Anniversary Party Harpist, DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel, Oak Brook

The family arrived super early, so I wasn't able to get pictures of the space, but here I am ready to play Bollywood music for the couple's 50th anniversary. The guests really enjoyed hearing something they never had before (Bollywood selections on harp), and I even learned a special song for the celebrating couple!

Ceremony Harpist, Garfield Park Conservatory, Chicago

 Garfield Park Conservatory is just a revelation every time you visit, and it is such a pleasure to play for weddings there! This beautiful wedding featured "To Zanarkand" from Final Fantasy for the wedding party. It was a special request (meaning I had never played it before), and they really loved it! Here is a video of me right after I learned it, if you are curious:

What special request would you have me learn??

Wedding Mass Harpist, St Clare of Montefalco Church, Chicago

Weddings after Christmas are so nice with all of the
holiday decorations still up!

 The first wedding of 2026 was so lovely!! The church still had all of the Christmas flowers out, and everything was warm and cozy. I always enjoy playing a Catholic wedding mass, because the needs are so very different from any other type of ceremony. I own a set of Gather Comprehensive, so the process is generally very smooth. We used the Mass of Creation, and it was really lovely!
