"We recently had Nigel play at our wedding at Woughton House. We decided to book Nigel to play all day (Ceremony, Drinks Reception & Wedding breakfast) and were so glad that we did. Nigel added a perfect ambiance to the entire day, he played a fantastic variety of music and even learnt a cover of Time After Time for us. I would highly recommend Nigel for any wedding or party and would not hesitate to book him again."

"Nigel is phenomenal. We firstly had the privilege of listening to him play for my sisters wedding. He was the first supplier I booked for the wedding as I wanted to secure him ASAP. Booking with him with seamless and so exciting. He has such a wealth of knowledge and extensive repertoire. I even threw in a new request for my aisle song, which Nigel executed flawlessly! We had several moments during the drinks reception we caught the songs we had requested which was very moving. A lovely full circle moment when both couples had a photo with Nigel as well. I cannot recommend Nigel enough, we’d book him for any event possible! Highly recommend Nigel and his beautiful pianos!"

"Emily played the cello beautifully at our wedding. Her performance was really soulful and made an incredibly special day even more special. We can't recommend her enough and are looking forward to hearing her play again."

"Nigel was an excellent addition to our wedding. He played during our ceremony, drinks reception and wedding breakfast adding a lovely touch to each for a nice ambiance. Received lots of comments from guests about his excellent music which was varied. Would throughly recommend if looking to add some live background music during your day!"

Thank you so much for booking me to perform at your wedding and for such a lovely review. It was such a pleasure. You two looked amazing, and Chicheley Hall was such a wonderful setting.

"John went above and beyond our expectations and helped to make our day so special, even staying later than planned and allowing us to use his equipment for our speeches, the amount of people that approached us and said how fantastic having john perform during our wedding breakfast was startling, would 100% recommend that you consider using john for any upcoming events you may have. Thank you again Andrew and Caroline"

"What a truly fabulous man and service, from the enquiry to the event itself, John was courteous, sensitive and accommodating helping us celebrate our beautiful dad's life in a way he would most certainly have wanted. Nothing was too much trouble, he had every possible song we asked for across 7 decades and his lovely voice was an unexpected bonus. We cannot recommend John enough and will most certainly book him, hopefully for a more joyous occasion. Thanks John you are a blessing x""

"Gavin performed for mums birthday. He was very flexible and managed to provide something for everyone, sixties and seventies classics, some modern day party songs and even some Irish favourites. It was a fab night and I thoroughly recommend Gavin for your party. He brought along disco lights to enhance the mood and was a fabulous singer."

"What can I say! Amazing performance for my dinner party. I booked her to perform for an hour during welcome drinks and the first course and she did not disappoint. I asked for a mixture of classics from the playlist including Motown and chart music and a few others thrown in and all were played so well it was brilliant. My friends were blown away by the brilliant performance, we even had a rendition of Happy Birthday which was great and such a lovely touch. I booked for an hour and the price was extremely reasonable, on reflection I wish I booked for longer as my friends and I absolutely loved her and enjoyed her performance, I have had so many messages telling me how nice it was and how much they enjoyed it. A true professional, talented and so friendly too, thanks for being part of my birthday celebrations!"

"Bradley played a great set at my husband David's 40th in Hertfordshire. His piano playing was superb. We especially loved the cabaret section where David's sister sang a song from Eurovision with Bradley at the piano. Superb atmosphere, thank you Bradley!"

"wedding & reception music October 2019 I am so pleased that I found Emily. She was friendly and professional from our first contact and gave me complete confidence. Emily not only played her own compositions and traditional cello pieces but also created an arrangement for a specific track at my request, as a surprise for my husband. In addition, Emily prepared a further arrangement at our request, to play alongside our 17 year old son, who accompanied her on the ukulele. Emily and George were only able to run through this piece a couple of times on the day, directly before guests began to arrive and it was wonderful to hear them master it together so quickly. Our guests burst into spontaneous applause after they had played this piece for the recessional! I cannot recommend Emily highly enough! Lisa S "

"Wow, wow, wow!! I booked Samantha for our wedding after finding her on this website and following her on social media. I wanted a singer/guitarist for during the ceremony and drinks reception and her style of music and the tone of her voice made her the ideal choice. Communication with her prior to the day was superb and she agreed to learn a number of songs for our ceremony. Even though she was not feeling very well on the day, she was professional and performed brilliantly with charisma and a positive attitude. Everyone has commented how beautiful she sang and how perfect a choice she was. Definitely book Samantha for your wedding day, you will not be disappointed. I just need to find an excuse to book her again!!! Thanks Samantha! "
