Jonathan Carlisle is the absolute best and I couldn't have asked for a more professional and talented musician for my wedding day. I had a special request for my favorite Taylor Swift song to walk down to, and he knew exactly how to make it sound. I'm still in tears. AMAZING!!

I was looking for a piano and cello duo and Jonathan was absolutely accommodating and wonderful! He and Adalus were so professional and communicative. I received a rehearsal video of the music I asked for and was so excited to hear it live. There was never any question or worry day of, and even though I was hidden away for all the pre-ceremony music, I loooved hearing it from a distance! It was wonderful for creating the atmosphere I was hoping for. Thanks so much, Jonathan!

Jonathan was great to work with for the rehearsal dinner. When planning the event, we decided on different themes for the three hours he would play - - - disco during the cocktail hour, standards during dinner, and contemporary for the after party. The atmosphere he generated was perfect for each phase of the evening. We have two other children, and can't wait to hire him again!

We had the absolute pleasure of hiring Jonathan for our son’s wedding rehearsal dinner, and we cannot recommend him highly enough! From the moment he started playing, he set the perfect tone for the evening – elegant and joyful. His extensive repertoire ensured there was something for every guest. What truly set him apart was his willingness to go above and beyond. We requested a few special songs in advance to honor family traditions and heritage. He not only learned and performed them flawlessly, but graciously took requests from the crowd without missing a beat. Beyond his incredible talent, Jonathan is just the most personable and kind individual. He mingled with guests during breaks, sharing wonderful stories about his musical journey. On behalf of all parents who drove their children to and from music lessons, THANK YOU, Jonathan, for your discipline and for sharing your exquisite innate talent!

Jonathan’s music added a level of warm and class to our wedding day that made it even more special! Our guests are still talking about his arrangements he performed during the cocktail hour. If you’re looking for a pianist for you special day look no further!!

Our family and guests loved Jonathen Carlisle’s performance at our daughter’s wedding reception held at the Peterloon estate. His superb talent complimented his kind demeanor and elegant grace. His musical repertoire was most impressive, and he had a knack for performing pieces that captured the mood of each moment throughout the evening. He made the night fun and magical. I can recommend hiring Jonathan for your future events with great confidence.

Jonathan was perfect for our backyard ceremony/ cocktail hour. He worked with us to be sure the music selection was exactly what we wanted, he was kind and helpful, and we got so many compliments about him and how he elevated the experience for our guests! Highly recommend!!!

The place where my husband and I had our ceremony and reception had a wonderful baby grand next to a bar outside the reception space. The venue didn't have a pianist to recommend so we were both on the hunt to find one. We stumbled upon Jonathan and his music and reached out to see if he would be the right fit. I couldn't have been more pleased with his music selection during our cocktail hour. We had asked for Frank Sinatra and jazz music to play into the vibe of the evening. We heard fantastic compliments from our family and friends, and we had heard he even played some fun current pop songs like Adel and The Weekend too. 5 out 5!!

Mr. Carlisle was hired for my wedding last May and played during the ceremony and cocktail hour. When you are a bride and a planner (like me) you hone in on the details. With how many things you can worry and think about on your wedding day I realized that the music wasn't one of them. Jonathan is a great musician and took the time to help pick out and learn the music we wanted for the ceremony. When we were brainstorming music I had joked about walking down the aisle to Dancing in the Dark by Bruce Springsteen. Not sure if Jonathan thought I was joking, but he sent a video of a piano version he made of that song. It was so beautiful and perfect. If anyone is looking for a pianist for your wedding then take this as a sign that you found him.

I had reached out to Jon to play for my engagement party and all I can say is WOW!! I was initially thinking of Frank Sinatra's music for the night, but when the energy shifted and he read the crowd, he started playing Queen, Taylor Swift, then Post Malone BY REQUEST!! I knew we made the right choice when hiring him, but after all of my guests complimented us on such a talented, fun, and not to mention cute! pianist, I couldn’t have been happier. It's easy to say that my now husband loved Metallica and the music throughout the night was phenomenal. Highly recommend!!
