Southwest Michigan Wedding Music ~ Harpist at Willow Harbor Vineyards

The hottest weekend of the summer (so far...) couldn't stop the party for Kimberly & Michael!  They were married on July 7th at Willow Harbor Vineyard in Three Oaks, Michigan.  Like many of the couples I've worked with at the vineyard, they live in Chicago but chose to get out of the city and to the other side of the Lake Michigan for a close-to-home destination wedding.

Samantha from Simply Unforgettable Occasions was their day-of planner, and was able to get some umbrellas set up to provide shade for the harp.  With the extreme temperatures, it just isn't possible to leave the wood harp sitting in the sun for a couple of hours!  With the help of Samantha and her crew, everything was able to go ahead as planned, all while keeping the harp safe.

The matron of honor came down the aisle to "Hymne" by Vangelis, followed by the bride's entrance to "Canon in D."  Although the unity candle didn't stay lit for long - always a hazard with outdoor ceremonies! - "Only Time" by Enya accompanied the ceremony.  Once they were pronounced husband & wife, the newlyweds headed off the the nearby tent for their reception to the Third Movement of "Spring" from Vivaldi's The Four Seasons.

No matter where you live, Southwest Michigan's wine country and beaches make the perfect location for a destination wedding!  Adding harp music to your ceremony and reception makes the whole event even more romantic and memorable.  To find out more about hiring me as the musician for your wedding, visit my website:  Southwest Michigan Wedding Music.
