Ceremony Harpist, Trinity Episcopal, Wheaton

Trinity Episcopal in Wheaton is available for rent. They have two spaces available, this larger space, and a smaller, historic chapel. When you rent, you get lots of support from the church, including a coordinator named Chuck, who is wonderful. Before posting this, I wanted to make sure that there weren't specific requirements for folks wanting to hold their wedding here, and Chuck assured me that all are welcome 💗💗💗 This wonderful policy meant that all assembled on this day were able to enjoy a blended ceremony that had Christian and Indian traditions. Bollywood for prelude, anyone?

Not quite set up yet, but you can see the basics for sure!

I would love to play for your blended wedding! www.ChicagoWeddingHarpist.com

Ceremony and Cocktail Harpist, RPM Events, Chicago

The back of the room is the perfect place for the harp!

The historic Reid Murdoch Building houses RPM Seafood upstairs, and RPM Events at the river level. The space downstairs all faces out to the river, and the views are spectacular! I played for the ceremony, and then scooted out to the outdoor space to play for cocktails. It was golden hour out there, and the guests watched the setting sun play off of all the buildings... it was heaven!

Lots of room for guests to relax!

Now I'm just goofing around and taking cool
photos (the guests were gone)

You guys, it was so beautiful!

If you're going to have your wedding at some iconic location, I think you should definitely have harp music! www.ChicagoWeddingHarpist.com

Ceremony Harpist, St. Sophia, Des Plaines

It was such a pleasure to play at St Sophia; the Church is highly ornate, and just a joy to behold! With all of the hard surfaces, the harp sounded fantastic, too. The bride actually fell in love with one of the Bollywood tunes on my YouTube channel (Kal Ho Naa Ho), so her processional was truly a multicultural event!💖

If you are looking to combine all the things you love, I definitely want to help! www.ChicagoWeddingHarpist.com

Bridal Shower Harpist, Gibson's Italia, Chicago

Looking east toward the Reid Murdoch Building

This is the second time I've been to Gibson's Italia, and I still found it wildly impressive! Honestly, It is difficult to get a picture that takes in the entirety of the venue.... the incredible vista, the balcony, the glass ceiling, just all of it! We were here on this day, to celebrate the bride to be, so I played love songs, and wedding favorites, and everyone had a great time dreaming about the big day to come!

I can help you with music to suite any occasion: www.Harp123.com

Ceremony Harpist, Osteria Via Stato, Chicago

Osteria Via Stato is located in the northeast corner of the Embassy Suites Hotel in River North, and they do a lovely job hosting weddings! Above you see the middle room of three on this side of the restaurant, and it makes a fine ceremony site. The couple chose lots of unusual things for their ceremony, including "May the Force Be With You" for their unity candle!💗 It was whimsical, and charming, and very, very much them!

Afterwards, the newly married couple and their guests were able to enjoy the front room, and the outdoor patio, which they had all to themselves!

Set up with enough room for dancing!

My repertoire lists insure that you won't miss adding any of your favorites to your ceremony! www.ChicagoWeddingHarpist.com

Ceremony and Cocktail Harpist, W Chicago - Lakeshore, Chicago

A little hard to get the sense of the roundness of the room,
but it's there!!

We were set to be on the balcony of the 6th floor at W Chicago - Lakeshore, but the weather had other ideas. It's kind of great when your fallback is this iconic round space with fantastic lake views, though! After a flurry of activity, it looked really beautiful!!

The bride chose "November Rain" by Guns 'N Roses for her processional, and it was really dramatic and lovely!
