Cocktail and Introduction Harpist, Bridgeport Art Center, Chicago




 This absolutely gorgeous wedding was at the Bridgeport Art Center. I started in the cocktail room, just opposite the elevator. At the Bridgeport Art Center, the elevator is kind of famous, because there is usually a bar set up inside! By the time guests got a beverage on their way up, and then were greeted by a harpist as soon as the elevator doors opened, they knew they were in for an epic evening! I played Bollywood favorites mixed with a few western choices for all of cocktail hour. When the curtain to the dining room opened, I quickly changed orientation, so I could play for the bride's entrance - it was a lovely touch!

Ceremony and Reception Harpist, Adolfo & Co, Bridgeport Art Center, Chicago

The gorgeous room as it was set up for the reception

I've been to Adolfo & Co. in the Bridgeport Art Center several times, and it is really a charming place for a smaller wedding. The room is so lovely, and Adolfo is the perfect host and officiant! The way the room is set up, there is plenty of room for a processional, which I think really adds to the occasion!

I set up on the back wall, and you can see the 
bar being set up behind me!


Here you can see some of the chairs set up for the ceremony

Reception Harpist, Bridgeport Art Center, Chicago


This wasn't a wedding, but rather a celebration of Adolfo & Co's 15 year business anniversary! Adolfo and I had done a wedding together earlier in the season, and he kept my card. When he was ready to gather the people who are important to him, he decided harp music would be fun, so I was hired. It is always an honor when you are chosen by another wedding professional, and I was delighted to play for this special celebration!

Ceremony and Cocktail Harpist, Bridgeport Art Center

 


The Bridgeport Art Center is one of those venues that is so large and impressive that is is difficult to capture in a photo. I played for the ceremony from this large space near the back, and then was able to move about 10 feet into the next room for the cocktails! It was a smooth, and beautiful start to the evening!


Impossible to get in the photo, but the view is amazing!!

They requested formal black, which is always
an elegant option!
