Pianists in Dorset
Wedding and event pianists in Dorset
The sound of a live piano gives a wedding a touch of elegance. In Dorset, pianists play ceremonies, drinks receptions and wedding breakfasts, and some sing as well, bringing both background music and a few special moments.
Popular wedding venues in Dorset include The Barn at Gorwell Farm, Lulworth Castle and Parley Manor, and our pianists travel to weddings and events across Bournemouth, Poole and Dorchester. Tell us your venue when you enquire and we'll help you choose an act that suits the space. You'll find more Dorset venues below, including Deans Court Dorset, Studland Bay House and Symondsbury Tithe Barn, 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.

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.
Expect to pay from around £250 up to £900. 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. Busy Saturdays in summer and December sit at the top of the range, and your quote shows exactly what's included.
Every act's page has video and audio of the performer you would actually book, along with their repertoire and written reviews from couples who have booked them. It's the easiest way to check the style and the sound before you commit.
Enter your date and venue in the instant quote button for live pricing and availability. After you book, we look after the contract, deposit and details, and keep in touch right up to the wedding. You also get a 14-day change-of-mind refund and an emergency contact number to use on the day.
