Catriona's Reviews

5 out of 5

We were so incredibly lucky to have Cat as our harpist for our wedding, playing from guest arrivals right through to the end of our drinks reception. From start to finish, she was nothing short of amazing. Not only is Cat exceptionally talented (the harp created the most beautiful, calm and magical atmosphere), but she is also one of the kindest, warmest people you could hope to have around on your wedding day. She was so thoughtful, professional and reassuring, exactly the presence you need during such a special, emotional time. So many of our guests commented on how lovely the music was, and it truly elevated the whole experience. Cat added such an elegant, romantic touch and we couldn’t have imagined the day without her. If you’re considering a harpist, book Cat. We honestly couldn’t recommend her highly enough!

Thank you so much, your playing was beautiful!

Thank you so much for your beautiful performance in the Barbican Conservatory!
