Based in Grand Rapids, MI, WilliamVZ Music provides live piano/keyboard services for weddings across the state. I specialize in arranging music to couples' requests, such as performing a familiar song in a different genre. I offer music during any part of your wedding day(s), including rehearsal dinners, ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception.
Outside of the wedding scene, I took piano lessons through college and have experience playing for cocktail events in downtown Grand Rapids.

Pianist/Keyboardist
Hi! I've been playing piano/keyboard for weddings across Michigan for three years. I've played classical, jazz, pop, movie soundtracks, and video game music in the past. When not rehearsing for a wedding, I make excuses for a second helping of coffee ice cream by the lake.

We had William play piano for our wedding ceremony last year and we absolutely cannot recommend him enough!! We actually knew him through college, and knew right away once we got engaged that we wanted him to play for us. His rates were incredibly reasonable and he was SO great to work with.
From the beginning of planning, he was very proactive in communication with us and made sure that we knew exactly what was going on. Throughout the process, we discussed the music we wanted and he was willing to learn new music for us to give us exactly what we wanted. He was incredibly professional and made sure throughout the entire process that everything would go smoothly. Our ceremony music was one of the least stressful and most enjoyable parts of the wedding and we owe that to William. His work made our wedding SO special and we cannot thank him enough!!

Will did an amazing job playing piano for our wedding. He's really friendly and worked great with our other accompanist, and his playing is just gorgeous. We're so glad he was able to play and make our ceremony even more beautiful!

Exquisite! William was wonderful to work with and did a fabulous job performing piano renditions of our favorite/chosen music (Lalaland soundtrack, Pure Imagination, Young and Beautiful, Love Me Like You Do, etc.). He truly set the mood for the entire event and we loved his work!

We booked William to play at our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour and he was so great to work with! Not only is he incredibly talented, but William was professional, flexible, and very responsive, which made the process so smooth. We went through everything we were looking for, and he was able to deliver - he even learned specific song arrangements for the ceremony. Thanks William for helping to make our wedding day so special!

Hi, Emily, thanks for your feedback! I had a lot of fun making a weekend trip out to Detro...
it and playing keyboard at the historic venue.

My husband and I both love the piano and one of the things I wanted most for our wedding day was a live musician. We discovered William on Zola and he was amazing to work with! Not only was his rate extremely reasonable, but he was willing to learn so many new songs for us to bring our unique music tastes to our special day. He is a very skilled musician and he even learned a couple of songs purely by ear without sheet music for us.
William was professional, timely and a pleasure to work with. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking to add some magic to their event.
Thank you again William!
