Wedding Harpists for hire in Ely
Latest reviews of our Wedding Harpists in Ely
"This was the second time we had booked Felicity for a private party. Felicity arrived early and set herself up quietly and calmly whilst we finished off decorating the room. She started promptly and we had 30 people arrive to music. She played classical music for 2 hours, with a short comfort break halfway through. Everyone loved the music and watching Felicity play. At the end, several people went up to Felicity to ask questions and she was very good replying and spending time doing so. I would totally recommend Felicity. We have booked her twice now and wouldn't hesitate to book again. "

Yvonne hired Felicity Meakins for a Wedding (available in Ely)
"Felicity was brilliant from our very first message exchange, she was happy to learn new songs for our wedding ceremony and agreed to help with keeping me hiring her as a surprise for my husband to be, keeping the harp hidden until my husband walked down the aisle. All our guests commented on how lovely her playing was, I just wish I got more time to listen to her myself (downside of being a bride). I would absolutely recommend Felicity to anyone looking for a harpist in the future, her playing is exquisite, she was really punctual, her communication over here and on email was really great, and she was so lovely when I got to meet her.
