  Fabulous Harpist

  Vanessa was delightful to work with. She’s professional, showed up on time, prompt and easy to communicate with and so extremely talented. The music she played on her harp for our wedding was heavenly and absolutely perfect. Do not hesitate to book her for your event!

  The perfect addition to any ceremony

  Dr. Fountain’s playing was probably the thing that people raved about the most in terms of my wedding. The ceremony space was already so ethereal, and her music was just the cherry on top! From our first interaction, she was professional, responsive, and incredibly nice. Once my wedding producer took over, he told me the exact same things about her, and how she was the easiest vendor to work with. Thank you, Dr. Fountain, for helping me to create a day that was beyond what I dream of as a little girl.

  Talented harpist!

  For a backyard family event (25th wedding anniversary), Dr. Vanessa Sheldon played the harp during our cocktail hour and was absolutely superb. Very talented and professional, she set the perfect tone for an elegant evening. I deeply appreciated that she also provided a list of songs in advance to customize her performance, and was also willing to take requests or learn new songs in advance. Great to work with and smooth communication!

  Added even more beauty to my wedding

  Dr. Vanessa was great from the beginning! Getting into contact with her was so easy and her response times were always prompt. We were able to decide everything within a couple of emails! Before my wedding, Vanessa checked in with me about my wedding color scheme and what to wear. Even though I didn’t particularly have one, I really appreciated the thoughtfulness!
  
  On the day of the wedding Dr. Vanessa provided us with heavenly sounds. My mom told me she began weeping before I was even in view because of the beautiful harp music! It added a special touch that doesn’t always transfer with prerecorded music.
  
  I would highly recommend Dr. Vanessa for your wedding! It will feel like a dream 💫

  Vanessa was a wonderful musical addition to our holiday cocktail party. She played beautifully many various types of songs which we requested her to perform. She chose just the right ones from Christmas to the American song book. Her pleasant personality and professionalism made her a joy to work with. Highly recommended.

  The Perfect Addition For A Whimsical Wedding

  Vanessa's performance at our wedding was everything I imagined and more. She played for both our ceremony and the following cocktail hour. She showed up in a beautiful dress appropriate for our black tie event. Her white harp was breathtaking to look at, and her setlist added the perfect touch to provide the whimsical tone we were looking for. Many of our guests came up to my husband and I at the wedding to compliment us on the fantastic decision to have Vanessa play for us. My only regret was not having a chance to chat with her on the actual wedding day. Vanessa was extremely organize and professional to work with during planning. Hire her! You won't regret it.

  Dr. Vanessa Sheldon at Memorial Service

  Vanessa did a great job for my family. She played at the memorial service for my mother, as well as all through the reception following. She was great, very entertaining, and was flexible. Also, she was easy to deal with, stayed calm and collected throughout the event, and had to deal with other musicians. I would recommend her highly and would use her again myself.

  We are so grateful to find Dr. Vanessa Sheldon. We were trying to plan a wedding in California & we live out of state. She was amazing to work with, she would always respond to my emails in a quick manner, helping us to put all the details together. She sent us a list of songs to choose from which had such a wide variety that it covered our ceremony & cocktail hour perfectly. We only requested one song not on the list & she learned it for our ceremony. She also at our request found a violinist to accompany her at our wedding which alleviated us from having to search for one. I would recommend her for any wedding. Who knows if my other 2 girls decide on a destination wedding I will be calling her again:)

  We had a Hawaiian theme for our wedding. Dr. Sheldon sent us a long list of music titles from which we could select the music for our wedding. It included classical titles, Broadway Show tunes and other categories of music. She played our favorite, "The Hawaiian Wedding Song" so beautifully. Our guests commented on Dr. Sheldon's musical selections provided for all musical tastes AND set the tone of OUR wedding. Her beautiful white wedding harp added to the beauty of our wedding day! We will call her again for another party.

  Vanessa was the harpist for our outdoor wedding in La Quinta. My parents had a harpist at their wedding and we thought that it was such a unique idea. She did about 5 songs for the prelude, 2 for processional (one for myself and one for wedding party), and 1 for recessional - she provided a list of beautiful recommendations. She was very responsive and easy to work with. I would definitely recommend her if you want to add something special to your ceremony!

  Vanessa responded promptly and was very accomodating as far as the repertoire we requested. She also asked what the theme and color palette for the wedding was so that she would match, which we appreciated. Everyone enjoyed the music and the ambiance Vanessa provided. I would definitely use her again.
