The harp is simply the perfect instrument to accompany a wedding. It creates the ultimate ambiance of romance. I am privileged to have been invited to participate in the weddings and celebrations of hundreds of couples. I would be most honored to be a part of yours. Consider my services for your:
I always strive to make each couples’ experience and musical program unique and true to their personalities. My wedding package includes a private consultation that will give you the opportunity to hear the harp firsthand. In the case of destination weddings, this consultation can be done via Skype or FaceTime. Together we will discuss the vision for your wedding and your musical preferences and options. Traditional couples will delight in hearing time-honored wedding songs made even more lovely by the delicate sound of the harp. Those who prefer contemporary music will have my vast and ever-expanding repertoire of modern hits, classic rock, alternative, and vintage standards from which to choose. I always relish the opportunity to learn new music, so special requests are welcomed!
A typical wedding ceremony includes 30 minutes of prelude music played to set the mood
as
guests
arrive, all processional music required for the wedding party, the recessional (exit
song),
and
a short postlude as guests depart the ceremony space. There may also be music throughout
the
service as well, such as during the lighting of a unity candle or sand ceremony. The
couple
may
also request a special song to be played that is important to them or that evokes the
memory
of
those that cannot be with them on their special day.

For most events I perform on my Concert Grand Pedal Harp. However, the complicated inner workings of this harp are particularly susceptible to the damaging effects of the sand and salt on the beach. For beach weddings I perform on my Lever Harp. This harp has a closed base and a much simpler mechanism that is not as sensitive to the elements. My Lever Harp has a lovely sound, slightly more Celtic in nature, and slightly softer than my Pedal Harp, but with plenty of tone and volume to make an impact on your beach wedding ceremony.
In our beautiful state of Florida, beach weddings are a popular choice for both local and destination couples alike. I am happy to provide you with ceremony music for your beach wedding with a few restrictions.
Not all of my repertoire is available for beach weddings due to the fact that the Lever harp is smaller and limited in range. I have provided a separate beach repertoire list for your convenience with plenty of traditional and modern songs from which to choose.
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. Amplification for large group events or restaurant atmospheres can be provided. The elegant ambiance created by the harp is second to none. It’s an excellent choice of background music for:
I believe that I have a unique style and surprisingly modern repertoire that sets me apart. I specialize in popular music of all genres, including classic rock, alternative, and contemporary pop. The harp has a rare beauty that will fascinate your guests, and the unexpected music selections will complete the Wow Factor.
It’s the most wonderful time of the year! There is no better way to celebrate the season than an elegant harp playing treasured holiday music. My Holiday Repertoire includes everything from Renaissance carols, to vintage tunes, to pop hits. Whether you are hosting an intimate dinner for friends and family, or throwing a grand celebration for hundreds, I will delight your guests with all their favorite Christmas songs.
Harp music is ideal for such solemn occasions. Its comforting and peaceful resonance lifts and soothes the spirits of grieving loved ones. You may request special songs or leave it to me to provide appropriate and beautiful music.
