Birthday Party (Kids)Reviewed on March 19, 2024From Boston, MA

From the moment I found her profile online, it was clear that Shelley was the best one out there! From the get go, she was incredibly easy to work with and was super communicative through out the whole process. But what really sets Shelley apart is her undeniable talent! Before the proposal I loosely described to her what type of music we would like, but in the end I asked Shelley to go with what she thought was right – and am I happy I did! Her music helped to elevate our special moment into a truly heavenly experience. Even to this day, my fiancée highlights how Shelley’s music created the ambiance that made our moment so magical!

Club EventReviewed on December 8, 2023From Bedford, NH

Our Club's annual Holiday luncheon featured Shelley Otis as our guest entertainer, and she was truly wonderful!! So many of our members and guests raved about her performance, and suggested we hire her back again next year. Her artistry and talent playing a wide range of songs on the Celtic harp was truly delightful. From the moment I inquired about booking her for our event, Shelley was very responsive and accommodating about answering all of our questions and meeting our schedule and needs. Her fee was very reasonable. I would definitely hire her again, and would highly recommend her to others for their special event.

Shelley was truly spectacular and a highlight of our wedding reception! She is quick to respond, a clear communicator, and an extremely talented musician. I would/will recommend her to anyone I know getting married and looking for live music. 10/10 we loved her!

Shelley Otis played the harp at my daughter's first baby shower. The variety of music Shelley played made the event so elegant and beautiful. The day will always be in our memories as such a special time because of Shelley. I Thank you so much.

Birthday Party (Kids)Reviewed on December 11, 2022From Melrose, MA

We highly recommend Shelley. She played for our daughter's seventh birthday party and did a splendid job. Our guests enjoyed every minute and we even had an emotional moment when all the kids sang with Shelley during the song Rudolph the red nosed reindeer. Shelly was very easy and pleasant to work with. I will keep her in mind for future events.

WeddingReviewed on July 10, 2022From Gloucester, MA

Shelley brought such a beautiful and magical sound to our wedding. She did not hesitate to learn a special song that we had requested to walk down the aisle to. She is incredibly communicative, talented, friendly, and professional. We are so grateful we decided to hire her to play for our wedding ceremony and our cocktail hour!!! Our guests absolutely raved about her.

Wedding CeremonyReviewed on October 21, 2021From Harrisville, NH

Shelley is the perfect wedding vendor - skilled, super responsive, helpful and low maintenance. Her music was a beautiful addition to make our wedding ceremony so memorable. There is truly nothing better than live music for a ceremony, and nothing better than a live harp. We have no hesitation in highly recommending Shelley.

WeddingReviewed on October 19, 2018From Tiverton, RI

Shelley was fantastic!! She bounced between piano and harp for our small wedding of 15 guests. She kept the room going at all times and created a very warm environment for everyone. She is really sweet and very easy to work, and it was a nice bonus that she is very talented and plays multiple instruments. Highly recommended!! Thanks Shelley! Amanda and Patrick - Tiverton, RI

Shelley Otis literally made our wedding ceremony. She is a vendor that feels like a friend. She goes above and beyond and will personalize your day and will certainly exceed your expectations. What an amazing person she is, that I now feel confident calling her a friend! I recommend her with 1000000 stars !!!

WeddingReviewed on July 15, 2014From Plymouth, MA

I had been working with Shelley over the phone and through email months before the wedding. She was very nice and happy to learn new music choses that we had selected for our ceremony. I wanted some songs that were new this summer and Shelley learned how to play them and did a wonderful job! It was beautiful and elegant and exactly what I had wanted. Even my uncle who doesn't normally give compliments said he enjoyed the harpist and violinist very much. They were one of his favorite parts of the wedding. He especially appreciated that they played a couple of Italian songs :-). Thank you Shelley, you were great!!

Wedding Cocktail HourReviewed on July 15, 2014From Bristol, RI

Shelley was amazing, she was so professional and accommodating from the planning all the way through to the performance. She was punctual, open minded about song selection and extremely talented on the harp. I would highly recommend her to anyone planning a special event. So many guests commented on how elegant and beautiful the music was and how she added to the ambience of our cocktail hour. Thank you so much Shelley!

Wedding CeremonyReviewed on December 1, 2012From East Lyme, CT

Shelley Otis was a wonderful addition to our wedding in September at Rocky Neck State Park in Connecticut. We were able to hand pick harp music that we wanted for our ceremony and loved that we had a diverse choice of songs and genres. She has a very informative website where you can listen to her incredible music. She was very kind, accommodating, and professional. Her music was one of our favorite parts of the day. It added such a wonderful atmosphere. We did not have a microphone for our officiant and she lent her portable amplifier to him, saving the day. We would HIGHLY recommend her. Absolutely delightful.

Wedding CeremonyReviewed on February 9, 2014From Bristol, RI

We hired Shelley Otis for our wedding's reception and cocktail hour. She was extremely professional was already familiar with our venue, Linden Place (Bristol, Rhode Island). Having the capability of being able to play both harp AND piano was part of the reason that we hired Shelley. She was accommodating to our special request of having her accompany a vocalist. Shelley learned a few new songs for our ceremony and our guests commented on her elegance and wonderful musicianship. Her communication via e-mail was both prompt and courteous. The variety of songs on her song list (jazz standards, classical, Disney, Led Zeppelin) makes Shelley a great choice for any event!

Shelly played the harp at a comittal service forr my mother. She is a stand alone performer with great talent and poise. I contacted her several months prior to our scheduled event and she complied with all my requests. You will be delighted to have Shelly at your function and know that she will not let you down in any way. Paula
