When I first heard her playing before I walked down the aisle, it brought tears to my eyes and was everything I’d envisioned.

FAQs about hiring Wedding Harpists in Armagh

Take the stress out of hiring musicians with Encore

Is a harpist at a wedding reception worth it?

Harpists can be a great addition to any wedding reception, especially for couples who are looking for a warm, intimate feel.

Most importantly, they provide elegant background music for conversation and mingling, ensuring your guests can enjoy each other's company without being overwhelmed by loud music.

Does a harpist play in the background of the ceremony

Harpists are a popular choice for wedding ceremonies due to their romantic, gentle sound.

Whether you desire calming prelude music, a graceful processional piece, or a celebratory recessional tune, a harpist can provide it all.
