Q: Can a jazz pianist play for a wedding ceremony as well as the reception?

Ceremony, drinks reception and dinner are all common bookings, and one player can cover the whole day where a suitable instrument is in place. Processional and recessional pieces are agreed in advance, and many players will arrange a requested song in a jazz style. Where the ceremony and the reception are in different rooms, allow time to move and set up between them.

Q: How long does a jazz piano booking usually last?

Two to three hours is typical, played as sets of around 45 minutes with short breaks between them. Background playing across a dinner service often runs longer and is quoted by the hour. Arranging recorded music for the breaks stops the room falling silent.

Q: Will a jazz pianist learn a requested song?

Most will take a short list of requests and arrange them in a jazz style, given reasonable notice before the date. Standards and well-known popular songs are straightforward, while an obscure piece may need extra rehearsal time or a fee. Sending the list at the booking stage rather than on the day gives the best result.

Dordogne Wedding Pianist "Olivia was absolutely amazing and made our wedding truly unforgettable. We couldn’t have asked for a better pianist, her performance was beautiful, and her setup added even more to the atmosphere, creating the perfect setting for our special day. Thank you so much!" Based in Périgueux, Nouvelle-Aquitaine, France (253 miles from Santander) 26th April 2026 Sebastian - Wedding

Pugsley Buzzard "Who ever says 'they don't write 'em like they used to' should take a listen to Pugsley Buzzard's latest album Wooden Kimono. Buzzard is a bewitching songwriter and storyteller often combining groove laden or playful tunes with dark lyrics. Showing off his renowned blues - jazz piano style and infectious raspy vocals, Pugsley is complemented on this album by a top band of horns and down and dirty guitar, that makes for hot listening. ". Megan Rowe, Rhythms Magazine." Based in Braga, Portugal (270 miles from Santander) 3rd November 2025 Megan Rowe - Rhythms Magazine

Barcelona Violin Jazz Ensemble "I hired LD Jazz ensemble to play in my venue and they were amazing. High level musicians and lovely compositions. Also important, they are really nice people. I highly recommend them!" Based in Barcelona, Catalonia (336 miles from Santander) Martin Grossman - Bar owner

NoNi Trio "NoNi Trio gave a wonderful, graceful, and elegant performance at our wedding. Their music created exactly the warm, sophisticated atmosphere we had hoped for, and their set was one of the most memorable parts of our celebration. They were exceptionally professional, friendly, kind, and accommodating throughout the planning process. In advance of the wedding, they coordinated directly with our DJ and sound engineer to ensure that all sound-equipment requirements were sorted smoothly. They also discussed the setlist with us clearly and thoughtfully, including many of our favourite classics by Frank Sinatra, Ella Fitzgerald, Nat King Cole, Sarah Vaughan, Peggy Lee, Louis Armstrong, and more. They went above and beyond by working with a friend of ours—a backing vocalist and songwriter—who had composed a song especially for us. NoNi Trio helped incorporate her performance into their set, making the moment feel especially personal and meaningful. It was an absolute pleasure working with NoNi Trio from start to finish. We would wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone looking for beautiful, high-quality live jazz for a wedding or special event." Translated from French Based in Lyon, Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes, France (454 miles from Santander) 20th August 2026 Joyce Chow & Justin Tsui - Private Wedding

James Pace "James did an incredible job at our wedding, he played the songs perfectly for us as I marched down, and back up the isle for the ceremony.
