St. Louis Harpist ~ Harp & Singer for a Wedding Ceremony

What a beautiful venue!  Mike and Ginger had 60-degree temperatures for their December ceremony.  Inside, however, the refurbished church was lit with soft blue lights, draped in white, and looked like a winter wonderland.  The Christmas trees on the stage completed the look! The Main Street Abbey in Columbia, Illinois, was the setting for both […]

Memphis Harpist & Violinist {Wedding at Hunt Phelan}

Another Thanksgiving weekend wedding!  This time a harp and violin duet at the beautiful Hunt Phelan Mansion in Memphis, Tennessee. Guests arrived through the front doors of the mansion, to the sounds of solo violin.  As they made their way to the heated courtyard tent where the ceremony was taking place, they were greeted with […]

Central Illinois Wedding Music ~ Ceremony at Hamilton’s 110 North East

Andrea and Phillip were married on Black Friday at Hamilton’s 110 Northeast.  A much better way to spend the day than with the crowds out shopping!  Their ceremony was in the Fireside Room, followed by the reception in the South Ballroom. As guests arrived, I played a selection of Beatles and other popular songs of […]

Champaign-Urbana Wedding Music ~ Pear Tree Estate

Pear Tree Estate is a beautiful venue just outside of Champaign, Illinois.  With large windows, you can be in the comfort of the indoors, but still see the glow of the fall colors everywhere you look! Small world – the bride’s father used to have the mail route that included my parents’ house in Jacksonville!  […]

Harpist in Cleveland {Wedding in Middleburg Heights}

It’s never too late to book a harpist for your wedding!  Brenda contacted me one week before her wedding date, and although I had a reception booked that evening, I had the morning open!  It was a last-minute addition the celebration, but her husband-to-be loves harp music, so it was something we made happen! They […]

Wedding at Pere Marquette ~ St. Louis Harp, Violin, & Cello Trio

This was supposed to be my final outdoor wedding of 2018, but temperatures in the low 50s moved the ceremony indoors.  Much cozier by the fireplace at Pere Marquette!  Close to St. Louis, it still feels a world away, and has beautiful views of the woods and the river. The bride and groom booked not […]

Indianapolis Harpist {Wedding at Union Station}

What a grand and elegant venue for a wedding!  Stephanie and Rayton were married in the historic Union Station in downtown Indianapolis, conveniently attached to the Crowne Plaza hotel.  Guests who stayed there could even have a room in a converted train car! The ceremony took place in the grand hall, and harp music greeted […]

Central Illinois Harpist – Wedding at Piper Glen

Although the wedding was originally planned to be outdoor at Piper Glen Golf Club, a week of heavy rain, with more thunderstorms forecast for Saturday, moved the ceremony inside the tent where the reception was held. The ground was so soggy, the chairs couldn’t even be set up without sinking!  Fortunately, the tent was beautiful […]

St. Louis Harpist {Lemp Grand Hall Wedding}

I loved working with Cece and Alex on their wedding music!  Both bride and groom were involved in the planning from the start.  They had a lovely, heartfelt ceremony at the Lemp Loft in St. Louis, conducted by the groom’s uncle.  The bride’s great-aunt, who had just celebrated her 99th birthday, was even in attendance! […]

Macon Missouri Harpist – Wedding at Emerson Fields

It is always exciting to play for a wedding at a new venue!  Emerson Fields, located just south of Macon in Excello, Missouri, combines the best of a rustic barn feeling with modern conveniences.  They have done an excellent job creating a beautiful, country space for couples to come from all over Missouri! Bailey and […]
