"We put a call out on Encore for a harpist who could play Disney & musicals. The message we got back from Dorothy was amazing - it was so personal to us and she as so excited to play the music we wanted. We booked her immediately without question. She is amazing to work with, learning video game and 2000s movie songs for our perfect walking down the aisle experience. Our guests LOVED her and couldn’t stop raving about her all day. We are so grateful to have had someone so genuinely lovely, talented and passionate as part of our wedding, and I couldn’t recommend her enough. "
