Laurel is a beautiful harpist that has a breadth of songs that she knows. She's very helpful in guiding so on what to pick for when and giving suggestions. If I could give her more than 5 stars I would!

Laurel is an incredibly talented harpist with a great repertoire of all types of songs. She has samples on her website that you can pick from that helped me choose a song. I hired her for my proposal to my fiancé. It was on a rooftop in downtown Dallas. She was easy to communicate with via text and was promptly on time with no issues. Very affordable for a quick event like this only needing a few songs. We hope to include her in our wedding celebration as well. Highly Recommend for any event!

My wedding guest also enjoyed her performance and even cheered her on. I will definitely recommend her and will keep her in mind for any future celebration.

We Hired Laurel to play at our wedding. She played during the ceremony and for the cocktail hour. It was MAGICAL! I loved her music, and it felt very special walking down the aisle to the sound of her lovely Harp. She adjusted according to my walking speed so it flowed very well. Laurel was great about being in contact with me throughout the entire booking process. She even learned a song to play in honor of my grandmother. We highly recommend Laurel! :)

Response from the Vendor on 10/20/2020

She was perfect. I wanted a harpist for a little over a year to perform while I walked down the aisle. Super pleased. She sounded heavenly, and when I asked for her to be in formal wear, she didn’t blink. Easy to work with.

Laurel was fantastic to work with. She was prompt with her replies, open to suggestion, and a super talented harpist!!! We also made some last minute changes to our ceremony music and she made those adjustments for us without problem. We had Beatles themed ceremony music, canon, can’t help falling in love with you- we received so many compliments from our guests about the music. She even stayed afterwards and played while family were taking pictures! So talented! Five stars & A+++

I hired Laurel as a harpist for my wedding ceremony. We wanted to hire all small business owners for our wedding vendors and Laurel was good. She showed up on time and played for our wedding ceremony. It was an outdoor wedding (Dallas Arboretum) so it was hard to find musicians who would fit in a remote, garden setting. A harp was perfect for the setting and Laurel did well.

We booked her 6 months in advance and finalized details the week prior to our wedding, but she didn't show up. Had to download the wedding march on my iphone right before the wedding was supposed to start...

Laurel (harp) and Mary (flute) were amazing. Laurel met with us to go over music at her home and we were able to choose everything. She took the time to work with us and was so incredibly kind. We received so many compliments on the ceremony music - absolutely beautiful!

I have always loved performing, whether it is singing in choirs, musicals and operas, playing in orchestras and small ensembles, or playing for all kinds of events. Harp music adds so much to wedding ceremonies, and I'm pleased to have played such a special part in over 1000 weddings. Whether a lavish wedding or a simple ceremony, I enjoy making each one memorable with music that is meaningful for all who gather to share in your special day.
