Pianists in Birmingham

Wedding and event pianists in Birmingham

A pianist is one of the most flexible acts you can book for a wedding or event. Across Birmingham, pianists play the ceremony, keep the atmosphere relaxed during drinks and the meal, and some sing as well for a livelier set later on.

Whether your wedding is near Birmingham, Solihull and Sutton Coldfield or further afield, the pianists here cover the whole of Birmingham. Local venues include Aston Hall, New Hall Hotel & Spa and Moxhull Hall, and it's worth checking with your venue where the music or entertainment will be set up. Selly Manor, The Grand Hotel Birmingham and The Bond are among the other Birmingham venues listed further down, each with its own page.

The piano suits almost every part of the day. Classical pieces work beautifully for a ceremony, light jazz and film themes for a drinks reception, and piano versions of pop songs keep a wedding breakfast relaxed.

Since 1999, Hireaband has matched couples with live entertainment for their wedding day. The pianists listed here all travel to Birmingham, and the instant quote button shows pricing and availability in a few seconds.

The essentials:

• Budget from around £250 to £900, depending on the act and the date
• Book for the ceremony only, or for the ceremony, drinks and wedding breakfast
• Popular dates go months in advance
• Everything included is listed in your quote
• Change your mind within 14 days and get a full refund

Some venues have a grand or upright piano that the pianist can use. Where there isn't one, most pianists bring a digital piano that sounds and plays like the real thing. Check with your venue, and tell us when you enquire.

Prices usually start from around £250 and go up to £900 or so. A ceremony-only booking sits at the lower end, while a pianist covering the ceremony, drinks and wedding breakfast, or a singer-pianist playing into the evening, sits towards the upper end. Your quote shows the full price for your date, so you can compare acts on the same basis.

Rather than a generic demo, every act's page shows the performer you would be booking, with videos, audio, a repertoire list and reviews. Between them you can get a clear sense of the act well before the day.

The instant quote button gives you a price and availability for your date straight away. From there, we manage the contract and deposit and keep you updated until the day. Every booking is covered by a 14-day change-of-mind refund, and there's an emergency contact line on the day in case anything needs sorting.
