• Great pianist for events. Really enjoyed her music. -- Barbara M, Excelsior, MN, 12/23/2011
• Sharon was the key ingredient for a wonderful, surprise Christmas party. She participated in the "surprise" and provided just the right touch of background music for lively conversation in a home setting. She also led a spontaneous sing along of Christmas favorites. Sharon will be perfect for your party ! John Jorde, Minneapolis -- John J, Minneapolis, MN, 12/15/2011
• We LOVED Sharon! She was very professional, friendly and her music was wonderful. Sharon was very accommodating to our needs. She listened to what we wanted and delivered with excellence. We would work with Sharon again. Thanks for making our day even more special!! Kim & Brent -- Kim E, Chaska, MN, 11/25/2011
• Sharon did a great job at a moments notice. She self-directed and delivered beyond expectations. -Dan -- Dan B, St Paul, MN, 9/19/2011
• Sharon was great! We were very happy to have her as our ceremony and cocktail hour musician. She was very thorough and organized. She met with me before the wedding to play some selctions and help me make decisions! She even set up a place and time for us to meet! Our wedding day went so smoothly and she was a big part of that! -- Shelly B, Minneapolis, MN, 9/17/2011
• Thank you Sharon for making our wedding ceremony wonderful. The music was perfect and the guest truly enjoyed the service. You made the everything easy which is something that I and probably every bride appreciates. Thank you again! -- Lynn A, Sartell, MN, 6/24/2011
• She did a great job. Awesome to work with, great music, and we got a lot of compliments on her performance. -- Krista B, St Paul, MN, 7/9/2011
• Great performer and was really open to working with us. It was a pleasure! -- Solomon A, St Louis Park, MN, 6/4/2011
• Both Sharon and Serena were just great. Thank you for making it easy to contact them. Terry Anderson -- Terry A, Bloomington, MN, 5/18/2011
• I hired Sharon to play at a memorial service for my dad and I wanted 40's and 50's music, not the traditional somber music, to keep the event upbeat. That wasn't the easiest mission for her to accomplish, but accomplish it she did. She came totally prepared with just the kind of music I was looking for. You know it was great when after the short service everyone stayed and talked, laughed, and caught up because the background music was so relaxing and perfect. People didn't want to leave. That is just how I wanted it. So thank you Sharon. I am so glad I found you and you were available on such short notice. -- Doreen W, Burnsville, MN, 4/5/2011
• Sharon came to meet with us at our church and was very friendly. She had great wedding music and was very talented. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a piano player for their special event. She was great and made our wedding a very memorable occasion! -- Katelyn L, Afton, MN, 1/7/2011
• Sharon was professional, creative and accomodating. We had the blizzard of the year on our wedding day and she was prompt and flexible (when other vendors were unable to make it). She made every effort to be there (even going the extra mile to stay closer the night before due to the weather conditions). I can't say enough good things about Sharon and would highly recommend her, not only for her talent but for the ease of working with her. -- Kari M, Shakopee, MN, 12/11/2010
• Overall, we were very pleased with Sharon and the services she provided. She went out of her way to meet with us and discuss music choices, she picked up a new piece to learn on short notice, and her music was lovely. In our wedding planning experience, Sharon was easily the best communicator of all our vendors, always following up on a timely basis. We would have no problems hiring Sharon for another event. -- Chris D, Eagan, MN, 10/1/2010
• We were looking for a last minute pianist for our wedding and Sharon was able to be there with such short notice. She was very professional and very talented. I would hire her again! -- Tracy H, Eagan, MN, 9/25/2010
• Just Tremendous... My Guests so enjoyed her fantastic talent and performance... -- Kevin C, Lakeville, MN, 9/11/2010
• Sharon was just excellent. She really went the extra mile to provide just what we were looking for. I got many favorable comments from the people attending. I would highly recommend her! -- Pamela H, Shoreview, MN, 6/14/2010
• I asked Ms. Planer to play for my wedding ceremony and reception. Sharon was delight to work with. Her professionalism, adaptability and cooperation were excellent. We had to make several changes during the planing process and she was so good to adapt quickly and with ease. Sharon has outstanding talent and several of our wedding guests mentioned here piano-playing abilities. Her music made for a wonderful atmosphere and a wonderful day of memories. I would recommend her for any special event. Thank you! -- Taffy W, Lanesboro, MN, 6/5/2010
• We hired Sharon for our wedding reception. She was very accommodating, detail oriented and professional. She was timely, organized, and willing to work. We used her music as background entertainment for our cocktail hour and dinner. In my opinion it does not work well for prime or dance entertainment. I would recommend Sharon to others for their event with those thoughts in mind. -- Jenifer M, Maiden Rock, WI, 9/4/2010
• Sharon was incredible responsive. Her knowledge of music and willingness to provide suggestions, helped to make our special day extra wonderful. Sharon played for both the ceremony and cocktail hour. She did a fantastic job of catching the unique mood of each part of our wedding. -- Heidi S, Minneapolis, MN, 5/30/2010
• Sharon is a true professional! I would recommend her to any planner or bride! -- Lauren L, Minneapolis, MN, 5/29/2010
• I cannot say enough about Sharon and the fact that she added the perfect final touch to our Ladies High Tea! The music she chose to play was perfect for the occasion and she was flexible enough to adapt to "requests". I am not overstating when I say...she made the event! I not only will recommend her...but I can assure you we will be inviting her back! Note to Gigmasters: This is the second time we have used your organization and we could not be more pleased! Your members are professional, talented and easy to work with. Congrats and thank you to all of you! -- Barb F, Anoka, MN, 5/8/2010
