KEY THINGS TO CONSIDER
Experience
Choose a musician who won’t get performance anxiety! And don’t choose musicians who simply read sheet music. Experience definitely matters.
Repertoire
Choose a musician with a broad music repertoire, including classical, jazz, current top 40 hits as well as popular songs from the 70’s, 80’s and 90’s.
Affordability
Musicians are like food and wine. You want first-class entertainment that also won’t break the budget.

When my partner and I were planning the reception for our wedding, we knew the feeling we wanted to capture. Travelling... across America, and also while basking in the glow of Paris, we enjoyed many nights in establishments where the only thing that accompanies your meal is a live piano player and the company you share, casting a truly momentous air across each evening. So we knew from the start of planning that this what we were seeking: a piano player who would bring this same feeling to our special night.We were so fortunate that a Google search brought Calvin to our attention in the early days. We listened through his recordings and planned our hopes for what we wanted to achieve. Upon messaging Calvin, he was extremely helpful in answering all of our queries (including the choice between hiring a piano or using his keyboard, of which we opted for the latter), and was happy to work towards any special requests we had.Even after almost a year of planning, my partner and I still couldn't picture everything coming together. However, on the night itself, as we sat in the green room with our bridal party, sharing glasses of champagne, we could hear Calvin start to play as guests slowly filtered into the reception room, and we knew immediately we had made the best choice. It immediately set the feeling of the night, one of intimate warmth and class, and this feeling carried throughout the whole of the seated portions of the reception, as Calvin played while all meal services were being served, and guests were able to talk to each other, or filter out and listen to the piano as they wished.My only regret is I didn't get to thank on the Calvin on the night personally, as I didn't want to disturb his beautiful playing. Truly, Calvin was everything we hoped for and more, and made our wedding reception a memorable thing of beauty, where guests could lose themselves in the soft glow of the night.read more
