"We booked Luc Walpot to play at our winter wedding and we were not disappointed. His beautiful selection of music set the tone for the day and our guests were very complimentary. We would highly recommend Luc to anyone organising a wedding or for any event. His beautiful harp playing completed our intimate wedding. Many thanks. Simon and Leanne."

"We asked Harriet to play at our wedding probably 2 years ago now. Who knew what was to follow would cause so much uncertainty and upset. Throughout, Harriet kept in touch with us, each time we changed our date (thanks COVID!) Harriet obliged until finally we gave up rescheduling and opted to hold our day on what should've been our 1st anniversary. We'll fast forward to Nov 2021 and I can honestly say it was worth the wait. Harriet played beautifully, the sound was exquisite. We went a little off-piste with our exit choice, but Harriet made it sound gorgeous. I would wholeheartedly recommend Harriet and her harp to play at your function. She is a delight and you really won't regret it. "

"Sam, where do we start, this lady is a multitalented musician and made our wedding extra special. From start to finish her communication was outstanding and she bent over backwards to accommodate the requests we had for our wedding - all be it a bit odd. We aren’t big classical music fans, but her repertoire was so large there were plenty of modern songs to choose from. Sam played the wedding march when I walked down the aisle, and we had the Beatles when we were signing the register. Sam’s greatest achievement was learning ‘Anyone can fall in love’ - the Eastenders theme tune and playing it while our 80-odd guests sang along, laughing at the lyrics - she managed to keep everyone on track. Thank you so much for bringing our wedding to life with your harp - you had everyone mesmerised. We will never forget the joy you helped us create and the smiles on everyone’s faces."

"Meredith arrived in good time to set up before she was due to start playing. We all found her music so relaxing. Meredith played in the church while our guests arrived and whilst we signed the register. She then played for us at our reception, everybody has commented how she added a real touch of class to our wedding. We cannot thank her enough. Meredith you were amazing, thank you. Peter & Teresa x"

"Avoid this woman. We paid her £380 to play for an hour and a half in the woods during our wedding ceremony and drinks reception on Saturday 10th August, 2019. She played for half an hour before the ceremony and then wouldn’t play the remaining hour because she claimed the conditions weren’t appropriate. Her reasons are as follows... her fingers were too cold (it was 20 degrees) and a small branch fell on the wedding celebrant who was no way near Cecily (the celebrant carried on like a profession, I hasten to add). I asked Cecily for the money for the hour back and she refused. I therefore, am going to be looking into what legal action to take as I am not happy paying £380 for someone to play for half an hour! Cecily ruined our wedding day so don’t book her... she could ruin yours, too! "

N/B: Please note this booking was private and not through Last Minute Musicians. If it had, then the LMM contract would have made clear that the musician reserves the right to protect their instruments (and themselves) if the working environment become unreasonable or dangerous. On this day the MET office had issued a yellow warning for gale force winds and the weather conditions were a cause for concern. The wedding took place in a wood and as well as the celebrant being hit on the head by a falling branch, a much larger branch fell inches away from my harp after the ceremony. It is always difficult and upsetting to have to make the decision that it is unreasonable to continue playing when it is somebody's wedding day. I did, in fact, manage to play for 1/2 an hour before the ceremony and during the ceremony itself. When it was clear after the ceremony that there was no available option of moving inside, and after much consultation with ushers and friends of the couple, I made the decision that it was no longer a safe environment to work for me or the harp. I was assured by those I spoke to that the bride and groom would understand. The cold was a factor (high winds make the temperature feel much colder, and I would like to add several guests did put on their coats. I was also kindly offered a jacket) but not the reason for having to curtail this booking after 1 hour of playing. It is sometimes possible to deal with the ill effects of playing in the cold but the issue here was the lack of back up plan when the weather made the working environment dangerous. Nobody should be expected to work in an unsafe environment or put their extremely expensive and delicate instrument (as well as themselves) at risk when their livelihood depends on it. I would hope that having managed to play before and during the ceremony (and before the couple departed for photographs) that the decision made did not ruin anyone's wedding day. Naturally I am saddened when anyone feels dissatisfied with the service provided and I have never had a negative response to my performance at a wedding before. With best wishes, Cecily

"Lizzy played at our wedding and she was brilliant - I would highly recommend her. The music that I heard Lizzy play during the ceremony was perfect - she filled the lengths of time required with such professionalism. I also received many compliments from our guests about the music that Lizzy played as they were entering and leaving the venue. I only wish I could have heard more!"

"Zoe played for our wedding ceremony and reception drinks and it was the most beautiful thing! Every guest mentioned how amazing and special it was and the hear our favourite song being played as I walked down the isle was an unforgettable moment! Can’t recommend her enough! Lovely and professional from start to finish! "
