Anne was absolutely amazing! I couldn't have imagined how beautiful her music was. Walking down the aisle to her playing "Perfect" by Ed Sheeran was magical! Thank you Anne!
We hired Anne for our wedding in May 2022 after coming across some videos of her work on our search for a local harpist. We loved her engaging performance style, bright smile, and ...
how beautiful she made both classic as well as contemporary music of all styles sound on the harp.
We could not have been happier with our decision. She was responsive and easy to work with leading up to the wedding. Walking down the aisle to her lovely live harp music was the stuff of dreams. Our guests commented on how fun it was to hear popular songs played on the harp during our reception. It was a perfect classy but fun vibe! We cannot recommend Anne enough for your wedding or other event.
We had the great fortune of having Ann perform at our Wedding at St. John's Church in the Marshall Gold Discovery Center in Coloma. My Bride's nephew, William Hutchens, who lives ...
in Reno sang, "A Time For Us", during the ceremony. He love's to sing, and probably be interested in performing at future weddings with Anne. You can't go wrong, and it is well worth the additional cost of having a musician with the caliber of Anne perform at your wedding.
It was a true pleasure working with Anne for our wedding ceremony! Anne has such a wide range of songs that she plays and she does so beautifully! Several guests noted how great it...

ally helpful insight on how to select music for our ceremony and cocktail hour. I had so many guests come up to me excited about how they could recognize the songs we selected and as I walked down the aisle, it really felt like I was in a dream! Anne's music provided so much to the atmosphere and setting and her attire was perfect too. Thank you Anne for helping make our special day so amazing!
Anne is sensational to say the least, professional and plays angelically. We requested the wedding march for our then upcoming wedding ceremony and after a very difficult year, the...
sounds that she played were not only refreshing but inspiring. Very, very highly recommended, this is a promise I personally make to you. Pure perfection!

nately all our other wedding vendors did as well except for one vendor despite this unprecedented calamity. Anne Roos was completely thorough, reliable and trustworthy!
Anne was absolutely amazing at our wedding. We first met her at another friends wedding and wanting something different than a boring DJ. So we decided to hire Anne!
She was able...
to play songs from our list of “our songs” that we’ve played over the years and was able to make our day so special and unique. All of our guests told us as well how beautiful it was to listen to the harp and eat brunch and watch the river flow by. I could see her playing in any setting, by a pond, in a field, by the river, in a cabin, a church or on the beach. Anne was absolutely so sweet and professional as well as beautiful and timeless at our wedding and I can’t wait to hire her again for our next special event!
We hired Anne for our wedding ceremony not only was she timely but extremely professional. She played the songs that fit perfectly with our theme. I requested two songs and they we...
re played perfectly. She looked elegant in one of her ‘signature hats’. We are forever grateful for her kindness and for traveling to the Bay Area to perform.

My family has known Anne for many years & when I got engaged my dad insisted we book her for my wedding. Before we even got to talking about music Anne spent several hours on the p...
hone with me, giving me venues and caterers to check out and other people to ask after. She is a wedding professional and a joy to talk to. She gave me so much advice about having a wedding in the Reno-Tahoe area that I never would've otherwise gotten.
Her playlist is beyond expansive. I was so excited that our song was in her repertoire (I Will Follow You Into the Dark) as it's not a traditional wedding song. It sounded so beautiful as she played it behind our ceremony. Being two millennials getting hitched we also loved her playing of I'll be There for You from FRIENDS for our processional and the Game of Thrones theme song for our recessional. The GOT song got a lot of recognition and admiration. It's a moment I won't soon forget.
Anne was always easy to contact and encouraged me to ask any and all questions I needed to. Which I did! She's a professional 100% of the way. So many of my friends and relatives relayed their amazement at her musical ability to me and my husband. I chose mostly popular love songs from the last couple of decades for her to play during our cocktail hour. My favorites were Come What May, Killing Me Softly and God Only Knows. Anne was a joy to have on our special day. To make your wedding ever more memorable, hire this extraordinary musician.
Anne is so wonderful! As soon as I started looking at wedding venues in Tahoe, I contacted Anne to see if she was available on our chosen date because I really wanted her to play a...
t our wedding. She is incredibly talented and easy to work with. She was very accommodating and helpful throughout the entire wedding planning process, even providing weather and road construction advice each time we traveled to Tahoe. She was also extremely considerate in asking us what colors she should wear to the wedding and very professional with her equipment set-up and amplification. I highly recommend her services, as she is a dream to work with and her music adds a beautiful touch to every event!
My husband and I recently had our wedding at Valhalla, Lake Tahoe. With the accompaniment of Anne's harp, our wedding day was more beautiful than we could have ever imagined. From ...
the moment we spoke to Anne on the phone, we knew she would be perfect for our special day. Not only was she helpful with our wedding music selection, she offered advice and recommendations for all areas of our wedding planning. Anne is an extremely gifted artist with a warm heart that will add a special touch to any event she is a part of.
Anne is fantastic!! We were so lucky to have her play at our Tahoe wedding. She spent countless hours on the phone with me and via email reviewing details and making sure our song ...
list was perfect. She also did a free demo for us in her living room, which was spectacular. I highly recommend Anne if you're looking for a professional, calming, joyous musician for your wedding. All our guests were WOWed!! Thank you Anne!
Anne was amazing! I ended up booking her last minute and was SO glad I did. We literally had 1-2 weeks to put together the play list and she was so professional, flexible, and help...
ful. She has an extensive play list and we selected that she play fun modern pop/hit songs as well as some classics which the guests absolutely loved. I am so glad we chose her and would definitely recommend her to anyone to add a personal touch to their ceremony and cocktail hour! HUGE hit with the guests! My only regret is that I didn't get to hear her play more myself because of pictures.
Anne was amazing! She is one of the nicest people I've ever met, and her music is beautiful. I'd recommend her to anyone. Her harp gave our special day that extra bit of elegance I...

