Mr. Lackey was professional, courteous, and accommodating from start to finish.
He is a very talented pianist who met our needs for my daughter's wedding to make it beautiful and
memorable. Class Act!
From the very start of hiring Doug, he was responsive and focused on being prepared for our event. At our event, he charmed us with his talent and song list he prepared. We will hire Doug over and over again! Doug, we loved you, you are absolutely amazing! Thank you
Response from Doug Lackey:
Thank you so much, what a treat for me to get to help with your event! I had a great time playing for your group. I loved taking the requests on-the-fly! That was a blast. I look forward to seeing everyone again in the future. Give my best to all! -Doug
I booked Doug a whole year before the event. Doug came to our rehearsal the day before, and he was on time for the ceremony. He learned a couple of extra obscure songs that we requested (from YouTube videos I sent him!), and he played everything we wanted! He even was able to tie off the songs with a flourish when the wedding procession ended. Very glad we counted on Doug for the music for our big day!! :)
Response from Doug Lackey:
One of the things I love to do is to put a special fingerprint on each ceremony. Your selections allowed for just that. Thank you for allowing me the privilege to help with your special day, I’ll never forget it! May you have continuous love and laughter all your days together!
Doug plays the piano with ease and knew every song we requested. He had us sing along with him. We definitely would use him again for a party and recommend him to anyone who asks.
Response from Doug Lackey:
Thanks for the review! It was a pleasure to come and help with the party. You have a fantastic crew, and I hope everyone has a great Christmas and New Years!!

Doug was a spectacular piano player! He learned a new song just for our ceremony (and it was not a simple piece). He was very communicative and made great suggestions to help fill in our recessional song. He’s very talented and great to work with!
Response from Doug Lackey:
Thank you so much for the kind words! It was an honor to be able to help. May love and laughter fill your hearts and your home for all the days of your lives.
Doug arrived a little early to check out my venue, did a quick review, asked what kind of music we liked and then simply delivered a wonderful evening of super quality piano music. The perfect accompaniment for our small dinner party. Professional in every way.
Response from Doug Lackey:
John, thank you so much for the opportunity to assist in making your gathering a success. It was certainly a pleasure to meet you and your guests. Please let me know if I can be of any help for any future events. May you have a wonderful Thanksgiving and Christmas! - Doug
Doug played my New Years Eve/Birthday party and I cannot say enough good things about him! He read the room so well and kept the good vibes going all evening! I can honestly say that Doug’s piano playing was the highlight of the party. I will 100% hire him again in the future! THANK YOU, DOUG!!
Response from Doug Lackey:
Thanks for your kind words! It is refreshing to work with people of your level of professionalism. I will always be ready to work with you again on any event you may have. Thanks again for choosing me to help!
We could not have chosen a better pianist for our wedding. Doug was great at communicating prior to wedding day. We gave him a list of songs we wanted to be played at specific points before and after the ceremony and it turned out perfect. We also made slight changes to the song list and order in the week before the wedding and he accommodated us perfectly.
He arrived early which turned out to be great because we started our small ceremony a little earlier than planned. He also took a few pictures of us from his vantage point behind us on stage which turned out great; we appreciated that very much. And on top of all of that, he was very kind when we spoke with him afterward!
We highly, highly recommend Doug if you want a great pianist for your wedding!
Response from Doug Lackey:
Thank you for your kind words, and thank you both for allowing me to assist with your big day. It was a pleasure to help. May you find true joy and happiness together for years to come!!
Doug did a fantastic job at our wedding. He learned some of our requests and did a phenomenal job putting those together. If I ever need a piano player for another event, I will definitely be calling Doug again.
Response from Doug Lackey:
Thank you, Jesse, for your kind words. It was my pleasure to help with the event. The song selection was excellent, I’m glad I was able to facilitate the requests.
We hired Doug to do our wedding processional/recessional and he was AMAZING! He even played the Jurassic Park theme song for me to walk down the aisle. 10/10 would recommend, he is remarkably talented.
Response from Doug Lackey:
Thank you for this review, Katie! It was my pleasure to be a part of your beautiful wedding. May you and Connor have many years of joy and happiness.
Doug did an excellent job providing music for our VIP event. We had excellent feedback from our customers and management. We look forward to working with him again.
Response from Doug Lackey:
It was a pleasure to assist with the customer experience at your event. I look forward to being a part in the future and helping any way I can.
Doug was such a pleasure to work with. It was so easy to communicate with him about the likes of me and my groom. He played all of our all time favorites and it added such an extra elegance to our small intimate wedding. Thank you Doug!!
