Lydia was amazing! Her music was just the touch our wedding needed!

Wedding Reception•Reviewed on May 23, 2024•From Cincinnati, OH

Lydia was very easy to work with and was very professional. She worked with us to accommodate our prearranged requested songs which she played beautifully on her harp. Her performance at our daughter’s wedding reception was enjoyed by all of our guests. I would highly recommend contracting with her for your next event.

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on July 1, 2022•From Dayton, OH

Lydia was professional and easy to work with, and she performed beautifully. She played the songs we asked her to. They set the scene at the ceremony to be lovely without being distracting by any means. I have no complaints and I would definitely work with Lydia again.

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on March 14, 2022•From New Albany, OH

We booked Lydia for our mother's surprise 60th birthday! She was a highlight of the party, and everyone was so impressed by her playing. Her choice of music was perfect for our "tea party" theme. I would hire her in a heartbeat for any future event! Thank you, Lydia!

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on September 21, 2014•From Powell, OH

Lydia was wonderful. There were so many compliments given to us regarding the choice of the harp for our music. We would highly recommend Lydia. The ceremony was outside in a wedding garden. The music carried along with the breeze making the sound even more beautiful. It was also nice having harp music playing during the cocktail hour as well. Lydia is very easy to work with and very talented. We felt confident in choosing her as our harpist. Thank you to Lydia for sharing her awesome talent with us.

Lydia is amazing! She was so easy to communicate with regarding the details for my wedding. She has such a wide array of songs available to choose from it almost makes it hard to pick them! Her performance was beautiful and I have had so many compliments from my guests on how great she played. She made my day perfect. :-)

Lydia played at my wedding ceremony, and was amazing!! Not only is she talentd, she was so easy to work with. Lydia helped me pick my music, offered suggestions and was so flexible when I kept changing my mind. She was quick to respond to emails, which was very reassuring to me. At my wedding ceremony, the music was perfect. Everyone commented to me how beautiful the music was!! I highly recommend Lydia!!!

We were so pleased that Lydia was able to play at our wedding. The venue and the vintage theme of the wedding was the perfect ambiance for the harp. We heard so many people say that they really enjoyed Lydia's talent and wished she had played longer! Thank you again so much for being accommodating. We highly recommend!

Corporate Function•Reviewed on May 3, 2013•From Marion, OH

I am a store manager and booked Lydia to play for a reception I hosted. She is amazingly talented and friendly. Her music was great and everyone loved the atmosphere from her music. I was happy to have her play at my event and would recommend Lydia to everyone looking for a great musician. I was told by numerous people about how talented she was and how great she made the event sound. It added a very classy touch I don't believe I could have received from anyone else. Book her for any event in which you want someone who is very professional, skilled, and would make your event everything it could be.

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on August 13, 2014•From Lewis Center, OH

We had Lydia play her harp for our wedding on 8/2/14. Lydia was extremely helpful and informative from day one, which took much of the pressure off of myself and my fiance, now husband. She communicated very promptly through her email and also texts. Her website made choosing our songs such a breeze as she has so many choices and examples! After the ceremony, many guests came up to myself and my parents to compliment Lydia's talent. She plays so beautifully! I would definitely recommend Lydia to anyone looking for a harpist! I am overly pleased!!

Lydia did a beautiful job playing at our cocktail hour. So many of our guests commented on how beautiful the music was and what a classy touch it added to our event. I would definitely recommend Lydia!

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on October 11, 2014•From Columbus, OH

Our venue was small. Lydia played beautifully, and softly. The music moved along on the air as my daughter ( the bride) walked down the garden path. I was very happy and composed until I heard the harp. It was very pretty. Thank you Lydia, for your talent and professionalism. We couldn't be more pleased!

Celebration•Reviewed on March 18, 2015•From Columbus, OH

For our St. Paddy's Day event, we had an entertainer cancel at the last minute. Not knowing what else to do, I googled "Entertainers in the Columbus, Ohio area" and the GigMasters website popped up. Unfamiliar with the site, I followed the instructions and they found us the perfect person for the job, and she happened to be available during the time we needed her! Lydia Haywood gets our high praises, not just for saving the day, but for the beautiful music that she played. We will definitely invite her back again and again!

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on June 26, 2012•From Groveport, OH

Lydia was always prompt in addressing any questions or concerns I had while planning my wedding ceremony. She is very accomodating and easy to work with. She plays beautifully and I had many complements on her work from my wedding guest. 5 stars simply doesn'td begin to scratch the suface of how pleased I am after having worked with Lydia Haywood. I would recommend her to anyone, and hire her again myself should the opportunity arise.

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on September 22, 2013•From Hilliard, OH

Lydia's harp music brought beautiful sounds to my daughter's wedding ceremony. This was a morning wedding in an indoor space and the harp was perfect in volume, providing a nice background for the seating chatter of the guests, as well as a completely moving processional (and recessional). The guests were very complimentary. More importantly, the bride and groom loved it! Highly recommended! :-)

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on October 8, 2013•From Delaware, OH

Lydia was very enjoyable to work with and very professional. Before our wedding Lydia was willing to met with us and play samples of music, because we didn't know much about weddings or music Lydia was a huge help. Also the day of the wedding we had rain and the ceremony was delayed for 10-15 min. Lydia had no problem waiting for us to beginning and even said she was good with playing the the light rain if that's what we wanted. In addition to Lydia's professionalism, and her extensive knowledge in music she is also very kind hearted. I would definitely recommend Lydia for your event!!!

Wedding•Reviewed on June 18, 2013•From Columbus, OH

Lydia was the harpist for our wedding ceremony on June 15, 2013. The music was beautiful! She arrived early to begin playing prelude music. Our guests loved her beautiful music! She was also very helpful in planning the music for the reception and I was able to meet with her and listen to some different songs so we could plan the ceremony music together. She was very accommodating and helpful and I would definitely recommend her!
