".....I wanted her to create a heavenly soundscape for our mother’s memorial, and she executed this better than I imagined!"

“I know I gave Chanah Ambuter 5 stars in every category, but that’s because they don’t allow 6 stars! I’m being truthful, her accommodations, and artistic performance was everything I hoped for, and more! I told her I wanted her to create a heavenly soundscape for our mother’s memorial, and she executed this better than I imagined! She’s not only an excellent harpist , she even teaches others. She allowed time as after concluding to answer some questions about the instrument, and gave a close demonstration of how the instrument works. If I were a billionaire, I’d hire her to play every day in my mansion. We will hire her again! Great idea, and I feel it was worth it!” ~ Richard W, Memorial Service on 10/7/2023 in St Clair Shores, Michigan

“Chanah was such a amazing harpist! She helped me every step of the way when selecting music for my wedding ceremony. I am grateful she played for my wedding.” ~ Nina F, Wedding on 8/26/23 in Shelby Township, Michigan

"Chanah, you are an incredible harpist! You blessed my heart!....It was truly a moment in time!""

“Unbelievable! Incredible performance!

You did a great job last night! You follow extremely well, unbelievably well. I balled my eyes out with the Ave Maria performance [duet with my husband on cello]. Oh, I can hardly believe it!! The tone on that cello with the harp was so gorgeous!! Your instrument sings!! You are such a gift! It was truly a moment in time!!

I [just] had a good cry again!! Thank you so much!! Chanah, you are an incredible harpist! You blessed my heart! Such a blessing you are!!

Thank you, thank you!!”

"Guests loved her and even gave her requests, which she accommodated!”

“We had Chanah play during the cocktail hour of our garden wedding. She was very professional and her playing is wonderful. Guests loved her and even gave her requests, which she accommodated!” ~ Bellina G, Wedding on 7/21/23 in Rochester, Michigan

"I was actually in tears hearing this music played.....in a more beautiful way than I ever had before. Chanah is extremely skilled as a harpist and is an incredibly genuine and kind human being. "

“It's not often you come across a vendor who cares about your event as much as you do, but Chanah is truly that. From our first conversations hitting it off over our mutual love of cats, to her genuine interest in learning and understanding South Asian culture and music, and her absolute professionalism and expertise through it all, Chanah is an absolute gem. She helped me navigate through her very detailed portfolio of available songs and was able to honor nearly every request I had. She took on the song requests I had and played the more beautifully than I've ever heard. She made great professional recommendations around logistics for maximizing the harp experience the day of, and was extremely flexible during the actual event. She checked in at appropriate times in the weeks leading up to the event and all around made me always feel comfortable and confident in my decision to work with her. All these factors would have made her a 10/10 vendor, but then she went even further above and beyond. My fiance and I are South Asian and while I'd always dreamed of having a harpist for our event, I especially wanted to feature some of the special South Asian songs I grew up with. Chanah committed to one of my choosing among the list of options I'd sent her, but two days before our event she surprised me and let me know she'd perfected 4 more of the South Asian songs to the harp, in addition to even watching some of the movies they came from. I was actually in tears hearing this music played during our event in a more beautiful way than I ever had before. Chanah is extremely skilled as a harpist and is an incredibly genuine and kind human being. I would work with her over and over and could not recommend her enough! Chanah, I've said this to you before and will say it again - you were the best part of our day, THANK YOU!!” ~ Maisha R, Engagement on 5/20/23

"...Chanah is a true professional...truly a joy to work with."

“In addition to her beautiful music, Chanah is a true professional, responds quickly and truly a joy to work with. Highly recommend!” - Sue S, Wedding on 6/19/2023 in Clarkston, MI

Once again, I was delighted to team up with versatile Florina Petrescu with violin and harp duo for the ceremony & cocktail hour.

They chose a ceremony and cocktail soundscape with beloved soundtrack arrangements, cherished Golden Oldies, and timeless classical gems.

“She was so easy to work with and her music set was so beautiful! Would highly recommend!"

“She was so easy to work with and her music set was so beautiful! Would highly recommend!” Lat D, Wedding on 5/13/23 in Dearborn, MI

"Chanah is the epitome of professional!.... I cannot recommend Chanah enough if you are looking for a harpist for your event!"

“Chanah is the epitome of professional! From our correspondence via The Knot, to our first meeting Chanah was a pleasure to work with. Chanah performed at our wedding during our cocktail hour (outdoor) and through dinner (indoor) and we couldn't have been happier. She made sure to play all our Must Have songs and was very accommodating through a hectic day. Throughout the planning process she had wonderful suggestions to help make our day special and memorable. Having a harp performance really made our wedding day unique for us and our guests. I cannot recommend Chanah enough if you are looking for a harpist for your event!” ~ Michelle S, Wedding on 5/27/23 in Detroit, Michigan

"Chanah was absolutely perfect and her performance was easily my favorite detail of the day!"

