I had the pleasure of having Eleanora perform at my birthday party, and it was an absolutely enchanting experience. Eleanora played a variety of pieces, including classical music and some contemporary songs. Every piece was performed beautifully. Eleanora was also personable and easy to work with. She scheduled a call with me to discuss the event in the weeks leading up to it and this ensured that everything ran smoothly the day of. Overall, having Eleanora play at my birthday party was an absolute highlight of the event. She added such a special touch to the celebration, and I know that my guests and I will never forget the experience.Thank you for making my birthday party so special!

Thank you, Brandace! I particularly enjoyed playing for you and Mateus, since you were so easy to work with and enthusiastic of my music! It was a pleasure to accomodate your song selection and a joy to play at your marvelous location!
Thanks for your kind words.
I wish you and Mateus a life together full of love !
Eleonora was incredible to work with and her music was absolutely perfect for our wedding. When planning, she was incredibly organized. She reached out to us with everything she needed from us at just the right moments. It made planning a breeze. She also accommodated special requests and got her harp a mile deep into the SF Botanical Gardens, across wood ships and dirt paths. She went truly above and beyond!
Her music was also perfect for our special day. My mother called it “serene,” and she was absolutely right. It struck all the right cords at all the right moments, and I can’t imagine a better sonic backdrop for our wedding and reception! Thank you!!!!

Dear Gladys, so happy to hear how much you and your guests loved my music! You were a dream to work with!
Eleonora played at our wedding on 10/29 in Bodega Bay, and was absolutely fantastic to work with. She learned special songs for us ("Married Life" from the Disney movie Up), and played everything beautifully. Highly highly recommend her for any events!

Response from Eleonora Pellegrini, Harpist:
Thanks Adrian! Your wedding was definitely the most creative I saw and it was a true joy for me to be part of it.
I found Eleonora through GigSalad and was pleasantly surprised that she was available on my wedding date.
I was looking for a harpist that could play modern and traditional wedding/ love songs. I wanted to have music play as guests arrived at the ceremony, during the ceremony and during cocktail hour. The music added a special touch to the classic romantic spring vibe that I was seeking.
There were some minor delays with waiting for the guests to be seated so that the ceremony could start on time. I'm thinking there was some miscommunication with the ques from DJ & wedding coordinator & harpist, I was expecting my bridal party to walk down to the song "My Girl", but a different song was being played which through me off a little.
Eleonora was able to accommodate my requests for playing "Grow Old With You" as I walked down the aisle, and once I recognized my song, I let them know that was my turn to walk down.
The song captured all the emotions I was feeling in that moment, and it was perfect! During my husband's vows he actually sang part of the song too! (I ugly cried with tears of joy) Once we were announced husband & wife and walked out with the bridal party, I believe that's when "My Girl" was being played.
In all I would say the day was perfectly imperfect, and still with some minor hiccups here and there -my husband and I were still pleased with how our wedding turned out. I would recommend Eleonora for any special event. Her music really elevated the ceremony and made it more special to be able to share those specific songs with our friends and family.
