Guests could not stop offering compliments on the music!

We hired Brian and Mary (harpist + flutist) and could not be happier! We had 50 guests for our wedding, and everyone of all different ages could not stop complimenting the music! Brian was extremely responsive every step of the way and cared very deeply that he got everything right. We initially were planning on just hiring Brian (harp only); however, we are so glad we went with the duo instead as the flute added a new dimension to the sound! Guests complimented the perfect volume, the music selection (friends loved the Disney medley) and how unique this choice of entertainment was! We personally loved the classical, timeless sound of the music and beautiful optics of the harp! Thank you Brian for doing a spectacular job!

Professional and Flexible

We are glad we had Brian play at our wedding ceremony. He really knew the job and was very professional. He showed up on time, accommodate all our requests, and was willing to cover the Bridal Chorus when we told him the pianist who supposed to play it might not show up. We would definitely recommend him to our friends and family.
