Central Illinois Harpist ~ Wedding Music at Lincoln Park, Springfield

The bridge in Springfield’s Lincoln Park is a beautiful location for a wedding ceremony.  It is quietly nestled away from the rest of the park and can provide a beautiful backdrop for a wedding as it did for Tracey and Justin’s ceremony. As the guests arrived, I played several pieces from both classical and popular […]

Wedding Music in South Bend ~ Ceremony at Pine Creek Church of the Brethren

The most interesting part about this wedding for me was that the bride’s mom and step-dad, who happened to be the officiant, were pleasantly surprised that the bride picked harp music for the wedding.  The most comical part had to be some of the things that the flower girl decided to say!  During my wedding […]
