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 […]

Harp & Cello Duet for a Northern Indiana Wedding

On another hot and muggy Saturday in July, I was joined by a fabulous cellist (Earle Perez) to play for a wedding on a farm in Rolling Prairie, Indiana.  We always have so much fun working together, and the combination of harp and cello is both uncommon and uncommonly beautiful.  After we unloaded, we parked […]

The colors were orange and […]

Munster, Indiana Wedding Music

I’ve had beautiful weather for my outdoor wedding ceremonies this year!  A little hotter than last year, but not a single one has had to move inside.  On June 25th, I played for a ceremony on the terrace at Centennial Park in Munster, Indiana.  I was set up behind and a level higher than the guests, […]

Weddings in Mishawaka

It’s nice when my schedule works out to have two weddings directly across the street from one another on the same day!  The first ceremony was at Albright United Methodist Church in Mishawaka.  This is my beautiful Webster Laurel Leaf harp set up in the sanctuary: The only member of the bridal party was the […]

Castle in the Country & Mill Race Village Weddings

I can think of no better way to spend a Thursday evening than at a wedding!  It’s even better if the ceremony is at the Castle in the Country Bed & Breakfast in Allegan, Michigan.  It’s a peaceful setting, far away from crowds and busy roads.  Ceremonies are held on a deck overlooking a lake.  […]
