I think if any venue could be classified as “fairy tale” worthy, this one would be it. I traveled west to The Berkshires to Santarella in Tyringham. The buildings and grounds reminded me of a fantasy land where the gardens are always in full bloom. I was excited to play for Daniel and Joseph’s ceremony and cocktail hour in such a dreamy setting.

Next to a flowing brook, I performed Bach’s Prelude in C and La Vie En Rose. The couple also released a box of butterflies just before they walked back down the grassy aisle.

Here’s what Joseph had to say:

“Thank you for such a tremendous experience. Your music is awe inspiring with a gentle disposition and we were fortunate you played at our wedding. Your music set the mood and made our day magical. Not only do you play incredible music but you were so accommodating when we asked you to play near the pond during the ceremony.

You catered to our every request perfectly and made our day so incredible. We recommend Lauren as the right addition for anyone who enjoys the harp or wants to make their event unforgettable.”
