Wedding Services

I can provide music throughout your special day – for your wedding ceremony, your drinks reception and your evening meal. Or for whichever parts you choose. Everyone’s plans are different, so I’ve made things simple.

All my services are individually priced so you can decide what suits you. Details available on request, so just send me your booking details to receive a quotation for your event.

Wedding ceremony music

Enjoy listening to your favourite songs on your special day! Choose your own music for the Processional, the Signing of the Register and the Recessional. You can also include additional instrumentals or hymns for religious ceremonies. As part of my service, I also provide music before the ceremony to create a welcoming atmosphere for your guests’ arrival.

Drinks reception music

Live music creates a wonderful atmosphere for special occasions, so why not treat your guests to an afternoon of classic love songs on piano? For your drinks reception, I would propose playing a selection of easy-listening songs and romantic ballads so your guests can relax and enjoy listening to the music whilst the happy couple celebrate their big day with a few photos!

Wedding consultations

I would welcome the opportunity to discuss your wedding music in more detail with you. Should you wish to meet with me, I’d be happy to arrange a suitable time with you. Alternatively, we can discuss things over the phone or via email if this is more convenient for you. Just whichever you prefer.

Accompaniment for vocalists

I can provide accompaniment for vocalists if needed and transpose songs to their preferred pitch. I can also provide recordings of their chosen songs in advance, should this be helpful for rehearsal purposes.

Special song arrangements

As part of my service, I can create special arrangements of your chosen songs, even those which are not available as piano sheet music. Please ask me if you’d like a unique version of your favourite song!

Wedding rehearsals

If you would like me to attend your wedding rehearsal, please let me know. This is not normally included in my fee, however I would be happy to discuss this further with you as there are other options available. For example, I can provide recordings of songs in advance which will allow you to rehearse timings etc for your Processional.

Personalised wedding CD

If you wish, I can also provide a personalised CD of your wedding ceremony music so you can enjoy listening to the soundtrack to your special day again and again! This is available on request for a small fee.

Advice on wedding music

If you’d like to know more about music for wedding ceremonies, or you have any specific song requests, please get in touch and I’ll be happy to help.

If you’re interested in arranging a booking or if you’d like more information on my services, please contact me and I’ll be happy to discuss this further with you.

Thank you so much for such a perfect performance and for adding so much to the style and tone of the day. We couldn’t be happier with the music and how it all came together. Not surprisingly, our guests were complimenting you throughout the evening. It was a pleasure to work with you.

A quick email to give you a big thank you for your performance last Saturday at our wedding. It was a fantastic atmosphere you created and we spotted our favourite songs throughout the day! Everyone has been commenting on the live music since! Next time we need a pianist in Belfast (or Barcelona!) without doubt we will give you a call! 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.

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.

Cannot thank Alyson enough for making our wedding such a relaxing day. She was so helpful with suggesting songs that would blend in for the Signing. Very talented and would definitely recommend.

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.

Claire and JonathanLarchfield Estate, Lisburn

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

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!

Eleanor GrahamAdmin Team, WBDM Facebook Group

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 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!

Helen and GrahamThe Old Inn, Crawfordsburn

Thank you so much for the job you did at our wedding, you really were such a pleasure to work with! The music you played was beautiful and a lot of guests commented on what a lovely person you are (we agree)! We will definitely recommend you to anyone we know needing a piano player in the future.

Karina and EdwardLa Mon Hotel, Belfast

Just wanted to send you a little email to thank you so much for your beautiful playing yesterday, everyone thought you were amazing – you made our day that extra bit special. Thanks again.

Jayne and GarethOrange Tree House, Greyabbey

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

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!!
