A non-refundable deposit and a signed contract are required to book my services. The remaining balance is due two weeks before the event date.

How early do you arrive?
I arrive between 30-45 mn in advance to set up my instrument.

Do you offer other combinations besides solo harp?
Yes, I also have a fabulous saxophone and harp duo. We play an mixture of light jazz and popular tunes. Traditional classical music can also be requested. Feel free to browse my Samples page for audio clips.

What are your outdoor requirements?
An alternate rain-site, a flat surface other than dirt or grass on which to place the harp, and a shaded and waterproof covering. Outdoor temperatures should be between 60 and 95 degrees.

WEDDING PLANNING
What music do I need for the ceremony?
I discuss this in detail with my clients to tailor each ceremony to their particular needs. The size of the bridal party and the venue are important considerations when choosing ceremony music.

When do you start the music for the ceremony?
I bring the prelude to a close and start the ceremony music at your wedding coordinator’s signal. This is arranged beforehand between myself and your coordinator (or designated person) when I arrive early to set up.

Do you play for the cocktail hour and reception as well?
Absolutely. I maintain an extensive repertoire of popular melodies, jazz, and classical works. For more variety, consider solo harp during the ceremony and saxophone/harp for the cocktail hour.
