Awesome Andrew

Andrew was a great asset to our wedding operation.
He really knows what he is doing whether piano or organ and could always be called upon to be spontaneous if we had a song request. He’s quite the musical prodigy and our guests thoroughly enjoyed his musical accompaniments.
He has a strong and confident singing voice and brought life to the day.
Andrew looks completely comfortable doing what he does. He appears focused and yet light-hearted and smiled throughout the ceremony. His friendly yet professional demeanour made him very approachable.
