She helped make it such a magical event.
— Michelle Whitfill
She is the best!
"I am incredibly excited to write this review for Valerie. When I first contacted her
I had no idea what to expect, since I literally found her information on the internet. She immediately responded to my email and we connected right away.
She agreed to play for my daughter's wedding and even created a beautiful rendition of a Tchaikovsky piece for the processional. She was wonderful to work with, professional, and exceeded every expectation we had. Our guests are still talking about how beautiful and magical the music was. I cannot say enough about Valerie's professionalism and artistry. I highly recommend Valerie for anyone looking for something special for any occasion."

Everyone loved her!
"Working with Valerie was a pleasure! On the day of our wedding, she was on time, made sure to review the game plan for the evening and she handled it from there. Everyone loved her and the harp was the perfect addition to our cocktail hour and ceremony. Now, when people ask for recommendations I always bring Valerie up! If the opportunity ever comes along I will reach out
to her again."

Amazing harpist
While planning our wedding, we had decided on a small, intimate event, that would include only our closest family and friends. We had decided to have a harpist provide the ceremony music.
Our wedding planner introduced us to Valerie and Valerie was able to provide the ambiance we were looking for with her music. She played prior to the ceremony, during the ceremony and after. She asked for our song requests and made our wedding ceremony so unique and special! Valerie was pleasant to work with, accommodating and most of all a true professional. If you are looking for a talented harpist for your wedding or any other event, I highly recommend Valerie...again, thank you Valerie for making our special day so special! — Paula Browne
Convenient to work with, personable musician & beautiful music!
"I planned my wedding from out of state, so most of my communications with Valerie were over e-mail. She was very responsive and had good suggestions, which made planning a breeze. I was delighted that everything went as expected — she was at the ceremony venue on time and played a beautiful prelude, ceremony and post-ceremony music. The volume was lovely — soft, but still filled the space (Mural Room at the Santa Barbara Courthouse) with a romantic atmosphere. Truly a treat for our guests — I highly recommend! Great value too"
— Erika
The perfect way to set the tone for our ceremony!
"Valerie was the perfect choice for our wedding ceremony music! Her selection of music made it simple to choose songs, and the ease of her setup was perfect for the venue we chose. Valerie's professionalism from the moment we contacted her made it so easy to trust her which, as a planning bride, is everything!"
— Mary Catherine
"So happy we booked her for our wedding! Valerie was amazing & we highly recommend her for your wedding!"

A Magnificent, Elegant and Warm Musician.
"Hiring Valerie to play at our wedding ceremony was one of the best decisions we made on our wedding day. She is a wonderful harpist and her music is elegant and magical. We had an outside ceremony and Valerie was at the front of our venue playing under a tree surrounded by white flower petals. She immediately drew everyone into her performance and our guests truly enjoyed listening to her. I could hear applause as I waited behind the scenes for our ceremony to begin. Her list of song choices is a perfect mix of classical, traditional and contemporary. She played the traditional songs we had chosen until after the ceremony when we walked back down the aisle to Bruno Mars, Marry You. So fun! Valerie is easy to work with and after our ceremony, she gave us both a big hug, she felt like a member of our family. She was the perfect choice for our Wedding Day!"
— Robin B.
Valerie was wonderful to work with
"We booked her for my daughter's NYE wedding at the Santa Barbara courthouse. Besides songs on her repertoire, she played songs we chose that were not on her list such as "Stairway to Heaven", a Led Zepplin song that sounded absolutely wonderful the way she played it on her harp! My daughter's wedding ceremony was truly unforgettable in part because of Valerie's beautiful music. You cannot go wrong booking her for your special day!" — Gabriele

The perfect touch!
After doing my research and emailing a few other harpists, Valerie was the most professional and sweet. I hired Valerie for my intimate wedding on September 8th and it was the best decision I made. She played at my wedding dinner for an hour and did an amazing job :). I requested some songs and she played them all beautifully, I can’t thank her enough!! I really recommend her for any special events. — Liz
