• Sept. 2, 2016Martyn played at our wedding at the Reid Rooms. Before the day he was in constant contact to make sure we agreed on what type of music to play from his repertoire and kindly learned a new piece of music to play for us during the signing of the register. On the day he was a pleasure to work with, arriving on time with no fuss. His mixture of classical and modern music was the perfect back-drop in our ceremony room and he was very adaptable in moving his keyboard to an outside location to ensure guests could still hear him during our outside reception drinks. We would definitely recommend Martyn to play at your wedding! Andrew & Nicola
