Elkhart Wedding Harpist ~ Zion Lutheran, Bristol
For a February wedding, Kirsti & David had a beautiful afternoon with clear blue skies – and just enough snow on the ground to remind everyone that it was still winter! Planning from California for an Indiana wedding was a bit of a challenge, but she had local friends assisting, and we were able to […]
South Bend Harpist ~ Tippecanoe Place Wedding
I had two weddings this January – one on a beach in Miami, one in snowy South Bend! Winter weddings pose some challenges for planning, but if you aren’t afraid of the cold, it’s a great time to get married! The lighting for pictures is better, you will have your pick of vendors without competition […]
Northern Indiana Harpist ~ Goshen College Wedding
I love December weddings! My last wedding ceremony of the year was on December 19th – a Sunday afternoon. When all of the students have left for the semester, college campuses are so peaceful, and even more so when they are covered with a light blanket of snow. This ceremony was held in Rieth Recital Hall […]
Southwest Michigan Wedding Harpist ~ St. Mary’s Catholic, Niles, MI
Out of all my December weddings this year, this was the only one that wanted Christmas music! I had been working with the mother of the bride primarily, and her goal was to incorporate her family’s Irish heritage into a traditional Polish-style wedding. There isn’t a better way to do that than with the music of […]
New Paris Wedding Harp Music | Maple Grove Church of the Brethren
December is usually a slower month for weddings, so I always enjoy having at least a couple to play in the midst of all the Christmas parties. This wedding took place in New Paris, in the heart of Northern Indiana’s Amish country. Yes, I saw several buggies on the way there & back! When I met with the […]
Valparaiso Wedding Music ~ Valparaiso University Chapel of the Resurrection
Another beautiful fall day, and a beautiful setting for a wedding in the Valparaiso University Chapel. I graduated from VU with my music degree in 2001 (and Master’s in 2005), and it is always such a pleasure to get back on campus! The maid of honor for this wedding was also a harpist, and recommended […]
Fort Wayne Harpist | Allen County Courthouse Wedding
On September 25th, I got to play for a wedding ceremony in the Allen County Courthouse in Fort Wayne, Indiana. It was modeled after the Statehouse in Indianapolis, where I provided harp music for a wedding last March. Great acoustics again! To create a backdrop for the ceremony, they had a fabric drape in the wedding […]
South Bend Wedding Music
I had the wonderful pleasure of providing harp music for Brian and Trisha’s August 14th wedding ceremony and reception. The ceremony was held in the Holy Family Catholic Church in South Bend. I worked with the church’s organist and a vocal soloist, and loved being able to listen to them during the service! The prelude […]
Chicago Wedding Harpist – Navy Pier Crystal Gardens
Braving the traffic for Lollapalooza (which turned out not bad at all), I headed into downtown Chicago for a Friday evening wedding ceremony. It took place in the Crystal Gardens at Navy Pier – a stunning venue! Usually, downtown Chicago weddings are a logistical nightmare, with parking blocks away, no loading zone, etc., but Navy Pier […]
Wedding Harpist in Bloomington, Indiana
Another hot Indiana weekend, another harp duet ceremony. At least this one was in an air conditioned church! We loaded up the harps and headed into Bloomington, Indiana, to play for a wedding at the First United Methodist Church. It was a pleasure to work with the resident organist, and we alternated music for the […]
