As 2024 comes to a close, I find myself reflecting on the incredible experiences this year has brought me. Being part of so many couples’ love stories has been a profound privilege and a constant reminder of why I am so passionate about what I do. Every note I play is a reflection of their love, and it’s an honor I cherish deeply.

Grateful for Amazing Couples
This year, I had the joy of performing for so many couples celebrating one of the most important days of their lives. Each couple brought their unique energy, love, and dreams to their wedding day, and I feel truly blessed that they entrusted me to provide the soundtrack for these unforgettable moments. From delicate melodies during heartfelt ceremonies to joyful tunes at lively receptions, being part of these celebrations has been both humbling and inspiring.

Honored to Partner with Exclusive Venues
One of the highlights of 2024 has been serving as a preferred vendor at some of the most exclusive venues in Northern California. Places like The Estate in Yountville, Filoli, San Francisco City Hall, The Ritz Carlton in Half Moon Bay, many Wedgewood Weddings locations (Hacienda De Las Flores, Presidio Golden Gate Club etc.), Saratoga Springs, Merryvale Vineyards are more than just stunning backdrops—they are iconic spaces where love stories come to life. Partnering with these venues has allowed me to elevate each performance, knowing that I’m part of a team dedicated to creating extraordinary events.
The close collaboration with these venues ensures a seamless and magical experience for every couple. Whether it’s the grandeur of San Francisco City Hall or the romantic charm of Merryvale Winery, these spaces inspire my music and enhance every note I play.
A heartfelt thanks to all the incredible talented Planners I've worked with such as  Aroosi by Lili, Anela Events, Two Perfect Events, Belle Events and Co, Quintana Events. Your work has been so crucial in making every single detail shine throughout the beautiful weddings we've collaborated on in 2024 and I've been inspired by your dedication and professionalism.

A Year of Gratitude
Looking back, 2024 has been a year of beautiful moments and lasting connections. I am so thankful to have worked alongside talented professionals and exceptional couples who have made this year so special. Every performance is a reminder of the power of music to bring people together and make moments truly unforgettable.
As I look ahead to 2025, I carry with me the memories of this incredible year and a heart full of gratitude for everyone who has been part of my journey. To the couples who have chosen me to be part of their most significant day, thank you for allowing me to share in your joy.

Here’s to another year of love, music, and unforgettable celebrations!

Warmly,
Eleonora

Favorite Wedding locations in 2022

I've been living in the San Francisco Bay Area for almost 5 years now and I've played in many venues for weddings and private events.
Yet, I was surprised to discover so many gorgeous wedding locations this year.

Here' a list of some of my favorite wedding venues in the San Francisco Bay Area:
  • Old Saint Hilary's  Historic Church, Tiburon
  • Botanical Gardens, San Francisco
  • Shakespeare Garden, San Francisco
  • Swedenborgian Church, San Francisco
  • Hacienda de las Flores, Moraga
  • Carneros Resort and Spa, Napa
  • ​Saratoga Springs Events & Weddings, Saratoga
  • Chapel on the hill, Los Gatos
  • The Secret Garden, Bodega Bay

All of these beautiful venues are harp friendly, some are only outdoors some are only indoors and some have both options.

The most elegant one is in my opinion Carneros Resort, that brought back memories of when I was living in Italy and performed in 5 start luxury resorts in Tuscany.

On the other hand I really enjoy playing in lush gardens, outdoors settings that I feel have a special connection with the sound on the harp. So If this is your vibe I would definitely recommend Botanical Garden, Shakespeare Garden, Saratoga Springs and the Secret Garden in Bodega Bay.

Lastly, small intimate historic chapels are so fascinating on their own that adding the harp is simply icing on the cake!

Can't wait to be back and play in these stunning Bay Area wedding venues in 2023!
