Feedback from a recent wedding where I was the bride’s chauffeur.
I was a chauffeur at a recent wedding when I heard Harriet playing the violin for a church wedding. As I stood attentively by my car listening to the echo of the acoustic coming from the church hall I was mesmerised. Pure class and a lovely ambiance.
I have a recital in three days times and I approached Harriet to see whether she could record a violin score for me as I was playing a classical piano piece and needed some backing.
Even though she said she was busy…48 hours later she sends me a recording for me to use on Saturday for my piano recital. I could kiss this woman till she blushes. Talk about exceeding expectations. This violinist is just pure class and very talented.

Our wedding day
Harriett played at our wedding ceremony and reception. Her music was just what we wanted and made our day perfect. All our guests commented on how amazing she was. We highly recommend Harriett's service at your wedding!

Brother's wedding
Harriette played violin beautifully for my brother's wedding. She arranged slipped away by perfume genius for them to walk down the aisle to. Also provided music before the service and brought a tear to my mum's eye when she played Can't help falling in love by Elvis Presley.

Incredible!
Harriette was just fabulous. From the moment I saw a few clips, I knew she would be great but she surpassed all expectations! We opted for her Ceremony package but I regret not getting her to play more. She went above and beyond to make our wedding day so special for us, learning songs that meant a lot to us including one particularly difficult one in a short space of time! She was great at communicating throughout and on the day played so beautifully AND even coordinated attire with our festive theme! All in all 11/10 and would highly recommend for your wedding day 🌟
