"Tim was fantastic from my very first enquiry to him. He was extremely responsive, friendly and accommodating. We had to move our wedding once due to COVID and he was completely understanding. He was totally open to all my song choices and learned new arrangements according to the songs I had asked for. During the welcome drinks he played a range of songs which catered for all our guests and everyone commented on how fantastic he was and what an amazing atmosphere he created with his music. I would definitely recommend Tim to anyone looking for a musician at their wedding and I wouldn’t hesitate to contact him again for any other event I organise!"

"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. "

"Stephen is a brilliant wedding pianist. Very talented and professional. He helped us select the pieces for our wedding and played them beautifully. Highly recommended."

"I must say Chris was absolutely brilliant! He went over and above for us. He came to see the venue with us before the date to check out acoustics and settings. He was faultless with our playlist, which in turn made our day truly perfect. We can not thank him enough!"

"Timothy played songs from his repertoire as well as a special request for our first dance. It was magical to dance in the Jardin de Tuilieries and have him play our song, it made it extra special and memorable. We couldn't have found a more talented artist who is very professional as well. Merci! "

"I had seen Nigel many months earlier at a wedding fair and immediatley decided that he was the one I wanted to play at our event. I just loved his repertoire and it resonated with me. Like many wedding couples, we had to change the date for our wedding more than once and we were so thrilled that Nigel was very easy to get hold of and responded quickly to our requests. Especially with a venue change and then having the complexity of a church service as well as a reception. It was so sweet of Nigel to do a little Facebook video and dedicate a tune for us on what would have been our wedding day and he even put on a wonderful coloured jacket to add extra pizzazz. Such a wonderful and personal touch. To help us choose, Nigel gave us a spreadsheet of his tunes and it made it very easy to tick boxes to choose our favourites. Also, as we were having a church service, Nigel especially learned a hymn that my husband particularly liked. Despite restrictions on the setting up time at the church, Nigel put on a fantastic performance. Beautiful flowers on his piano and a colour themed jacket too. Although we had restrictions on numbers of people, Nigel really made this a special and intimate event. At the reception, we were extremely happy with the wonderful background music Nigel played... it just seemed so effortless as he rolled from one tune to another. We had so many compliments on his playing and professionalism both during and after the event that we felt proud and privilidged to have him as our musician. We cannot recommend Nigel highly enough and we consider him to be the best event pianist in Milton Keynes. We will most definitly consider booking him again should we have a celebration in the future."

"We had an amazing experience working with Rob when we needed a drummer at short notice. Not only is he a fantastic, intuitive drummer, he is also the nicest, most humble guy you could ever wish to share a rehearsal space with. He also went above and beyond, joining in the spirit of the event (an album launch show at the 100 Club) and overcoming any logistical obstacles with ease. First class"

"Kit was extremely well received by our membership (and by me). I have already had requests for his return. He appeared solo, and played a good mixture of well known jazz standards, rock and roll, and ballads, and there was singing along going on! Some of our members now want to hear him with his band as well. A very good evening event for us."

Thanks Mike. A lovely friendly audience who made me feel very welcome and were a pleasure to entertain. I'm delighted that the evening was a success and I look forward to playing for you again! - KP.

"Nigel played for our wedding reception, during the drinks and canapé reception and the wedding breakfast. Nigel was incredible! More than we could have ever wished for. As soon as we arrived in our wedding car (DB6), Nigel started playing Bond music. He also played loads of great songs (including Disney) which got a lot of our guests singing and dancing. We had our gorgeous little cousin with us and Nigel played Baby Shark just for him, tho lots of guests also enjoyed it and did the dance moves! We've had so many complements about Nigel and his amazing skills. He really did add so much to our special day. We 100% recommend Nigel!"
