Add all the elegance with a dash of hip, young flair with Stephan's music! With his modern sensibility, Stephan regularly performs a wide variety of wedding music. Music ranging from pop, rock, and r&b, like Beyoncé, Drake, The Beatles, and Led Zeppelin, to jazz music like Frank Sinatra and Louis Armstrong, to of course the classical wedding favorites to set the elegant wedding mood. Stephan takes great pride in the ability to take requests, arranging music that might seem a little out of the ordinary for the harp but always makes them suitable for the wedding ceremony. Stephan understands the importance of music for weddings and he knows that everybody's taste is special, personal, and always a little bit different.
He will work closely with you to find the right music to fit your ceremony, customizing the musical selections for your ceremony, cocktail hour, rehearsal dinner, and reception.
He has been playing harp for 20 years, performing professionally for the past 7. He holds a masters degree in harp performance. In addition to performing, he also teaches private harp and group classes.

Stephan was wonderful to work with and I got so many compliments from guests on his performance. He was quick to provide me with a list of songs, provided recordings, and made great recommendations on song choices. I walked down the aisle to Sigur Rós - Hoppípolla and it was amazing! I would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for live ceremony music. Thank you, Stephan!

It's been almost a year since our dreamy wedding in the woods, and our friends and family still rave about our harpist Stephan! Prior to the wedding, he collaborated with us on the song list and took time to meet with our officiant at the rehearsal. I can still remember the moment I walked down the aisle with Sea of Love playing at the beginning of the ceremony and at the end, walking side-by-side with my brand new husband to Ignition Remix. His beautiful harp renditions of our favorite songs made our redwood venue even more magical, and we are truly thankful for Stephan.
