You were amazing and we are so happy you helped us make our wedding so special. From the initial communication to the day, you were fantastic. I felt great confidence. You made me feel at ease and any silly question I asked you replied. You played beautifully throughout the ceremony and reception. Added a beautiful vibe to the day. We enjoyed listening to you and I loved all the Disney songs you played! You are amazing at what you do and I would recommend you to everyone! We cannot thank or recommend you enough!

We booked Alyson for our wedding on 30th October 2019 in Corick House for both our ceremony and reception drinks. From the moment we booked, Alyson could not do enough to help us. You were able to create the most special moment for us and one we’ll cherish forever when you completed a beautiful composition of our two favourite songs for when I walked down the aisle which had Chris and everyone else in tears. You were so professional and helpful, sending us all of our chosen songs in advance so we could be sure of what we wanted. Even when I asked for a song you had not tried before, you did not simply play from sheet music but edited it so it would be perfect for our day. Everyone remarked on your performance throughout the day and we both cannot wait to hear it again in our wedding video where we’ll definitely include your recordings throughout. It made our day even more special and we both cannot thank you enough! Definitely recommend hiring Alyson for any occasion!

I am an admin on a large wedding group on Facebook called Weddings, Brides, Dresses and More Original. I was very lucky that I was given the opportunity to review some of Alyson’s songs. I found the website super easy to navigate! Everything was clearly labelled and laid out. There was a vast variety of songs for us to choose from. I really loved how you could hear the songs before deciding which ones to choose – I found this feature the best! I was blown away with how amazing the music sounded. We could tell straight away what songs they were. Communication with Alyson was amazing and she made sure that we were happy with what we had chosen. We will be using the music in our upcoming wedding ceremony in August and I know our guests will love the music just as much as we do! Highly recommend to everyone!

Thank you so very much again for your wonderful playing at Katie’s and Andy’s wedding last Saturday. It was just a delight to listen to the lovely music played so beautifully by you. Both Kathleen and I together with Katie and Andy were just so pleased. Everyone commented most favourably. Thank you for playing “These Foolish Things” as well as everything else. We’ll have to remember you for future functions! Thank you again and it was so nice to meet you.

John and KathleenParents of the Bride, Larchfield Estate, Lisburn

I cannot recommend this lady enough. After realising we hadn’t organised a pianist for our wedding we contacted Alyson a month before the big day. In that time she was able to compose arrangements for all the music we wanted and learnt new pieces especially for us. She is an incredibly talented and skilled pianist and made our wedding ceremony very very special. Thank you so much Alyson.

Thank you so much Alyson for making our wedding day in Dublin so perfect! You were so helpful and spent so much time with us during all the preparations. The music for our ceremony and the drinks reception was perfect and the sound quality was great. All of our guests loved it. You created such a wonderful atmosphere and were so friendly, caring and professional. We are so lucky we chose you for our wedding. Thank you.

Eoin and YenPortmarnock Hotel and Golf Links, Dublin

Alyson played at our wedding on 2 May 2019 and it was one of my favourite features of the day. Not only is Alyson a talented and creative pianist, she is so easy to work with, keeps you in the loop via email and she makes the music so personal. Our choice of music was pretty quirky but this wasn’t a problem for Alyson who spent time in advance arranging pieces of music to suit. Alyson, I really appreciate all the effort you put into making music such a special part of Jaime & I’s day so a massive thank you!!

Lauren and JaimeThe Old Inn, Crawfordsburn
