Hi! I can not recommend highly enough Margaret's services to our wedding. She was very friendly and warm to our guests and we were able to keep in contact with her via email with fast responses even when we were contacting her from the UK. As a Bride to be, she reassured me of her capabilities by sending across a sample of her work in the music of my choice for the wedding which was Ed Sheeran Tenerife Sun. It sounded fantastic on a download and even better in person. My family and friends commented and talked at lenght about the music. Thank you so much for assisting us in making the music in our ceremony personalised to us. You are a very talented and kind lady! Thank you!Hi!

Absolutely book Margaret for your event! I recently had her play at my wedding ceremony and cocktail hour, and the added touch of her live music was absolutely wonderful! She was a total professional and such a pleasure to work with from planning the music to the day of, and she was even able to accommodate an extra hour of playing when we requested it last minute. I cannot recommend her enough!Absolutely book Margaret for your event!

My husband and I hired Margaret and her husband Bill to play both the harp and flute during our outdoor wedding ceremony. The music that I did hear was perfect! I do wish I had been a guest so I could have heard more!! Guests were happy with the lovely background music as they waited for the limo to arrive. My husband said that Margaret and her husband were already playing music when he arrived with the groomsmen a full half hour or more prior to the ceremony.
As others have mentioned, Margaret's website is very helpful with suggestions, advice, and beautiful samples of her music. She was very accommodating even with my list of classical as well as modern song choices. She was very prompt, friendly, and professional with her phone calls and emails.
Margaret and her husband are an excellent choice if you are looking for live musicians!
Thanks again,

Margaret Sneddon was recommended by our day of coordinator Jeanne Stark (Hudson Valley Ceremonies). After exchanging emails, we hired Margaret to play the harp during our interfaith wedding ceremony. A few months before the wedding, we jumped on a call to determine what music to play. Margaret obviously knows her craft and was able to suggest a mix of Irish and Jewish music to represent both me and my husband. We were thrilled!
With all that was going on the day of, I never actually got to meet and thank Margaret in person, which I regret. But from what I heard walking down the aisle and throughout the ceremony, she more than did her job. We also heard multiple compliments about how much her music lent to the setting and atmosphere of our nuptials.
I highly recommend Margaret for your own wedding!Margaret Sneddon was recommended by our day of coordinator Jeanne Stark (Hudson Valley Ceremonies).

Margaret Sneddon's harp was the crown jewel of our wedding ceremony. She made that part of our wedding so easy--her website is extremely user friendly, listing audio clips, suggestions for processionals, recessionals and the like. Her communication is also excellent, so it was very easy for us to coordinate the music for our ceremony.
And of course she was exquisite that day--she even played the Ave Maria gently to accompany my mother reading a poem, and it was absolutely perfect. I am so glad we decided to go with her; her professionalism and performance made our wedding so much more memorable!Margaret Sneddon's harp was the crown jewel of our wedding ceremony.

Margaret was an absolute dream to work with. She made my wedding AND engagement a complete fairy tale. Her Harp playing was amazing and a wonder to listen to! I am a musician so I know what to expect, and she went galaxy's beyond my expectations. I could not even imagine anyone better to have worked with. Besides her beautiful harp playing, her customer service is amazing as well. She listens and accomplishes exactly what you are looking for. She gives great advice and will make sure the music ambience you are looking for is 100% achieved! Her work ethic is impeccable and she's always on time (sets up early to make sure everything is ready for the start time). I will definitely use her beautiful harp services in the future and would recommend her for any personal or business event. THANK YOU SO MUCH MARGARET for adding magic to my dream!!!Margaret was an absolute dream to work with. She made my wedding AND engagement a complete fairy tale.

Very beautifully played music for our ceremony and cocktail hour. We had Mr and Mrs Sneddon play the harp and flute. They played together perfectly. Great value for money and they looked very professional and elegant together! I would use them again.

Margaret has played for a few events that I have held over the years. She is always punctual, professional and provides from classical to Led Zeppelin music-yes Led Zeppelin on a harp! The most recent event was for my mother's 80th birthday this past March. I wanted only the very best to celebrate and there wasn't a second thought to call Margaret. She is always pleasant and everyone of different ages is intrigued by her.Margaret has played for a few events that I have held over the years.

Having a harpist on your special day is very elegant. Margaret was amazing. Her music set me as a bride at ease and gave me comfort. The music was so graceful and everyone there on my wedding day complimented her. It really set the stage as I walked up to my husband and began my journey into matrimony. I loved it. I highly recomend having her there during ceremony and the cocktail hour as well. It was great.Having a harpist on your special day is very elegant. Margaret was amazing.

Dear Magaret,
My wedding on September 26, 2009 at St. Mary's Church was absolutely BEAUTIFUL!! I always enjoyed the harp, but when I met you at Fontana's Bridal shop I just knew I had to have YOU play at my wedding. After the ceremony my husband said to me, "incorporating the harp in the ceremony was a great decision and worth every penny!"
It brought a sense of elegance and harmony to the ceremony, along with the organist and soloist, it ALL blended perfectly. Your suggestions were perfect. Everyone enjoyed it and had something positive to say.
It was a truly a pleasure meeting you. Thank you so much for your FANTASTIC music.
All the best,
Marisol and James Martinez