“Chanah was amazing! Through the whole process, she was so kind, thoughtful, and talented. She has a massive repertoire and made suggestions based on what we liked; my husband (!) and I are self-professed nerds, so she played excerpts from Lord of the Rings, Skyrim, and all of that nerdy stuff as well as more traditional, classical music and it all sounded so beautiful.

Our guests were blown away and so were we; she completely elevated the feel of our cocktail hour and set the tone for the evening. It was so classy and elegant to mingle with our guests with beautiful harp playing in the background. Chanah was absolutely perfect and her performance was easily my favorite detail of the day!”

- Anna and David, married 3/25/2023 in Detroit, Michigan

"Chanah was absolutely wonderful to work with. She was always responsive and easy to talk to..."

“We hired Chanah to play the harp during our wedding ceremony and for a cocktail hour along with a violinist (Florina Georgia). Chanah was absolutely wonderful to work with. She was always responsive and easy to talk to during video calls. My wife and I even had a vision for some songs for our ceremony and Chanah was able to arrange a couple of custom pieces. We highly recommend Chanah for your future event.” ~ Dan and Bridget, Married on 11/19/2022 in West Bloomfield, Michigan

"It was exactly what we wanted and made our ceremony feel really special. "

“Chanah was wonderful to work with! She was very easy to communicate with via email, messaging etc, and I definitely always felt that my needs were in good hands. My husband and I wanted a song from a video game as our recessional song during our ceremony, and Chanah was able to transcribe the entire song (there was not any sheet music already available)! It was exactly what we wanted and made our ceremony feel really special. I would recommend having Chanah play harp for your special day anytime.” ~ Jade P, Wedding on 10/29/2022 in Ann Arbor, Michigan

"Plus, she's very friendly, very helpful, and very motivated to make your special day even more memorable."

“Chanah is such an amazing musician. Plus, she's very friendly, very helpful, and very motivated to make your special day even more memorable. My wife and I asked her to play a Yann Tiersen song, "Penn Ar Lann," when our fathers walked us down the aisle for our wedding. She played a beautiful rendition of the song and made our walks really special. We asked her to play classical music from her repertoire during cocktail hour and requested specific contemporary songs from her repertoire for dinner. Hearing "Montero" by Lil Nas X on the harp was a highlight!

As a lesbian couple, it was important to us that our wedding vendors were LGBTQ+ affirming. Chanah was that and more. Thank you, Chanah!” ~ Rebecca E, Married 10/17/2022 in Plymouth, MI

"Chanah's performance was excellent."

“Chanah had a very diverse playlist. Very friendly & easy to talk to. She was excellent with children & allowed them to play her harp. Great addition to our event.” ~ R Hall, Birthday Party on 9/30/2022 in Holly, MI

"She is a highly skilled musician who has so much experience with weddings. ...Chanah's sweet personality and energy was the cherry on top..."

“Chanah was absolutely a dream to work with. She is a highly skilled musician who has so much experience with weddings. For my wedding, I had the special request of having my brother duet with her (see video on her page) when I walked down the aisle, and Chanah happily arranged things so it could happen. With her expertise, a revised version of Canon in D with a segue into How to Train Your Dragon with violin accompaniment was written and perfected in one rehearsal. She even surprised us with a video recording of it so that we could have this keepsake forever. My guests are still talking about how awesome she was during cocktail hour, and so impressed with her music selection and renditions of popular songs. I can keep writing about Chanah for days. If her musicianship and professionalism is not enough to convince you, Chanah's sweet personality and energy was the cherry on top that made her a dream to work with. Focused yet easy going, she would be able to provide the reassurance to calm the nerves of any stressed out bride! We loved Chanah and really hope we have an opportunity to work with her again.” ~ Tracy B, Wedding September 17th 2022, Rochester, MI

“Chanah did such a beautiful job playing for our cocktail hour at our wedding. She is so sweet and so easy to work with. Highly recommend!!!” ~ Maris B, wedding on 6/24/2022 in Plymouth, MI

"We talk about how she is our favorite vendor. ..."

“Chanah was an amazing harpist and so fun to work. We talk about how she is our favorite vendor. She worked with us to cultivate a beautiful ceremony and whimsical cocktail hour. My husband's favorite part of the night was when she played the Pokemon Theme song (which she learned exclusively for our wedding!!). She also knew that we were unable to be present for her entire performance and was kind enough to record and send us her performance so that we can listen to it for years to come. If you would like a whimsical, elegant wedding ceremony and party, look no further than Chanah Ambuter.”

~ Avital R, Wedding on 6/14/2022 in Detroit, Michigan

"Hired the best harpist for my daughter's wedding!"

“Chanah was a pleasure to work with from the very first email exchange. She worked with my daughter to create a unique musical experience for her wedding and incorporated all of her requests which made the day special. Chanah's music was beautiful for the ceremony and also made the cocktail reception much more fun and festive. I can not recommend her enough...you will be in very good hands!” Father of the Bride, Mark S. - Wedding on 5/21/2022 in Pontiac MI
