    100% Recommend Naomi :)

    Naomi played her beautiful harp for our seating and ceremony music. She was an absolute dream to work with -- between our meetings prior to the wedding all the way up to the end of the ceremony. I always looked forward to our virtual meetings to hear her play her harp. Although I selected songs for our seating and ceremony she already had in her repertoire, she was more than willing to download and learn any songs that I may have wanted which I found to be above and beyond. We did select to have our DJ play a song from the sound system to walk back down the aisle to, but Naomi had it printed out and ready to go to play on the harp in case anything went wrong with the sound system -- I found her proactiveness and thinking ahead in this situation to be so professional and smart in a 'save the day' manner had anything gone wrong. Naomi -- I can not thank you enough for adding this special touch to our wedding day. The elegance and beauty you and your harp brought to our ceremony was such a special touch. Thank you

    Thank you dear Lauren!! What amazing Serendipity from above, that the winter rains stopped just for a day and gave you the most sunny, beautiful day for your wedding overlooking the ocean! Everything was just magnificent and I was so honored to be a musical part of it. Wishing you both nonstop reasons to celebrate in the future!!

    Phenominal Harpist!!!

    Choose this Harpist! Seriously - you do not need to look further! Our magical day started in a magical way! She is NOT JUST extremely talented and experienced, but this AMAZING harpist was patient, understanding, empathetic, and SO HELPFUL with suggestions for the order of songs and all aspects of my wedding. She found music for all the "extra" songs we needed RAPIDLY. The contemporary songs sounded beautiful when played by this harpist! She even accompanied ME when I SANG to my partner. It was a surprise and she kept the secret up to the end!

    Harpist Naomi Alter's reply:

    Many thanks for your sweet words! I was so very happy to provide that secret song, and all the others that helped make your Amazing
    Big Day special! True Love endures forever..... Congratulations to you both!

    Wonderful! Harp music for wedding

    Naomi provided amazing music for our wedding. She was wonderful to work with from start to finish of our planning process. She was flexible and accommodated our song selections, even going above and beyond to learn a Chinese song which was not part of her repertoire and which I knew my parents would like. She coordinated her outfit to match our wedding colours, arrived promptly and played beautifully through our prelude and ceremony, and cocktail hour. Out guests raved about her music and it added such an elegant touch. Hire her if you’re considering harp (which I think is softer and more beautiful than string if you’re having a single instrument)! She is awesome and we were so happy with her.

    Harpist Naomi Alter's reply:

    Dear Sinica and Arjun,
    I'm so grateful for your kindness, and for the chance to play harp on this most important day of your lives! Wishing you a lifetime of joy and celebration together!
    Warmly, Naomi Alter

    Best harpist

    If you want to add class and elegance to an event, hire Naomi. She was very flexible and accommodating to all our wants. She is so sweet and was always available to hop on a meeting with us when we asked her. She is an expert in this field and is able to play any song thrown at her. I had asked for a few songs that were not listed in her playlist and, without hesitation, she found the music sheet and knew how to play the song. I would definitely recommend her and would hire her again if given the opportunity.

    Harpist Naomi Alter's reply:

    Thank you so much, dear Eunice! Your day was incredible, and the "new" music you chose has quickly become part of my daily repertoire! Love those beautiful and soulful melodies; you have great taste. Happy, wonderful times are ahead for you.....the Best is Yet to Be! Warmly, harpist Naomi Alter

    Heavenly harpist!

    Naomi was so wonderful to work with and her harp music was the perfect whimsical addition to our garden ceremony. She was easy to coordinate with, provided clear guidelines and feedback on timeline and songs, and has a great song library and list for reference. Naomi even coordinated her outfit to our wedding colors. Her harp was music to everyone’s ears - we still receive compliments on her performance :) Do yourself a favor and hire this sweet lady and her heavenly sounding harp! Thank you, Naomi!

    Harpist Naomi Alter's reply:

    Thank you, Dear Kaitlyn, for your very kind words! Your amazing Big Day is etched forever in my memory.....everything was so beautiful and heartfelt. Wishing you Love, Laughter and Blessings! Naomi :)

    Naomi helped to make our ceremony incredibly beautiful!

