Michigan City Harpist ~ Blue Chip Casino Wedding Ceremony
I first met Debbie at a Bridal Expo last October in Merrillville, Indiana, and was excited to play for her Memorial Day weekend ceremony in Michigan City. Both the ceremony and reception were held at the Blue Chip Casino. Yes, you can have a traditional wedding there without blackjack tables or slot machines in the […]
South Bend Wedding Music ~ St. Mary’s College Harpist
I had been looking forward to this wedding ever since Caitlin told me that she had a vintage English garden theme (her fiancé and his family had spent several years in England), and was encouraging all of her guests to wear hats and fascinators. I was glad to have the opportunity to break out my […]
St. Louis Harpist | Forest Park Jewel Box Wedding
The Jewel Box in St. Louis’ Forest Park is the perfect place to have the feel of an outdoor wedding, without the worries about the weather! The greenhouse was filled with hydrangeas, and was a lovely setting for the wedding of Dara and Kevin. The prelude as guests arrived was performed entirely by African drummers […]
Fort Wayne Harpist | Allen County Courthouse Wedding & Reception
The Allen County Courthouse in Fort Wayne is an amazing venue for your wedding ceremony and reception. Unfortunately, I forgot to bring my camera with me to my May 14th wedding, so if you want to see pictures of the inside, you’ll have to check out my blog post from a wedding I played there […]
Southwest Michigan Wedding Music – Centre Meeting House Wedding Harpist
Over the course of our time playing harp professionally in Southwest Michigan, I have had the chance to play at the Centre Meeting House (formerly Morris Farms) several times. My most recent wedding there was on May 14th and I was amazed as to how Michaelangelo’s had transformed the chapel for this wedding ceremony. The […]
Chicago Wedding Music ~ Itasca Country Club Wedding Harpist
Sarah and James planned for an outdoor wedding ceremony, but the rain that threatened throughout the day pushed the ceremony inside. Both the ceremony and reception took place at the Itasca Country Club in Itasca, Illinois. Fortunately, they have a beautiful room overlooking the golf course that they had set up for the ceremony. It’s […]
Northwest Indiana Harpist ~ Merrillville Vow Renewal Ceremony
Since I play so many weddings, vow renewal ceremonies are a special treat. This one was for a couple who has been married for thirty years, and chose to renew their vows in front of a large group of family and friends at the Indiana Operating Engineers Hall in Merrillville, Indiana. Most vow renewal ceremonies […]
Champaign Illinois Harpist ~ Wedding Music
April 16th was to have been my first outdoor wedding ceremony of the year, but strong winds, dropping temperatures and rain forced the event inside. When you are planning an outdoor wedding, you have to be flexible – and have a solid back-up plan! The Plan B for this wedding was an indoor location at […]
Ludington Michigan Harpist ~ Cornerstone Baptist Wedding
On a beautiful March day, I headed to the shores of Lake Michigan – for a wedding, of course! The wedding ceremony was held at the Cornerstone Baptist Church in Ludington, MI. During the summer, this is a busy lakeside town, but it is much more relaxed and peaceful when there is still some snow on the […]
Chicago Wedding Harpist ~ Lord of Life Lutheran Wedding Ceremony
It’s the middle of March, and wedding season started early this year. Once it gets going, I stay busy until November! Elizabeth and Kurt had a beautiful day, and I was so pleased to be a part of it. They had a traditional Lutheran ceremony at Lord of Life Lutheran Church in Darien, IL. The pastor […]
