Harpists in Cumbria
Hire a harpist in Cumbria
The harp is a classic choice for a wedding ceremony, and for good reason. In Cumbria, harpists create a calm, elegant atmosphere for the aisle, the signing and the drinks reception afterwards.
Whether your wedding is near Carlisle, Kendal and Windermere or further afield, the harpists here cover the whole of Cumbria. Local venues include Broadoaks Country House, Holker Hall and Askham Hall, and it's worth checking with your venue where the music or entertainment will be set up. Eden Barn, Storrs Hall and Loweswater Village Hall are among the other Cumbria venues listed further down, each with its own page.
Many harpists arrange modern songs for the harp as well as playing classical pieces, so a favourite song can sound completely different, and entirely fitting, at a ceremony.

A harp needs a flat, level space and shelter from sun, wind and rain. If your ceremony and drinks reception are in different places, tell us the timings so the harpist can plan the move between them.
Most harpist bookings fall between £350 and £900. A ceremony-only booking sits at the lower end, while a harpist covering the ceremony, drinks reception and wedding breakfast sits towards the upper end. The date and time of year make up the rest of the difference, so a weekday or winter date can cost less than a summer Saturday.
Every act's page has video and audio of the performer you would actually book, along with their repertoire and written reviews from couples who have booked them. It's the easiest way to check the style and the sound before you commit.
Use the instant quote button on this page to see prices and availability for your date. Once you've chosen an act, we handle the contract, the deposit and the arrangements, and stay in touch through to the day. Every booking includes a 14-day change-of-mind refund, and an emergency contact line is available on the day if anything needs sorting quickly.
