Piano Entertainment for Weddings, Parties & Events

 

‘Your playing made our entire wedding party come alive’

The perfect accompaniment to your wedding or special event…..

Many thanks for visiting my website! I’m Rich Sully, pianist for weddings and events both in the UK and overseas. I was resident for several years at London’s Savoy and, during the course of my career, I have played at many of Britain’s most prestigious hotels and venues as well as at establishments in many parts of the world. I have been booked to entertain an American President and members of the British royalty and have performed at parties and events for many well known figures from the worlds of entertainment and sport.

Covering all styles of popular music and light jazz including the great standards and music from film and theatre, I draw from a vast repertoire of material, all of which is played from memory. I’ll undoubtedly add a ‘wow’ factor to your wedding or event and will immediately be able to play most requests your guests might make! I can work just about anywhere, from small house parties to large events. Booking is easy and I will make every effort to accommodate the particular requirements of bespoke weddings or events.

No problem if your chosen venue doesn’t have a piano…..

Wherever you’re planning to hold your wedding, party or special event there’s no need to worry about whether or not your venue has a piano available for use. I’ll be able to provide state of the art portable piano equipment and PA system allowing me to work just about anywhere you might have in mind!

I also offer the supply of a Dutchgrand piano shell for weddings and private events. The piano shell looks like a baby grand but can be transported just about anywhere you have in mind provided it’s not at the top of ten flights of stairs! It can be set up anywhere where there is reasonable access and can just as easily be set up outside as inside. With the cost of hiring a conventional acoustic grand piano likely to more than the cost of hiring a pianist, the portable Dutchgrand is proving an extremely popular choice and, with only a relatively modest hire charge, will greatly enhance the look and feel of any wedding or event.

So, if you’re planning to hold an event which will take place in several different rooms or parts of a venue then you needn’t worry – with all of my piano equipment being relatively portable, just about any itinerary can be catered for.
