Erica was the perfect additional to our evening under the stars in Palm Springs. She has the most beautiful talent and created the ambiance for our event. She went above and beyond to assist us with figuring out appropriate lighting for her while keeping the area dark for star gazing and was very knowledgeable about the venue!
She was great to work with in pre-planning and very responsive!
I look forward to hiring Erica again in the future!
Erica played during our pre-ceremony, ceremony, and cocktail hour of our wedding May 4,2013 at Spencer's in Palm Springs.
She was simply amazing from our meetings, emails, and her performance on our special day. Our family and friends are still talking about how beautifully she played.
We really appreciated her professional opinions with our song selections. She was honest with what would sound great on the harp and what would not. Her library is quite extensive with current songs as well as classic faves, but she was still open to other songs that we were interested in. She was able to listen to our requests and determine if she could arrange them to play on the harp and if it sound good. In the end we decided on the following for our ceremony:
"Love Story" by Taylor Swift
"A Thousand Years" by Christina Perri
"Chasing Cars" by Snow Patrol for when my Dad walked me down the aisle.
"Can't Help Falling in Love" by Elvis for the recessional
"All You Need is Love" by The Beatles for our entrance to the cocktail party
I still get chills when I think about her performance that evening!
I would highly recommend her to anyone looking to add a "special something" to their event....you will not be disappointed!
wonferful to deal with, very professional
Erica was fantastic! I didn't have any idea what music I wanted, she put it all together herself and played it by ear. The harp was amazing. I thought it might not be enough on it's own but it was surreal. perfect
