WEDDING INFORMATION:
Carol's RATES ARE REASONABLE and SHE WILL TRAVEL to your wedding destination (within 100 miles of Austin and San Antonio; travel fee applies).

Carol plays a CUSTOM MADE HARP and her harp tone is characterized as WARM, RICH, AND FULL SOUNDING unlike the thin, brittle tone of most harps. CAROL'S BEAUTIFUL HARP LOOKS LIKE AN ANTIQUE with tasteful gold leaves and vines painted on the soundboard.

Most brides do not realize that AN UNAMPLIFIED HARP IS HARD TO HEAR! Most harpists only play acoustically or run an amp without proper knowledge of EQ resulting in a thin, brittle sound. CAROL PLAYS THROUGH AN AMP OR A PROFESSIONAL P.A. SYSTEM and has many years of knowledge and experience running sound, thus creating a warm, beautiful, clear harp tone.

Thank You for considering Harpist Carol Tatum for your wedding or event!

Beautiful Harp Playing!

Carol was a fantastic addition to our ceremony! It really was the classic touch we were looking for when our guests were arriving all the way through the ceremony. She played classical pieces as well as renditions of newer songs. She even learned our first dance song just a couple of months before the wedding! She really is a true talent and her playing brought tears to just about everyone's eyes. We are looking forward to the video to hear her play as we watch our ceremony. Highly highly highly recommended to add that touch of beauty and class.

Carol was incredible! She met every expectation I had and I have already referred her to all my friends! She learned a new song that I wanted to hear and altered it perfectly for me to walk down the aisle to. It was the perfect addition to our ceremony.

Carol was SO amazing from the first time we spoke. She took the time to make sure she knew what we were looking for and helped with suggestions for songs from her list. She went above and beyond and learned our song for the ceremony and it turned out beautifully. She was a HUGE hit with our younger guests and her music was one of my favorite parts about my wedding! Do yourself a favor and hire this woman!
