Reviews…
'David played for our recent wedding ceremony and was absolutely perfect. We had so many comments from guests to say how much they enjoyed the music, it really set the scene and created a lovely atmosphere. David was communicative and friendly throughout the planning process and played a beautiful adaptation of one of our favourite songs for the processional. We would definitely recommend!' Kate & Sam - Tunnels Beaches
John and I want to express our sincere thanks to you for contributing to making our wedding day the best day of our lives. The ceremony went perfectly and the timing of the music was just brilliant. We loved the understated yet classy atmosphere your music brought and so did our guests. You have also been very helpful and friendly throughout the planning process, which we have truly appreciated! Thank you so much. Sofia & John - Dewsall Court
We recently got married and were privileged to have David play for our Drinks Reception. From the moment we walked in to David playing "Here Comes The Sun" on our beautiful Spring afternoon he captured the mood perfectly and we could not have asked for a better compliment to our day. We had so many compliments from our guests of the lovely relaxed mood of the reception which David was a huge part of. Thank you so much David. Absolutely perfect!! Faye & Jack - Dewsall Court
If you're looking for a guitarist for your event, you've found your man! David surpassed all of our expectations and made our wedding extra special. We even asked for a difficult Irish piece to be played as I walked down the aisle and his version brought tears to everyone's eyes. Thank you so much David! Olivia and Patrick - Beaconside House
Highly recommend David. His guitar playing is beautiful - it provided a magical sound track to our wedding ceremony and reception. We were inundated with compliments about the music from our guests. He went above and beyond learning two new songs for us at relatively short notice, both of which were executed to perfection, testament to his skill. Thank you David! Jonny & Charlotte, Clevedon Hall
David played at our daughter's wedding in Brecon. His music greatly enhanced the atmosphere at the Barn at Brynich. The tone was beautiful and he included some personal choices such as the Beatles for the groom, and Celtic airs to reflect our heritage. From when I first contacted David, he was very pleasant, helpful and engaged with our wedding. He made every effort to find out what music we wanted, and to create that.
He played as guests arrived, accompanied our soloist during the ceremony, and then played a generous set list outside as our guests had drinks on the lawn. As we were organizing the wedding at a distance, it was great to find someone so reliable, efficient and professional. It was also lovely to meet David on the wedding day. We were all delighted with David's musical performance which made a big contribution to the wedding, and I highly recommend him as a wedding guitarist. Miranda, The Barn At Brynych
David was fantastic! He learnt a piece of music especially for my aisle walk which he played beautifully. We had so many comments about how great he was. His repertoire is super broad and as above, he can pretty much play anything with a bit of notice! We’ve been raving about him since the wedding and would recommend to anyone thinking of having a guitarist for any celebration. Lauren & Ryan - Pebworth
"We decided to have David play at our wedding (church ceremony) due to his huge repertoire of songs.
From the first point of contact, not only was he patient with our busy schedules but he gave us great confidence that the music at our church ceremony would be intimate but memorable.
David also volunteered to learn some personal favourite songs of ours and this really showed just how passionate he was about music but also to make sure our day was perfect.
On the day, due to hectic scheduling, David was able to manage himself and discuss all requirements with our wedding coordinator, and played the music as our guests walked through the church. The music gave the church a real atmosphere and we received plenty of compliments about our choice of musician.
I cannot recommend David strongly enough and implore anyone looking for an acoustic guitarist to consider him. Thank you so much David for your amazing rendition of Mr Bojangles, among other songs and I am wishing you all the best for the future." Michael & Zofia, Brympton House
Thanks for playing at our wedding David - you are so very talented, giving us the perfect audio backdrop to our special day and a really nice guy as well. 5 stars, we’d highly recommend. Gav & Anna - Cider Mill Barns
Dave helped us out of a real sticky spot due to last minute changes to our wedding day because of covid! He was recommended to us by a friend & we honestly couldn’t be happier that covid did scupper our original music plans!
From the get go Dave was at the end of the phone for me to discuss logistics & songs! Dave played his guitar during our welcome drinks and wedding breakfast, he created the most relaxed atmosphere for us and our guests, playing on the balcony as we all enjoyed our food.
He literally played for hours without needing any direction. His inbuilt playlist is incredible, he really is so talented! Dave absolutely made our wedding day even more perfect than we could have imagined & all of our guests were super impressed!
Very reasonable price, friendly & professional! Highly recommend! You won’t be disappointed! Thank you Dave!

David is an accomplished musician with incredible talent. He performs an interesting set of varied classic and alternative songs - the perfect backdrop for any event. Speaking from the perspective of an event professional and guest, I highly recommend booking David. Jade H
David recently played at our wedding – he was fantastic! As well as playing his extensive repertoire or music whilst all of our guests mingled after the ceremony, he was willing to learn a few songs of our choice to play as my wife walked up and back down the aisle. He sent us samples of the songs to make sure we were happy with them before the day.
We had so many comments from the guests about David’s music. Lovely guy, couldn’t recommend him highly enough. Rory & Charlotte - The White Barn, Frogmary
About me…
Whether it’s a particular piece to walk down the aisle to, or beautiful background music for the drinks reception or dinner, I can provide the perfect musical accompaniment to your day. I have a large repertoire of classic & modern pop songs, all played in a folky acoustic style, along with many classical, jazz and folk pieces. I can prepare & learn special pieces for your day & tailor the music to compliment the ceremony perfectly.
I’m based in Cardiff & have great experience performing at weddings and shows across the country. My own music (davidianroberts.com) has been played on the BBC Radio 2 Folk Show, and by Cerys Matthews and Guy Garvey on BBC6 Music. Amongst other projects I have worked as a session guitarist at Abbey Road in London, performed at the Roundhouse in London, & the Manchester Albert Hall, & worked with Lighthouse Family on acoustic versions of some of their hit songs. https://youtu.be/af0apD2dcnE
I am able to travel across South Wales, Mid Wales, Bristol & The South West of England & can even come to Birmingham & the Midlands. Get in touch about travel costs for anything even further afield.
I can play in large and small spaces, indoor & outdoor, and have high quality battery powered amplification if necessary, so it’s easy to set up anywhere, without the need for power outlets or extensions.
