Jean is a true professional! She was just amazing playing at our wedding in The Keadeen Hotel in September, it was a Spiritual Ceremony and the songs we have chosen were no problem at all for Jean - as she said she's "always willing to learn something new".
We highly recommend Jean, her voice and harp are just stunning, angelic and magical.
Our guests were talking at the drinks reception how "WOW" Jean was.

We had Jean play at our church wedding ceremony as well as at our drinks reception at Adare Manor in August where she played and sang so beautifully. She was very easy to communicated with and flexible with song choices. Our band who flew in from London said they were nervous to be the following act as she was so good! We will absolutely work with her again. Many thanks Jean!

Jean was an absolute pleasure to deal with. She was so professional and had loads of fantastic suggestions as to songs we could have for our ceremony and helpful advice as to what part of the ceremony we should play them. No request for a song was a problem and she even played the way you make me feel by Michael Jackson for our exit which was just fantastic. The harp was absolutely beautiful and she has such an incredible voice. We got so many compliments on the music and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for beautiful church music.

I highly recommend choosing Jean for your wedding, she is such a beautiful singer and harpist. She is a complete professional as well as being so warm and friendly. Music was such an important factor in our wedding ceremony and she brought all the emotion and meaning we were looking for. She has so much experience and advice and she made our day so special and personalised by including our requests for Sweet Sixteen and Is This Love. Her Bob Marley instrumental on harp was the most beautiful thing I've ever heard! Huge thanks Jean for making our ceremony unforgettable.

Jean sang and played for our wedding last October and was amazing! Great to deal with all the way along, provided really good suggestions of possible songs, but was also very accommodating for our requests, even learning a song she hadn't sang before because we wanted it. On the day she sounded stunning, lots of our guests commented on the beautiful music - couldn't recommend her highly enough!

Jean played at our wedding Sept 5th, 2014. I laid on a challenge of songs for Jean to play. The bridal entrance was an acoustic version of Jason Derulo's Will You Marry Me. As this was a dance song, Jean retweaked the song to suit the harp and boy, did she do it justice.

I also asked for Lucky by Jason Mraz to be played and I remember listening to it and thinking, you beat me hands down Jean. You've again blown me away.

A pleasure to deal with and I would recommend Jean at future weddings. She made us feel comfortable and was available for any questions.

Thanks again Jean for making our day so special

Jean was an absolute pleasure to deal with! She is able to play anything and is super accommodating, especially at a moments notice! She is a highly skilled harpist as the songs we had asked her to play were not traditional wedding songs but she excelled in covering them. Added to that, she is a fantastic girl and has a lovely easy going nature. We would highly recommend her for any event.

As I said on the day, I was making a really big effort to listen and take it in, and I can still hear the music now when I think back on the day. I'll definitely recommend you to others.

Thanks again, and all the best,

We can't talk highly enough of how professional jean was towards us. When planning the wedding we had no idea the type of music we wanted for the church. Jean was fantastic in helping us select pieces for the church. She gave us so many options she played and sang each piece for us and even met us early on a Sunday mornin to accommodate us travelling. After the ceremony everyone complemented her playing and singing my granmother and uncles even said it was heavenly listening to her. I would have no hesitation in recommending jean to anyone for any occasion. We will even be buying her cd. Just to say a huge thank you to Jean for making the ceremony music such a memorable part of the day. Over a month later people are still talking about her.

We were hugely impressed with Jean from the first time we heard her. She has the voice of an angel and she plays the harp beautifully. Her professional and polite manner made us feel comfortable and at ease at all times. We were delighted with the final selection of songs chosen from our favourites and her recommendations. Her singing and harp playing during the mass was truly breathtaking and helped us both to relax and enjoy the moment. We have, and will continue to, recommend Jean to all our engaged friends. Thank you Jean for making our wedding so memorable.

Jean played at our wedding on the 29th of April 2011 at Glenlo Abbey Hotel, Galway. We found Jean very accommodating and was happy to take on our requests as well as adding her own suggestions. It was a dream of mine to walk down the aisle to 'Time to say Goodbye'. Jean made such a huge effort to learn this piece specifically for our day and surpassed expectations by singing it in Italian. All our guests commented on her beautiful playing and singing. Jean made a great day very special. We are absolutely delighted we found Jean and have already started recommending her to other couples. I just wish Declan and I could marry again to have Jean there again! :)

Our ceremony on September 10th 2010 came to life when Jeans' beautiful voice echoed througout our little church.

I took a gamble meeting Jean on the internet as I live in Canada and decided to marry in Ireland. She was very helpful in coordinating the music for the ceremony and the rest I left up to fate. The first time I say her was when I walked down the aisle. Her playing and voice far exceeded my expectations and brought a magical aura to the church and ceremony. I had no idea how incredibly talented she is. My only regret is that we didn't have her sing and play the whole ceremony!

Jean Wallace did an amazing job singing at our wedding, Her voice carried throughout the church perfectly. Her harp playing and singing are a perfect combination. If we could do it all over again we would definitely chose Jean as she helped to make our day so memorable. We arranged to meet Jean a few weeks before the wedding and she couldnt have been more accomodating. Once we heard her play the harp and sing we knew we had made the right choice.
