Gina's Reviews

You were truly fantastic on our wedding day. Your music really created a calm, magical atmosphere. We want to take this opportunity to say thank you for taking the time to learn our requests and for playing some more traditional pieces as well. You helped make our day perfect.

You really have such a magnificent talent and really helped set the tone and mood perfectly on our wedding at Drummuir Castle.

Customer questions

What do your clients love most about your performances?

Many clients have commented about how adaptable and versatile my playing style can be.

What if my timings change after I've booked you?

I always aim to be flexible to help ensure your event runs as smoothly as possible. If timings change in the run up to the event just let me know!

How much time do you need to set up?

I usually arrive about 60minutes before the performance time to set up. As soon as the harp is tuned I’m ready to go!

Do you need any equipment provided to play outdoors?

Shelter from rain or direct sunlight and a flat surface to perform on is all that I require to keep the harp happy and safe.

Can I pick the pieces you play from the set list?

Of Course! This is a small sample of my repertoire and I’m happy to chat through your requirements to make sure we have the perfect selection of tunes to fit your occasion.

Can you learn specific pieces before the event?

Absolutely - If I’m given enough notice prior to the event I will definitely have a go at learning new pieces for your event. If there are any special songs that you have in mind then do let me know and I will be delighted to have a chat about your requests.
