Raleigh Wedding at Maxwell with Black bride and Filippino groom

“Working with Sarah for my wedding was an absolute delight. She played beautifully and two weeks later our wedding guests are still raving about how beautiful she played! From beginning to end, Sarah was extremely professional, patient, and understanding with us. She was always available to answer any questions that we may have had and her extensive song list was perfect with a great combination of various genres of music. She even learned a new song that I really loved and wanted played during the ceremony! We would highly recommend Sarah! and it was such an absolute pleasure working with her. She was the perfect addition to our wedding day! Thank you so much for a memorable day!”

“We hired Sarah to provide music at our wedding, partly because of her amazing song selection, and partly because of her support of the LGBT community. She far exceeded my expectations, and the next excuse I have to hire her, I'd love to! It was so easy to work with her. I cried after our first meeting, because I finally felt calm and supported. We both cried listening to a recording of a song she arranged/played for us. She provided clear communication, enthusiastically knew how to support our visions and make our day work the way we wanted, and made me feel at-ease about the capital-W Wedding Day. During our wedding, my guests LOVED her and we even had a sing-along during dinner. Five Stars, would shop again. Sarah- THANK YOU”

Downtown Raleigh wedding

“Sarah played for our wedding and was the best in every category! She was quick to respond or help throughout our planning process, and we got a ton of compliments from our guests on the big day. She also has a large library of songs available and even played one that wasn't listed at our request. I'd highly recommend her for any wedding, event, or party. Thanks again, Sarah!

“Sarah was the best part of our wedding! She is a fantastic musician and has so many songs in her repertoire, it was so hard to choose! We loved working with her and she made our ceremony so magical. You will be in good hands if you chose Sarah for your event. I cannot recommend her enough!”

Colorful and whimsical summer Durham wedding

“We thought of a harpist for our ceremony late in the wedding planning (about 3 months before our day). We found Sarah who provided a large playlist of songs and was well receptive to our thoughts. On the wedding day she found her place easily and was full of positive energy. We are so glad we met her and recommend her for anyone looking for a harpist or just something different than DJ for ceremony. Having a live musician play definitely gave a touch of elegance to our ceremony that we cannot envision without now.”

Apex Wedding

“Sarah did an amazing job at our wedding! She was very professional and easy to work with. I appreciated her responsiveness on e-mail. Her song list had plenty of variety for us to choose from and met our ceremony needs perfectly!! Seriously everyone should have a harpist at their wedding! I genuinely enjoyed hearing her play while I was tucked away as guests arrived. Her sound is graceful and relaxing— exactly what I needed in that moment. I highly recommend Hummingbird Harmonies!!”
