Cheshire Wedding Pianist

Cheshire wedding pianist Liz Hendry was back at Sandhole Oakbarn to play on a beautiful sunny day for Joy and Ryan. The ceremony was in the amazing barn conducted by Cheshire East Registration service, or as they are widely known, Your Ceremony, with a gorgeous view of the Sandhole Lake in the background. https://yourceremony.org.uk/



Cheshire wedding pianist playing modern songs

Joy and Ryan were really keen to have modern music in their ceremony and Joy walked down the aisle to Liz’s version of ‘Symphony’ by Clean Bandit, which is a lovely choice and really unique. The exit song was ‘Clocks’ by Coldplay which is a great upbeat tune, full of energy for the Grand Exit. The piano at Sandhole Oakbarn is well looked after and in amazing condition so it’s always a pleasure to play it.

Outdoor drinks reception – Cheshire Wedding Pianist

Due to the amazing weather, everyone headed outside for photos during the drinks reception where Liz had set up her portable piano under the clock tower to play and entertain the guests during drinks and canapés from Top Table, who provided the catering for this lovely Cheshire wedding. Liz continued with modern covers of popular songs, everything from Oasis, Louis Capaldi with some film music, dance tunes, and indie and rock thrown in. Andy Griffiths was there taking pictures and family shots in front of the lake, and capturing all the fun in a natural way as it happened on the day.

A review from Ryan and Joy

Ryan and Joy were kind enough to write a Google review a few days after the wedding which was really kind of them. It said,

“Liz is absolutely amazing if anyone is looking for a pianist to play at their wedding get in contact with Liz! She played on our wedding day at The Sandhole Oakbarn where she played a great selection of music which started the day off perfectly. Thank you!

Sophie was kind enough to write me a lovely review on my Facebook page about her dream wedding at Mottram Hall.

“Liz played at our wedding September 2022. From the moment we met Liz and listened to her music at Mottram open day back in 2020 we knew she was perfect! We had to post pone our day to covid and Liz was able to move our day to the new date 😊 Liz is so down to earth and gave us lots of recommendations on songs and listened to our thoughts on what we liked. I had a call with her a couple of weeks before the big day and Liz played our walk down the aisle song and entrance song to make sure it was perfect. On our day she played absolutely beautifully. All of our guests commented on how lovely it was to listen to through the wedding breakfast.
Highly highly recommend!!! Liz you are amazing!!”

Mere Court Wedding

After a couple of postponements of her Mere Court Wedding, I was thrilled to finally play beautiful Laura down the aisle when she married her lovely partner Fez in the Arboreum. As you can see here they were married in front of this lovely window over looking the gardens at the Mere Court, which is just outside Knutsford. Find out more about Mere Court weddings here https://www.merecourt.co.uk/weddings/



They had chosen one of my favourite songs ‘A Million Dreams!’ which I played for Laura to walk down the aisle.

Friends and family had travelled from all over the UK to celebrate with them and they enjoyed amazing food, drinks and lots of fun here at this wonderful Mere Court wedding. I played throughout the meal for them and then I particularly enjoyed the speeches which were really entertaining.

The team here at The Mere Court did an amazing job, as well as

Mere Court Wedding Review

Laura was kind enough to add this lovely review on my Facebook page.

“Liz played at our wedding in December. She was absolutely wonderful! We had Liz play throughout our meal and it was so relaxing to hear for the guests. Liz plays such a range of songs so nothing was too much trouble when we asked for a request. Thank you so much Liz 💓 xxx”

Simply The Best – Bartle Hall Pianist

Bartle Hall was the setting for this beautiful winter wedding and Claire and Tim were an amazing and lovely couple to work for with great taste in music. Featured songs were ‘True’ by Spandau Ballet and ‘Hey Ho’ by the Lumineers. Their guests really knew how to celebrate and were all having a great time.

Simply The Best – Bartle Hall Pianist

Myself and Tim cannot thank Liz enough for making our wedding day the day it was. It was the most easiest decision to make on hearing her play at the Bartle Hall open day back in April, as soon as we heard her we wanted her! We booked her there and then, had a lovely call with her to go over the song choices and she just got us and what we’re about. We wanted a song from the Lumineers for the brides entrance song. It wasn’t listed on her repertoire but Liz did it for us, absolutely loved it!!!

Such a talented Pianist and can literally play anything. She gave us goose pimples throughout the ceremony and all through dinner, everyone in the room loved her and commented. Thank you Liz for such a wonderful vibe at our wedding, you were definitely meant to be and so glad we saw you when we did. You’re amazing! Thank you! Claire and Tim xxx

Feedback from the bride after her wedding-


We were lucky enough to win Liz’s playing as part of our dream Wedding prize! 

The effect on our wedding was outstanding. Honestly absolutely amazing. We loved every second of Liz playing, she set the mood so well and made the day magical. She was very professional and we must have told the whole world about her by now! Just fabulous. We’re so very grateful for everything she provided for us for the most special day. Aime

Music at Knowsley Hall

Andrew and Ruhi were looking for some music at Knowsley Hall for their wedding ceremony and drinks reception. Liz and Mark of http://www.livepiano.co.uk are trusted partners at Knowsley Hall and can usually be found exhibiting in the state dining room at venue open evenings. Ruhi was kind enough to leave this wonderful review for Liz after their wedding in March 2022.

