James was an absolutely amazing addition to our wedding day. He played the piano throughout the ceremony and drinks reception and then DJ'd in the evening. Every element was brilliant! For the ceremony I wanted a specific part of a song to walk down the aisle to, which James performed brilliantly. He also learnt a song for us from a Canadian band that he hadn't heard before and it was amazing! Loads of our guests commented on the piano playing throughout the drinks reception. He was also a brilliant DJ in the evening, keeping the tunes coming and the dance floor full.

We first saw James play at my best friend's wedding. It was so beautiful and we wished we could have the same at ours. We assumed the piano was at the venue and didn't realise James brings it to your venue! So to our delight we booked him for our own. James is not only super talented but a really genuine and friendly guy. He learned songs he had never played before, specifically one for my father to walk me down the isle. All the guests said what an amazing touch it was to have James play as they arrive and I quote "not a dry eye in the room". I can't recommend highly enough.
