June Brides and Grooms - This is your month!

Wow, what a year it has been already!

Wedding season is in full swing, and I have played music at gorgeous venues including Wynyard Hall, Northside Farm, Ellingham Hall, Lartington Hall, The Croft and more.

Brides and Grooms of June, this is your month! Eek!

I am looking forward to playing music this June for my couples at stunning venues including Wynyard Hall, Bowburn Hall and Middleton Lodge and more!

I absolutely love playing music for my couples, and it doesn’t just begin there. One of my favourite things is catching up with you in the months before your special day to discuss all things music, and go through your timings. This is when it’s getting real, and so exciting! Once we have discussed your music and personalised requests too, I begin work on your music and setlist to ensure your music on your day is as unique as you are! I love getting to know you all and your music tastes, and discussing the running other of your day - so exciting to visualise it all! I love to also feature music we have discussed on my Instagram stories to give you a sample of how your music is going to sound. Be sure to follow me there as I update this with music inspo regularly!

I have also added a full updated setlist to my website too so be sure to take a look - as I am always learning music for each couple this is always ever growing, so if there’s a song you don’t see on there that you want to know if I can play, just ask!

Wishing you all a fabulous June!

Should I hire a pianist for my wedding day?

Yes! (Of course I would say that) but I really do believe live piano music can play such an important part in any celebration, especially the most important day of your life!

Here are a few reasons:

Create Unique Memories

Can you remember hearing a song you’ve not heard for ages on the radio and being transported back to Ibiza or that first date? That’s the power of music it unlocks memories. Piano music is so befitting a wedding that any song can sound like it was always meant for your walk down the asle, I love making any song wedding appropriate from Fleetwood Mac to Oasis, Avici to Harry Styles!

Thank you so much for playing for us on our wedding day. We both felt it added a really special touch and all of our guests commented on how much they loved listening to your music. I’m so pleased you were able to play the Fleetwood Mac song for me and your suggestion of playing it during the register signing was perfect. It really made me feel that my grandad was there with us.
— Rebecca and Adam, Ellingham Hall, 2022

Personalisation

I love working with you the bride and groom to create a set list that is as unique are you as a couple are, requests are always encouraged and can be specifically placed at key moments or dotted throughout your wedding day.

No song is out of bounds

I can convert almost any song into a wedding ready song, this year alone I’ve played Avici, Fleetwood Mac, Sam Fender, Beyoncé, Leonard Skynard, Oasis and so many more.

I have over 10 years experience

I’ve been a wedding pianist for many years and this has given me a huge amount of knowledge and experience, and I love talking about weddings, so if you have any questions even if they are not music related please do get in touch.