  • We met Liz and Mark from Live Piano Ltd at a wedding open day at Knowsley Hall and the music was enchanting. It had an amazing effect on our wedding day! The live music provided such a personal touch and brought so much emotion. All our guests loved it and we’ve had so many positive comments. Liz was exceptionally professional and absolutely faultless. She was wonderful from start to finish through the booking process and on the day itself. I would recommend her 100%! It was absolutely perfect and I wouldn’t change a thing. Thank you! Ruhi Pugh

Knowsley Hall

This photograph taken by Lesley Meredith Photography is of the absolutely stunning Megan who married Ant at Knowsley Hall in September.

She made an amazing entrance as I played an arrangement of ‘Save The World’ by Swedish House Mafia that I did especially for her. Megan, who is beautiful, would look fabulous in anything, but just look at that dress!!!!!!!!

I was thrilled to receive this lovely feedback after the wedding

“We were literally blown away the first time we heard Liz play the Piano at Knowsley Hall wedding open evening. We asked Liz to play some of our dance music favourites as a trial and we instantly felt the magic. We wanted to walk down the aisle to ‘Save the World’ by Swedish House Mafia and Liz provided us with a demo 🥰 it was perfect, romantic and so special so we booked straight away.

Liz playing at our wedding ceremony was pure magic. The music was beautiful, emotive, romantic and gives us goosebumps every time we listen back to the demos. We can’t wait to relive this in our ceremony video soon. Thank you for making it so perfect.

How professional was she?
So professional from start to finish, from the demos which gave us a taster of the repertoire we wanted and our EDM faves. To the clear communication throughout covid and needing to move our dates.
Would you recommend her to others?
Yes – we already have ❤️

We will be forever grateful for the unforgettable performance at our wedding ceremony and we are very lucky to have met you. Thank you so so much, love Meg & Ant xxx”

Ashfield House

It just added to the brilliance of Ashfield House

  • Whenever I went to a wedding show at Ashfield House it always seemed that Liz was there playing too. Her piano music filled the entire venue and it just added to the brilliance of the venue – I knew I wanted that ambience at my big day! Liz is also the most warm and approachable person too so I was absolutely thrilled when I finally found out she had our date free and she could play our wedding day!

What effect did she have on your wedding at Ashfield House?

  • Huge! We’re massive music fans and Liz was just accommodating from start to finish! We had a few requests that Liz learnt for us and played like she’d know them forever! She’s an absolute talent! So many guests have commented on how fabulous Liz was! Not only her playing but just how much of a lovely person she is too! I do however apologise for how early our guests started singing along at the wedding breakfast haha! Liz’s playing is completely infectious and she’s just so lovely – you feel she’s one of your guests (that can obviously play piano fabulously!)

The entire experience was flawless

  • Liz is so professional! The booking element is seamless and Liz’s communication is timely and prompt! Liz is so kind and nothing ever feels like too much trouble or effort! The entire experience was flawless from start to finish (and this includes the endless kindness Liz demonstrated through COVID, when with no trouble she rebooked our date three times! I’m so happy we didn’t lose Liz through our rebooking process! Our day would not have been the same without her!)
Would you recommend Liz Hendry Wedding Pianist to others?
  • Absolutely! And I already have!! Liz and her music made our entire wedding day – from walking in to the ceremony room to leaving the wedding breakfast. Thank you so much!

  • Liz is such a talented lady who’s music gives you that extra special feeling to your wedding day. Her playing is so subtle but will leave such a memorable stamp on your day – not only for you as a couple but for your guests too. As a person, Liz is kind, warm, lovely and a complete professional from booking to the end of your big day! Liz feels like an extension of your guest list – she’s such a fabulous person! We can’t recommend having Liz be a part of your big day – she truly made ours and we’ll always be so thankful! Lucy and Lewis x

Mottram Hall Wedding

Amy and Ben Birch chose Liz Hendry to play the piano during their Mottram Hall Wedding in the summer. It was a wonderful family occasion and this couple had an amazing day.


Why did you book Liz for your Mottram Hall Wedding?

We visited Mottram Hall on an open day and as soon as we walked in, we noticed a romantic atmosphere and it was the live piano music that made everything feel magical. Liz was warm, welcoming, friendly and asked us if there was a particular song we wished to listen to. We asked for ‘perfect’ by Ed Sheeran and out of nowhere, she started playing it and it was truly amazing! We asked her to check her diary for us straight away!!!

What effect did she have on your wedding day?

Every single guest commented on how beautiful it was during the wedding reception and wedding breakfast. It was brilliant and really helped the day to feel magical.

How Professional was she?

Absolutely faultless!!!! Amazing from initial meeting until leaving us on the day.

Would you recommend her to others?

Absolutely! We have already been asked by one of our friends (who is due to marry next year) so we of course gave her your details/website straight away!!!

Additional comments

Having you play at our wedding was just an amazing part of the day and we would not change a single thing about it! When we asked you to play “Only Fools and Horses” as our entrance song, you were so flexible. We can safely say that listening to it being played for the first time, when we walked in the room, just made the moment feel so much more special and we have it captured on video to remember forever. Every single note was played to perfection and it added a little bit of character and personalisation to our day. We can’t thank you enough for everything you did from start to finish. When we initially had to postpone our wedding, due to the pandemic, you fitted in with our new date straight away and allowed us to few relaxed about everything.

Keep being yourself Liz – you’re truly a very talented pianist with a heart of gold and there will be so many more couples (both before and after us) who will feel the same way as us – truly blessed and lucky to have had to opportunity to incorporate your happiness, smiles and wonderful talent into the best day of our life!
