About

As a professional harpist, I perform classical, contemporary, and ambient music. I go off the feeling of the room, the event, the ceremony, and the situation. I have an extensive repertoire and I've played many weddings in the UK and abroad.

Rachel played at our wedding in June and was absolutely perfect!

She was so lovely and accommodating despite some issues we had with our venue.

Rachel is amazingly talented and made our day even more perfect. Having her as part of our day was one of our best decisions and our guests wouldn’t stop raving about her afterwards! Truly 5 stars.

Rachel was amazing from start to finish. From our first point of contact everything was so easy to organise and Rachel really helped us decide and choose our music for our wedding. We really wanted a couple of particular songs during our service and this was no issue for Rachel. After our service, Rachel was spoken very highly about throughout our guest and we really felt she was the final piece in making our wedding so special. We really can not thank Rachel enough for being a big part of our perfect day. We would highly recommend anyone wanting a harpist for there special day to look no further, Rachel is your lady.

Rachel was fantastic.
Before the wedding she asked if there were any particular songs we wanted to play, and if there was anything not on her repertoire she could try and learn it.
When it came to the day, she played beautifully! It was such a lovely addition during the drinks reception and our guests keep mentioning how wonderful it was.
The music was a mix of our favourites with both classic and modern music being played on harp, it was so good!
Cannot thank Rachel enough for playing for us, it really was perfect ❤️

Having Rachel play at our wedding was the best decision we made. Not only is she absolutely delightful and very accommodating, she is also very professional and very talented. She learned a few new songs for us and made the night one to remember for years to come.
My guests were amazed by the different genres of music she could play!
Definitely one of the highlights of the whole day!
Can’t wait for another celebration for her to play again!

Wow wow wow
Rachel is not only a lovely woman that gets back to you quickly if you have any concerns. But is absolutely amazing at playing her harp.
Rachel played at my wedding and just blew the whole wedding party away.
Rachel was very smartly dressed for the occasion too.

Rachel was always happy to learn songs if she doesn’t already know it and nothing was ever to much.

A massive well done to you Rachel and a massive thank you for helping us celebrate our beautiful day.

Rachel playing at our wedding was the perfect addition to a great day. Her music was beautiful and really set the mood! When I had to change my walking down the aisle song last minute Rachel instantly solved my panic with a perfect recommendation. Rachel offered a perfect blend of song requests and suggestions, and was so accommodating of all our choices! We requested one particular song to be played during the drinks reception, and Rachel waited for us to be in the room after our photos to play it, which was such a lovely touch. She made the whole process so easy and seamless, and it was such a joy to have her at our day. I can’t recommend her enough, she made our day extra special! Thank you rachel! More...

From my first contact with rachel, I knew she as oing to be the Harpist I wanted at our wedding she was willing to listen and understnd what we wanted . Rachel very kindly learned to play Summer in Siam by The Pogues for me, which I cannot imagine is an easy task on the Harp. I would highly recommend her as would all my guests. Thank you once again Rachel.

Our event is not until Feb 2023, however all my communication has gone so smoothly with Rachel. Rachel has understood my requirements before I have asked them and built it into the plan for the day. I am sure that on the day it will all go well ... I am very excited to hear Rachel playing the harp. More...

Q&As

I love playing songs people don’t expect. I love playing to people

I’m lucky enough to have an income from something I love doing.

I’m a unique harpist. I’m very personable and I love to write my own arrangements of songs and requests!

I play for care homes remotely which I find very rewarding and I know the residents really enjoy it.

I have a portable Amp so I can be tucked into a corner but can still be heard, making a bit more space between myself and the client and their guests.

Services

I enjoy writing music and new arrangements of songs you may not expect to hear on the harp.
I have a huge repertoire list and years of experience supplying beautiful harp music for every occasion.