• Sharon was fantastic through the entire process. My husband and I felt very comfortable that on our wedding day everything would go smoothly and as planned. I highly recommend Sharon as she is a very talented and professional artist and will make your wedding as beautiful as ours was. Thank you again Sharon, you helped make our day absolutely perfect. -- Leann G, Otsego, MN, 2/20/2010
• Sharon showed up early, played great, and was very professional. I did not have to worry about a thing, she did exactly what she said she would when she said she would do it. She was very easy to contact and work with. I can't say enough good things about her! -- Rick B, Minneapolis, MN, 2/4/2010
• Although it was a stormy afternoon, Sharon had everything set-up and was playing the piano when we arrived. Sharon is very pleasant to work with. She played beautifully. Everyone enjoyed the live piano music. -- Karen M, Minneapolis, MN, 12/8/2009
• We were very happy with Sharon. She was very accomodating to our request to stay longer. Our initial thought was that her hourly rate was a bit high compared to other pianists. However it was the holiday season and demand might drive those fees. She was on time and well orgaized. She responded promptly to booking and management contract communications. Our guests were all very pleased with her performance. -- Cindy H, Prior Lake, MN, 12/18/2009
• Sharon was absolutely amazing! She took our wedding reception to an entirely different level of class and elegance. I would recommend Sharon without hesitation to anyone looking for a talented, accomodating and professional pianist. Our wedding reception was a very formal affair and she worked with us to deveop the song list that perfectly reflected our style. In addition, we had two soloists who wanted to perform and without hesitation she offered her accompaniment. We wholeheartedly recommend using Sharon for any special event or celebration. -- Julie H, Saint Paul, MN, 10/23/2009
• Sharon is very professional and so easy to work with. We had weather issues and the event had to be moved indoors so Sharon had to set up her equipment twice. I had a lot of compliments everyone enjoyed her music. -- Lisa W, Saint Paul, MN, 10/3/2009
• Sharon was awesome, her selections were perfect. Everyone loved her -- Greg L, Minneapolis, MN, 9/22/2009
• Sharon was so perfect to work with. She is very talented and worked to make sure we were satisfied. She attended our rehearsal which was great too. -- Natasha W, Eden Prairie, MN, 9/6/2009
• Sharon was wonderful and she played beautifully. She was knowledgeable, easy to work with and seemed to know just what we had in mind for our wedding music.

Thank-you Sharon! -- Jennifer B, Eagan, MN, 8/28/2009

• Absolutely fabulous, marvelous. Would definitely recommend her for any size event and hope to be able to use her again in the future. -- Sherry G, Saint Paul, MN, 10/18/2008
• As the groom, I was only able to attend the last 15 minutes or so of our cocktail hour. However, all of our guests said that the piano music was a wonderful accompaniment to the event. We were very satisfied. Thanks for helping to make our wedding day wonderful! -- Stacey F, Minneapolis, MN, 9/20/2008
• Sharon did a very good job at this retirement party attended by almost 200 people. She was very professional and was very easy and polite to work with. She made extra careful efforts to ensure that the sound was good and effective and that she fit it just right with the locaton and event. Her booking was easy and she was very responsive to any questions or requests. I felt she represented real good value and I would definitely use her again. -- Neil S, Minneapolis, MN, 9/11/2008
• Sharon was a lovely and talented performer who picked up the mood of our special birthday luncheon and gave it her all! The guest of honor was thrilled and many in attendance commented on the magic that Sharon's music brought to the day. It was perfect and much appreciated! Vicki Bacal -- Vicki B, Minneapolis, MN, 8/13/2008
• Sharon responded promptly to all of our questions about her services for our wedding ceremony. We especially liked her approach to asking questions about our schedule so that she understood our priorities. Her questions prompted us to consider aspects of the ceremony that we had not thought about. She provided us with a lovely demo CD and was very accommodating of our special music requests and was happy to meet with us prior to the rehearsal date. -- Anne K, Minnetonka, MN, 8/8/2008
• Sharon did a beautiful job for our wedding. She was very flexible on the kind of music we wanted and had a lot of ideas for music if we were unsure as to what would work. She was also very open to accompaning my Aunt to a song which sounded great together! I would highly reccomend her for your wedding or event! -- Laura W, Saint Paul, MN, 7/5/2008
• Sharon went above and beyond to make sure her performance was exceptional. She offered to bring her electronic piano when she was concerned that an acoustic piano would be difficult to hear, and checked with our venue on her own to make sure they had a sound system. After playing for a few minutes, she recorded herself and walked throughout the room to make sure she was not playing over people's conversations. She stayed late to play until all the guests left. Sharon is a delight to work with and I would recommend her wholeheartedly! -- Krista J, Plymouth, MN, 6/29/2008
• Sharon Planer truly made our wedding reception a wonderful event. She played so beautifully and her song choices were so perfect - exactly what we had asked for, but really so much more than we ever expected. Sharon is such a nice person and was so great about keeping in touch with us before the reception and always answered our e-mails promptly. Her musicical talent is truly inspiring and our guests just loved her! She was a perfect addition to our special day, and we're so happy Sharon was able to share it with us.

