Wedding Reception•Reviewed on August 7, 2024•From Lake Geneva, WI

Our wedding guests raved about one thing, and it was Matts performance during our cocktail hour! Matt was so kind and easy to work with. I've recommended him to all of our family and friends. I hope to have more events in the future where we can have him included. It made our day so special and memorable. We can't sing his praises enough! :)

Thanks so much Jess!!

Fundraiser•Reviewed on April 28, 2024•From Lanark, IL

Matt is a magnificent professional pianist. We hosted an fundraiser for over 80 people and everyone thoroughly enjoyed his music. Our event was a success and Matt played was certainly part of making that happen.

Thanks so much Sandra!

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on December 15, 2023•From Plainfield, IL

Honestly no complaints. I sent him a list of songs I wanted to be played at my wedding ahead of time. I asked for audio files of the ceremony songs and he delivered and even made the adjustments I requested. The day of my wedding, I received lots of compliments on the musicians and It truly felt magical. Would 100% recommend and hire again.

Thank you Carla - it was such a pleasure to be a part of your special day!

Anniversary Party•Reviewed on October 22, 2023•From Dekalb, IL

Of course. I did not get to meet him until after. I walked down the aisle. But I heard the music from where I was with my girls and it was absolutely beautiful. I also sent the girl out there. With a Boutnaire for him. He played everything to the exact itinerary that we had. And then some so thank you. Matt and I highly recommend him..

Thank you Susie! So grateful to be a small part of celebrating your and William's 20th wedding anniversary - all the best to both of you in everything!

Matt played a short concert of classical selections for an annual convention at our nonprofit organization, and many thought it was a highlight of the event. Matt is not only a superb pianist, but he is friendly and personable. We highly recommend Matt for your event! --Nancy

Wedding Reception•Reviewed on July 12, 2019•From Woodstock, IL

We have nothing but positive things to say about Matt. He played for 3 hours at our casual home wedding reception. Arrived early, accompanied a guest who sang Tightrope from Greatest Showman, took song requests from guests, was very pleasant to work with and is overall an outstanding pianist and musician. We would hire Matt in a heartbeat for another gathering. I may even plan one just to have him back. Thanks, Matt for adding so much to our special day!

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on February 26, 2019•From Chicago, IL

Matt played background jazz piano at a brunch and reception for my wife’s birthday. Matt was thoughtful and responsive throughout the entire process. He arrived well ahead of everyone and blended perfectly into every aspect of the event. Everyone loved Matt’s playing. He set the mood for the event perfectly. My two daughters (vocalist and guitarist) wanted to perform one song with Matt. They were in three different cities until the morning of the event. Two weeks in advance Matt sent a flawless recording of his piece that our daughters used to rehearse separately. Their performance was great. Matt was flawless, and could not have made the process any easier.

Thanks so much Brian! It was a pleasure to play for your event and help to celebrate with Gwen!

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on November 23, 2018•From Hinsdale, IL

Matt Peterson is a true professional! We could not have hired a better pianist for our party. I am still getting texts from people saying it was the best party they have been to in years. Matt was so nice and accommodating to all our guests. He is able to play anything which was great for our youngest to oldest guests! I HIGHLY recommend Matt Peterson and will definitely be requesting him again!

Thank you Angie! It was a pleasure being a part of your event!

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on August 30, 2018•From Chicago, IL

Simply phenomenal! Matt recently performed for my wedding pre-ceremony cocktail hour and ceremony. He knew exactly what I wanted immediately and executed it flawlessly. All of the professional musicians attending my wedding were impressed. And on top of that, he was a delight to work with. I feel truly grateful to have found him, he far exceeded my high expectations. If you are considering hiring a pianist for a special event, stop right here. You have found the right person!!

Thank you Kathryn! It was a beautiful wedding!

Review by Brian S.

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on July 5, 2018•From Glenview, IL

We hired Matt to provide music for our wedding ceremony. He was very prompt in his replies and flexible in accommodating our requests. We asked for a jazz playlist prior to the ceremony, requested more traditional numbers during the ceremony, and pop for the recessional. Our requests included two songs he had not performed previously. Matt put together a fantastic ensemble to meet the varying needs we had for the music and arranged the new songs in a manner that was outstanding to hear. We received as much positive feedback on his work and his ensemble's work as any vendor we worked with for our wedding and would instantly hire him again in the future.

Thank you Brian and Kerry and congratulations!

Wedding Reception•Reviewed on September 6, 2017•From Chicago, IL

We hired Matt for our wedding reception during cocktails and dinner. He made this time so elegant and special for our guests and us! His beautiful playing filled the library's Winter Garden with the perfect ambience. He did all of this with extremely little instruction on the day of the event, all arrangements being made via email prior to, and executed perfectly. I had several special requests from several genres, including Coldplay, Fragile (by Sting, from The Living Sea), Claire de Lune- and he played each of these flawlessly and without question when I asked. He was so friendly and professional- I'm so happy we hired Matt and recommended him enthusiastically!!!

Thank you Christina! Was a pleasure playing for your wedding reception!
