Alice Quirke27 May 2026

Booked for Wedding

Andrew played a two hour set at the start of our wedding celebration, while people were arriving and having drinks and canapes. He did an absolutely perfect job of setting the tone of the day, providing a brilliant sound track to kick off a day of celebrations. He matched the atmosphere of the venue with his music choices and is clearly a very highly skilled pianist, earning many complements from our guests.

Dan was absolutely wonderful! He played beautifully for 3 hours on my wedding day during the ceremony and the following drinks reception. He incorporated songs I asked for from his extensive repertoire, and he even learned 2 songs that I wanted during the ceremony. He was excellent at correspondence and generally a delight to deal with, I couldn't recommend him more!
