Jill hired Ann Lombardi for a Wedding (available in Shropshire)
"Ann was absolutely brilliant. She arrived early to ensure suitablity of our setting. She looked wonderful and definitely a calm, talented harpist. Ann coped with children running around, adults eating and drinking and appreciated those who were in awe of her talent. Having her at our family celebration enhanced the memories even more. To quote one of my family who had been resting with her daughter ‘I will forever have the joy of waking to a wonderful sound that I then realised, it was the sound of a harpist’. Many thanks to Ann x"

FAQs about hiring Engagement Party Harpists in Shropshire
Take the stress out of hiring musicians with Encore
What kind of music will a harpist perform?
Harpists usually play music from a large classical-style repertoire. However, many harpists will be able to play a selection of pop music as well. Make sure to let them know ahead of time what kind of music you'd like them to play and they'll be more than happy to accomodate you!
How much space will the harpist need to perform? Do I need to provide anything?
Harpists need an area of about 2m x 3m to perform in. You will also need to be provide adequate cover for them, to protect from the sun/rain - the surface should also be flat, firm, and dry. Grass is usually a no-no, so if they are to perform on grass, make sure a solid mat is handy. Wet harp = sad harpist.
I want a harpist to perform at my wedding: which parts of the wedding should they play?
Most commonly, harpists will perform during the following parts of the ceremony: seating of the guests, entrance of the bride, signing of the registry, and the walk-out. If you want the harpist to provide music for the reception, make sure you tell them well in advance if it's at a different venue - moving a harp at short notice ain't easy!
