Review by Kristina L.

Wedding•Reviewed on July 6, 2007•From Fort Wayne, IN

Devon was very helpful and accommodating through our planning process. We were at the park early for photos and had assigned several groomsmen to assist her when she arrived - but she was already there and set up! As the guests arrived, they were greeted with the Her graceful presence and beautiful music was astonishing! The music filled the park like a symphony, and the timing of all the songs were perfect! My only regret is that we did not have a video camera dedicated solely for her performance. We cannot express our appreciation and admiration for Devon enough! Thank You so much!!!!! Michael and Kristina Esposito

My daughter and I corresponded with Devon primarily through emails - she was always prompt and professional in her responses and we had no doubt that she would perform the musical selections my daughter requested and she was also very helpful in her suggestions. She arrived on time, was so nice in person and played the musical selections flawlessly as if we'd practiced many times. Thanks Devon, for making my daughter's wedding even more special - so many positive comments about the beauty of harp music for a wedding ceremony! Sincerely, Caroline Grieselhuber

Wedding•Reviewed on July 6, 2008•From Nashville, TN

Devon was very helpful as we planned this wedding for Nashville from Hawaii. Her talent and assistance with planning the wedding music was everything we hoped for at our wedding. We were thankful for her being a part of our beautiful wedding day and having her talent shared with all of us. Just hearing her harp play during the prelude to the wedding created the perfect ambiance for our special day. We would most definitely recommend her for other weddings as she is very talented and professional. Thank you Devon. Aloha, Jamie and Rob

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on June 24, 2012•From Holland, MI

Devon did an absolutely outstanding performance for us. Everyone was still talking about it throughout the afternoon and evening. They were particularly impressed with the diversity of her music and how talented she was. Two of our children remarked that she went from Rainbow Connection to Stairway to Heaven by Led Zeppelin and that it was absolutely amazing. We also heard comments from people in Holland State Park saying how beautiful it was to have a harp playing at the beach. Thank you for making our wedding even more special, Devon.

Being a landmark hotel on the National Register of Historic Places, we are quite picky about everything and everyone we bring into our building -- especially for Easter Brunch. With more than 650 people attending, it is a big annual event for us. Devon not only met but exceeded our every expectation. We received nothing but the highest compliments from everyone -- including our own staff! It is our honor to recommend her without exception.

I really enjoyed working with Devon. She was absolutely wonderful. She took plenty of time to help me select the right pieces for our ceremony. The music at our wedding was beautiful! I loved the whole experience.

Devon was great. The location of our ceremony changed so the start time did as well. She was very flexible. The music sounded lovely and the harp was beautiful!

Devon was wonderful. She was there and ready to go far before any of the guests arrived, and her music was beautiful. I would definitely recommend her to anyone!

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on May 16, 2011•From Fort Wayne, IN

Devon was very easy to work with. She was the harpist and she brought a flautist with her to play also. They did a beautiful job. She arrived at the courthouse in good time, so my stress was lightened. I appreciated that. In addition to playing with the flautist, Devon accompanied me on "The Lord's Prayer". We had met together earlier to rehearse at her home. It was a joy to work with someone who really knows what she is doing. Overall, a positive experience. You won't go wrong hiring Devon Haupt.

Wedding•Reviewed on May 25, 2008•From Merrillville, IN

Everyone commented on the beautiful music and sound of the harp andd could not believe that the her harp was so beautiful. They said that it should have been more in the forefront of the wedding because of its beauty! She was amazing and was really great about keeping the surprise for my guests and my grooms. We were very pleased and would love to have her at future events.

Festival•Reviewed on July 27, 2007•From Whiting, IN

I was very pleased with her performance. I was a little concerned since it had rained earlier in the day that she would be unable to bring her instrument out but it seemed to cause no problems. She added some class to our Pierogi Fest.

Devon Haupt, Harpist was great and my guests were moved and attentive to her performances.Her voice is a cut above the rest and her playing style is amazing. She is very, very, very talented and really classed up the event. Devon arrived on time, proved to be very flexible and open to sudden changes. She managed her instrument with incredible ease and played with absolute perfection. I look forward to hiring and hearing her for my next event. Thanks -Larry M. Chicago Gig ID #: 516674

Devon and Jeff were very responsive and professional from my first contact with them. Jeff was our harpist. He gave me guidance on music selection when asked. He arrived early to check out the venue and set up. His playing was beautiful. I wouldn't hesitate to use him again or to recommend him.

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on September 12, 2012•From Washington, MI

We couldn't have been happier with Devon's professionalism and performance. She promptly returned our phone call and was very helpful and pleasant. She was more than happy to travel from Indiana to Michigan (4 hours) to play for our daughter's wedding ceremony. Devon is extremely talented and the music she played was beautiful and memorable. I can recommend Devon without any reservation whatsoever. You'll love her!!

Review by Shannon S.

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on October 14, 2010•From Chaska, MN

I was incredibly impressed by Devon and Jeff. I had a couple of special songs I wanted played for my wedding. One of them had vocals in it. Devon did a search for sheet music online, and they performed the pieces beautifully! Devon sang for the piece with vocals while Jeff played. It was exactly what I had wanted! I also had a few younger kids at the wedding, and after the ceremony they were curious about the harps. When a couple of them came up and started playing with them, instead of getting angry and yelling at them to stop, Devon and Jeff started teaching them some easy songs to play. I would highly recommend them for any event you're planning!!
