Celestial Strings and Ceremonies Harpist

Just was a real gift to our celebration!

Took the ceremony to the next level. Pastor Bill is very talented!

Music sets the tone and mood for the marriage ceremony. And Pastor Bill certainly did justice to our daughter’s wedding with a mix of classical pieces, hymns, and contemporary tunes on harp. When planning a destination wedding, communication became a priority when choosing vendors. We chose him based on his responsiveness, positive reviews, and downloadable videos that showcase his skills – brings tears, still to listen to them. Pastor Bill even learned a piece of music special to the bride and groom. His transitions were flawless. He came prepared, was pleasant, kind, dignified and worked professionally with the ceremony director and officiant. In the way of decorating we chose to let the historic Faith Chapel on Jekyll Island stand alone. But Bill’s GORGEOUS instrument was a focal point that added to the beauty of the stained glass and natural wood. If you are looking for quality and elegance for an event, I highly recommend Pastor Bill.

Pastor Bill was the perfect touch who brought my wedding vision to life with his harp skills. Loved working with him and seeing the surprise on everyone’s faces when they realized the song he was playing for the bridesmaids/groomsmen to walk out to since it was so beautifully done. Thank you so much for being a part of our special day. 10/10!

Very very pleased. Many complaints from guests on his performance. I would recommend and use his service again. Played beautifully.

Very professional on time I mean everybody love it thank you so much

Prompt. Professional. Truly talented. The guests have not stopped talking about the ceremony and how beautiful the music was. More than we expected. I highly recommend.

He was on time, communicated great and played amazing. Our residents loved him.

Pastor Bill was a great addition to our party!! The music was wonderful ... Jill

Pastor Reister was FANTASTIC! Our small group was blown away,it was just so relaxing to listen to this beautiful instrument. His program was up beat, and on target! We LOVED every minute that he played for us. THANK YOU!

Pastor Bill officiated our beach ceremony and he did a fantastic job. He creates a comfort and delivers a beautiful, professional, and spiritual ceremony adding a little bit of his own touch which was certainly welcomed and appreciated. He is very easy to work with, communication is excellent and he is a pleasure to share your day with. Hard to make a choice to hire him as an officiant or harpist, he's great at both!

I cannot say enough good things. Pastor Jim played beautifully for a full two hours, and the 80+ people who attended our "Taste of Chocolate" event, raved about the harp music. We will definitely hire him again for future events or perhaps a concert featuring his talent!

Celestial Strings was awesome! Pastor Bill connected with all in attendance, and was very professional.

Pastor Bill was so gracious to our family during this time of loss. He was easy to communicate with and very committed to achieving our desired outcome. His music was absolutely beautiful! I look forward to working with him again. Very satisfied!!

Absolutely amazing :-) the piano and harp together you're breathtaking and absolutely spectacular during their solos. Extremely versatile performers tailored the Beautiful music to our every need. And this included our dog as the ring bearer coming down the aisle :-) they were able to make it classically beautiful and fun the same time. All I can say is thank you and anyone would be blessed to have them for any event :-)

Very professional! He arrived on time ,well dressed with his beautiful harp then started playing his beautiful music! Helped make our wedding the special day that it became!

Cannot thank you enough. It was a beautiful day made all the more special by the wonderful music. Thank you so much for making a special day even better. Angie Barton

I asked Rev. Reister to provide music at a private dinner with friends for my husband's 65th birthday gathering at The River Club. He arrived early, was impeccably dressed; played beautifully and non stop and even stayed late when our evening ran longer than expected. My husband is of Russian and German descent and we recently traveled to Vienna. I asked Rev. Bill to incorporate music from those areas into his playlist and he did so seamlessly. He is a talented musician and a top notch profesdional. I recommend him to anyone desiring to add an elegant touch to their event.

Celestial Strings provided an outstanding performance, exceeding all expectations with minimal direction on the day of the ceremony. Communication leading to the event was excellent so that Bill integrated seamlessly in to the wedding. He arrived well ahead of time and delivered everything he promised. I would definitely seek him out for any future events requiring a harpist and recommend him to anyone. He bent over backwards to ensure customer satisfaction.
