No charge is made for any requests for songs you may have, given a notice period of one week. If less notice is given, I may be able to accommodate if I already know the song.

Some songs just don't work on the piano - I will advise you if I believe a satisfactory arrangement cannot be made of a song, but it only really applies to heavy rock, rap or dance songs which most people would be sensible enough not to pick anyway.
​
For advanced classical music (Grade 7 or above) notice of one month should be given. If I consider that the piece would require a large amount of practise time, I may need to charge extra - however, nobody has requested anything that difficult yet!

If you or any of your guests would like to sing as part of the ceremony, reception or at any other point, I will be happy to accompany. Again, a notice period of one week is required. Bear in mind that singing with no rehearsal is risky! Misunderstandings over tempos and keys can be embarrassing -  it is highly advisable to arrange a run-through on the day, especially if the singer is not an experienced performer. Knowing in advance the key the singer prefers is especially useful to me.

If you do wish (or have a friend or relative who wishes) to sing or play an instrument at your occasion, a separate rehearsal before the day of up to one hour can be arranged for a fee of £30 if you come to me in central Bristol, or £40 if I come to you (with piano if needed) and you are in or near Bristol. This isn't compulsory, but might settle a few nerves, including my own!
