“I knew I wanted Liz Kohl to perform at our wedding, and I feel so lucky that we got her as our live music! Liz’s passion for and excellence in music is evident whenever she performs. Her playing brought such beauty, life, and engery to the service. Liz is a delight to work with and an incredibly gifted artist and musical professional.

“The first time I heard Liz Kohl play at a friend’s wedding I knew I wanted her to play at mine when the time came. I didn’t want any awkward track pauses - I wanted a musician who could improvise seamlessly no matter what happened with the procession and that is Liz! She basically breathes music and makes it all so natural and effortless. She also has an excellent network of other musicians for accompaniment - she made it all so easy. My husband and I felt a huge wave of relief after our first meeting with her - we had a general idea of a couple specifics and Liz was spot on with her suggestions that fit our vision. Having a COVID wedding was stressful enough - it was a huge blessing to know we didn’t need to worry at all about the music - Liz had it completely.”
“Liz played the piano for us at our wedding ceremony. One of my fondest memories of our wedding day was thanks to Liz. We had a morning ceremony after overnight camping at a summer camp. As we began walking from the breakfast area to the meadow for our ceremony, Liz sat at her piano in the empty meadow and began playing, waiting for the wedding to arrive. As we led our wedding guests down the forest path, I could hear the faint piano music grow louder and louder until we entered into the sunlit, music-filled meadow. It was one of the most magical moments of my life.
Later I learned about all of the behind-the-scene issues that Liz helped solve. Liz pivoted and made things work in order to offer us musical beauty on our wedding day with her keen adaptability. She brought pure joy and delight to our day. Thank you, Liz for the heart and skill you share with those around you, each time you sit to play. We will be forever thankful to you!!”
