Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on November 4, 2023•From Gray Court, SC

Mark did an amazing job at our wedding and the ceremony music was just beautiful! He was very easy to communicate with and helped give recommendations when I wasn’t quite sure what I was wanting. He is great at what he does and it was a pleasure working with him!

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on June 4, 2023•From Lincolnton, NC

Mark was truly a talented musician and he made our wedding day so special. He was very accommodating to our requests. We received compliments from guests on how beautiful the ceremony music was and we couldn't have asked for anything better and would 10/10 recommend!

Mark as not only extremely professional & talented but he was kind as well. He arrived in plenty of time to set up & took very few breaks. Thank you Mark was completing our evening of Love, Wine & Cheese for Opera Guild of Charlotte.

Mark was excellent at communicating and delivering. His band was phenomenal, and music was on point. We would definitely hire him again for future events.

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on September 24, 2018•From Concord, NC

First time hiring a pianist to play background music for a party at our home. Mark did a great job playing a variety of music. His playing extended from the initial 2 engagement ... to 3 hrs because the guest were enjoying the live music it so much. We look forward to having Mark back.

Wedding•Reviewed on January 10, 2017•From Collettsville, NC

We hired Mark to play during our wedding ceremony and for our cocktail hour. After booking him we did not hear much follow-up until I reached out with our music specifications. He was then quick to respond that all of our requests were manageable. He arrived early and got set up. I did not interact with him much as I was busy getting ready. The ceremony went smoothly with the music. Cocktail hour was great. He brought his own keyboard and plugged into the resort's system. Very easy to work with and willing to offer music suggestions, but very hands-off until I reached out with details. A GREAT price for the talent he has!

Wedding Reception•Reviewed on September 11, 2016•From Columbia, SC

We hired Mark Catoe to provide piano music for our daughter's wedding. He played before the ceremony as guests arrived. Also the processional, and recessional. My daughter had special requests for these and he was glad to learn them and did an amazing job. He then played for our cocktail hour. Very talented, very professional and we would definitely recommend him!

Wedding Reception•Reviewed on September 4, 2016•From Belmont, NC

Mark is a consummate professional. He was punctual, his tone was well balanced, his selection of music was very appropriate, and his audience provided excellent feedback on his performance. I look forward to hitting Mark again for our next hosted event!

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on October 6, 2015•From Fort Mill, SC

I would recommend Mark Catoe to anyone in a heartbeat. He is extremely talented, professional, kind and accommodating. We requested he learn a number of songs for our wedding ceremony and we were thrilled with the outcome. He learned the songs perfectly and did exactly what we asked of him. I also asked Mark to participate at our rehearsal the night before and he was happy to do that as well. He made our ceremony. Thank you, Mark!

Wedding Cocktail Hour•Reviewed on August 9, 2015•From Charlotte, NC

Mark did a great job as pianist during cocktail hour at my son's wedding. I was booking him from out of town so trusting someone you have never met can be a scary thing. I did not need to worry. Mark was great!

Mark was great and super easy to work with. He played during the cocktail hour at our wedding reception at the Mint Museum in uptown Charlotte and was great! Thanks Mark!

Wedding•Reviewed on July 7, 2015•From Charlotte, NC

Mark was fantastic! His music was absolutely beautiful. It made our wedding at The Ritz Carlton so elegant and special. He played the most beautiful songs at the ceremony and cocktail hour! He took our requests and played his own songs! He is professional and so very talented. Anyone would be lucky to have him at their wedding! Thank you Mark! Angie and Chris Cox

Wedding Cocktail Hour•Reviewed on January 6, 2014•From Shelby, NC

Mark played at our cocktail hour and during dinner. Everything went seamlessly. His music selection was appropriate and sounded great. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for a talented piano player who is professional and reliable.

Engagement Party•Reviewed on September 22, 2013•From Spartanburg, SC

Mark played for my daughter's engagement party and did a wonderful job. He drove from Charlotte to Spartanburg (in the rain) and played for 3 hours. The music was the perfect background music, and it set the tone for a lovely party. Everyone commented on how nice the music was and it added such a great touch to the party. I will definitely use Mark again!!!

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on May 28, 2013•From Charlotte, NC

Mark was great! He was so low key on the wedding day and never bugged me with logistical questions (unlike others who kept interrupting me in my bridal suite trying to ask me where things were) - because God only knows I was already so stressed out. He knew exactly where to hang out and set up. The music was just the right level of loudness and so beautiful. Perfect! He is such a nice guy too. Definitely consider hiring him for the your next big event!

Memorial Service•Reviewed on April 25, 2013•From Mount Airy, NC

Mark was wonderful! Very professional, excellent song choice judgement, and he played beautifully. I couldn't be happier. I would definitely hire him again!

Cocktail Party•Reviewed on October 31, 2012•From Charlotte, NC

Mark was on time and knew exactly what to do with very little direction. He was very professional as well.

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on August 11, 2012•From Charlotte, NC

Mark Catoe played piano at my wedding and did a fantastic job! I opted to not have him come to the rehearsal, but he did so well at the wedding that it didn't even matter. The music flowed beautifully and the guests had nothing but compliments for him. He even introduced himself after the wedding and gave his congratulations, which he didn't have to do. Professional, talented, and has great communication!

Anniversary Party•Reviewed on November 30, 2011•From Florence, SC

Mark helped to make our 30th Wedding Anniversay really special. He was truly music to our ears. We will find another reason to have him play for us again. Mark you were GREAT!

I was a little leery about hiring someone this way but it was a huge success. So glad that I found Gigmasters and Mark Catoe!
