Gifted, Peaceful, and an Absolute Dream to Work With!

Working with Rebecca for our wedding was an absolute dream. She is a remarkably gifted harpist who emanates peace, kindness, and warmth. From our very first conversation, planning with her was completely effortless and stress-free. On our big day, her music created a truly magical atmosphere that my husband and I will cherish forever. Having Rebecca as part of our wedding was so special, and I cannot recommend her highly enough to any couple looking for a talented, caring musician!

Rebecca short of exceptional

Rebecca was absolutely incredible at our recent awards reception in Philadelphia. From the moment she arrived, she brought such a calm, professional presence, and her music was just beautiful. She had a fantastic selection of pieces to choose from, and our guests were thrilled that she was open to taking special requests on the spot!

Everyone kept commenting on how much her performance elevated the atmosphere. She was so easy to work with from start to finish—responsive, organized, and just a joy to have at the event. If I ever plan another event in Philly, I’d reach out to her again in a heartbeat.

Wonderful!

Rebecca performed at our wedding in Philadelphia and she was wonderful! Rebecca created a romantic ambiance for our small wedding. Her performance also elevated the feel of our wedding and made it very elegant. Rebecca is wonderful to work with, communicative, offers her support when developing the list of songs, and made everything very easy for us. She seamlessly set up and broke down. We 1000% recommend booking with Rebecca.

Amazing harpist & great service

Rebecca played beautifully for our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour. She was laid back and easy to communicate with throughout the planning process, and she was very adaptable to some unfavorable weather conditions. She couldn’t find any existing sheet music for the song we requested for our procession, so she kindly offered to write an arrangement of it!
