Mackinac Island Wedding Music ~ Mission Point Resort
I first met Gina & Joe when they attended a harp concert I gave in March at the Chicago School of Hot Yoga. It was the perfect opportunity for them to hear the harp in person, and imagine how well it would fit in with their wedding plans! Although they both live in Chicago, they […]
South Bend Wedding Music ~ St. Paul’s Episcopal Church Ceremony
I loved working with Julia and her family to plan her wedding ceremony music! She was so sweet when we had our consultation to pick out the harp music for each element of the service, and just beautiful on her wedding day. The ceremony was held inside (fortunately – it was a hot day that […]
Winona Lake & Warsaw Wedding Harp Music
What’s better than a harpist at your wedding? How about two harpists at your wedding! The bride was moved to tears when she found out from her mom that there would be two harpists for the ceremony. For Shelli and Justin’s big day at the Hillside Amphitheatre on the shores of Winona Lake, we played […]
South Bend Wedding Music ~ Harpist for Wedding Ceremonies
Jami planned her wedding music well in advance – she booked in the summer of 2009! It was a good thing for her that she did, since June 11th has been one of my most requested dates this year. I turned down more than twenty weddings for that Saturday! Even if the planning timelines and […]
Valparaiso Wedding Music ~ Taltree Arboretum Wedding Harpist
June 11th, 2011, was a very popular date for weddings! My first was at noon outside of Valparaiso, IN, at Taltree Arboretum. They have a beautiful setting for weddings at their pavilion by the lake. There is a lawn for outdoor ceremonies, but the pavilion is large enough to accommodate all of the guests if […]
Springfield IL Wedding Music | Villa Maria & State House Inn Wedding
Out at Villa Maria on Lake Springfield, the cicadas were thick! The outdoor wedding ceremony went ahead as planned anyway, and the guests just kept brushing them off. The maid of honor had to keep a close watch on the bride’s veil – the giant bugs seemed to like it! When I arrived (extra early, as […]
Chicago Harpist | Joliet Wedding Music at Pilcher Park
Deanna planned a beautiful ceremony at the gazebo in Joliet’s Pilcher Park for Saturday, June 4th. The rain held off, but it was hot! Fortunately, the gazebo provided shade for the harp and harpist. Guests waited under the trees until the ceremony was ready to begin, so they didn’t have to sit in the sun, […]
Southwest Michigan Wedding Music | Fernwood Botanic Gardens Harpist
It was a busy Friday afternoon at the Fernwood Botanic Garden. When I arrived to set up, there was a wedding rehearsal concluding, and two more scheduled for later that evening! Fortunately, we were all blessed with perfect weather. While I was tuning, the groom and groomsmen wandered over, and had lots of questions to ask […]
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 […]
Southwest Michigan Harpist ~ St. Joseph Wedding Ceremony
On a Sunday afternoon in May, I provided harp music for a wedding at the John E.N. Howard Bandshell in Lake Bluff Park. This wedding and concert venue is just a short distance away from St. Joseph’s Silver Beach, where I had an exceptionally windy wedding ceremony last fall! The bride & groom had a back-up plan […]
