Dorel the Saviour!
Dorel Oprea
Dan T booked Dorel Oprea for their Wedding
Hertfordshire
I must start off by saying how amazing Dorel was on the day. He was thoroughly professional, played the right songs at the right time and was a lovely man!
Prior to our wedding, Dorel's communication was spot on. He was really attentive and asked when to play certain songs at certain times etc.
He played, with the grand piano shell for the ceremony, during the photos/ canapes & the wedding breakfast. It looked fantastic. And he was well dressed for the part aswell.
As well as playing fantastic and recognisable songs for the whole day, he became our saviour at one point!
During the ceremony, a nightmare situation happened. My wife had chosen a specific song she and the bridesmaids/ ushers were to walk down the aisle to. Unfortunately the sound system at the venue, for this crucial part, failed us and the song didn't play. Dorel looked at us, as aghast as I was. Then quickly sprung into action and played Ed Sheeren's 'Perfect', so that they weren't walking out into silence. He was our saviour at that point! And it was a perfect song choice aswell.
He also played the specific requests at the right times (for the signing of the register, walking out of the ceremony, last song etc). A standout moment was when Dorel played the walking out song (the Harry Potter theme tune, no less) and our guests loved it!!
Dorel was a crucial part of our day and really helped the day flow with his piano playing. Our guests all commented on how fantastic he was and I would definitely recommend him to anyone thinking of hiring a pianist for any special occasion. We can't thank Dorel enough.
