• 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

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.

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. Laura and Charlie Maternus -- Laura G, Collegeville, MN, 6/27/2008

• Sharon was fabulous. She plays the piano beautifully. I didn't have to worry about a thing- she contacted the vocalists, the band, the officiant etc & worked out all the details with them! I would hire Sharon again & I would recommend that my friends & family use her for their upcoming events. -- Angela K, Saint Paul, MN, 12/31/2007
• Sharon was very nice and so easy to communicate with. I was very pleased with her professionalism and talent and would recommend her to everyone! Thanks again Sharon -- Jill S, Shakopee, MN, 10/5/2007
• Sharon was a wonderful pianist. We greatly appreciated her willingness to be so very accomodating with times, schedules, extra practices, etc. She met with our soloist extra times at no charge. That was so nice and so helpful. Sharon was great and a wonderful addition to the ceremony. -- Gail D, Brooklyn Park, MN, 9/8/2007
• Sharon played beautifully for our wedding reception. She arrived as scheduled and was very pleasant and professional. I would recommend her highly. -- Gail P, White Bear Lake, MN, 7/7/2007

• 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
