Mr & Mrs Fowler, Wedding Event, London
The London Harpist played through our wedding breakfast for a whole couple of hours and to absolute perfection until the end. Playing a range from tradtional classical music to modern day classics creating a delightful ambiance for our meal and certainly made our day feel extra special giving it that wow factor. The London Harpist was extremely professional, super quick to respond with any of of our questions and even learnt a song not part of her repertoire. The well deserved magnitude of an applause from our guests said it all. I would recommend both The London Harpist and Warble highly.
Debbie & Oz, Wedding, New Hall Hotel, Sutton Coldfield
Hi London Harpist! Huge thanks for being such a fabulous harpist on our wedding day! We truly appreciate all of your hard work arranging the two pieces we requested,particularly as they weren't your typical choices for a wedding day! You gave us the perfect ceremony, and if you'd have seen the faces of our guests when you played Enter Sandman for the signing of the register, you would have seen the 'wow' factor you gave our day!The general words that were mouthed were 'awesome' and 'yeah' and there were a lot of big cheesy grins! Many of our guests have said how beautifully you played, and they were impressed by your immense repertoire. My mom still cant stop talking about you, and Simon, our photographer thought you were legendary! We cant wait to see the video, so that we can hear it all again, as you were spectacular! You made our day extra special, and we cant thank you enough!
Adrian and Sarah, Brighton
Sarah and I just wanted to say thank you so much for playing at our wedding. You did an absolutely fabulous job and all our guests commented on how good you were. If you want I am very happy to recommend you to any of our friends getting married in the next year.
Rome and Steve, Henley-on-Thames
Just a quick message to thank you so much for playing at our wedding. The harp was the perfect instrument to play at the barn and the music was fantastic. Everyone commented on how it complemented the wedding. We would definitely recommend you to our friends if any of them decide to get married and would like a harpist! Thank you again.
Jess and Roy, Pembroke Lodge, Richmond Park
I found The London Harpist after we had contacted various other harpists in the area who were either over our budget or didn’t have a good repertoire of harp music. From the start, The London Harpist was absolutely fantastic – she was professional at all times and when I was worried about my walking in music, she’d offered to send me a first draft MP3 recording of the music to put my mind at ease. Throughout the rest of the year, The London Harpist had kept in contact with me and even went to the trouble of recording final versions of my walking in AND walking out music on MP3 so that I had the final recordings to keep forever and I knew exactly what was going to be played. This she had done with absolutely no complaints and at midnight. For the effort The London Harpist put in to making it absolutely perfect for us, it was more than we could ever asked for and I would highly recommend her for weddings. Thank you, The London Harpist, for making our special day just that extra bit more special!
Maya Currell, Thremhall Park
The London Harpist, real life harpist extraordinaire, added class and sophistication to our charity ball, so thank you very much - and the charity-friendly rate was also much appreciated.
The London Harpist was the resident harpist at the Spitz Bistro in Spitalfields, East London, for several years.
She has played at numerous weddings and functions, for clients including the charity Cancer Research UK.
The London Harpist is happy to play at weddings – either religious or non-religious - and can provide music before, during and after the ceremony, including reception drinks and dinner.
She is willing to tackle most requests, especially more unconventional choices - recent requests range from Metallica to Morecambe & Wise.
