Aysha was amazing on our wedding day! She really elevated our event with her presentation ie how she dressed and her harp is gorgeous as well as how she played. I loved listening to her as I find it transcendent! Communication before the wedd...

Aysha played our wedding ceremony and the following cocktail hour. To say she was a highlight would be an understatement. She was professional, flexible, and very easy to work with. She helped us pick out our songs during the ceremony and playe...

d a beautiful wedding selection before and after. My only regret is that I couldn’t sit down and listen to her play for longer like the rest of my guests. We would not hesitate to hire Aysha for another event. While we don’t plan on getting married again, I told my wife to book Aysha for my funeral. Thanks for making a special day magical!

I first met Aysha as colleagues, and over the years I've worked with her, she has been one of the most capable, meticulous, reliable people I've ever met. When I asked her to play at my ceremony, she brought a whole new level of professionalism...

to the table. Her incredible wealth of knowledge from all her professional experiences over the years was very apparent, and she was so easy to work with. She guided us through the whole process -- including preparing a setlist for us to vet, figuring out the appropriate schedule / layout / dress code, learning two brand-new pieces (which she transcribed for harp herself after I gave her the original non-harp recordings), and more. Her professionalism extends to her playing, which is only matched by her world-class skill at the harp. For example, unrehearsed things were bound to happen, and she handled them all impeccably. Her harp music was the absolute perfect, elegant, beautiful -- and as an added bonus, stress-free! -- touch to our ceremony, and if I could do it all again, I wouldn't have it any other way.
