Lauren Swain, Harpist

I hired Lauren to play at the Breaux Vineyard in Purcellville, VA on 21 September for my daughter's wedding cocktail hour. Her communication in playing some hispanic songs was great and the price was very affordable. She showed up on time and was very professional. Overall Lauren is a seaoned harpist and added a classy touch to the wedding. A lot of guests commented about how nice she played. I highly recommend her. Thanks Lauren!!

From start to finish, Lauren was gracious and professional! She communicated warmly and efficiently throughout the process. Her music and presentation provided the perfect music for an elegant ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception. She had a great playlist and was willing to learn new songs in advance. We received many compliments on her skills. I cannot say enough positive things about Lauren!

Lauren and her music were goth gracious and delightful. She was a gracious addition to our anniversary party as we introduced her to our guests and her harp filled the house and garden with music that created a gracious atmosphere. Guests smiled as they recognized favorite pieces. We loved her!!

Lauren did an incredible job playing her beautiful harp for our event. She was very quick to respond to my initial inquiry and remained in communication with me as well. She showed up ahead of schedule and the music was professionally played providing the exact atmosphere we sought. Lauren has a very pleasant and kind personality which showed throughout the booking and the event itself. Everyone is still talking about her performance as it was the highlight of our evening. Needless to say whatever she charges will be worth every penny and more!

Lauren was amazing and we couldn’t be happier with her talent!

Lauren played the harp for my daughter’s bridal shower tea. She was excellent. We communicated several times prior to the event, she arrived on time & played beautifully. My daughter was so surprised & the other guests loved her. Thanks Lauren!

Lauren was amazing! She played the harp beautifully! Everyone enjoyed it. She was professional, on time and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a Harpist!

Lauren played for our wedding and it was amazing. She played songs from her own repertoire then learned three custom songs for us to walk down the aisle to. Her music was a beautiful addition to our special day. She was very easy to communicate with and low maintenance. One of the best vendors I had to work with!

We were most pleased with Lauren's performance and professionalism during our small wedding. Her music was lovely and she even learned a few new songs to accommodate our requests! Very highly recommended!

Lauren was awesome at my wedding. Her harp really added an ethereal, beautiful ambiance, and her volume was clear--not too quiet nor too loud for my outdoor ceremony by the water with about 130 people present. She was reasonably priced and very communicative. I had her cell phone number and email address, and she sent me recordings of the songs I had requested of her for my wedding. I requested "Dream a Little Dream of Me" for our processional, a traditional Korean song called "Arirang" for my bridal march, and "Dancing in the Moonlight" for our recessional, as well as a 10-15 minute prelude while guests filed in. All 3 songs were new to her repertoire, but she learned them with proficiency and played beautifully. I also didn't realize it at the time I hired her, but the harp is heavily featured in Legend of Zelda, which is one of my favorite games from my childhood, so it was an extra nostalgia factor, hearing her instrument. I digress. Hire Lauren!

Lauren came and played for our Nursing Home residents at our Long-Term Care Facility. She was amazing with not only her entertainment, but with the choices she played that were perfect for our resident's, and she was the sweetest, at interacting with them! When I looked around the room as she played, there was nothing but wide smiles in amazement and awe of her beautiful talent as a harpist. If you're thinking about booking Lauren to come and entertain at your next event, she is without a doubt, an excellent choice and you will not be disappointed in her performance! We look forward to having her back in the future, to return for the third time! Great Job Lauren!

Lauren performed beautifully during a large dinner party that we hosted. Everyone loved her!

My Mother passed and we just had the funeral on June 10th. It was last minute when I decided to hire a harpist. I contacted a few but none compared to Lauren’s talent and her skill. She did a superb job and it was an amazing experience. She was prompt,’professional and personable. I can’t recommend her enough! We will use Lauren again. You will not be disappointed and sue exceeds all expectations.

I hired Lauren Swain for my wedding and she was amazing! Her performances were perfect and our guests were in awe the entire day. Lauren was even able to cover a special song for our first dance! If you're worried about being able to move her around to different spaces at your venue then worry not, our venue was large and she had no trouble moving from space to space as the day went on. I would 100% recommend Lauren Swain to anyone who is thinking about live music at their event.

Lauren was everything we hoped for. She provided amazing ambience for our grand opening event and we got wonderful feedback from our guests. I will book her again soon!!

Lauren did an incredible job! She is professional, was fully prepared on the day of the event, and did a wonderful job playing the harp.

Lauren was the perfect touch to our wedding. She dressed for the occasion and made the whole evening like a fairytale. Thank you so much Lauren ♥️

Lauren played beautifully during our wedding ceremony. She played wedding classic processional as well as more contemporary music, and even learned a song for our ceremony. She impressed!

Our family could not have been more impressed to have Lauren as our harpist for our mother’s memorial. Lauren was wonderful. She is amazing at playing the harp! I highly recommend her and if I was to ever need a harpist again, she would be my first pick! She was also very punctual and professional and her harp is absolutely beautiful.

We hired Lauren for our wedding. It was a beautiful touch and took our guest by surprise. She was prompt with timing and her song selection was wonderful. Some of our guests were curious as to the names of some of the songs. Her pricing was reasonable and she is a very kind person. I would recommend her for any event, we loved it!

Lauren was such a talent and a pleasure to have during our Mother's Day Tea event for families and residents of our assisted living. The relaxing atmosphere the harp provides really helped to elevate the event to "the next level". Brookdale Hagerstown is grateful to her for her time.

Lauren was absolutely amazing, and helped make the evening perfect! She is a treasure, and I look forward to working with her again!

P.S. I do not yet have the pictures from the evening, but will forward when I can.

It was a wonderful experience all around.

Lauren did a fabulous job performing at our wedding. She arrived early and played all the songs we requested beautifully. Lauren was extremely easy to work with. In fact, when I requested a song that she did not know, Lauren obtained the music, taught herself the song, and played it flawlessly. She was laid-back, professional, and truly a delight. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for an elegant way to have music at an event.

Lauren is a gifted harpist and performed beautifully for a family wedding. She was pleasant and wonderful to consult with as songs were selected and suggested. She made this special day a dream come true for the bride and added elegance from the first moment she performed. We 100% recommend her. Thank you, Lauren.

Lauren was early, set up quickly and played absolutely beautifully. She brought a level of class to our event that was appreciated by hosts and attendees alike. Thank you Lauren!

Lauren played the harp at my wedding. She is wonderful to work with and really takes the time to prepare herself. She truly exceeded all expectations, her harp playing is so very beautiful and professional. Everyone at our wedding loved her playing and it added even more romance to an already romantic occasion. My husband and I are forever grateful!

Lauren is a professional level harpist and we have used her at several of our elegant holiday events. Lauren is very attentive, taking extra time to ensure she exceeded our expectations and supported the level of entertainment we desired at our events. Our experience with Lauren is enhanced by the fact that she is not only a professional musician she is a delightful young woman. We enjoy Lauren as a friend and can’t wait to re-open to be able to share her company again.

Lauren played the harp for my wedding in April. She did an amazing job, the music was beautiful and she helped to make our day as special as possible.

My organization has had the privilege of having Lauren perform for us on two occasions. If I need entertainment in the future, I would definitely recommend her again. Lauren is very talented and all in attendance enjoyed her performance.
