Harpists in Manchester
Hire a harpist in Manchester
The harp is a classic choice for a wedding ceremony, and for good reason. In Manchester, harpists create a calm, elegant atmosphere for the aisle, the signing and the drinks reception afterwards.
Manchester has a wide choice of wedding venues, from The Monastery Manchester and Great John Street Hotel to The Whitworth. Our harpists travel to towns across the area, including Manchester, Salford and Stockport, so the location of your venue won't limit your choice. Further down this page are more local venues, such as Manchester Hall, Ordsall Hall and The Principal / Kimpton Clocktower, with details of each.
Harpists play a mix of classical repertoire and arrangements of pop, film and folk songs, so the music can be traditional or personal to you. Some play a full concert harp and others a smaller lever harp, which is easier to move between rooms.

A concert harp gives the fullest sound and suits a large ceremony room or church. A lever harp is smaller and lighter, which makes it easier to move from the ceremony to the drinks reception, and still sounds beautiful in most rooms.
Expect to pay from around £350 up to £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. Busy Saturdays in summer and December sit at the top of the range, and your quote shows exactly what's included.
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.
