• Our experience with Marissa was excellent! She was very accomodating when we had to delay our initial meeting due to a death in the family and came through with fabulous music for both the ceremony and reception. She was very willing to step over to the piano for the hymns, while doing the rest of the music on her harp. We had tons of compliments. My daughter was especially thrilled with her selection of Celtic music vs the more traditional classical choice. Definitely a great choice! -- Betsy A, Plymouth, MN, 6/20/2009