he even coordinated her attire to match our wedding theme. Anne went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect for our day. Her song selection library is quite extensive and she took the time to send me links and talk to me about which songs to choose to fit our preference and our theme. All of our guests were in awe of her talent and everyone commented on what a wonderful touch it was to have her at our wedding! Thank you Anne!

r appearance and demeanor are very professional. You can't go wrong working with Anne!
What can I say, other than Anne was incredible. From the first time I contacted her, she was very polite, professional, and just a pleasure to do business with. It's very obvious...
that Anne has plenty of experience and knows what she is doing. She asked questions that made planning the music for the ceremony easy, and never left us in doubt as to what was going to happen that day. My wife and I had a catholic ceremony in a church, which Anne was very familiar with, so she knew exactly what kind of music to play and when and everything went incredibly smooth and according to plan. Contact back and forth with Anne was also very easy. She is on top of everything and responds very quickly. She also follows up with you if she doesn't hear back, which I thought was great. There is a lot going on when planning a wedding, and it can though to stay on top of everything, so Anne's friendly reminders were very helpful. Last but not least, Anne is an excellent harp player. Her music during the ceremony was great, set the ambiance, and our guests really enjoyed it. Anne, we can't thank you enough!

oned.
I am actually sad that as the bride I feel like I missed out on most of her great performance. BUT I loved what I did hear. I prefer classical (and not the same classics everyone plays), Broadway musicals and country; my now husband prefers Celtic, new age and movie themes. She must have more than an artistic touch to be able to play all types and make the transitions sound perfectly matched between vastly different styles. We discussed items via email and phone. Ann's professionalism is evident in her flexibility and guidance for us brides who haven't ever done this before. Considering we had the pleasure of her performance for an additional hour (very reasonable I highly recommend it) she played from guest arrival, the ceremony, cocktail hour and partly through dinner, and was a master in helping transition the mood from highly formal, reserved and church like to soiree cocktail mingling then facilitate a more jovial party feel prior to her transition with the DJ.
I was initially leaning towards a 3 or 4 piece string group and after hearing her on you tube, seeing her amazing credentials, appearances on multiple day/talk shows, multiple awards from wedding groups and speaking on the phone with her initially; I wouldn't want to work with anyone else. She is kind, flexible, sincere and professional. A rarity I have found.
I was premature in my concern that she was Celtic but she can do anything and everything. Her web site and song list is extraordinary, that sold me very quickly.
I would strongly recommend her to everyone, so much more reasonable financially (worth it!), provides great advice for getting married in Lake Tahoe and truly a joy to work with.
Anne did a beautiful job for my outdoor wedding. The music was fantastic and could be heard perfectly. She played all the songs I wanted and her music list is extensive with great ...
selections. For anyone who is looking for something different for their wedding, Anne Roos is the way to go. I couldn't be more pleased!
Anne is great! She is very quick to reply to your inquiry. And her music was so beautiful..
I would definitely refer her to anyone for their special day.
Anne was so easy to work with! Not only is her music incredible, but she goes above and beyond what is expected. I was new to the Reno/Tahoe area and she offered suggestions for lo...
cations and vendors based on her experience. Her music at the ceremony was perfect, and I'm looking forward to attending some of her other events and concerts in the future. I paid a little extra since she had to travel to North Lake Tahoe but she has a very affordable budget wedding package if you have your wedding in South Lake Tahoe. Even with the extra it was well worth it!
She was easy to work with. And helped us picked our music. Lots of options.
Learnt specific piece for the 'Welsh' music I requested. Very nice lady and aims to please.
I loved having a harpist at our wedding. I used to play the harp and violin and had always dreamed about including one or both in our ceremony. We were able to get Anne to come p...
lay at our ceremony and her music made it really special for us. She was very accomodating and asked what theme (if any) or colors we had chosen for our wedding party so she would blend into any photos she appeared in. She was very kind and even gave us a cd of her music so we could remember her later.
