"We were so delighted to have Mark play at our Wedding Breakfast at Westminster College Cambridge on Saturday 1 September 2018. He has such talent and is so professional and easy to work with. We cannot recommend him enough. Many of our guests asked for his details and he got many rounds of applause. Thank you so very much Mark, you made our day very special. xx"

Thank you so much Helen, it was such a pleasure to play for you both at Westminster College in September. Everything just came together perfectly on the day - wonderful venue, piano and couple! It was like playing at a concert with lots of applause too. Keep in touch, and I look forward to seeing you both in the future. x

"Just wanted to send you a short note to say A BIG THANK YOU for being such a big part of the day. The weekend was totally amazing from start to finish. We have received so many compliments from guests - about the venue, the location, the music, the service, the food and drinks, the decorations - in fact everything! We have so many special memories that will stay with us a lifetime. The piano was such a lovely touch - especially the bride reveal on the staircase - something we’ll always cherish. Thanks you again for playing such a special part. All the very best from, Derek and Helen Emily and Connor"

"We used Mark to play the organ at our wedding and he was truly spectacular. Not only did he play the organ but he also played the piano and used his piano to play our entrance music via MP3. He ensured that every single piece of music we loved was played and in the best way. There is nothing Mark is not happy to offer and he truly cares about doing the best for your big day. We were so lucky to have found him to help make our day special. If you need someone for your day, you need to use Mark. He makes everything so easy and perfect for you. Get booking! "

Scarlet, thank you for your lovely remarks. I thoroughly enjoyed playing for your Christmas Wedding in Cambridge, the organ was lovely at the Leys School, enabling me to achieve a lovely cathedral sound during the carols making it even more festive! Thank you for choosing me for your big day. Mark (December 2015)

"Dear Gareth Giles Thank you for the wonderful organ playing at the Funeral the other day. You played with such sensitivity and didn't let the hymns drag at all. Beautiful music"

"Mark was amazing, we contacted him with only a few weeks to go, and gave him a bunch of requests for him to play organ and piano solo plus accompanying cello. He had to practice some pieces he’d not come across before, and he totally delivered. He was a wealth of advice of what would work, but equally he listened to what we wanted and went out of his way to make sure we got the music that worked for us. Very accommodating and very accomplished, very glad to have had him there for our big day and to have made his acquaintance. Wish him all the best of luck in future."

"We asked Des to play the organ at our wedding on 2nd September at Cambray Baptist Church. From start to finish he was absolutely amazing and an utter professional. He didn't bat an eyelid when we asked him to play complex and unusual music and seemed to know all the old fashioned hymns we requested. When the bride was late it didn't phase him and he played continually for over 30 minutes. He mastered the Sound of Music Wedding Processional and the Can Can as well as lots of hymns. He turned up for the rehearsal and on the day was absolutely wonderful. He is extraordinarily talented and a wonderful unflappable musician. We thoroughly recommend Des - he will not let you down! "

"Gareth is so talented at playing the piano, and organ. You don't want to do anything else but sit and listen to him. The movement on the keyboard is so quick, you wonder how he gets the right tunes he plays. Will definitely be booking him again for next year. 10/10 jean"

"Gareth was incredibly helpful - he found the music we wanted and met us a few months before the wedding at the Church to go through things. He played the organ beautifully during the wedding service. We would not hesitate to recommend him."
