Ceremony music is four windows. Durations below are published ranges from harp practice writing, not a house schedule and not a booking.

The order

  1. Prelude. Guests seated; often 15 to 30 minutes of music before the processional.
  2. Processional. Short; one or two pieces.
  3. Signing / unity. A held piece while the couple is at the table.
  4. Recessional. One bright piece as people leave.

Harp Column and AHS repertoire practice discuss these as ranges. The venue’s own page is the cite for whether outdoor load-in is allowed. See Hire a harpist.
