Many Red Soda musicians have performed on some of the world’s biggest stages alongside internationally renowned artists. Today, they bring that same experience, professionalism and passion to weddings and events across Toronto.

Every word of your aisle song, sung live over the harp, as you walk toward the person you're about to marry.

Why Add a Singer to the Harp?

Some songs need their words. Imagine John Legend's "All of Me" sung as you walk toward each other, or Il Divo's "Nella Fantasia" soaring over the harp as you're pronounced married.

The harp sets a calm, beautiful mood. The singer gives your songs their words, so the meaning lands with every guest. One moment it's an aria. The next it's Alicia Keys.

Which Ceremony Moments Do We Perform?

We cover your whole ceremony, with your songs at each key moment.

Prelude music as guests arrive, then your entrance, the signing and your exit. Keep us on for cocktails, and your guests get relaxed, sung favourites while you're off having photos.

It's the kind of moment guests are still talking about at dinner.

What Does Harp + Vocals Need at the Venue?

The harp plays unplugged, and we bring a small sound system for the singer.

Give us a covered, shaded spot and a power outlet nearby, and your Band Manager sorts the rest.

Who we are

Who Are the Musicians?

We're full-time, degree-qualified Toronto musicians from the Glenn Gould School of The Royal Conservatory, Humber College and Juilliard. We've been playing live since 2009.

Every weekend we're reading an aisle and judging when a song should swell, and by now it's instinct. Tell us the songs, and the rest is ours to carry.

“Thank you for making our wedding day so perfect! We had a harpist at the ceremony who was absolutely amazing, then a singer on guitar who was pure talent and got everybody up dancing.”
Louise
“Red Soda did a fantastic job of organizing a harpist for our wedding ceremony and a guitarist/DJ for our reception! I love their huge selection of contemporary and classical songs that we could choose from for the harpist to play.”

Harp + Vocals: Frequently Asked Questions

How much does a harpist and singer cost for a wedding?

Two musicians: a harpist for the soft, shimmering sound your guests fall quiet for, and a singer for the big moments, so the prelude can stay instrumental and the voice comes in as the doors open. Harp + Vocals starts from $1,190 in Toronto. Travel within 30 km of Toronto is included, and venues further out are priced by distance in the Package Builder. All prices include HST.

Can we choose the singer for our ceremony?

Yes. Watch the singers in the Package Builder videos and choose the voice you love, male or female. Hearing the voices first makes the choice easy. Your Band Manager confirms your singer is available for your date before you book.

Does every song have to be sung?

No. You decide which songs are sung and which are played on harp alone. Many couples keep the prelude instrumental, so guests settle in to the soft sound of the harp, then bring in the singer for the entrance and the big moments.

What power does the singer need at the venue?

One power outlet within 3 metres (10 feet) of where the singer stands. The harp needs no power at all. We arrive up to 20 minutes before your booking starts to set up the harp and the sound system. Our instruments and sound system can't play in rain, cold or harsh summer sun, so plan a covered, shaded spot and an indoor backup.

Can the singer perform classical songs at our ceremony?

Yes. Couples choose classical pieces like Il Divo's "Nella Fantasia" as well as modern songs like John Legend's "All of Me". We sing both, so one ceremony can hold an aria and a pop song side by side. Song choices are due 8 weeks before the wedding.

What's the difference between Harp + Vocals and Instrumental Harp?

Instrumental Harp is the harp alone: calm, dreamy, and surprisingly full from one musician. Harp + Vocals adds a singer, so your songs are sung with their words and your guests know why you chose them. Both play your whole ceremony, and both can carry on after it while you have photos.

How many guests is Harp + Vocals right for?

Up to around 100 guests. The harp plays unplugged, and we bring a small sound system for the singer, so every word carries to the back row. For a fuller sound with a singer, String Trio + Vocals pairs the voice with two violins and a cello.
