Reasonably priced harpist???

I'm looking for a harpist to play for 1/2 ceremony...any recommendations? I called one who wanted $350.00! I was thinking more on the line of $100.00- any suggestions would be appreciated
:)

Thanks for your help.

harpist

I have some phone numbers of harpists...let me know if you need them. Remember, though, you have to pay for the transportation of the harp. One person quoted $80 just for that!

We are looking for a violin/string trio...all prices I have been quoted for 1- 1/2hours is $300! YIKES!

How's it going hun?? I know we are in the straight-away now :)

Reasonably priced harpist???

We also wanted a harpist for 1/2 hour to 45 minutes and they quoted $300-$400. You may not find one any cheaper, my fiance called the National Music association and got a bunch of numbers. They all quoted around the same price. We decided to have the harpist stay through the cocktail hour and it's about $400. Let me know if you want her number.

I know your weddings coming soon too. I am trying not to think about the dress issue. I just hope that maybe I will get a cool woman who works on the plane who will sympathise with me and give me a break.

HARPISTS - Go to local High School

Hi Ladies - I am going to look into my high school music department for my cocktail hour music. I believe the director of the music department would be grateful to have some of his best students play in public. You can pay them some money and they are happy and you will be happy and you helped someone

My friends are getting married at the East Wind next year and found someone who was giving them more for almost the same amount of money. If you're getting married out east and want the info, email me privately and I'll find out and pass it along.

Good luck! : )

HARPISTS - Go to local High School

Thanks! i'll try it..i'm just concerned about them not showing up!(that would be my luck)

first - get yourself out of the middle. If this is your finance's mom then let him deal with her. Trust me, its easier.

second - how many 14-17 year olds are we talking about? It may be easier for the 2 of you invite them & pay for them yourselves if its that important to you.