• She did a great job and helped to make our party very special. -- Mark W, Edina, MN, 5/14/2007
• Sharon Planer is absolutely wonderful - a very talented, professional, detail-orientated pianist that added so much to our wedding event with her piano playing. She was incredibly accommodating and flexible to our requests by learning new songs which meant a great deal to us. She was also very organized and communicated with me before the event numerous times to ensure all details were covered (this was especially important as my event was outdoors). Without hesitation we recommend Sharon Planer to anyone looking to add some elegant polish, or just plain FUN, to any event. Sharon, thank you for sharing your talents and friendship! --Mary & Ken -- Mary D, Minneapolis, MN, 5/5/2007
• Sharon did an excellent job, and I would highly recommend her. Roxanne M. Peterson -- Roxanne P, Saint Paul, MN, 4/14/2007
• Sharon was wonderful! We asked Sharon to arrive at the party after many of the guests had arrived. She was great! She came right in, set up, and provided a wonderful atmosphere at my wedding reception. I did not have to worry about her performance the entire evening, it was beautiful. She played wonderful music that young and old could appreciate. She even inspired several of my guests to get up and dance. I would recommend her for any event. -- Erin M, Woodbury, MN, 2/16/2007
• Hiring Sharon was one of the best decisions that we made in regards to our event. She was prepared, organized, and professional. Her music was beautiful and we are still receiving comments regarding it several weeks after. She was so easy to work with and more than willing to assist us in anything that we needed. I have already given her name to other departments on campus, and we hope to hire her again ourselves. -- Kristin F, Saint Paul, MN, 9/20/2006
• Sharon’s performance was perfect! She arrived with plenty of time to set-up. She was extremely accommodating with special song requests and created a wonderful, unobtrusive atmosphere. I couldn’t have asked for more! -- Richard C, Bloomington, MN, 8/27/2006
• Sharon is extremely talented and accomodating and has fantastic communication skills. If you want to be able to depend on a pianist for your event - look no further, trust me. The following are just a few examples of Sharon being accomodating and a great communicator. Sharon proactively found a location to meet my fiance and I, and brought all of her equipement. She (and her equipment) traveled to meet with us or our vocalist on 3 different occassions. Without being requested, she went to find our reception location well in advance to ensure that she wouldn't be late day of the rehearsal and to review the layout (she even sought out and talked to the wedding planner while she was there to confirm her logistics for the evening of the event.) She emailed me with updates whenever she would meet with the vocalist or talk to our wedding planner. She had lots of ideas and options for beautiful music. We had many compliments on her beutiful work. You can count on Sharon to be professional and VERY easy to work with. She and her music were an absolutely wonderful addition to our wedding! -- Juli S, Shakopee, MN, 11/5/2005
• Sharon Planer was absolutely wonderful for our wedding! She provided me with a CD sampler of her music for weddings to help us choose just the right pieces. She also gave me many hints on creating a beautiful wedding program to hand out to our guests. Sharon's performance was professional and perfect in every way. She coordinated he cues ahead of time with our minister and played a beautiful prelude while our guests were being seated. I would highly recommend Pianist for Parties for your wedding or special event. -- Mary B, Minneapolis, MN, 12/11/2004
• Sharon played for our employee holiday party and provided wonderful music. The music was a great icebreaker and still allowed everyone to have conversations without raising their voices. Highly recommend Sharon for any event and if the occasion arises again, would plan on booking her. -- Wendy K, Minneapolis, MN, 12/3/2004
