Ellen Blane Wedding & Events Musician
"We had Ellen sing at our December wedding and she was absolutely incredible. She performed bridal entrance song perfectly, the signing of the register, and then entertained our guests during photos and the drinks reception. Her voice is beautiful and created such a warm, magical atmosphere, especially for a winter wedding. So many of our guests commented on how amazing she was. Ellen was professional, friendly, and a joy to work with from start to finish. We couldn’t recommend her highly enough."

Dean Cargill - Pianist
"As a surprise for my fiancé I asked Dean to tweak a piece of music and make it more ‘bridal’ as a surprise as I walked down the aisle. He couldn’t have done it any better! Lots of compliments from my guests. I would definitely recommend and use again if the situation arose.
Thanks Dean."

Rjl
"We hired Rhys for our wedding on Saturday 7th March. Right from the start Rhys was brilliant, I requested quite a few songs that he didn't initially know and gave him a huge job in learning and putting everything together. Rhys sent me updates, snippets of the songs and communicated right up to the morning of our day ☺️
Rhys sang whilst we signed our marriage documents and then during our canapes - he was amazing. We loved it so much that our drinks reception turned into one of the most special moments where all of our guests gathered and sang along with Rhys which was magical. Rhys was polite, friendly and stayed after for food, chatting to our guests and joining in with our wedding! I honestly couldn't have asked for a better talent - it was perfect for us! For years we had been set on having a guitarist at our special day and choosing Rhys was the best decision! We would recommend him to anyone looking for a beautiful voice at any event! Thank you so much Rhys ❤️"

Rick Vale
"If you ever get the chance to hear pianist Rick Vale play, take it. My wife and I first heard him on a cruise ship, and from the moment he sat down at the piano and launched into his boogie-woogie style, we were hooked. We made it a point to attend every session he played for the rest of the cruise.
I’m from Mississippi and grew up on blues and the fiery piano sound of Jerry Lee Lewis, so that style means a lot to me. When Rick graciously agreed to play a few Jerry Lee Lewis favorites, it absolutely made my trip. He captured the spirit and energy of that music while still making it completely his own.
Beyond his incredible talent at the keyboard, Rick has a natural way with the crowd. He’s engaging, funny, and creates an atmosphere that’s pure fun. Every performance felt less like a show and more like a great musical gathering.
I’ve kept up with where Rick is playing ever since, hoping our paths cross again someday just so I can hear him play live one more time. He’s not just a great pianist—he’s the kind of performer who makes an evening unforgettable."
