Wedding Ceremony Music
With many years of experience, I’ve performed as one of the leading wedding violinists at some of the most exclusive celebrity weddings and private VIP events across the UK and Europe.
My curated wedding set list includes some of the most timeless and emotive pieces, from Elvis Presley’s Can’t Help Falling in Love to Christina Perri’s A Thousand Years. You can explore more of my performances on my YouTube channel
Whether you're looking for the intimacy of solo violin—either alone or accompanied by my pianist—or the grandeur of a full ensemble, I can be booked for everything from intimate duo sets to full orchestral performances with my Bloomsbury Orchestra.

Drinks Reception Music
As a wedding violinist, I bring an upbeat and engaging energy to your drinks reception, performing vibrant arrangements of well-known pop songs that keep the atmosphere lively and memorable. I love when couples share their favourite artists and song requests – it allows me to create a truly personalised set list that reflects your style and story. From solo violin to enhanced line-ups with live percussion or additional instruments, I tailor each performance to suit your day perfectly. My repertoire is incredibly versatile, covering everything from classical favourites and jazz standards to film scores, musical theatre, and chart-topping pop hits – all reimagined for an unforgettable live experience.

Testimonials
“You were just phenomenal and for us, you were one of the best parts of the whole day. I’m welling up writing this email. The final song you played for just Ben and I was absolutely perfect. One of the most moving and inimate parts of the day, if not the most.
Thank you so much for being part of our day.”

“Matthew played for the ceremony of our wedding in Provence and he did so absolutely beautifully. All of our guests said what a treat it was to listen to him. My favourite moment of the wedding was coming down the aisle to Matthew’s violin version of Leonard Cohen, Hallelujah, which was a special request of mine. When I asked for the song, Matthew recorded two different versions for me to choose from. Not only is he an incredibly talented violinist but also a great guy - so accommodative and helpful and flexible. Couldn’t recommend him enough!”

Grand Piano SHell Hire
I offer the option to hire a grand piano shell, creating the illusion of a grand piano at your wedding—perfect for enhancing the aesthetics of your event, especially for photos and décor.
When booking my pianist, you can choose to add the baby grand piano shell. My pianist’s state-of-the-art keyboard fits seamlessly inside the shell, providing the look of a grand piano without the need for one.
The stylish baby grand piano shell complements any event space, making it the ideal solution for venues that don’t have a grand piano.
