Cocktail Hour Piano

Matt set the perfect mood for the evening with his smooth melodies and effortless charm playing piano at our cocktail hour. His music created an inviting atmosphere, making every moment feel warm and elegant while guests settled in. We could not be happier with the performance and how well it played into the evening. An absolute delightful addition to our special day!

Ceremony and cocktail hour

I got married last October in Vermont and Matt played piano for my ceremony/cocktial hour. I would highly recommend him for your wedding. He is so talented and was able to do a great mix of old and new songs that the guests told me they really enjoyed. He’s so easy to work with and listens to what vision you have and what songs you want to hear and then executes it perfectly. There wasn’t a single song he told me that he wouldn’t be able to play. The combination of his talent and easiness to work with makes him a perfect hire for your wedding!

Wedding Ceremony Guest Arrival

Matt played the piano for when our guests arrived before our wedding ceremony. Leading up to the wedding, he was easy to get in touch with, and took our requests for songs that we wanted him to play. On the day of our wedding, he came fully prepared with his list of songs and was dressed to fit the part! Matt played beautifully, and it was exactly the touch we needed to start our perfect day. Guests raved about how talented he was and how his music really made their arrival special. We highly recommend using him for your special day!
