I have been a wedding pianist for 30 years and have played at varying venues (weddings, coffee houses, New Years Eve events, etc.) with my saxophone and piano/keyboard. I strive to take away the stress and worry of what your music will be like on your special day. You tell me how you want it done and I will work to make it happen so you don't have to worry about the music... you have enough to worry about.
Aric played for my wedding and was prompt, played beautifully and was great to work with! Highly recommend!
Aric was incredible! He was very professional and kind. He worked really well with us leading up to our wedding day and was flexible to make our vision come to life! The music was beautiful and made walking down the aisle so special. Thank you Aric!
Response from Wedding Pianist:
Ben and Annie, thank you for the wonderful review! Your wedding was an absolute beautiful wedding. I enjoyed so much playing at such a beautiful venue and with a beautiful Bride & Groom! Blessings on you both and may God enrich your lives together! -Aric
Played beautifully! Made our wedding so special!
Response from Wedding Pianist:
Thank you, Shallen! Your wedding was beautiful and I really enjoyed playing for your special occasion! Blessings on the two of you! -Aric
Aric was the prefect addition to the surprise voice recital I gave for my mom's birthday! He learned the pieces with no problem and provided a rehearsal space before the event. He was very nice about the fact that I hadn't practiced with an accompanist and was able to follow my lead. He also adapted to the informal nature of the event, playing an out-of-tune piano in a dusty room without batting an eye. THANK YOU, ARIC!
Response from Wedding Pianist:
Audrey, it was my pleasure to accompany such a great voice! Loved your family and the atmosphere! Blessings! -Aric
Great sound and very professional. Would highly recommend.
Response from Wedding Pianist:
Thank you, William! This birthday event was such a joy to play for and your family is wonderful people all around. Thanks for the opportunity!
We all thought the wedding pianist was very good. Only one thing - he really didn't play much contemporary jazz
Response from Wedding Pianist:
Thank you, Renee! I’m sorry the jazz style wasn’t what you expected. I was not aware that you had a certain genre of jazz that you wanted played. I’m an old school jazz player😂 Blessings!
I would give him ten stars if it was available. I had the honor to be introduced to an amazing person! My uncle passed and I had to arrange funeral details while on vacation, then I learned about this site. The wedding pianist responded promptly and met with me before the event to make sure thing went as planned. At the event the eulogy pastor changed the order of the funeral and the wedding pianist followed lead and made this a wonderful homecoming! He even played the piano as I sung my final fairwell to my uncle! Thank you so much for your service!!!!!!!
Response from Wedding Pianist:
Susan, thank you so much allowing me to serve you! The service was wonderful and your family is truly a loving family. I sincerely hope and pray for the best for you and your family as you continue to remember your uncle:)
-Blessings! -Aric

I can be as small as a single corner space with just my keyboard (no sound system), or I can be as large as my keyboard, saxophone and full sound system with backing tracks. I am also able to potentially bring other players if you're looking for something in the way of a band. You can expect the best from me and will always show up early with a smile and willingness to give you the "worry-free" music you're looking for.
