Last Saturday, I performed at Jen and Richard’s lovely Rowton Hall wedding in Chester. Christmas is around the corner and love is definitely in the air…
I set up the white baby grand piano in the conservatory ready for the drinks reception. Since I was also providing piano music for their wedding ceremony, new roadie Ben set up a piano keyboard in the main room.
The couple had asked me to play some instrumental piano music for their wedding ceremony: Bella’s Lullaby to walk in to; Love Letters from Sex & The City soundtrack and Make You Feel My Love for the signing of the register and Skinny Love by Birdie to walk out to. All great pieces with very different styles: certainly a great combination for any wedding pianist.
Once I had played the newlyweds out, I moved over to the baby grand and played piano with vocals this time for the drinks reception. As requested, I started off with Love & Marriage and a good helping of Rat Pack and other more up to date songs from Jen and Richard’s list of requests.
After a quick turnaround by the very efficient Rowton Hall wedding team, the room was ready for the wedding breakfast. A fun couple and a great day to be part of: I wish the newlyweds every future happiness xx

Wedding Pianist at Mark & Steph’s Chester Grosvenor Wedding
Last Thursday (Thursday being the new Sunday), I was pleased to return to the heart of Chester and another Chester Grosvenor wedding to perform Mark & Steph’s wedding ceremony music and then play piano vocals for the drinks reception.
Steph had requested some instrumental music for the wedding ceremony which actually included two processionals: one for the walk-in of the bridesmaids - ”Where Is My Mind” by the Pixies and then, for the walk-in of the bride the “Glasgow Love Theme” by Craig Armstrong from the Love Actually soundtrack. Two very evocative pieces and there was “not a dry eye in the house” I think it would be fair to say….
