Weddings
Congratulations! Weddings are such wonderful occasions and I’d love to be a part of making your day that extra bit special. I create bespoke arrangements on the harp to offer a one-of-a-kind event experience. From Coldplay to Mozart and everything in-between, I can provide the perfect atmosphere and stunning memory for your event. Please have a look through the FAQ section below and get in touch for a personalised quote for your event.
Ruth's work has been recognised at many of the leading festivals across the UK, as well as the World Harp Congress; Winner of the Sioned Williams Harp Prize at the United Kingdom Harp Competition, the Iain Macleòid Young Composer Award at the Edinburgh International Harp Festival and the Wales International Harp Festival Competition.

About Me You'll most often find me tucked up in a cosy corner with a cup of hot chocolate and my harp. I love creating new arrangements for this beautiful instrument, breathing new life into them. If I'm not at my harp, I'll be out in the countryside, walking the peaks, taking too many photographs and saying hello to every dog that I pass.
Based in Sheffield &
North Lincolnshire I'm a Professional Wedding Harpist with bases in Sheffield and North Lincolnshire. I frequently perform across the North East Midlands including Lincolnshire and Yorkshire, also travelling more widely across the UK.
