"Hiring Abigail to sing on our wedding day was the best decision! When we got in contact, it was so easy to communicate with her about exactly what we wanted on our day. From choosing our aisle song to the structure of the ceremony songs, we were so happy! After the ceremony, so many of our guests came up to us to compliment her singing during the drinks reception, I couldn't have imagined a better experience working with her and would recommend her to anyone!"

You were absolutely amazing, and we had so many of our guests talking about how talented and lovely you were! The music was so incredibly special to both of us and made the emotions of the day run even higher, it would not have been the same without you! Thank you so so much once again! "

Customer questions

What if my timings change after I've booked you?

I always try my best to be flexible to help ensure your event runs as smoothly as possible. If timings change slightly in the run up to the event just let me know.

Can you provide an iPod/DJ service before and between your sets?

Absolutely.

How much time do you need to set up?

I usually set up about 1.5 hours before the performance time. As soon as my PA is set up I can provide background music.

If I have a piano at my venue, are you happy to perform on that?

Yes, of course - as long as the piano is in working order and in tune, then I'm happy to play on it!

Can I pick the songs you play from the set list?

Yes and I also learn requests for wedding ceremonies.

Are you able to bring your own piano or keyboard?

Yes, I can provide all of my own equipment.

Can you learn song requests before the event?

Yes, as long as I'm given enough notice I can learn up to 4 songs for your event.
