Paul & Cameron Irving
Cameron and I wanted to thank you so much for the music you played at our wedding - you were absolutely phenomenal and so many people talked fondly of you afterwards. An additional thanks is for taking the time to learn the Coldplay tune for when Cameron arrived - it meant the world to both of us. Thank you for being a huge element to what was a day to be cherished forever in our lives. We will gladly recommend you to friends and family.

Can you play my favourite song?
Lizzie is very happy to take requests in advance. It does depend slightly on the piece of music, but most songs can be adapted for the harp.
Do you need anything at the venue?
Lizzie will bring a seat with her, and only needs to be provided with a parking space with easy access, and soft drinks.
How much time to you need to set up?
Lizzie will arrive at the venue at least an hour before she is due to play, in order to move and unpack the harp and then tune it.
Do you play outside?
Lizzie does not usually perform outside due to risks to her instrument, but she does have a smaller harp to use for outdoor events. If the event is outside, overhead cover (something more substantial than an umbrella) must be provided to protect the instrument from direct sunlight or sudden rain.
