    Aysha played beautifully at our intimate wedding ceremony in December. She is professional, timely, accommodating and very talented. She catered to all our requests and even learned a new song. Her audience was truly enchanted with her craft. Thank you Aysha for adding grace and beauty to our special day.

    I first met Aysha as colleagues, and over the years I've worked with her, she has been one of the most capable, meticulous, reliable people I've ever met. When I asked her to play at my ceremony, she brought a whole new level of professionalism to the table. Her incredible wealth of knowledge from all her professional experiences over the years was very apparent, and she was so easy to work with. She guided us through the whole process -- including preparing a setlist for us to vet, figuring out the appropriate schedule / layout / dress code, learning two brand-new pieces (which she transcribed for harp herself after I gave her the original non-harp recordings), and more. Her professionalism extends to her playing, which is only matched by her world-class skill at the harp. For example, unrehearsed things were bound to happen, and she handled them all impeccably. Her harp music was the absolute perfect, elegant, beautiful -- and as an added bonus, stress-free! -- touch to our ceremony, and if I could do it all again, I wouldn't have it any other way.
