Paul hired Anita Aslin for a Wedding (available in Durham)
"So pleased to have booked Anita for our celebration meal after our wedding ceremony a few days earlier. Anita is a very accomplished harpist and has a very long list of a variety of music she is able to play. She happily incorporated some of our requests and played her own music as well which was very fitting. She has a huge list of all different music and is very willing to work with you to provide whatever you want to make your occasion memorable. She is very professional and she communicated really well throughout my booking from start to finish. All our guests commented on how special it had made our celebration and her beautiful harp. I would thoroughly recommend Anita and just to say a huge Thankyou for making our day so special and memorable . Christine & Ian"
