"I honestly don't know where to start with writing this review! We booked Sam for our wedding day at Chycara on the 25th of May 2019. Sarah at the last minute musicians was very thorough and made the whole process of booking Sam very easy and enjoyable. Great contact up until the wedding day and even after! Sam - WOW! I don't even know what to say. His voice is outstanding. We had a rustic/barn wedding and we love acoustic music and Sam was absolutely perfect for this. ALL of my guests complemented Sam and his performance's. Sam was so friendly, interacted with the guests and made our day that little bit more special. I am overwhelmed with how much he fitted in with our big day and i will remember and cherish it forever! Thank you Sarah and thank you Sam!! Rosie & Sam Barnes "

"Mark played our wedding on 8th December 2018. Everyone commented to us on how amazing the "piano guy" was. Mark was so professional from the day we booked him and I cant express how amazing he is. He played the music as our guests arrived, as I walked down the aisle, throughout our reception drinks and during the wedding breakfast and nothing was too much trouble for him. I would book Mark again in a heartbeat, he really made our day extra special! "

"We just wanted to email to say thank you to Jon for playing our wedding at Bury Lodge. He was absolutely amazing and really made our wedding perfect. Jon was great playing the ceremony and our reception drinks - my one regret is that we didn't book him for the wedding breakfast as well."

"Henry was a superstar, he really made the party, especially since it was a bit of a stand up cocktail type party and the guests needed a little waking up. He is also extremely flexible, was able to play many requests and encouraged people to sing along. I would book him again in a heartbeat. Oliver Needs - Surrey"

"Mark was brilliant from the moment we contacted him right the way through to the end of the event. We could not have chosen a better pianist for our wedding! He was so catering towards the songs we wanted to be played, he also went above and beyond to learn a particular bollywood song that we wanted. Given that we were a covid bride and groom, Mark constantly reassured our stresses and supported us throughout. When some things did not run on time, Mark used his initiative and played such lovely music to “fill the gaps”. Not only is Mark an amazing pianist but a very kindhearted man too! We received so many compliments about the Bollywood pieces that Mark played during our canapes, everyone absolutely loved him. Mark you are so talented! Thank you so much for playing at our wedding, you made the day that much more special. We are so happy you were a part of it!"

"We had the pleasure of Chris playing at our wedding at Horsley Towers and could not recommend him enough. He was super responsive on email and extremely helpful with specific songs we wanted played. Could not have asked for a more talented and professional pianist."

"Mark, thank you so much for playing the organ at Christchurch for Amy's wedding on Saturday 5th November. The music sounded amazing from start to finish - so many of our guests commented on how brilliant you were. We loved your use of the keyboard for Amy's entrance 'A Thousand Years' which sounded so lovely on the piano. You certainly were the right man for the job, giving us help and advice in choosing the music, then visiting us at the church to see the organ and discuss the final musical details with us. Your music set the tone and atmosphere for the whole day. We have no hesitation in recommending you to anyone looking for a wedding musician, we now know why you are so highly rated on Last Minute Musicians! Christchurch, Swindon. 5th November 2016"

It was lovely to come to Christchurch in Swindon to play for Amy and Alistairs wedding. I enjoyed playing the organ there, and using my keyboard alongside the main organ to play piano music and MP3 recordings of Amy's deceased father Gary singing them down the isle for their Exit music. It was very special, what a fantastic voice Gary had! Thanks for choising me to play for you.

"Quite possibly 100% one of the best decisions we made, booking Nigel for our wedding at Huntsmill Farm. Nigel is super talented with the most welcoming personality. He has the most amazing repertoire; there does not seem to be anything he cannot play or will put his hand too!! Nigel played for our wedding ceremony, drinks reception and wedding breakfast and OMG what an edition he was!!! I say edition, he totally made those elements of our wedding as amazing as they were. His talent is second to none, the ambience he brings with it is just magical and was the perfect choice for our day. We literally cannot recommend Nigel enough; he will absolutely make your day as magical and as special as you want it to be. Everyone at our wedding spoke very highly of Nigel and loved his music – they absolutely loved him as much as we did. We would 150,000% recommend Nigel. We promise you will not be disappointed, quite the opposite, you will be glad to have him as part of your day."

"Alex is not only a fantastic pianist but also a lovely guy. He made our wedding day so special, and I cannot recommend him enough. We worked out a playlist together of songs that we wanted, and he did not hesitate to learn some slightly more eclectic choices... Like video game theme songs. Listening to him play was just delightful. All our guests told us how wonderful the music was. He was professional, smart, and just took our wedding day to a whole new level. He was happy to keep the secret of my walking down the aisle song from my husband to be and jazzed up our leaving the ceremony song to keep it in line with the style we wanted. We could not have asked for more. The more people that get to hear Alex play the better. We feel lucky to have had the honour of him playing at our wedding. Thank you so much Alex, there aren't enough words to get across how much we appreciate what you did for us on our special day."

Reply by Keyboard player for gigs, shows and exams
Thank you so much for your kind words Penelope, and congratulations again on your wedding day! I hope you and your guests enjoyed the music. Alex

"I would like to say a massive thank you to George for a beautiful gift for my husband to be's 30th birthday. We was meant to get married on 10th April with George being our wedding singer which we have had to postpone and changed the date which we have thankfully been able to keep George as our singer (phew) I asked George a few weeks a go to record my fiancé's favourite song and a song that reminds him of me and boy did George deliver. This song isn't in the charts but on a new album by John Newman and Georges version I love more than John's. His voice is beautiful and George is a lovely man. If anybody is looking for a singer look no further. We can't wait to have you as a part of our wedding George. Thank you again from the bottom of my heart. Xxx"

"Will played at my wife’s 40th birthday. He played two sets, both of nearly an hour long each full of rock and pop from the 60s through to the 00s. It really added something to the event and everyone had a fantastic time! Cheers Will"

"Jamie was incredible from start to finish. He was so accommodating even when I completely changed my mind about the music, he was happy to learn our new choices (including AC/DC’s Thunderstruck on piano, which was no easy feat!). Jamie also learnt a song to accompany my friend in her singing which he did so beautifully and He played throughout our wedding day, creating such a lovely atmosphere, and even moved his setup twice so he could perform in different locations nothing was too much trouble. Communication was easy and faultless from start to finish. We’re so happy we chose Jamie; his music added something truly special to our day."
