I had Annette play the cello for our ceremony, she was AMAZING. I cannot believe how wonderful the music was and I couldn't have been happier to have her on our big day. She was so professional and talented, the music alone nearly took my breath away.I had Annette play the cello for our ceremony, she was AMAZING.

He arrived promptly and immediately met with our officiant to ensure music was played at all the right times.

Andrew was great! He went out of his way to help find music he hadn't played before and prepare it for my ceremony. He also worked with my guitarist and vocalist before the ceremony to perfect the songs. He is very friendly and easy to work with!Andrew was great!

Everything we wanted and more!
I decided a few weeks before our wedding that I really wanted piano to be part of the ceremony. I played growing up and felt it would make the ceremony more intimate. We were so lucky to find Andrew! He was accommodating, organized (even when I was not), easy-going, reasonable, and most importantly, an amazing piano player. We were able to select songs that were meaningful to us and it truly made the event much more special. I can't recommend Andrew enough for your event!I decided a few weeks before our wedding that I really wanted piano to be part of the ceremony.

Beautiful Music for a Beautiful Memory
I was so fortunate to find Andrew and cellist Annette for my sister's wedding. Contacting him was super easy, and he was very responsive to all my messages, questions, and suggestions. I found a piece of music online for piano and cello that we envisioned for the big day after I transcribed it and arranged some of it around. I sent Andrew the sheet music and it was learned quickly, and sounded absolutely beautiful on the day of the wedding.
The Bride was indecisive about prelude and postlude music so we trusted Andrew and cellist Annette to choose appropriate music from their repertoire and everything sounded lovely.
Doing business was a breeze, payment was easy, I never felt out of the loop, and Andrew always answered my emails the same day they were sent. They arrived early and immediately set up without direction, and I simply could not have been happier. Hire these musicians and you will not be disappointed!I was so fortunate to find Andrew and cellist Annette for my sister's wedding.

Classic and Professional!
Andrew was an amazing pianist for a wedding I worked this past weekend. Not only was he quick to respond, but very flexible in his work to allow the bridal party and family plenty of time to enjoy the music and be seated during the ceremony. He was a pleasure to work with!Andrew was an amazing pianist for a wedding I worked this past weekend.

Mr. Grainger is a true professional. He was very responsive to my questions, and made many fine suggestions.
On Wedding day, he arrived early, assessed the people, and really set a nice tone during the pre-wedding gathering and during cocktail hour.

Andrew played the piano for our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour/reception. We can't recommend him highly enough! He was professional, courteous, and helpful throughout the entire process. His fees are completely reasonable for couples who can't break the bank for their wedding. We requested a few specific songs that were a bit off the beaten path and Andrew handled them with ease. Most importantly, the music was beautiful and several of our guests made a point to comment how wonderful it was. You can't go wrong in choosing Andrew to play at your wedding.Andrew played the piano for our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour/reception. We can't recommend him highly enough!

Andy and his wife played piano and cello at my recent wedding at the Driskill in Austin, Texas, and I'd give 6 stars above on everything if it were possible! The ceremony music was standard fare (piano + cello) then Andy played two hours of piano during the cocktail reception prior to dinner (jazz, ragtime, classics).
The music on the day was absolutely gorgeous (as you would expect from someone with 30 years experience!) but almost as important to me was how reactive and helpful Andy was in the build-up to the wedding. From learning obscure new songs for us, to helping organise a soloist at the very last minute - he answered questions very quickly and was helpful beyond anything I expected. Given that I was organising the wedding from abroad with a time zone difference, his help and reactivity were simply invaluable. I worked with nearly a dozen different service providers for my wedding, and he was a standout performer - in both senses of the word! Very, very highly recommended.Andy and his wife played piano and cello at my recent wedding at the Driskill in Austin, Texas, and I'd give 6 stars above on everything if it were possible!

Annette Eicker provided cello solos for our son's wedding and for the first hour of the reception. Not only is she very gifted musically, she is wonderful to work with! She was even willing to play samples for us via phone so we could hear her style. She has a great repertoire of pieces, and being that our son's bride is Russian, was completely amenable to playing Russian classical music in addition to traditional wedding music and a piece for background during a poetry reading. She was very easy to conduct business with, and she made the entire process easy for us as well. I cannot recommend her highly enough! She truly made our son's wedding special!Annette Eicker provided cello solos for our son's wedding and for the first hour of the reception.

Andrew was amazing. I gathered a list together of songs and he played them without any problems. He went above and beyond for me by contacting my venue personally to see if his speakers were allowed. I had numerous compliments about how elegant the event was and I feel like he added to this effect.Andrew was amazing. I gathered a list together of songs and he played them without any problems.

Andrew was very easy to work with and always responded in a timely manner when coordinating all the music for our catholic wedding ceremony along with our cantor. On our wedding day, I could not have been happier with how everything turned out. The music was absolutely beautiful, even better than I imagined. It was the perfect touch to the perfect day! A huge thank you to Andrew's piano trio!Andrew was very easy to work with and always responded in a timely manner when coordinating all the music for our catholic wedding ceremony along with our cantor.

My husband and I wanted a piano & cello to play Landon Pigg's "Falling in Love at a Coffee Shop" as the song that I walked down the aisle to. Andrew & Annette agreed to arrange the piece for these instruments, and it turned out perfect. They were very professional, easy to work with, and affordable.
It made me a little bit nervous that I could not hear the piece before my wedding day (since I am a musician myself and kind of particular about music), but there was no need to worry. Everyone also said the musicians playing of "Gabriel's Oboe" was the most beautiful thing they had ever heard.
You can trust Andrew to prepare beautiful music for your wedding. You can also trust that if he is not available, he will not leave you hanging, but instead do the professional thing of making arrangements for an equally talented musician to be there for you. I highly recommend him.
