Whether it be playing for your Ceremony, Drinks Reception, Wedding Breakfast or the 'Whole Day'
option, Fiona prides herself on
providing a personal and friendly
service.
(Amplification is also available
with her Harp, which then gives
the Harp an extra boost of musical
power over any noise - this is particularly good for over 120 guests!)
So - you've chosen the date and
venue, what could be more atmospheric and romantic than having a
Harpist to entertain you and your
guests?
A harp provides a fantastic romantic atmosphere and also makes a
great focal point as well amongst
guests.
Once booked for an event, Fiona
suggests to then have a chat about
any musical preferences that the
client may have, or she can suggest
items to listen to. Classic FM and
borrowing CDs from your local library are a good cost effective idea,
as buying wedding CDs can be expensive and not all pieces are suitable to play on the Harp!
She offers Skype consultations and
also invites clients to hear her her
play at her house (by appointment
only).
