Harp Music at your Wedding by Cheyenne

For both religious and civil weddings music can be played at the following points of the ceremony: the arrival of the guests, the processional (bridal entry), the signing of the register, the recessional, and for the departure of guests. Additional wedding packages include options for music for up to two hours during your drinks reception or meal.

Some wedding testimonials:

“Thanks so much for your lovely playing at the wedding. It was mentioned to me by so many of the guests who said how beautiful it was.”
Trish

“I would be happy to recommend you to anyone I know, you were amazing and everyone was complimenting you. Thank you so much!”
Tracy

“A heartfelt thank you for playing at our wedding a few weeks ago. You truly created a beautiful atmosphere and it was so lovely to enter to the Botanics with your music and a lovely 'buzz' to the place. Your contribution was so integral to the atmosphere we wanted to create and I'm so pleased that you enjoyed taking part in our wedding. And, what a lovely day we had in the end! Thanks again for playing at our wedding and I'm sure we'll see you in the future. All the best, Kate”

“I just wanted to thank you so much for the beautiful music you played last week at our wedding. It really set the atmosphere in the church that we were hoping for. People warned me that I wouldn't remember much about the ceremony and a lot of it is a blur but I do remember the music and it was really perfect. I hope to be able to come and see you play in the future. Thanks again, Suzanne & Matt”
