Iraida is a consummate musician! Her harp performance at our wedding rehearsal and lunch was fantastically beautiful and masterly. Her choice of repertoire and it's execution was superb and added so much to our wedding celebration. Many of our guests remarked on her excellent playing. In addition, she is also charming, very professional and easy to work with. We will definitely recommend her enthusiastically to our friends and relatives! Thank you, Iraida for making our special day one that we will never forget! Sincerely, Evelyn & Paul Askew

Wow! Absolutely wonderful. Had a few musicians sitting at my table and they were blown away by the harpist. Loved her.
Easy to interact with, gracious, and punctual with communication via emails/phone. Arrived at the ceremony in plenty of time to set up.

To say that Iraida was fantastic would be an understatement. Amazing, phenomenal! From the moment she touches the strings you realize that this is a Concert Artist. It is not just a mere party music but a highly rated performance.
Repeated customer. Will definitely hire her again!

Iraida was a joy to work with. I had pretty specific requests for the music at my sister’s wedding reception, and she designed the perfect playlist. Not only that, but I wrote a short piece on violin for my sister and her new husband, and wanted it to be accompanied on the harp. Iraida ran through it once with me before the reception, helped to solidify the chords, and together we played a beautiful piece of music for the happy bride and groom with minimal rehearsal. I highly recommend Iraida: she is amiable, accommodating, and very talented!

Iraida performance was a lovely addition to our day. Iraida played beautifully during the cocktail hour and dinner of our wedding reception. Her service was seamless, and she is extremely professional and easy to work with. We *highly* recommend her to anyone looking for a harpist!

Iraida was absolutely amazing, she was also very flexible and helpful when I wanted to add a violinist. As my first time using this service, she was extremely patient and understanding. I was planning my own wedding, working a full-time job, and finishing my last semester of law school. Her flexibility and patience was a true blessing for my big weekend! The music was heavenly and angelic. Thank you so much, words cannot express my gratitude!! Sincerely, the new Mrs. Richmond.

Iraida played the harp for about 20 minutes prior to the service, very quietly, tastefully, and beautifully during the ceremony, and for about 20 minutes following the ceremony, much of which we weren't able to attend. What we did hear was outstanding and we are looking forward to hearing the rest when our video arrives. Iraida was completely flexible, accommodating, and responsive to our requests. In addition to asking for specific songs, we also shared with her the experience we wanted to create for our guests. She interpreted that into her beautiful selections. Our guests were so impressed with her that they clapped after her selections as though at a concert.

We were truly fortunate to have A-1 Harpist play at our son's wedding. Professional, courteous and kind--which was particularly appreciated because wedding planning can be difficult-- A-1 Harpist consulted a number of times with my son and his fiancee to ensure that their musical preferences were played in the manner desired. Most importantly, A-1 Harpist's performance was sublime and enhanced an unforgettable wedding celebration. Indeed, while on honeymoon, my son and his new wife texted A-1 Harpist to underscore once more their joy at A-1 Harpist's remarkable performance. We are grateful for A-1 Harpist sharing such great musical gifts with us.

Extraordinarily talented performer! Iraida played during a cocktail hour for our event in March 2019. All our guests loved hearing her play, and we especially appreciate that she took the time to learn several special requests. Thank you Iraida!!
