“Now that the wedding and honeymoon are over things have slowed down enough for me to take the time to express my gratitude to you for playing at my wedding, my guests were awestruck over your enchantingly elegant music. The day went by so fast but there are two moments I distinctly remember pertaining to you playing, one is standing outside the doors waiting to walk down the aisle and hearing you playing inside the ballroom, I instantly got goosebumps as I realized this is happening at my wedding. Walking down the aisle to you playing, I felt like I was floating in a dream, so beautiful it caressed my soul. A real life fairy tale. Then during dinner I got to hear you play again, I remember being frozen in my seat just staring at you, totally captivated listening and watching you so gracefully strum the strings. Words simply can not express how your musical talents affect people. I am truly blessed to have been able to have you play at my wedding, it was an experience my guests and I will never forget.”

Devon was fantastic! The ceremony was beautiful and I cannot imagine it being so lovely without the fantastic tone set by Devon’s playing. I was a bit hesitant at first to choose one instrument instead of a quartet but I quickly discovered that the harp filled the whole room with rich sound that gave me the vintage, romantic, and unique atmosphere that I wanted for my wedding day. I received many compliments on our music selections and her repertoire included so many songs that she could adapt to any couple’s style. Her personality matched her lovely sound and you will not regret choosing her!”

Devon was amazing!! She was my favorite vendor and the music was gorgeous and the perfect background for our wedding ceremony. She was very organized and easy to work with–these aspects really stood out among our other vendors. She is also super responsive by email and has a very streamlined electronic process that made things easy to get set up from afar (our wedding was in Davenport but we planned it from Seattle). Nothing but great things to say and would recommend very highly! Our guests loved her, too!”
