Booked Alyson approximately 6 weeks before my wedding as my original pianist was unable to attend. I couldn’t be happier with my choice and feel that we got the best deal out of a stressful situation! Alyson quickly reassured us that she could play any piece we wanted and in fact arranged a Tchaikovsky waltz specifically for us as well as two more popular pieces. The music was commented on by guests who all agree that it was beautiful and having her play through the drinks reception made for a lovely atmosphere. I would definitely recommend Alyson.

Alyson played at our wedding and did an amazing job playing exactly what we wanted. She helped with timings for the aisle and was so lovely to work with. Highly recommended. Thank you!

Megan and AndrewSt Luke's Parish Church, Ballymoyer

I honestly cannot rate Alyson highly enough! From our very first emails regarding our wedding she was a pleasure to deal with, offering me not only great advice about musical choices but giving me great tips for walking down the aisle! I was incredibly impressed with the recordings she sent to me at various stages during the planning and her adaptability when it came to tailoring pieces for our specific requirements. On the day itself Alyson’s note perfect playing added an extra special element, everyone commented on how beautiful her playing was and I will always be grateful to her for learning a complicated favourite of mine which brought a big smile to my face in our drinks reception. I would wholeheartedly recommend Alyson to anyone wanting to add beautiful music to their special occasion – the service she provides is second to none!

Ashleigh and LeeClarion Hotel, Carrickfergus

Alyson played at our wedding in October. She was so lovely to work with and the music was absolutely beautiful. She created a medley for us of ‘Canon in D’ with Elvis Presley ‘Can’t Help Falling In Love’ for my Processional. I loved it so much! I listened to it in the run up to the wedding with so much excitement. Thank you Alyson!

Thank you so much for the beautiful piano music at our wedding. We really loved it and our family were remarking how moving and impressive the piano music was. I was listening to your recordings as I was getting ready on the morning of the wedding and every time I hear the songs I get goosebumps! My dad also wanted me to pass a thank you and appreciation of your talent and professionalism along. Sam and I have very happy memories and are very eager to recommend you to others. Thanks again.

Alyson is one of the best pianists on the circuit and I have encountered her several times. Always a pleasure to meet her and listen to her music. I highly recommend her for any event.

Mick O’DellInkwell Cartoon & Caricature, Wedding & Event Entertainment

Thank you so much for making our wedding day! Without you, both on the piano but also your loveliness with it, our day would not have been as wonderful! You are a very special person with amazing talent.

Laura and NoelBelfast Castle, Belfast

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

We have had lots of messages and phone calls this morning to say that it was a great night. Your music was the finishing touch and just made it all perfect. We really appreciated the fact that you stayed until the very end of the night. We will certainly recommend you to other people and if we have a big celebration again, we will want you there.

Ray and BobbyBirthday Celebrations, Donaghadee

Just a little note to say thank you so much for the beautiful music you provided for our wedding! It really made our day! You have such a wonderful talent so once again thank you!
