ABOUT ME
Hi, I’m Ben
a professional wedding pianist in Derbyshire. I’ve been playing the piano for over 30 years and I fell in love with playing at weddings in 2008 after being invited to perform at a destination wedding. It was amazing to see how much the music meant to the couple and their guests. I was hooked from that moment.
Since then, I’ve had the pleasure of playing at weddings all over the UK and beyond. Whether it’s during the ceremony, the drinks reception or your first dance, I love helping couples create a relaxed, memorable atmosphere with music that really means something to them.
Why Choose Live Piano Music?
There’s something magical about hearing your favourite songs played live on the piano. It’s not just background music, it’s part of the experience. I take the time to learn the songs that matter to you, played with feeling and finesse.
Live piano creates a romantic and relaxed feel that pre-recorded playlists simply can’t match. It helps set the tone and gives your wedding a truly personal touch, whether you’re in a stately home, a rustic barn or a stylish city venue in Nottingham or Derby.
Tailored Music for Every Moment
No two weddings are the same, which is why I work closely with every couple to create a musical plan that reflects their style. I can play for:
- Ceremonies – from bridal entrance to the signing of the register and your exit
- Drinks Receptions – light and uplifting background music as your guests mingle
- Wedding Breakfasts – gentle melodies that add to the atmosphere but never overpower conversation
You can explore the full Repertoire list here. It’s a small sample of what I can offer. If there’s a particular song that means something to you, I’d love to hear about it. I’m always happy to create bespoke arrangements so your wedding music feels completely personal to you.
“During our marriage ceremony it was so special to hear Ben play during the tears and the laughter.”
