Fabulous from start to finish
Nigel was fabulous from start to finish! He was able to amalgamate my two favourite songs for a bridal entrance! Highly recommend!

Thanks Nigel, we had a great evening, and fortunately Chloe said YES!
My event was a private engagement proposal at a venue which required discretion to keep everything a top secret. I discussed at length with Nigel beforehand what my requirements were and he sent a huge list of songs he could play from memory which really helped me select a playlist to ensure the evening was fun yet intimate! We had discussions of some songs which were fundamental to the evening, such as the entrance/proposal song itself and Nigel was so accommodating to my needs, even when I changed and added songs over the coming weeks from his repertoire. There were some songs not listed which I wanted adding but luckily Nigel admitted he also knew how to play them. The evening itself ran beautifully, Nigel blended well with the surroundings (not easy to mix roses with a Ferrari F40) but he managed it. Songs were played brilliantly, and he even slipped in a couple of extra songs to suit the mood. I’d recommend asking him to play The interstellar theme by Hans Zimmer :) Thanks Nigel, we had a great evening, and fortunately Chloe said YES!

What a superb talent, mixed with being a true gentleman from start to finish!
I couldn’t recommend Nigel more! His repertoire was huge, and still offers the option of learning any song that we needed for our big day….to which he did this for us. Nigel learnt a song for our first dance, and made the moment extra special!!! Hearing a live pianist intimately playing the most beautiful of Melodie’s, in a moment that can never be repeated, just meant the world!!
Nigel offers such a great service for a wedding pianist, and we’d happily enjoy his talent at many other celebratory events in the future, he’s fantastic!!!

Nigel's piano playing was the perfect addition to our wedding day.
He played for our ceremony, drinks reception and wedding breakfast. He created such a lovely atmosphere throughout the day. Nigel was super friendly and organised in the lead up to the wedding and happily learnt a few extra songs for us which weren't on his setlist. His version of Castle on the Hill by Ed Sheeran for the bridal procession was absolutely beautiful.
Nigel is very experienced, enthusiastic and professional, and managed to keep playing seamlessly and improvise while I had a bit of a mishap before I was due to make my appearance up the aisle. Many of our guests said how brilliant Nigel's playing was. We'd definitely recommend him to others! Thank you so much, Nigel! :) x

We had so many compliments from our guests.
Nigel performed during our wedding ceremony and drinks reception in September and he was fantastic in every way. From the first contact, he was so easy to work with, fast to respond and nothing was too much trouble. Nigel is so talented and played everything we asked of him. We had so many compliments from our guests.

Well, what can we say.... AMAZING throughout!”
Nigel is a real professional, a real gentleman and a fabulous pianist. We are so glad that we booked you, the day simply wouldn't have been the same. As well as playing our selected songs so beautifully, we love how you read the room and played accordingly - for example when we came running back toward the venue dodging the rain having had some sunset photos taken, you played "Raindrops Keep Falling on my Head" - brilliant!
Thank you so much, your piano playing had us in tears (in a good way obviously!!). We won't hesitate to recommend you x

Nigel is an absolute legend!
This man can turn his hands to anything and any tune, even breaking into tune on our exit song when our song didn’t play through the system he very amazingly knowing what song it was broke into tune and gave us a glorious exit out of the church.
Nigel played all afternoon for us, for our welcome drinks and our wedding breakfast and he was incredible, reading the audience and playing the most beautiful selection of music.
We couldn’t recommend Nigel enough to anyone considering a lovely pianist at your wedding. Not only is Nigel a very talented pianist he is also a lovely gentleman who pre and during the wedding went above and beyond to help where he could and make everything such an easy booking process.
Nigel Thank you so much for making our day so special!

Nigel Played Beautifully
Our event took place on the 1st September 2023 at Horwood House. Nigel performed at the ceremony. The ceremony went off well and Nigel played beautifully for this special wedding ceremony. The ceremony would not have been the same without him as he added that special touch. Nigel was patient with us in deciding the choice of the songs and was very professional. Thank you Nigel, the bride and groom were so pleased and our guests really loved it and there was so much praise for how well you played.

Nigel did an amazing job!
Nigel did an amazing job playing the piano for our wedding day and helped make our day absolutely perfect! He played such a variety of music that our guests loved and even learnt to play the pokemon theme tune for our ceremony which was also amazing!
Thank you again Nigel

What a truly outstanding musician Nigel is..
I can’t thank Nigel enough for everything that he did for us on our wedding day!
From our initial phone call, Nigel’s friendliness, helpfulness and expertise immediately shone through and I knew that we were in very good hands. Nigel made the entire process smooth and stress free; providing so much advice and guidance along the way which really helped to shape our day.
Absolutely nothing was too much trouble for Nigel and he really did go the extra mile during the planning process to ensure everything was perfect; from advising us on song choices for parts of the day we weren’t sure about to learning specific versions of the songs that we had requested.
I couldn’t be more grateful for all of the time and effort Nigel put into our plans! The result? Truly beautiful music for every part of our wedding day. Listening to Nigel’s music as I walked down the aisle is a memory that will last for the rest of my life.
Nigel has an incredibly impressive repertoire of music that he can play and he kept our guests thoroughly entertained throughout the whole of our drinks reception. He created a genuinely wonderful atmosphere and so many people commented on how much they were enjoying his music! Lots of guests also commented on how lovely a person Nigel is; something I can wholeheartedly attest to!
Nigel’s piano set up is also absolutely stunning and really fit in with the décor of our venue. He even took the time to ask what colour theme we were using so he could provide matching flowers for his keyboard. We also asked Nigel to play a piano cover of our first dance and we were so thrilled that he was able to stay to do so. It was a magical moment and another memory that I shall cherish forever.
Nigel possesses an incredible talent and I wholeheartedly recommend that you put your trust in him for your own wedding day because I have absolutely no doubt that you will be as blown away as we were. My only wish now is that I could listen to Nigel all over again!

I would thoroughly recommend Nigel, he was friendly, professional and exceptionally talented at what he does.
Nigel played at our drinks reception and during our wedding breakfast at Shuttleworth House. He brought two pianos to enable him to play on the lawn outside for our drinks reception. The guests were warmly welcomed by his delightful playing. We absolutely loved having Nigel play at our wedding, as did our guests. Our guests were even singing along during the breakfast to his songs.
I would thoroughly recommend Nigel, he was friendly, professional and exceptionally talented at what he does. Thank you so much Nigel!

We would honestly recommend everyone book Nigel for their wedding!
We asked Nigel to play for our ceremony and during our wedding breakfast for our wedding at Huntsmill Farm, and we are so glad that we did! From the minute we asked him to be a part of our day we knew we had made the right decision. Nigel went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect for our wedding and we cannot thank him enough. Nigel made our day truly special, from start to finish and his piano playing was beautiful! Stunning! He specially assembled Coldplay's Fix You for me to walk down the aisle to, and every time I hear it I cry! t was just so beautiful.
Nigel added so much atmosphere to our wedding, the guests loved it and he really read the room and responded to this. At one point, he had the whole room singing along to his piano which was just a sight to behold from the top table! I cannot put into words how grateful we are to Nigel for being a part of our day and how special it was having him there, we only wish he had been able to play for longer! Nigel was such an important part of this for us and we would honestly recommend everyone book Nigel for their wedding! It truly made it extra special! Thank you!
