    Nadia was such a pleasure to work with! She was very responsive via email and was amazing to accommodate all my song choices! I'm jealous that my guests got to enjoy her for longer than I did!

    Nadia did the ceremony music for our wedding, accompanied by a cellist (Hrant). She was a pleasure to work with, and the music was definitely one of the highlights of the wedding. She worked with us before the wedding to help us select songs for the different parts of the ceremony, providing samples of songs she had previously played. There was one song that we really wanted played at our ceremony that wasn't in her repertoire. She and the cellist came up with an arrangement for it and it was absolutely beautiful. I couldn't be happier with the way everything turned out, and Nadia was so helpful, warm, and responsive throughout the process. I'm so glad she and Hrant were a part of our wedding!

    Nadia and her colleague Ben played as a harp and cello duo at our wedding on May 8th, 2010. I was extremely impressed by every aspect of my interaction with Nadia. She was always professional yet very friendly, and willing to spend extra time working with us to make our wedding day as special and personalized as possible. Her music was just beautiful and set the perfect mood during our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour. I really can't say enough to recommend Nadia! Thank you!

    Nadia played beautifully on our wedding day. She was very punctual and professional. So many guests at the wedding came up to me and expressed how much they enjoyed her live music and how romantic and soothing it was. I highly recommend Nadia Pessoa.

    This is a very talented young lady who produces beautiful music. She provided music at the actual wedding ceremony. We picked from her standard list but she was certainly willing to work with us had we wanted something special. Her business practices were professional as well. Very happy with her perfomance and her level of service.

    I would not have anyone else as my ceremonial musician. Nadia is very professional and so sweet. She kept in touch throughout the process and was very prompt in the responses. I was very indecisive with my music selections and she helped me tremendously by providing me with samples to listen and offering her professional suggestions. She made it very easy for a stressful bride regarding the payment of the service. I was able to pay through paypal as often and as little as I want throughout the process as long as I paid her full a day before the wedding. I cannot tell you how easy that was. I kept telling her I wished my other vendors were as easy to work with as her. I have recommended her to couple of my friends who are getting married and I will continue to do so.

    Nadia was very professional in all of our dealings. She returned emails promptly and kept in touch during the weeks before our wedding to make sure we picked out music to fit our tastes and ceremony schedule. Nadia was flexible and worked with our site to make sure things ran smoothly. Her music was beautiful and we received many compliments. We would definitely recommend her to other couples looking to make their wedding ceremony music special.

    I chose to have a harpist perform during my wedding ceremony because the venue could not be traditionally decorated. Since the harp is such a beautiful instrument, I figured this would be a perfect addition to the space.

    Nadia came highly recommended to me – upon contacting her, I found that quite a few things could simply be handled by email or through her website. The website itself had enough information to answer most questions; but, if I needed additional info , Nadia was always available.

    On the day of my wedding, I was pleasantly surprised (and impressed) to find that Nadia had arrived to the venue early – she had already met with the pastor and situated herself by the time I arrived. I would like to note that the morning of my wedding was hectic – as the turbulent weather caused many people (including the ceremony coordinator to be late). No one met with Nadia when she arrived, yet she was ready to play… I received many, many compliments from the guests on her performance.

    Extremely talented, polite and professional, I would highly recommend Nadia to play at any engagement.

    We wanted a harpist for our wedding and looked at all the wedding websites for recommendations and hit the jackpot with Nadia Pessoa. Nadia is first so sweet and the first time I talked with her over the phone and through email, she feels like a friend you've known forever. She was very professional and the whole process was smooth and easy. Nadia helped us select songs for the ceremony and even learned two new songs for us "Marry Me" and "Good Life." We had a very hot day, but Nadia showed up early and played until every last guest left. She was proactive and got in contact with our venue and other vendors we were working with. As much planning as there is with a wedding, this was the most stress free "task" on our list. I will recommend her to all of my engaged couples!

    Above and beyond... A few weeks before our wedding, there was a really bad storm in our area and a lot of places lost power for a few days. Nadia told me she had lost power in her building and of course the elevator was out, but she is that dedicated that she lugged her Harp down a few flight of stairs to be able to play for a wedding. Now that is the kind of dedication I would want in a vendor!

    It was a wonderful experience for us to have Nadia Pessoa play her harp at our wedding reception. Nadia is a very talented harpist and her professionalism, personality and music added a touch of class to our wedding reception. Our guests were thrilled by the music she played and her playing was at the right volume for our guests to talk while enjoying beautiful renditions of our favorite jazz and classical tunes. Nadia is easy to work with, shows up on time for events and is very personable. She played flawlessly throughout our reception and even included an extra tune into her repertoire in honor of the place of our engagement - Paris, France. She is very accommodating and worked with our reception timetable to make our special day even more special. We highly recommend this outstanding and talented harpist for such venues and we would hire her again in a heartbeat! You can't go wrong with Nadia!

