Customer questions
What if my timings change after I've booked you?
As long as the actual day of your event doesn’t change suddenly, I can be flexible with this up to the day before your ceremony or event. I understand that things sometimes happen beyond anyone’s control, so feel free to get in touch should you need to, and let me know.
Can you provide an iPod/DJ service before and between your sets?
Yes, I believe that I could arrange this, although this has never been necessary before as I am never usually far away from the piano! Any breaks that I take as part of any potential contract will be no longer than 10 minutes long.
How much time do you need to set up?
Ideally, I need half an hour to set up. It can be done a lot more quickly, but in the event I need to set up equipment, I normally need to check sound levels and make sure that it is all works correctly and safely.
If I have a piano at my venue, are you happy to perform on that?
Yes by all means, as it saves me having to bring my own equipment! I would only ask that the piano in question is tuned and in excellent working order - I should not like anyone’s perfect moment to be ruined by out tune piano playing!
Can I pick the songs you play from the set list?
Yes! This can actually help me to give you the best experience and tailor the vibe to how you would like. Again, please do get in touch if there is something specific that you would like to hear
Are you able to bring your own piano or keyboard?
Yes. I have a Roland Privia stage piano and amp which is perfect for background music and playing for any big moments like walking down the aisle.
Can you learn song requests before the event?
Yes, I am happy to take any requests before your event. I can also take any request on the day, but cannot guarantee to be able to honour it! Having said that, I have been able to play 99% of requests at past weddings and parties. If your special song happens to be one I don’t know, I can still learn it, but I would ask that you supply PDF sheet in advance.
