    A true musician, not just a wedding entertainer!

    Martin is an excellent musician and professional person. You are lucky to have Martin perform at your wedding as Martin would not be out of place at a formal state dinner! Martin goes above and beyond to ensure that you choose the music that means the most to you and is happy to learn any song. Martin is more than a wedding entertainer and to refer to him as simply that is an insult to how great he really is.
    We really appreciated Martin’s flexibility in travelling between the church and our reception venue and setting his grand piano up outside at last minute due to great weather!
    Our guests complimented Martin’s performance at our wedding, with one friend asking “where did you find him?!” He is brilliant and adds real class and charm to the day.

    Yorkshire Wedding Pianist's reply:

    Thank you so much for your incredibly kind words. It was an absolute pleasure to be part of your wedding day and I’m so pleased the music helped make the day feel extra special.

    I loved working with you on your song choices, and I’m delighted your guests enjoyed the music too!

    Thank you again for having me — and I wish you both a lifetime of happiness together.

    Every Yorkshire wedding deserves a Yorkshire Pianist - book Martin

    We initially met Martin at a wedding fair in York, as soon as I heard him play, I knew we had to book! Martin added a special ambience to our day, everybody was so relaxed and loved the tracks he performed - his repertoire list is extensive! Big thank you for helping to make our day so memorable! Highly recommend

    Yorkshire Wedding Pianist's reply:

    Thank you Sarah for your lovely review. It was a pleasure meeting you at the wedding fair in York, and I’m so glad my music stood out to you from that very first moment.

    I’m delighted to hear that the piano helped create the relaxed atmosphere you wanted for your day, and that your guests enjoyed the music too. Being part of such a special occasion is always a privilege, and I’m grateful you chose me to be part of it.

    Thank you again for your kind words and recommendation — it truly means a lot. Wishing you both a lifetime of happiness together.

    Seamless, professional, great vibes

    Martin kindly stepped in at the last moment for our wedding in November 2025 following a cancellation and helped turn a stressful situation into a breeze and make our wedding day extra special. Having an extensive repertoire he adapted to the jazzy vibes we were after, covering our exact requests for the ceremony and providing further options. Helpfully Martin knew the venue and the general order of the day and provided a seamless professional service - all the right tracks at the right time, taking a few song requests on the day during the reception. Very pleasant and easy to work with, Martin blended perfectly to the vibes of our wedding day. Thanks for the top service Martin and helping us out at the last moment!

    Yorkshire Wedding Pianist's reply:

    Thank you both so much for your incredibly kind words — it truly means a lot. I’m so glad I was able to step in and help, and even happier that everything came together so seamlessly for you. It was a pleasure to bring those relaxed, jazzy vibes to your ceremony and reception exactly as you’d imagined. Thank you again for trusting me at the last moment and for such a thoughtful review. Wishing you both a lifetime of happiness together. 🎹✨

    10/10 Weding Pianist

    We got married in October 2025 & had the best day, in no small part down to the Yorkshire Wedding Pianist. He played before, during and after the ceremony (including the aisle walk) & then he played alongside a saxophonist during the drinks reception. He was absolutely awesome & I highly recommend him to anybody!

    Yorkshire Wedding Pianist's reply:

    Thank you so much for your lovely review! It was a real honour to play for your Ceremony and Drinks Reception, and I’m so glad the music helped make your day feel special.

    Something a bit special

    Martin was absolutely fabulous from start to finish. I had always wanted a pianist to play at my wedding and Martin created the perfect atmosphere for our special day. His communication with us from the moment we booked him was excellent and we really appreciated that he played so many of the songs on the (very long!) list that we sent to him in advance. I would highly recommend Martin to anyone wanting something truly special and personal to you.

    Yorkshire Wedding Pianist's reply:

    Thank you so much for your wonderful review! It was an absolute pleasure to be part of your special day, and I’m so glad the music helped create the atmosphere you had always imagined. Your song list was a brilliant mix and I really enjoyed preparing and performing it for you and your guests. From the very first message, you were a delight to work with, and I truly appreciate your kind words about the communication and planning along the way. I wish you both all the best in married life!

    Can’t thank Martin enough

    Martin was amazing from booking to his sets on the day.
    I asked Martin if he could work with me to create a personalised voiceover set to music for the prelude to our ceremony. He worked with me back and forth to create it exactly as I imagined and everyone complimented it on the day (and cried their eyes out)!
    He catered to requests in the drinks reception and gave the most calming atmosphere to our day
    Super responsive to emails and will recommend him to anyone I know getting married in future!

    Wonderful addition to our wedding day

    Martin was absolutely wonderful. A few weeks before the wedding we had a call where he asked what we wanted including favourite songs & any special requests. This was easy to do as he had a list on his website as inspiration, but you could add 1-2 of your own as well. On the day it was simply stunning! The guests loved having him there. Thank you, Joe & Nicole

    Yorkshire Wedding Pianist's reply:

    Thank you so much, Joe & Nicole! It was a real pleasure speaking with you both beforehand and helping to shape the music for your day. I’m so glad the songs and atmosphere made the day feel special, and it means a lot to hear that your guests enjoyed it too. Wishing you both all the best in married life!

    Amazing Pianist

    We booked Yorkshire Wedding Pianist – Martin Hamer for our drinks reception, and he was absolutely fantastic. He played all the songs we requested, along with others that perfectly matched the style of music we love. The atmosphere he created was wonderful, and so many of our guests commented on how much they enjoyed it. Martin is a talented pianist and was a great addition to our big day we highly recommended!

    Made our ceremony so beautiful and our cocktail reception classy!

    We had Martin at our wedding ceremony and cocktail reception - when we were wedding planning we hadn’t considered hiring a pianist, but after meeting Martin at a wedding fair, there was no way we could not. He completely transformed the ceremony and was very accommodating and supportive of our song choices, and he added a touch of class to the cocktail reception. From first meeting Martin, he has been quick to respond to any questions and a great communicator which really helps during wedding planning. Martin, thanks so much for making our wedding so beautiful, you were one of the best wedding decisions we made.

    Yorkshire Wedding Pianist's reply:

    Thank you so much, Emily! It was a real privilege to be part of your ceremony and cocktail reception, and I’m so glad the music helped make your day feel extra special. It was a joy working with you on your song choices, and I really appreciate your kind words about the whole process too. Hearing that I was one of your best wedding decisions truly means the world – wishing you both a lifetime of happiness together!
