Brunch in Belmont

In the summer of 2011, my boyfriend and I took a trip to the Mass Audubon Wildlife Sanctuary in Belmont. As soon as I saw the sprawling gardens and cute mansion on the premises, I told him, “I can’t wait to play a wedding here.” A year later, my wish came true!

Jaye invited me to be a part of her garden brunch ceremony. We encountered a little bit of rain, but everything turned out great. I played Prelude No. 1 for the bridal party and Pachelbel’s Canon for the bride. We ended the whimsical program with Mendelssohn’s Wedding March.

Jaye was also nice enough to write this review on WeddingWire:

“Lauren was great! She was incredibly friendly and flexible. I was a bride on a budget and she was such a fantastic value for the price – unbelievable. I got so many comments about her (great ones!) from people who were amazed at what a real, live harpist could add to a ceremony. She made my very simple ceremony into something romantic and genteel. She was fast at responding to emails and easy to reach by phone. She has a lot of experience with weddings so she was able to answer questions and really…help me out, since I had no idea what I was doing! She has a huge repertoire and is happy to learn more if you have something specific in mind. Lauren was awesome!”
