Harry Hardin and New Orleans Finest are a NO BRAINER when it comes to choosing ceremony music. They are: accommodating, patient and classy. They can play anything including a very beautiful version of Bob Marley's 3 little birds... I would confidently use them again in a heart beat.

I was more than pleased all around with your service and performance. The ceremony music was something I was a little nervous about as I wasn't sure of song choices and instruments. You were extremely helpful in choosing the type of instrument and the music, and set me at ease!! The violin was a beautiful choice and my guests gave me many compliments on the ceremony music. I would recommend you to anyone in the future!! I'd like to thank you again for working with me one on one in planning and adding to our wedding day!! It was perfect!!

What I heard during the ceremony was wonderful-especially the trumpet fanfare before Angeline's entrance-it gave me chills!! The trumpet was worth every penny-it added so much... Thank you so much for all you did and on such short notice at that. Out of all the arrangements I had to make for this wedding - yours was the easiest (and the most fun!) Angeline and Josh thought everything was just perfect and that's the most important thing. Thanks again,

I heard Harry Hardin play at several weddings and knew immediately I wanted him to arrange the ceremonial music when my daughter would be married. Recently when planning my daughter's wedding I contacted Harry and planned this important day with him. Harry was flexible, had great recommendations and was willing to learn new music. Harry is an excellent musician and a true professional. He was able to help us plan exactly what my daughter and her future husband wanted for their wedding music. Harry answered all of our questions and offered many options during the planning process. When the wedding day arrived I was totally pleased with the music and presentation. I highly recommend Harry for any musical event.

FIVE GOLD STARS (where the limit of possible starts to attain is four)! 2 Thumbs up!!! Harry, you did an absolutely perfect and amazing performance for my wedding ceremony! I couldn't have asked for anything better. I always knew I wanted someone to play the violin at my wedding and I'm so glad I found you! Also, your communication and music suggestions in the planning process were a huge help! Music was beautiful; you were very professional, friendly, helpful and punctual!

"We are so happy to have included Harry Hardin and New Orleans Finest Musicians in our wedding plans. From the very beginning, Harry was very professional, responsive and easy to work with. He was also patient and thoughtful in helping us select the right instruments and the perfect songs for our ceremony. He even worked with us to have his ensemble learn a strings arrangement of one of our favorite rock songs for our grand exit. On the day of the wedding, the group was punctual and everything went smoothly. The music itself was beautiful and added a lot to the ceremony. Thanks again for being part of our big day!
