance so special. Neil played two 45 minutes sets and both were superb and had everyone in their feet dancing! I can’t recommend Neil highly enough. His professionalism and quality is awesome! Would I book him for future events? You can bet on it! Thank you Neil for helping us celebrate our special day with your talent. Gary and Elaine, October 2022 "

"What a truly outstanding musician Nigel is. I can’t thank Nigel enough for everything that he did for us on our wedding day! From our initial phone call, Nigel’s friendliness, helpfulness and expertise immediately shone through and I knew that we were in very good hands. Nigel made the entire process smooth and stress free; providing so much advice and guidance along the way which really helped to shape our day. Absolutely nothing was too much trouble for Nigel and he really did go the extra mile during the planning process to ensure everything was perfect; from advising us on song choices for parts of the day we weren’t sure about to learning specific versions of the songs that we had requested. I couldn’t be more grateful for all of the time and effort Nigel put into our plans! The result? Truly beautiful music for every part of our wedding day. Listening to Nigel’s music as I walked down the aisle is a memory that will last for the rest of my life. Nigel has an incredibly impressive repertoire of music that he can play and he kept our guests thoroughly entertained throughout the whole of our drinks reception. He created a genuinely wonderful atmosphere and so many people commented on how much they were enjoying his music! Lots of guests also commented on how lovely a person Nigel is; something I can wholeheartedly attest to! Nigel’s piano set up is also absolutely stunning and really fit in with the décor of our venue. He even took the time to ask what colour theme we were using so he could provide matching flowers for his keyboard. We also asked Nigel to play a piano cover of our first dance and we were so thrilled that he was able to stay to do so. It was a magical moment and another memory that I shall cherish forever. Nigel possesses an incredible talent and I wholeheartedly recommend that you put your trust in him for your own wedding day because I have absolutely no doubt that you will be as blown away as we were. My only wish now is that I could listen to Nigel all over again! "

"Mark, thank you so much for your superb playing at our wedding. It made the ceremony so special for us both. There are some good photo's on our photographers website - she caught all the organ action!"

Lovely comments Ben, yes the photographer really captured some good pictures of the organ. I have used one for my main caption on this site, showing my hands on the manuals of the organ! Good luck to you both for the future.

"We were lucky enough to have Mary and her musicians performing at our wedding. The good humour, the professionalism and above all Mary’s talent made our day magical. She’s got a beautiful voice and knows how to express her emotions through it. We were particularly pleased with the professionalism Rushowed."

"Hi Emily, I wanted to say a hugeeeeee thank you for Saturday, you sounded so beautiful. Everyone kept saying how amazing you were and Adam said you set up so fast and were super professional. So sorry I didn’t get a chance to meet you both for very long, it was such a hectic first couple of hours, especially as I had never met half of the guests. Thank you so much again."

"Sam was amazing in every way - he was accomodating with all song requests and played our ceremony and reception drinks beautifully! He was such a professional and entertaining performer. Even before we booked Sam, he accommodated every query I had - I including sending me a bespoke video of songs I wanted him to perform! Thank you so much Sam!"

Thanks, Louisa! I was really pleased to be part of such a lovely day - and the weather played nice!

"We booked Jack for our wedding, he sang at both the ceremony, during reception drinks and the evening reception. For our first dance he learnt a special arrangement of a particular song we wanted. The performance of this song really made our day, the lyrics were so important to us. The vocals and music coming into the service were perfect and all our guests commented on the fantastic live music. We provided Jack with a playlist and he learnt all the songs we requested. A professional service and wonderful performer. We highly recommend Jack."

"We cannot recommend Lizzie highly enough. Her music is absolutely beautiful and she was a wonderful addition to our wedding. When the ceremony doors opened and I heard our chosen song to walk down the aisle to, I was blown away by how incredible it sounded and bought tears to my eyes. Throughout the day, we received so many comments on how wonderful the music was and what a wide range of songs were played to suit everyone. Lizzie’s communication up to the wedding was also fantastic and she always answered emails quickly if we had any questions. She also made things extremely easy for us when we had to move our wedding because of Covid. Even the staff at our wedding venue complimented her music and said how lovely it was to have a harpist as part of the day. Thank you Lizzie!"

"Dan played at our wedding reception on Saturday 6th July 2019. He was Absolutely fantastic. We sent Dan a list of the songs we particularly liked for his play list. We were lucky to have a beautiful sunny day so Dan was able to set up outside where all the guests were enjoying the sun shine. We received so much feed back from our family and friends saying how fabulous he was. Not only has he an amazing voice but is also an absolutely lovely guy. I would highly recommend him without hesitation. "

"I met Simon at the Budock Vean Hotel, where he played for my wife and I and many of our friends at our annual get together (as well as providing easy listening music for all the hotels guests at dinner). Simon is extremely personable and a very talented musician. He added a wonderful aspect to our gathering; playing an extensive repertoire of jazz music - that we had had the chance to choose. I would recommend Simon to anyone who wants that extra special "something" at an event."

"Hi, we have just got back from our honeymoon and we wanted to thank you for all you did on our wedding day. A lot of guests mentioned how good you were and what a nice touch it was using the piano. As it really never gets played, and it/you sounded great. Thank you Katy and Gareth Daley "
