Thank you so much for playing on our special day, you did a fantastic job and even learned a song specifically for our ceremony, which we really appreciated.
We loved the vast range of options you had for us to choose from for our drinks reception and you played beautifully.

5 stars - Highly Recommend Madeline for Weddings!
Madeline's performance at our wedding ceremony and drinks reception added such a special touch to the atmosphere of the day. She is a highly talented musician, and it was an absolute pleasure to work with her!
Madeline was super organized leading up to the big day, and on the event day, she was a true professional. Her carefully selected songs created the dream ambiance we were hoping for. Our guests loved sitting around the tables outside during the drinks reception, just admiring the beautiful atmosphere Madeline helped craft.
We highly recommend Madeline for any wedding or event. She is not only incredibly talented but also a lovely person who takes her craft very seriously. She helped make our special day even more perfect!

A beautiful touch of class!
Madeline played at our ceremony. We chose Katie Melua's 'wonderful life' and then Metallica's 'nothing else matters', which she played with such class and style, despite our eclectic choices! Not only this but Madeline then had a whole repertoire of music to take our guests through the beginning and end of ceremony as well as during the prosecco on the lawn. We can't thank you enough.

She learnt a few songs we requested (but also has HUGE repertoire list)! Having a harp one thing my husband wanted on the day and I am so glad we did, Madeline was amazing! Thank you for being part of our day Madeline!

Amazing Harpist!
Madeline played at our wedding back in April 2022. She stepped in when our original booking wasn't able to make it, and was able to play all of our requested songs despite having less time to learn them.
The music on the day was beautiful and all our guests mentioned how amazing Madeline was. To this day whenever we see our guests they still talk about the music and how fantastic it was.
Madeline was very responsive when communicating with her which made planning the day so much less stressful.
When we met Madeline in person on the day she was so lovely! She was more than happy to set up in our ceremony area and then move to our reception area after the ceremony. We were so swept up in having our photos taken that we didn't realise she had moved to our reception area which was a lovely surprise to come back to.
Thank you so much Madeline - you are amazing! We would 100% recommend you to anyone wanting a Harpist. xx

August Wedding at Skylark Farm
Our wedding guests really enjoyed listening to Madeline. Her music added something special to the atmosphere of the day. We made three song requests which Madeline played beautifully and we have found her very friendly and accommodating throughout. If you’re wondering whether to hire Madeline, we’d definitely recommend it!

Wedding @ Pendrell Hall
It was truly amazing having Madeline play her beautiful Harp for our outdoor wedding ceremony and drinks reception recently.
The music she played was absolutely beautiful. Nothing was too much trouble for Madeline and an absolute pleasure liasing with her leading upto the wedding and arranging our pieces of music. We are so happy that we chose Madeline to play as part of our big day.
