Thank you for your lovely comments Joanna. I really enjoyed playing for your wedding, especially your entrance music 'I'm Kissing You' on the organ. I usually play it on the piano - but it really worked for the organ too. I'm really pleased that it was 'perfect' for you, that is my goal for every wedding! Good luck to you both.

"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

"Thank you so so much for Saturday! You were incredible. I don’t know if you knew this but when you played before the ceremony, you played a Bollywood tune that was Kyles dads favourite song, and it really meant a lot to him! So thank you so so much Mark, it was perfect x "

"Good selection of music but it was generally too loud. This could have been because the hall was longer side to side than the width where your combo was playing. Maybe a better sound evaluation ( not sure what the proper term is ) opposite where you are actually playing would enable a better volume appreciation for the assembled guests."

"Mark performed for my father’s funeral late in 2017. Not only did he take care of the practical arrangements (bringing extra equipment, making sure all was in order for the day) but his playing - it transcends you to another world. As he played “O my Father” the room lifted and it touched the hearts of every person in that room. My father loved the Carpenters and at the end he played a piece and very subtly included “Sing a Song” it was beautiful and sad. It is difficult to imagine having a positive experience at a funeral, especially at your own father’s. But Mark truly made the day fit for a king. No less deserved. We were so in awe of the music that he was booked for another family funeral a couple of months later. Can not recommend enough. "

Thank you for giving me such a fantastic review Charlotte. It really was a lovely Christmas Wedding at Hengrave, our collaboration for your Jurassic Park Theme worked a treat, I'm so pleased that everyone loved the music! The Carol Service in the chapel was indeed epic, I've never heard such hearty singing in there - wonderful stuff!!

"Des recently played the piano at our wedding reception. His performance was exceptional and loved by all our guests who arrived to hear a lively choice of music. Des' personality is amazing. His attention to matching the music to the occasion added a beautiful touch to our wedding. We would not hesitate to recommend Des to play at any function."
