Sinéad Healy Wedding Singer & Harpist/Pianist/Violinist
Her music and her talent is just faultless, our guests were mesmerized by her beautiful playing.
We had a few “different” requests for our processional and recessional which we were worried she might not have been able to accommodate, but she embraced every request we had and made it so special and tailored to us.
I would highly recommend Sinéad to anyone getting married and we only wish we could figure another occasion and excuse to hear her play again!
