Entertainment By Elaine

• Solo Artist - Piano/Organ/Vocal
• Elaine D Clark - The Gate Keeper - Motivational Speaker
• Elaine D Clark - Wedding Planner - Wedding Planner

Along with being a motivational, keynote speaker, I am a classically trained pianist with Masters work from Cincinnati Conservatory of Music. I either provide the musical foundation for your wedding or I can function as your WEDDING PLANNER. And trust me, after more than 30 YEARS of experience, I can make this a beautiful day for you!

I play piano as well as organ for weddings, funerals, parties and meetings - wherever music is needed. Hire me for that special "touch" to a party or a corporate event. Background music makes any event great. My styles include ragtime, classical, standards, musicals, pop music and much more. I am available anytime in a couple days notice traveling where I am needed.

Why not hire the "EXPERT". Don't trust your event to anything less. You only get ONE chance - ONE shot. Allow Elaine to make your event that special event your guests will always remember! From Pianist Organist to Wedding Planner. She will cover any area you need.

There has never been a better time to add the gift a music to your event! The news is "doom and gloom"....now is the best time to keep a positive outlook! Allow Elaine to play and/or sing and mark your event as "the best ever". Billy Joel once said: "I think music in itself is healing. It's an explosive expression of humanity. It's something we are all touched by. No matter what culture we're from, everyone loves music".

I have played piano and organ professionally for more than 20 years. I have played for more weddings than I can count! My passion is to play and sing - entertain. Training includes Bachelor of Piano Performance from the Dana School of Music, Youngstown State Univ and Master's work at the Cincinnati Conservatory of Music. I currently perform on the Delta Queen Steamboat Company as a permanent sub. On piano I perform all types of music for private as well as corporate events and cocktail parties. Oldies, standards, show tunes, current easy listening pop tunes are just a few of the many styles requested. I also play either piano or organ for wedding ceremonies. I have had alot of experience on riverboat cruises, so I do ragtime as well. Light classical requests are always available. My voice is a 'Karen Carpenter' style - light and pleasant, relaxing. I have performed many events for senior citizen's doing 'sing-a-longs'' and their 1950's favorites and Christmas party sing-a-longs.

• Elaine did such a great job with playing my requests and adjusting to the flower girl and ring bearer when walking in at the ceremony. I couldn't have asked for anything more! Thank you!! -- Lauren T, Brownsburg, IN, 11/5/2011
• Elaine was wonderful. She sat down with my musical family prior to the big day and played through my carefully selected pieces, asking if I wanted a different tempo and other such details. But the best part? On my wedding day, I didn't have to give a thought to my ceremony music--I knew it was handled. Thank you, Elaine; you deserve a billion stars. -- Kathryn C, Carmel, IN, 9/25/2011
• Entertainment By Elaine was absolutely perfect for my wedding! Very professional, very accomodating, and very talented. I would definately recommend her. -- Katie L, Middletown, OH, 2/19/2011
• Awesome! Very helpful and knowledgeable. Helped us greatly at rehearsal which made wedding day run smoothly. I'm very picky and would recommend her to anyone. -- Mickey M, West Lafayette, IN, 9/11/2010
• Elaine was great!!! She was easy to work with, and willing to hear and carry out my specific requests. She was very accommodating, and I would definitely recommend her. -- Amanda S, Indianapolis, IN, 9/25/2010
• Elaine was simply incredible - she was professional, helpful, flexible, and she really knew what she was doing and helped put everyone at ease both at our rehearsal and on our actual wedding day. I don't know what we would have done without her!! She's also very talented. We'd highly recommend her to others! -- Megan C, Urbana, IL, 8/8/2010
• I am absolutely thrilled with Elaine's performance at my wedding. Many of my guests told me how much they enjoyed her playing. I was very thankful that Elaine was able to juggle a few things around to accommodate my wedding when the original performer I booked has to cancel. I would definiately recommend Elaine to others - she is great! -- Laurie S, Indianapolis, IN, 7/3/2009
• No amount of words could say enough about Elaine! She was one of the best parts of my wedding day. I couldn't wait to meet her the day of. She was prompt with responding to my e-mails, and she calmed me down when I was frazzled. Working with Elaine was stress- and worry-free. I can't recommend her highly enough. She even did something extra special at my wedding that I didn't know she was going to do (so it was a surprise to hear it!): She changed a couple words around to one of the songs she played to make it fit my husband and me even more perfectly than the original lyrics. Elaine is ABSOLUTELY incredible. Thank you...thank you...**THANK YOU**! -- Laura S, Indianapolis, IN, 4/24/2010
• I couldn't be happier with Elaine's services or recommend her highly enough. From the beginning she was very professional and extremely accommodating, and kept in communication with me over five months leading up to my wedding. She learned a new song at my request, came to our rehearsal the night before the event, and did a beautiful job of shortening my selections to time perfectly with the processionals. In the midst of chaotic wedding planning it was wonderful to be able to not have to worry about the music. Elaine is clearly very talented and has a lot of experience, and we were completely satisfied! -- Caitie K, Indianapolis, IN, 10/18/2008
• Elaine is very professional and talented. She made very helpful suggestions which helped make our wedding perfect. I would highly recommend Entertainment by Elaine to anyone! Vicki Rowe -- Vicki R, Carmel, IN, 10/4/2008

