Thank you Leah!
Leah was great to work with. I loved that her website had samples to listen to and choose from. Her beautiful harp music was exactly what we wanted and made our day feel so special. It was perfect for our ceremony and cocktail hour. She is very responsive and professional. Thank you!

Leah was really friendly and helpful throughout the process, guiding us as we met with her to pick out the music for our ceremony and arrange all of the details for our big day. And the music was just beautiful -- it lent just the right air of elegance to the whole affair, and a lot of people came up to us later and commented on how much they'd loved her playing. We're so glad we hired her to play for our wedding -- she did a great job and really added a lot to our special day.Leah was really friendly and helpful throughout the process, guiding us as we met with her to pick out the music for our ceremony and arrange all of the details for our big day.

To say that the music that Leah creates with her harp is great would be the largest understatement! The music that Leah creates is the most amazing and beautiful sound and we are so happy to have found her. Leah provided a fantastic repertoire for our Catholic Church wedding and our guests had nothing but positive things to say about her. It was so great working with a harpist who was familiar with how a mass went and she went above and beyond to make sure that everything was perfect. We definitely recommend Leah The Upstate Harpist to anyone who is in need of a musician for their special day!To say that the music that Leah creates with her harp is great would be the largest understatement!

If I could give Leah 1,000 stars, I would.... She was absolutely amazing to work with and went above and beyond for us! After having some communication issues with our Deacon about our ceremony program, Leah stepped right in and rectified everything and I did not have to worry about a thing! I would recommend her to anyone and everyone looking for a professional yet personable performer for any type of event, especially your wedding!!

I always dreamed of having a harp play at my wedding, and Leah made it possible. It was a perfect addition to help capture the moment and the church sounds beautiful. It added uniqueness and a sense of serenity to our special day. She also have such a variety of songs choices and music styles to choose from. She is incredibly talented and we are so luck to have found her. I would recommend her to anyone looking for ceremony music.I always dreamed of having a harp play at my wedding, and Leah made it possible.

Leah is amazing! The harp is such an elegant and beautiful touch to a ceremony. For me this was one of my favorite aspects of the wedding. Leah is great because she is open to learning music and incorporates modern songs into her portfolio. We even kept the harpist through cocktail hour and it added some elegant background music while people chat and munch. Several people commented to me on how they truly enjoyed the harp.Leah is amazing! The harp is such an elegant and beautiful touch to a ceremony.

Leah did a great job with our wedding ceremony music. It sounded beautiful and we got a lot of compliments from our guests on it. Leah was very easy to work with and flexible. She played a mix of music before the ceremony and then did a great job with the songs we picked out for the entrance, exit and ceremony itself. We had a fairly cold outside day (58ish degrees) and our ceremony started 25 min later than planned. Leah played during the entire time the guests were waiting so a huge thanks to her! Highly recommend!Leah did a great job with our wedding ceremony music. It sounded beautiful and we got a lot of compliments from our guests on it. Leah was very easy to work with and flexible.

I was looking for an elegant and classical musician for our pre-ceremony, ceremony and cocktail hour and when I on Leah's website www.upstateharpist.com I instantly knew that she was exactly what I was looking for. She had a wide selection of songs which allowed me to personalize my pre reception entertainment. The problem I had was the songs were all so beautiful I had quite a difficult time making my choices.

I enjoyed working with Leah, she was willing to try something new and it was amazing, she was easy to talk to, responded quickly to emails and calls and provided a service that people still talk about from our special day. I have recommended her to several friends and plan on working with her again in the future.I enjoyed working with Leah, she was willing to try something new and it was amazing, she was easy to talk to, responded quickly to emails and calls and provided a service that people still talk about from our special day.

The Upstate Harpist AKA Leah was amazing! My husband and I wanted our wedding ceremony to be romantic and although the church would have provided us with an organist we wanted our ceremony music to be softer than an organ. Leah did a fantastic job, the harp sounded great in the church and was exactly what my husband and I envisioned. Leah is easy to work with, professional and thorough. I would highly recommend her services.The Upstate Harpist AKA Leah was amazing!

Leah Kidwell-Fernandes, The Upstate Harpist played at my daughter's June 15, 2013 wedding at the Killington Grand, in Killington, Vermont.
Leah was amazing to work with, quick to respond, pleasant and very professional. Besides her own repertoire at the wedding, she made an extra effort to work with myself(mother of the bride), sister and nephew who were singing at the wedding.
Leah played prior too, during the ceremony and for our cocktail hour. The music of the harp was so beautiful and relaxing, it really set the scene for a wonderful ceremony and day. We would recommend Leah highly.Leah Kidwell-Fernandes, The Upstate Harpist played at my daughter's June 15, 2013 wedding at the Killington Grand, in Killington, Vermont.

Wonderful absolutely wonderful. She was easily accessible and made the whole process effortless. It was so much fun listening to her music and picking out the songs we wanted her to play. She was even willing to meet and play any of her songs for us in case we were unsure. Our guests all commented on how beautiful the music was and how it added so much to our ceremony. I can't wait to get the video back so I can hear the music all over again. I am so glad we found her she made the ceremony extra special. I am forever grateful.Wonderful absolutely wonderful.

Leah provided the most beautiful music for our outside ceremony. We were able to meet with her a couple months before the ceremony to hear her music, make song selections, and see her beautiful harp! Leah was so great with communication throughout the planning process. Her rates were so reasonable. You won't regret choosing Leah!Leah provided the most beautiful music for our outside ceremony.

Leah was an absolute pleasure to work with. I was a bit overwhelmed with what songs to choose as I was having a full catholic mass but she made it so easy. Additionally our wedding ceremony was in a large old church so I had some concern that the sound of the harp would amplify enough. It absolutely did. The sound of the harp filled the church and it was so perfect. I highly recommend her to play at weddings and I will be recommending her to all friends and family. I could really not be any more pleased. I walked down the aisle to canon in d and the sound of the music was exactly what I had hoped! Thank you Leah!Leah was an absolute pleasure to work with.
