Pianists in Cumbria
Wedding and event pianists in Cumbria
A pianist is one of the most flexible acts you can book for a wedding or event. Across Cumbria, pianists play the ceremony, keep the atmosphere relaxed during drinks and the meal, and some sing as well for a livelier set later on.
Across Cumbria, pianists are booked for weddings and events in and around Carlisle, Kendal and Windermere. Venues in the area include Storrs Hall, Askham Hall and Broadoaks Country House, each with its own ceremony rooms, lawns and reception spaces. Other venues in the area include Armathwaite Hall Hotel and Spa, Loweswater Village Hall and The Den at Four Acre, and each has its own venue page further down.
Pianists cover a range of styles. Some play instrumental sets of classical and contemporary pieces; others sing at the piano and can move from background music to a sing-along set later on.
Since 1999, Hireaband has matched couples with live entertainment for their wedding day. The pianists listed here all travel to Cumbria, and the instant quote button shows pricing and availability in a few seconds.

An instrumental pianist suits a ceremony, a drinks reception or a dinner where the music should stay in the background. A singer-pianist adds vocals, which works well for the aisle, a first dance or a later set where guests want to join in.
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.
Each act's page carries real video and audio, a repertoire list and reviews from previous clients. Watching a couple of clips tells you far more than any description can, so it's worth listening before you choose.
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.
