The harp is an ideal musical entertainment for events, celebrations, and venues of all kinds. Its rare
beauty and ethereal sound captivates all who hear it. Taylor has been delighting audiences with her
music for 25 years. Her charming personality, elegant appearance, and extensive repertoire add warmth

Taylor has a unique style and surprisingly modern repertoire that sets her apart. She is a lover and
performer of all types of music, and she specializes in performing popular songs that most people would
not expect to hear on a harp. Taylor strives to break the stereotype that the harp is a purely classical
instrument, and is constantly inspired by musical genres like classic rock, alternative, film music, and
chart-topping hits from the artists of today. You choose a harpist to experience the stunning
instrument, the lovely sound quality and beautiful music. You choose Taylor when you are seeking a
seasoned professional musician and unexpected music selections will take that Wow Factor to the next
level.
Consider Taylor for your next special event, wedding celebrations, or for background music to elevate the atmosphere of your restaurant or hotel.
A typical wedding ceremony includes 30 minutes of prelude music while the guests are arriving and being
seated, processional music for both the bridesmaids and the bride, and a recessional or exit song. Often
there may be music throughout the service as well such as at the lighting of a unity candle or a sand
ceremony. The bride and groom may also want a song that is special to them to be performed during the
wedding ceremony.
Please refer to the Repertoire page to find a complete list of both Traditional
and Contemporary selections from which to choose. Taylor is constantly adding to her collection of music
and invites you to feel free to request any song that is especially important to you.
Taylor's wedding services also include a private live-performance consultation. She invites her clients
into her home to hear the harp in person and to provide seasoned advice as to the best way to plan the
program for their wedding music. Couples are encouraged to bring along family or wedding party members.
In the case of Destination Weddings, this consultation can be done via Skype or FaceTime.
The beautiful sound of the harp is the perfect complement to any event. The harp’s elegance and gentle, soothing tones make it perfect for background music that allows for easy conversation during your special event.
The harp is simply the perfect instrument to accompany a wedding ceremony. Whether the occasion will be large or small, formal or casual, indoor or outdoor, Taylor has the ability to create the perfect program of wedding music that you have always envisioned. Traditional brides will delight in hearing their favorite wedding songs made even more lovely by the delicate sound of the harp.

When most people think of the harp, they imagine a delicate instrument that would be difficult to hear over a crowd. Actually, the harp is quite powerful; it puts forth enough sound to create a pleasant atmosphere without being intrusive. Because of this, the harp is excellent for background music at almost any event. The harp lends itself well to both private and business environments. Whether you’re planning a large corporate function or a small gathering of friends, the harp will provide just the right ambience. Taylor’s long career has included occasions such as birthday and anniversary celebrations, wedding receptions, baby and wedding showers, dinners, and holiday parties.
Throughout history, the harp has been recognized as the musical instrument of Angels. Therefore, it is not surprising that the harp is the perfect musical complement to sacred occasions. For example, the sweet and soothing sounds of the harp can provide a comforting atmosphere at a loved one’s memorial service. The harp is often used during religious ceremonies. Taylor has performed both as a solo artist and as choir accompaniment. She is particularly experienced performing during Christmas and Easter celebration services, as well as other special occasion services.