    Naomi's harp-playing truly made our wedding so special. We can't imagine having had our ceremony without Naomi, and we are so grateful that she was a part of our day!

    Harpist Naomi Alter's reply:

    What a miracle for me to have the chance to play for 2 generations of your family's weddings! I feel honored and touched that you allowed me that privilege. With warmest wishes to you both for all the best in life,

    Amazing Harpist

    We were blessed to have found Naomi at the Bridal Bazaar in San Diego. As soon as she played us some sample music, we automatically fell in love with her talent and the passion that she brought to her music. She was very flexible and professional during the whole process and she even took the time to learn a song that my wife wanted to walk down the aisle to. I would highly recommend Naomi for your wedding. Everyone in attendance at our wedding was in awe of her musical talent and enjoyed the musical choice that was played.

    Harpist Naomi Alter's reply:

    Dear Ardy and Jerelle,
    Your Wedding Day was so fabulous in every way! Thank you for the privilege of being there to provide a musical backdrop to the idyllic scenery! Wishing you all the best and a life full of happiness together, Harpist Naomi Alter :)

    Beautiful Harp Music

    Naomi provided the most beautiful music during our wedding ceremony. She was professional and so kind during our meetings leading up to the day. She is quick to respond and will work with you to ensure that your music is perfect for your ceremony. Our guests all commented on how wonderful the music was and how it added to our wonderful day. Highly recommend.

    Harpist Naomi Alter's reply:

    Thank you so much, Tom and Rachel,
    For those wonderfully kind words! It was an honor to be there, and the ocean view and natural setting was a gorgeous backdrop for your amazing Wedding Day!

    Naomi is great!

    Naomi did a wonderful job playing harp for our wedding ceremony. She's easy to work with and very responsive. She did an entire planning session with us over a video call where she walked through music options and played on the spot so we could hear samples. The music she played sounded wonderful and really enhanced the atmosphere of the wedding ceremony. Highly recommend working with her!

    Harpist Naomi Alter's reply:

    Dear Tony and Kelly,
    I'm so grateful to have been there playing for you two on your Big Day at the Grand Tradition! It was incredibly beautiful and I hope you both continue to "glow" for many happy years to come!
    Warmest Wishes from Naomi Alter :)

    Magical sound!

    After hearing Naomi play at the bridal expo in Del Mar, San Diego, we booked her asap for our daughter's wedding. She worked very well with our daughter and son-in-law to plan for the songs (classic and modern) to be played at the ceremony and cocktail hour. The sound was so dreamy and made the event more special. We highly recommend Naomi for weddings and other events. Thank you, Naomi!

    Harpist Naomi Alter's reply:

    Congratulations!! and many, many thanks for having my harp and I there on your family's Very Special Day! It was perfect in every way.

    Perfection!

    We hired Naomi for my daughter's wedding in December 2021. She is outstanding! She played beautifully, and the guests enjoyed her pre-ceremony and ceremony music. I 100% recommend her for a wedding. Pure joy! Thank you Naomi!

    Harpist Naomi Alter's reply:

    Dear Angela,
    Thank you for being so kind! What a beautiful, awesome day in the life of your family, so enchanting with twinkling lights and Christmas trees! So glad that you made my harp a part of the celebration! Gratefully, Naomi :)

    Naomi was great!

    We hired Naomi for a small elopement/wedding in La Jolla. She was incredibly flexible - learned multiple songs that we wanted, and was willing to be out in the sun as we wanted to avoid an umbrella in our pictures. She is a warm positive presence and the instrument sounded beautiful. Highly recommended!