    We thoroughly enjoyed the ceremony music provided by Nadia. She is an incredible musician who impressed everyone at our wedding. She allowed us to select music from a diverse selection of songs... i.e. classical, modern, songs from movie soundtracks, etc. She definitely made our ceremony romantic and memorable. Would we recommend her to others? ABSOLUTELY!!!

    We engaged Nadia Pessoa to play the harp at our recent wedding. We could not have been happier with our choice! She played some ‘prelude’ music as guests were arriving, and then two pieces we had chosen to accompany the entrance of the Matron of Honor and of the Bride. During the ceremony, she accompanied our soloist who sang three beautiful songs. She then played throughout the cocktail hour and dinner.
    Nadia was a joy to work with from initial planning, through her rehearsing with our soloist, to her performance on the day. The ceremony was held outdoors on a hot June day, under the partial shade of some trees and with just enough breeze to make the heat tolerable. Nadia took it in her stride!
    Apart from the pieces we had chosen for the processional and ceremony, we had left he choice of music to Nadia, having discussed with her our broad ‘likes’ and ‘dislikes’. She selected pieces that fitted the occasion perfectly, as many of our guests commented. Her sensitive playing during the ceremony evoked an unexpectedly emotional response from several of the guests.
    We are so thankful that we found Nadia. She brought a lovely touch of romance and style to our special day, and we would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending her for yours.

    We had the harp & cello combination for our wedding. The music was beautiful and both musicians were great at transitioning, and melding the music to fit various time constraints during the ceremony. Nadia was great at suggesting various music pieces, and willing to learn pieces that she was unfamiliar with in a short timespan. Thanks Nadia!

    We were very pleased with the services provided by Nadia Pessoa. She played beautifully, and added an extra dimension to our wedding reception. She also arranged to have two other musicians play at our wedding ceremony and with whom we were also very happy. Nadia was easy to contact and was very responsive to our needs. I would certainly recommend her to others seeking musical services.

    Nadia was the perfect musical accompaniment for our spring wedding ceremony and cocktail hour. Nadia was incredibly professional and easy to work with in the months planning the wedding. She gave us a vast list of songs to choose from for before, during, and after the ceremony as well as the cocktail hour. She also helped us narrow down our style for music and ways to get in our favorite songs. Nadia knew the perfect mix of traditional and modern songs to make our wedding personal but classic. She was easily adaptable to last minute changes and I knew I didn't have to worry about a thing day-of. Everyone loved having the harp music and it really set the perfect tone for our wedding.

    Nadia played the harp at my wedding with Megan, who played flute. They were incredibly professional and accommodating. I wanted non-traditional music and they worked with me to pick songs that were fitting for the occasion. Nadia and Megan played beautiful versions of the Final Fantasy theme song for our processional, the Princess Bride wedding song for my walk down the aisle, and the Game of Thrones theme song for our recessional. The music sounded amazing and elegant and all of our guests loved it.

    Nadia stepped in at the last moment. She made me feel like she had been with me the whole time. She answered all my emails quickly, and was easy to talk to on the phone. She went ahead of time to the site to check it out and make sure everything would be ok. She played beautiful music and even accompanied my cousin as she sang. I would highly recommend Nadia.

    Nadia played beautifully for my outdoor wedding. I'm a music teacher and had lots of musician friends as guests. Music was really important to me! Her selections for the prelude were perfect. She accompanied a choral ensemble, played a duet with my cellist daughter, as well as the traditional wedding march. I highly recommend Nadia for your wedding.

    Nadia Pessoa is and extraordinarily talented Master HARPIST. Kind & Very Professional

    Nadia Pessoa is INCREDIBLE! She is insanely talented, humble, affable, hard-working and considerate. She is the consummate professional, and will work to make your big day a memorable one. She is a genius harpist. Nadia's rates were very reasonable.

    My wife and I enjoyed her performance immensely! She was absolutely amazing. Her collaboration with our reverend was pure genius. We found it particularly moving.

    Our guests cannot stop raving about her. Our parents were totally thrilled by her performance! My grandmother commented that she was not aware that music emanating from a harp could be so beautiful, powerful, and vibrant. We only wish that we could have remained in 'the chapel' for more of her performance. We were quickly whisked away (by design) following the ceremony, so as to maximize our time with the photographer, while most our guests remained in our makeshift chapel, and were treated to her full performance!

    Nadia made our wedding ceremony a wonderful and memorable event. We cannot say enough good things about her, or recommend her more highly! Working with her was an absolute delight. We would love to collaborate with her again, in the very near future!

    Sincerely,

    Brett & Hannah Latham
