About this vendor

*After a 21 year run as a full-time musician in Los Angeles, I recently relocated to St Johns, Florida! Now happily serving the First Coast!* Music has always been an integral part of my life. I began my music studies with classical piano lessons at the age of 6 and by the time I was 12, I was being paid as the accompanist for Ragazzi, a professional boys’ choir. Since those days, I have amassed over 30 years of experience as a professional musician and composer with an expansive repertoire of classical, standards, musicals, rock and pop. Within a couple months as a Floridian, I already have a thriving schedule of local residencies playing at Ponte Vedra Inn & Club, Vito's Italian Restaurant and the newly opened Marco's Piano Bar in St. Augustine. I perform for all types of events and weddings make up a large portion of my annual events. I have worked directly with high-profile clients as well as the most respected wedding planners and event professionals. I am on the preferred vendor list of many of LA's top wedding venues. The wedding planners I have worked with repeatedly refer me to their clients year after year. I've even performed for a top wedding planner's own wedding. In 2011, I appeared as the featured pianist for a wedding ceremony on David Tutera's My Fair Wedding. My wife and business partner, Kim, is instrumental in managing all of the details and logistics so that I can focus on rehearsing, composing and performing. Kim and I pride ourselves in providing top notch service to our clients. I bring my lifetime of experience as a professional musician and Kim brings her business acumen and attention to detail to every client we work with. It is important to work with experienced wedding professionals for your wedding day because you will find that we will inform you of things that you may not have considered. Weddings have many moving parts and when you hire experienced pros, you will be able to relax and enjoy your special day! I can provide music for your wedding: ~Ceremony (option to attend the rehearsal as well) ~Cocktail hour ~Reception ~Rehearsal dinner ~Post-wedding brunch I usually play solo piano or keyboard. I don't sing as a performer, but I am happy to accompany singers. I have often accompanied a friend of the couple for a special song or two for the ceremony, cocktail hour, grand entrance or wedding first dance. I can also create ensembles with a variety of musicians. For weddings, the most popular is a duo with piano & cello or violin. If your venue has a piano on site, that is great. If not, please let us know and we can accommodate your equipment needs including: Keyboard, PA system, Microphones. I carry a $1,000,000 commercial liability insurance policy which is required at most wedding venues. We support marriage equality and welcome the opportunity to provide entertainment for all unions.

Jeremy was professional, responsive, arrived on time, and played skillfully. He also coordinated with our other musician. He added elegance to our wedding. Thanks!

Jeremy is an an amazing talent! He was a perfect choice for my wedding ceremony! He is very professional and also made great suggestions that gave our ceremony excellent flow. Making us custom tracks to practice with was a game changer. Also the ability to speed up and slow songs down while walking is an amazing addition to any wedding event! Highly recommend Jeremy for any event especially something as important as your wedding day!

Jeremy and Kim were wonderful to work with from start to finish. Kim helped come up with music choice ideas in the planning process. Jeremy offers a wide variety of song choices perfect for anyone’s preferences! On our wedding day, it was rainy and we were having an outdoor ceremony. Jeremy was incredibly kind and flexible despite the circumstances. The music was beautiful and I received many comments about how lovely Jeremy was on piano. Book with Jeremy and Kim, you will not regret your experience and added music touch to your special day! Thank you Weinglass Music!

Jeremy played a central role in my wedding, as his music was the cue for several important elements during the ceremony. He also played afterwards for about two hours. Jeremy is thoughtful and easy to work with. Big bonus: he's written a lot of music, so you can have original music rather than familiar standards if you like. Or some of both; Jeremy's flexible!

Perfect Wedding Performance We had the pleasure of hiring Jeremy for our wedding ceremony in September. His performance was everything we dreamed of and more. Along with playing our chosen list of songs prior to the ceremony Jeremy accompanied our niece for two songs including the processional - it was simply beautiful. He and his manager were incredibly communicative, organized, and worked with us every step of the way to make the event perfect. We look forward to working with Jeremy again in the future!

Jeremy is perfect to have at your wedding or any event! You can definitely tell that him and his manager/wife, Kim, have done events like this before. He is very professional and passionate about his work. He has a large variety of music that you can personally select for him to play. We were able to break it down where we got to pick what songs we wanted to play before the wedding ceremony, during the wedding ceremony, and during cocktail hour. Jeremy is very flexible and will work with what you are looking for. We were able to send YouTube videos and songs of other pianists as reference for him, and it helped him tailor to our needs. His manager Kim is also a huuuge help! For our wedding, we wanted a couple things. We wanted to rent a baby grand piano for the ceremony and we wanted Jeremy to play with a cellist. We thought it would be a lot of work to find a company to rent a piano from, have it hauled over to our venue and then have them haul it back.... Not only that, we thought we'd have to find a cellist for him to play with! Kim made this entire process SUPER easy! With all the wedding planning we had to do, the last thing we wanted to do was add more stress to our list, but thankfully Jeremy and Kim had connections and coordinated all of that for us! We literally just told them what we visioned, and they made it happen! How amazing is that?! Because we used a baby grand piano for the ceremony, we had Jeremy use his Keyboard for cocktail hour to make the transition from the ceremony to cocktail hour smooth. Overall, we are very, very happy with everything Jeremy and his wife/manager Kim did for our special day! If you're looking to add a little elegance to your wedding, hiring a pianist like Jeremy is a nice touch. We strongly recommend them if you're looking to hire them for any event. They both really put in the work throughout the whole time and they deserve all the recognition! They are the best!

From start to finish, working with Jeremy and his wife, Kim, was a wonderful experience! Kim was amazing during our discussions about the vibe we wanted to create during our wedding cocktail hour; she was very responsive to all of our questions. Jeremy was a class act - absolutely professional - and he performed beautifully at our event. If you're looking for a professional, talented, and easy-to-work with pianist for your event, look no further.

I hired Jeremy Weinglass to play before the wedding, for the ceremony (processional/recessional) and for the cocktail hour. He and his wife, Kim, were a pleasure to work with. He has great connections with other fabulous musicians and was able to hire a cellist to accompany him for the ceremony music and they sounded beautiful together. I wanted to surprise my husband and asked if Jeremy would play a couple special songs during the cocktail hour and he was happy to oblige. Jeremy is a true professional that I admire and would recommend to any bride in need of live music.

Jeremy was an awesome addition to our July wedding in Pacific Palisades. He was prompt and professional, and working with his manager, Kim, was a breeze. He has a massive song list to help you guide what you want your event to sound like, and his playing is beautiful. More than that, he comes prepared. When the microphone our venue set up at our ceremony site didn't work (really guys?!), Jeremy stepped in with his own microphone and saved the day. A total gem.

We were very happy with Jeremy's performance and all around professionalism. Guests at the wedding remarked that his playing really added to the occasion and I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone in need of a pianist for an event!
