"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.

"“Alan played for us during our marriage ceremony and at our drinks reception afterwards. The music was wonderful, our guests thoroughly enjoyed it and we were absolutely delighted. Alan was so professional and I would highly recommend him.” Very best wishes, Helen and Paul"

"The concert closed with After Ives (1993) which ends with an outrageously rambunctious and “perverse homage” to J P Sousa, whom Ives apparently detested, quoting his famous The Stars and Stripes Forever on the piano with Chopinesque melodic interjections and Lisztian extravagance, all masterfully and very wittily handled by Lewis Kingsley Peart."

"Sarah recently played at my son's wedding (1st August) - and I didn't get chance to say a huge thank you. It was absolutely lovely. Whilst we were waiting for the beautiful bride, Sarah's playing created a wonderful and very emotional atmosphere - playing music individually chosen and special to my son and his new wife. Afterwards, it was just lovely to look around the room during the Wedding breakfast whilst listening to the beautiful background piano music - it wouldn't have been the same without this, the icing on the cake! Thank you, Sarah."

"Angelina recently played at our wedding. She was really easy to communicate with prior to the wedding and was accommodating with our choice of songs for the ceremony and reception drinks. On the day she was really professional and worked with the venue to ensure everything ran smoothly. All our guests commented on the amazing live music and how nice Angelina was. I would 100% recommend Angelina. "

"Vikki, as we say in East Yorkshire, is a 'good 'un'. Apart from being a superb musician on both cello and electric piano, she is a very pleasant, professional person and made us feel very much at ease in the lead up to her performance. Vikki performed during what was probably the noisiest part of her event so full marks to her for playing in 'testing' circumstances, she received a standing ovation from her audience and this was richly deserved. I would not hesitate to recommend Vikki and she will certainly be very welcome back at Kilpin anytime."

"I cant leave a good enough review for Andrew. He played at our wedding yesterday. Oh my life, he was amazing. He gave us a HUGE list of songs to choose from and he even played songs that werent on his list for us. He played the grand piano at our venue and then played on his own portable piano outside for our drinks reception. My only regret is that we didnt have him for longer. I should have booked him for our wedding breakfast as well. All of our guests said how amazing he was. Andrew thank you so much. "

"5-star Google Review: Absolutely fantastic! At a loss for words really over how amazing Nigel is! He not only learnt new songs for our big day but got the whole wedding party singing along to Bohemian Rhapsody during our drinks reception! Would highly recommend him! Thank you so much for making our wedding so magical! He knows lots of Star Wars songs! Yay! The Imperial March was fantastic!"

"The experience on the day was excellent all-round. Laura was punctual, professional and very pleasant to deal with. Her choice of music was exactly what was wanted and her playing was great to listen to. The nearest thing to a negative I can say is that I was constantly being approached by my guests to tell me how enjoyable Laura's playing was. Very grateful to her for making the event very much better than it would otherwise have been."

"We needed an organist to play at our wedding at fairly short notice at our wedding in Northamptonshire. Anthony was fantastic and even learned what was a relatively obscure piece that we had wanted to be played as my wife entered the church with her father. He played our other hymns beautifully and then played Widor's Toccata as we left the church. Anthony was a pleasure to deal with in the lead-up to the wedding - he was responsive, flexible, helpful and made great suggestions. I would have no hesitation in recommending Anthony, and indeed my wife's sister has now asked if Anthony is free to play at her wedding as well."

"We hired Tom to play the piano at my daughters Christening party and would definately hire him again and have already recommended him to friends and family. Tom turned up on time and played beautifully. Everyone commented on how great he was and how nice it was to have live piano music at the party. Tom was friendly and a really nice guy and was also great talking with the kids and took some time to teach them some piano basics when he really didn’t have to. Highly recommend."
