“Reidun and Barry played for our church ceremony in July. They were truly outstanding! The music they played on the day was tasteful and the combination of Harp, whistle and Uileann Pipes created a lovely traditional sound, which was exactly what we were hoping for. They were extremely professional and helpful throughout the whole process. Overall we are delighted with Reidun and Barry and couldn’t recommend them highly enough. Thank you both!” Colm & Roisin.

“We feel so blessed to have such a fabulous musician like Reidun to play for our wedding. She played so beautifully that it became one of the highlights of the whole ceremony that everyone was talking about. Not only did she perform wonderfully with all the various music pieces we asked for, she was there long before the ceremony and the Harp sound she produced was perfect for the little chapel. We can highly recommend Reidun for any couple’s special day, especially if you want to bring that ‘wow’ factor to your ceremony”. Brendan and Nikki

“Reidun is a wonderfully talented harpist. Booking her was made easier by being able to check out her repertoire on her website and YouTube. Even during the various lockdowns and changing restrictions she was so easy to contact and communicate with. On the day itself, even the snow and icy roads didn’t stop her. I think harp music is particularly nice with the smaller weddings but we chose to add Barry to accompany the harp. He is talented on many instruments. He also sang the Psalm for us. Great duo. Apart from the music, Reidun’s smile was very reassuring as I could see her throughout the ceremony while our friends and family sat behind us. Highly recommend!!” Eimear & Con
Outdoor performances:
As for outdoor performances: I usually don’t play outdoors in the winter (between Mid-October & Mid-March). If we’re lucky and it’s dry and above 15 degrees centigrade I’m happy to play outdoors though! I’d need to be sheltered from the wind, if there is on the day, because wind interferes with the strings. As for temperature/dampness: the speed of the tunes will be affected by cold weather conditions. If it is cold and damp, my fingers will be stiff and the harp, usually kept at room temperature, will get out of tune. If it’s raining, an alternative location must be provided.