• We absolutely loved Elaine! She was awesome! We were so blessed to have found her on this website and even more blessed that she had our wedding date still available. I would definitely reccomend her to anyone and everyone! She made the day great! -- Abrah J, Lafayette, IN, 8/30/2008
• Elaine was simply wonderful! I would highly recommend Elaine to anyone planning a wedding. She is an extremely talented pianist who conducts herself in the most professional and caring manner. She was extremely helpful and accomodating with the music selections. I received many comments on how beautiful the music was at the ceremony. Thank you, Elaine ! Jody Ramos -- Jody R, Greenfield, IN, 6/14/2008
• Elaine was fabulous. She showed up on time and was very pleasant to work with. We really appreciate her help at our event! -- Jillian R, Indianapolis, IN, 4/26/2008
• Elaine did a wonderful job at our wedding. She was very accomadating and easy to work with. She made helpful suggestions. She was very professional. As soon as she started playing, I received several comments on how wonderful the pianist was. She was very pleasant, and I highly encourage people to hire Elaine for any event. Thanks, Elaine! -- Joy G, Greenfield, IN, 2/2/2008
• On time (earlier than everyone else)....Did an excellent job, everyone was very pleased as was the bride and groom...definitely would recommend her to friends. -- Daniel D, Greenfield, IN, 11/17/2007
• Elaine Clark provided two hours of non-stop piano entertainment prior to our reunion dinner on the evening of September 10, 2005. Dressed as a professional she performed in the same fashion. I had asked her to include a repertoire of selections coming from the era of the 1950's. I asked that they not be the "canned" tunes one might expect - such as "Heartbreak Hotel" and "That'll Be The Day." She gladly complied and I must say she chose an eclectic list of songs which was a pleasure to our senses. Miss Clark's performance was intended to be background music and she kept it at that. Still, many in our group made a trip to the piano to compliment her. That only made the attractive smile she wore even brighter. I would not hesitate to have her perform at any function for which I found myself responsible. Thank you, Elaine. You were just right. Lynn Howard Garrard, Class President, Griffith H.S. Class of 1960 -- Lynn G, Schererville, IN, 9/10/2005
• Elaine did a fantastic job playing the organ at our wedding. She was kind and professional and her years of experience truly show when she gets behind an organ! Everyone was commenting on how beautiful the ceremony music was. She even asked us what the colors of our wedding were and dressed to match. I would definitley recommend Elaine for your next upcoming event!! -- Alysia P, Crawfordsville, IN, 6/20/2009
• Elaine was wonderful! From the first time we connected online she was extremely helpful not only to the bride but to the mother of the bride. She offered suggestions and was willing to work with us to create the perfect ceremony. She was kind and professional at all times. Thank you so much Elaine! -- Sara S, Indianapolis, IN, 6/27/2009
