I have been playing piano for weddings and private functions in Hertfordshire for over 15 years now. In that time a lot of technological advances have taken place, and therefore the way that couples find me has changed a lot too.
Venue recommendations are invaluable - I am a proud approved supplier for several wedding venues in Hertfordshire, including Offley Place, Tewin Bury Farm, Coltsfoot Country Retreat, Hunton Park and many others - however this type of recommendation is now just one of many ways. And so often couples are doing their own research on line to find the music options that are right for them, and so now, I need you!
I have been humbled by the thank-you letters and cards that I have received over the years from happy couples that have chosen me to be part of their celebrations. It has been a privilege to play piano as the backdrop to one of the biggest days of their lives. Whether it is the ceremony, during the wedding breakfast or both. I keep every thank-you card as I always appreciate them taking the time to get in touch to say thanks. It is just a shame that I am the only one who ever gets to see these! - so my message to all the kind people who take the time to write that have booked me over the years is that if you could instead shout about me on social media and let other couples looking for a wedding pianist know that I am a tried and tested option that you have enjoyed, I would really appreciate it.
Social media apps come and go in popularity, but whether it is Instagram, Facebook, Pinterest, Twitter Snapchat or any other app - the power of "word of mouth" on all of them is still as important as ever.
Thanks very much!
