On Hitched.co.uk since 2022

Last update: June 2024

Based in Malvern, Worcestershire, Robbie is passionate about delighting couples and their guests with beautiful piano music.

He has also recently won an award in the Hitched Wedding Awards making him one of the most recommended professionals by newlyweds on Hitched.co.uk.

Robbie has over twenty-five years of experience playing the piano at various occasions whether that is at weddings or other functions, and can fit in with whatever plans you have and whichever venue you choose. He has a vast repertoire of songs at his fingertips from modern pop and blues, to songs from the shows, classical and jazz standards. He can also learn new songs quickly if you have any requests. It is not possible to list all the songs and pieces he can play as it would be far too long, however the short list of artists below gives you a flavour of the range of styles that he likes to play:

  • Ludovico Einaudi, Yiruma, Chopin, Elgar, Elton John, Phil Collins, Christina Perri, Hans Zimmer, Ellie Goulding, Rebecca Ferguson, Oasis, Bruno Mars, Eric Clapton, Jason Mraz, Take That, Robbie Williams, Lewis Capaldi, Rod Stewart, Lady Gaga, The Beatles, Adele, Billy Joel, Carly Simon, Bob Dylan, The Temptations, Queen, Elvis Presley, Fleetwood Mac, Simon and Garfunkel, Randy Newman, The Rolling Stones, The Kinks, Johnny Cash, Oasis, Coldplay, Ed Sheeran, Van Morrison, Meat Loaf, Richard Clayderman….and many, many more.

You can get in touch with Robbie directly to book his services, request further information and even to request sample recording of your favourite song to help you decide if a live pianist is what you want.


Before the day

Ahead of your big day you can discuss all your requirements covering the style of music you would like, the length of time you would like him to play, the timings of the day, set-up, logistics and location. You can also get in touch with him any time in the run-up if you have any new ideas or if there have been any changes to timings. He is also very happy to send bespoke sample recordings before you commit to booking him.


On the day itself

Robbie will arrive around two hours before he is due to start playing to ensure he has plenty of time to set-up before your guests arrive. The first time you will see him is when he is already set-up and playing the piano. Robbie doesn’t clock-watch at weddings - even the best laid plans can go awry, and he won’t stop playing if timings run over!

Robbie Roberts weddings

Robbie was one of the first wedding suppliers we booked and we’re so glad we did! He played for us going down the aisle, during the drinks reception and during our wedding breakfast. Everyone has commented how lovely the music was and loved recognising modern tunes on the piano. Robbie is also a really lovely bloke who dressed smartly for the day and has several lovely looking pianos including a baby grand piano that really fitted the style of our venue. Highly recommend! - Hannah & Matt

Very talented and Absolutely magical.

From the first note to the last, Robbie played with such grace and passion that it felt like the music was woven into the very fabric of our special day. Every piece was performed with exquisite skill, capturing the joy, love, and deep emotion of the moment.
Robbie was kind enough to learn new music for us and communicate at each stage with us.
His music was not just a background, but a beautiful narrative that enhanced every tear, every smile, every kiss. We really felt the heartfelt dedication in each melody, making our wedding not just memorable, but truly unforgettable. Thank you for giving us a soundtrack to our love story that we will cherish forever.

10/10, I would recommend Robbie!

Our wedding breakfast

We first saw Robbie play at a christmas luncheon...from the moment we heard him play we new that we wanted to have him play at out wedding breakfast.
We decided to message Robbie and ask him to play, he responded quickly with all the details and was willing the send me him repertoire so I could choose the songs I wanted him to play which I thought was professional.
We couldn't have asked for a nicer person to play at our wedding bringing such a nice relax chilled vibe!
If your considering a pianist then I would 100 % go with Robbie.

One of the best decisions we made for our wedding!

Robbie performed at our wedding in December 2023. One of the best decisions we made! Nothing was too much trouble for Robbie and he was happy to learn our chosen song by ear. He added a personal touch to our day and our guests loved him, even taking a few requests on the day! Thank you! - Katie & Josh

Wonderfully friendly and professional pianist, highly recommended!

Robbie was a last minute booking after we decided that we wanted live music for our ceremony and drinks reception. He was responsive to any emails and was open to suggestions of music outside his repertoire. Luckily he knew any songs outside the ones on his list but he will learn any that were required! On the day he turned up and was so friendly, putting us both at ease. He blended in seamlessly to the day and we had so many positive comments on how much he added to the atmosphere of the day.

Thank you so much Robbie, we are so happy we booked you!

An exceptional pianist!

Robbie played at our wedding reception earlier this month and we cannot recommend him highly enough. He is SO talented and it was a real highlight of the day - loads of our guests said how much they enjoyed it. From the outset, Robbie was incredibly responsive and keen to ensure he played the music we wanted to hear. He even went on 'standby' to play at our service without any notice when we discovered there was a possibility the organist wouldn't be able to make it. A lovely chap, truly gifted at what he does and deserves to do really well. Thank you so much Robbie!

Wonderful musicianship, friendly, accommodating and willing

Robbie is a charming person. In the months preceding our wedding he spoke with us on the phone so we could all talk over what would be good and what would be possible.
On the actual day his timekeeping was immaculate; his playing helped build just the atmosphere we wanted during our meal; he included a last minute request from a guest in his repertoire and his whole performance was brilliant.

Very talented, highly recommend!

We booked Robbie for our wedding ceremony in December 2022. He is very pleasant, professional, and incredibly talented. There was nothing that was no trouble, we expressed the songs we would like and was happy to accommodate. Robbie was even happy to learn songs that he was not familiar with. He is very easy to contact and responds quickly, he communicated with us regularly and sent samples for us to listen to. He really made our ceremony everything we had wanted; I always dreamed of having live piano at my wedding and he made it reality. We like to thank Robbie was being apart of our special day, we feel very lucky to have come in contact with him and would highly recommend.

Robbie at our wedding!

Robbie was the perfect soundtrack to our wedding. His music was absolutely beautiful and we received countless positive comments from our friends and family.

Robbie was also incredibly helpful in the lead up to our wedding, and a perfect gent on the day. He also made a special effort to learn any songs that we requested (even the last minute ones).

Thank you Robbie for being such a brilliant part of our big day!
