Pianists in York
Hire a pianist in York
A pianist is one of the most flexible acts you can book for a wedding or event. Across York, 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 York, pianists are booked for weddings and events in and around York, Selby and Tadcaster. Venues in the area include Middlethorpe Hall, Barmby Field Barns and The Hospitium, each with its own ceremony rooms, lawns and reception spaces. Other venues in the area include The Grand, York, Villa Farm and Bedern Hall, and each has its own venue page further down.
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.

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.
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.
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.
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.
