Instrumental music was non-negotiable for me at my wedding. Emily came recommend by my planner Julia Stone and I am so happy with my decision. Emily has a vast catalog to choose from but not only that, if there is a song you would like performed she works with you to make it happen! My guests kept commenting throughout the evening how the instrumental music added the love in the air feeling of the day.

Emily was absolutely amazing, and the violinist we had hired through her as well! She made the process so simple and I honestly didn’t have to worry about them at all!
My guest loved the way they sounded and they played me down the isle beautifully.
Thank you for making my day exactly what I wanted. You were worth every penny!

Emily is such a sweet person, and was so easy to work with! She was punctual and played so well. We received a lot of compliments from our wedding guests. I am so glad I chose to have a harpist play at my wedding. She also agreed to play a song that was not on the original list we picked. Not to mention, the harp itself was a beautiful statement piece! thank you Emily!!

I found Emily on this website The Knot as a wedding gift for my younger cousin and his bride’s wedding and she was amazing. Very professional she replied back to emails promptly, very reasonable for her services. I would definitely pick Emily again for an event. She had a great selections of music as well as let the bride customize her selections.

Emily did a beautiful job at our small wedding ceremony! It perfectly matched our outdoor garden setting. We chose most of the songs we wanted from her list, but she learned to play two songs that are special to us (one that I never heard of on the harp and one that was even better than the versions we heard on YT). Highly recommend booking her for your wedding! She's amazing!

Emily is AMAZING! She played the harp for my girlfriend and I on valentines day. She went along with the plan to surprise her and played the harp FLAWLESSLY. She even learned (3) songs I requested. Hire her for any of your harpist needs.

Emily is 100% the best! She learned Rhapsody on a Theme by Paganini for my wedding, and it sounded SO beautiful as I was walking down the aisle - really the perfect musical complement for our ceremony. She also played a variety of other classical and pop songs when people were being seated and during the procession. Emily and her harp looked so elegant at the front of the ceremony - really the perfect touch. We couldn't be happier and highly, highly recommend her.

Emily did a wonderful job playing at our wedding, it was exactly what I had hoped for. She was very quick to respond when I had any questions, and happy to help. I also asked her for a clip of her song that was not online and she sent that over very quickly and was open to any changes I asked for. I would definitely recommend Emily to anyone looking for a harpist for their wedding/event.

She will work with you on your specific needs regarding music selection, timing, and budget. She was super friendly and responsive to any communication we had.

I cannot say enough great things about Emily Klein!!! She played the harp and had a violinist play along with her at my wedding on April 14th, 2017. She was a joy to work with from our first contact. I really appreciate that she made every effort to accommodate us. Our guests were very impressed and still talk about how beautiful the music was at our wedding ceremony. Emily and her team are truly amazing and we are so blessed to have had her on our wedding day. I would only recommend Emily Klein as your Harpist. Her music is absolutely breathtaking!!!

After following Emily's career as she performs with the Houston Symphony, Opera in the Heights, Houston Methodist's Crain Garden Series, her own chamber ensemble inFLUX, Music for Autism concerts, and house concerts; there was no doubt that my husband and I were going to hire her to be a part of our wedding ceremony!! She offered incredible music selections that we loved! I even walked down the aisle to one of them! From her talent, to her knowledge of the repertoire, to her trustworthiness in the quality of music she offers, you will forever be thankful for your decision to have her beautiful harp music a part of your wedding day. We are still reminiscing in the musical moments she created. Thanks so much, Emily!!

I am so thankful to have Emily at my wedding this past May!! Wedding planning was pretty crazy and I definitely stressed over too many things, but music was one area where I got to sit back and relax. If you have Emily like I did, you are in good hands! She is very professional and knowledgable. At first I gave her my program with little direction. She was prompt in initiating conversation to understand my need, guided me through the process and picked all the songs for us. The day turned out beautifully! We received lots of compliments for Emily's music. She is also just a super sweet and pleasant person to be around!

I cannot recommend Emily highly enough!! She was great to work with and played beautifully. She recommended music and helped me pick the perfect song for when I walked down the aisle. The quality of her music was so fantastic and it really made our ceremony special. Many of our guests commented on how unique it was to have a harpist and how awesome she sounded. Also a plus is that she is very friendly and reliable.

Emily is a fantastic harpist. I highly recommend her for any sort of performance venue - wedding, private party, corporate event, etc. She is extremely professional and her musical ability is on par with a superior symphony hall musician. Emily is very talented and poised. Her sound is clear and brilliant. She easily deserves five stars!
