Sylvia's Reviews
With her many years of experience as a Harpist she is one of the best I have experienced. She has played with every major symphony in Michigan as well as instructing at Interlochen School.

Sylvia was wonderful to work with. We had her play the harp for our ceremony and cocktail hour and she did a lovely job. Her website was easy to use and the samples don't do her music justice.

Sylvia was perfect. I'm so glad I found her. I definitely recommend her, because I enjoyed walking down the aisle to her playing the harp and I got many complements about her from guests after the ceremony.

The harp and the flute were nothing short of magical for our outdoor reception at Bowers Harbor Inn. A nice departure from the standard string quartet- and the jazz at cocktail hour was perfect.

What a bargain!!! Sylvia has such reasonable rates and is a trained musician. She's so professional and dresses the part too...she fits the mold for a sophisticated and elegant event. We had her playing infront of the stage at the Traverse City Opera house and her music was simply moving especially bouncing off the opera house walls. It was something we and our guests will never, ever forget. I can't think of a better person to help us set the tone for our ceremony. Simply amazing.

I'll admit, as the bride, I barely got to hear Sylvia play the harp at my wedding, but all of my guests raved about how gorgeous the music was at my wedding! Sylvia was a true pleasure to work with and truly set the mood for my wedding day.

Sylvia's solo harp was elegant and absolutely beautiful during my ceremony. She's like an angel playing the harp! It fit our setting so well. We were very pleased. She's beautiful and talented and her music sunk in with everyone. What a beautiful instrument.

Sylvia did an incredible job providing music for our ceremony. She was a pleasure to work with throughout the planning process and was always very prompt when responding to my emails or phone calls. She was very happy to work with us and incorporate songs that we requested as well. As the bride, I didn't get to hear much of Sylvia’s playing before I came down the aisle, but all of our guests have given us compliments on how amazing and talented she was. She was very polite and professional and really added to the elegance of our ceremony. We are so happy that we chose Sylvia to provide our ceremony music.

Sylvia was the harpist for our daughter's wedding at the Bay Harbor Yacht Club. It was an outdoor ceremony, and Sylvia did a wonderful job. She is so talented and plays beautifully, and we and our guests loved it.

Sylvia played the harp so beautifully at our outdoor wedding at Castle Farms. It was so elegant and all of our guests raved about her. She even played the non-traditional bridal entrance song of the Up Theme Song! Easy planning process and just all around a great experience with a true artist.

Hearing Sylvia play was one of my favorite parts of my wedding ceremony. She did a fabulous job, and she is incredibly easy to work with. I can't recommend her enough.

Sylvia is truly a talented artist! Don’t worry if she’ll be loud enough at your ceremony, she can play very very loud if required. The way she played added a whole new dimension to the court yard. My only regret is not having her play for longer, as we only had her play during seating, ceremony, and a small transition into the cocktail hour. She can play many song beyond what is listed on her website. For instance we had her play the Harry Potter Theme song during our unity ceremony. I would recommend to her to any one who has room in their budget.

If you are considering live music of any form for your ceremony/cocktail hour Sylvia is your go to! I used Sylvia for our wedding at Castle Farms this past August 25th. She is extremely talented! Her Harp skills are beyond amazing, such beautiful music she plays and her personality goes right along with it. Once you hear it, you will be mesmerized. She was on time, dressed beautifully, set-up and playing for guests just as discussed all while I was busy being a bride 😉 I HIGHLY recommend her and am more than 100percent satisfied with the service she provided. Thank you Sylvia you are amazing!

We had Sylvia play for our wedding at Castle Farms this past weekend, and she was AMAZING. She played during our ceremony, as well as during cocktail hour. Guests raved about how amazing she was. Sylvia was easy to work with, and had great recommendations for song choices. She even played a very special song for me that I had requested to walk down the isle to. She was great!

I had Sylvia play harp (with cello accompaniment) at my wedding this summer and she was incredible. The music was perfect and the guests kept talking about how elegant it was to have a harp play during the ceremony.

Sylvia Norris is an exceptionally talented harpist. She played the harp before and during the ceremony at our wedding. Our guests loved it, as did my wife and I. What made Sylvia so amazing was the level of personalization she delivered. My wife and I had several lengthy conversations with her on the phone prior to the ceremony so she could get a better idea of the type of music we like, and so she could tell us which songs would sound better when played on harp as opposed to other. What made it even more special was the fact that a close friend of ours wanted to sing at the ceremony as well. Sylvia had no problem in accommodating this, and the collaborations between our singer and Sylvia were phenomenal. If you want some live music for any part of your wedding, we would absolutely recommend Sylvia Norris, whether you want her to play the good old wedding classics, or anything you desire for that matter. (The requests we made to Sylvia that she did excellent with were Florence and the Machine "you got the love" and Alicia Keys "If I ain't got you.").