    Harpist Naomi Alter's reply:

    You kind words are so appreciated, Spencer! What an incredibly beautiful Big Day it was! All the best is wished for you both in this wonderful new adventure together. Warm Regards, Naomi

    Highly Recommended

    Hiring Naomi was the best decision we made for our wedding. Not only is her music so wonderfully beautiful, she has a charming and charismatic personality, and is a team player! She coordinated with our wedding colors, and was very sweet, easy to work with, and very helpful throughout the whole process. Honestly, we continue to receive compliments days after our wedding occurred on how great the harpist was. And it really does dress up a wedding ceremony and gives a more upscale and classy vibe. Our venue coordinators were also in awe of the harp music. My only regret was having been the bride and not a guest, else I could have enjoyed all of the music she played! I also wish I would have walked down the aisle slower to prolong the song I chose for my processional. Anyway, that just gives me an excuse to keep recommending her to friends who plan to get married so I get my moment as a guest to hear her play :) Soon enough, hehe. Thanks again, Naomi. You’re amazing!

    Harpist Naomi Alter's reply:

    Thank you so much, Nancy! What a perfect, amazing day for you two! I'm so thrilled that your awesome Big Day happened even with the current restrictions......because True Love just can't wait! Congratulations!!

    A true joy to work with

    Naomi was a true joy to work with! She helped us find a fantastic violinist to play with her during our ceremony. Naomi also played amplified harp during our cocktail hour and our guests raved about how great she was. She is incredibly flexible and will work with you to ensure you love the songs that she plays on your special day. I couldn’t recommend her enough!

    Harpist Naomi Alter's reply:

    Dear Alexis, You must still be glowing with the joy of your incredible, amazing Wedding Day! Thank you so much for your kind words and for making my harp music a part of it. Maestra Ulli Reiner also thanks you and was honored to be there playing violin!

    Wonderful!

    Naomi played at my wedding, and she was great. During the planning process, she was very responsive via email.

    I really wanted two specific songs to be played that were atypical for a wedding, one of which for my bridal entrance. Naomi was very accommodative in finding the sheet music for those two songs and scheduling calls with me, so I could hear how they would sound. The day of my ceremony, those songs were perfect.

    I received many compliments on how beautiful the pre-ceremony and ceremony music were from guests. I would highly recommend Naomi.

    Harpist Naomi Alter's reply:

    Dear Ashley,
    Thank you so much for your kindness, and for allowing me to be there on your spectacular Wedding Day by the ocean! The beauty of the location was exceeded by your great love, so obvious to all, straight from your hearts! Your guests felt it too, and had lovely things to say as well. With many congratulations and warm wishes,
    Harpist Naomi Alter :)

    Bride/client

    I loved Naomi. If you want to impress your guests, having a harpist will set the ambience of elegance and class of your party. I'm glad I met Naomi at the SD Bridal Bazaar because she is so sweet and easy to work with. Not to mention her pricing is very reasonable. I hired Naomi for my wedding ceremony and I would hire her again for my next party. She also has an extensive musical background and basically knows every song in the book. I had a Breakfast at Tiffany's theme for my wedding and she played Moon River beautifully. She provides her own sound system and her harp is large and beautiful. Definitely a great accessory to my wedding :)

    Harpist Naomi Alter's reply:

    It was so wonderful to be a musical part of your Very Special Big Day! Wishing you two all the best that life has to offer,

    Thank you, Naomi! Such a beautiful ceremony and we are so, so glad to have found her! Naomi is very experienced, knows her ceremonies (we had a catholic mass and she was ready for us!) and has such a beautiful voice! Impeccable and we are so grateful to have had you for our ceremony. Wish you the absolute best and highly recommend! If you are looking for a harpist, Naomi is the one. Her vocals with the harp will add the perfect touch to an already perfect day. Thank you!

    My husband and I hired Naomi for our wedding day in Nov. 2017. Since I was a little girl, I always loved the sound of a harp! When we found Naomi, I knew instantly that I wanted her to play at our wedding. She was able to play the non-traditional songs that we wanted for almost every spot during our ceremony and reception. Her music was beautiful. We loved it and our guests loved it too. I would highly recommend Naomi for your next big event. She was wonderful!!

    Harpist Naomi Alter's reply:

    It was a great pleasure to play harp for you on this memorable day for the two of you! Gratefully, Naomi Alter :)

    This was the second time I asked Naomi Alter to perform...first for my daughter's wedding and then again at my granddaughter's.
