With over 14 years of experience as a professional musician, pianist, harpist and singer, I specialise in creating unforgettable musical moments for weddings across Ireland and abroad.

Originally from Galway and now based in Dublin, I’ve had the honour of performing at hundreds of weddings - from intimate ceremonies to large celebrations. My musical style blends classical, contemporary, traditional Irish, and jazz influences, offering couples a unique and personalised soundtrack for their big day.

Whether you’re walking down the aisle, enjoying a relaxed drinks reception, or celebrating with family and friends into the evening, I tailor each performance to suit the mood and setting. One thing that sets my music apart is my signature jazzy twist, which I bring to everything from classical pieces to modern love songs.

Over the years, I’ve performed at many of Ireland’s most luxurious venues, including The Shelbourne, Powerscourt Hotel, The Westbury, The Merrion and the Intercontinental Dublin. I’ve also played at weddings for some of Ireland’s leading influencers, which has helped me grow a strong reputation in the wedding community.

My international experience includes performances in Venice, Dubai, and Germany, and I’ve had the incredible opportunity to play on the Royal and Island Princess cruise ships—bringing my music to couples and guests from all around the world.

We honestly couldn’t recommend Katherine enough. She played piano at our wedding and made the day feel even more special and personal. She is incredibly talented, and the music was absolutely beautiful.

I had no idea where to start when it came to choosing the music, but Katherine was so helpful throughout the whole process. She guided us with great suggestions, understood exactly what would work, and took so much of the stress out of making the decisions. She was professional, organised and such a pleasure to deal with from start to finish.

The music on the day was just perfect and created such a beautiful atmosphere. We had so many compliments from our guests about how lovely the piano music was.

Thank you so much, Katherine, for being such a special part of our wedding day. We couldn’t have asked for anyone better! ❤️

Katherine is extremely talented and professional.
She easily understood and brought to life what we envisioned for our big day. We knew she was good and I was really excited to have her as a musician at our wedding ceremony, but her performance really exceeded all my expectations. Her clean, elevated and elegant sound and her beautiful presence will make your event unforgettable.
Thank you again Katherine🤍

Katherine played for both our ceremony and reception, and she completely blew us (and all of our guests) away.
From day one, she was super easy to chat with, incredibly relaxed, and very open to learn the specific songs we wanted for our specialday. She took all the stress out of the planning process and felt more like a friend helping us out than just another wedding vendor.
The mood she set during the ceremony was so sweet and emotional, and then she seamlessly flipped the switch for the reception and had everyone in the mood for the celebrations ahead. Her instrument skills are top-tier and she knows exactly how to read the energy of the room. People are still asking us where we found her!
Honestly, Katherine was one of the biggest highlights of our entire day. We couldn't have asked for a better vibe!

Her piano and harp performances created the most beautiful atmosphere throughout the day, from our ceremony to the drinks reception. So many guests commented on how stunning the music was. Katherine brought such magic to our wedding — we couldn’t recommend her more highly!

Hard to put into words how good Katherine (and Neil) were. Everyone knows the big day goes by in a blur, but we have lovely memories where we remember just stopping and being in the moment to listen to Katherine...only she could freeze you in the moment on your wedding day, both she and Neil were just exceptional, every single guest at the wedding was blown away. She has such a range on instruments, voice, and music that she offers and honestly she just nails every song...Katherine's performances will move you and your guests, she certainly did for our wedding...not booking her will be the biggest mistake you make. Exceptional value for money! We are considering crashing her future weddings, so if you book her, let us know, we promise we won't turn up, promise, honestly ...maybe.

Katherine is an incredibly talented musician and we were so lucky that she was available for our wedding day. She played the harp and piano for both our ceremony and drinks reception. During the ceremony she accompanied my friend who sang songbird and the voyage. They only met that morning and sounded like they had worked together for years!
Katherine has a great repertoire and provides a really helpful guide to help you choose your songs for the day. I couldn't recommend her more!

We were incredibly privileged to have Katherine perform at our wedding. Her talent is truly exceptional—she effortlessly mastered the tunes we requested and showcased remarkable versatility throughout her set list. From the piano to the harp, her musicianship was flawless, and her beautiful singing voice added an extra layer of magic to the ceremony. Katherine was not only professional but also an absolute delight to work with, making the entire experience seamless and memorable. We cannot recommend her highly enough!

Katherine was an unforgettable part of our wedding day. She played during the ceremony, and her performance was so moving, her voice brought real emotion and beauty to the moment. From the start, she was incredibly supportive, offering thoughtful suggestions and helping shape the ceremony in such a personal way. In the weeks leading up, she ran through everything with us and made it clear we could check in as often as we needed, and nothing was too much trouble. Her calm, warm presence put us completely at ease. On the day, the music was seamless, heartfelt, and perfectly timed. So many guests told us how special it felt. We couldn’t imagine the ceremony without her. Katherine truly helped make the day everything we hoped for, and we would recommend her in a heartbeat.

We were lucky enough to have Katherine play during our wedding ceremony and reception last year.

I had always wanted to walk down the aisle to a specific piece that myself and my dad love, but given it's not widely known I didn't think I would be able to find someone to play it. Katherine kindly took the time to learn the music and played it flawlessly on the day making such a special moment for us.

So many of guests complimented the music on the day - we really couldn't recommend Katherine more.

We had Katherine perform for our church and drinks reception. Katherine is multi-talented and there literally isn’t anything that she can’t play. She was amazing to work with and was such a great help when it came to choosing our music for the church too. I would highly recommend her for your big day!

Katherine was just incredible we couldn’t recommend her highly enough!
She went above and beyond to accommodate us and even learned how to play a special song for us the night before our wedding. It was such a thoughtful touch and meant so much to us.
We also had a separate small church family wedding prior which was last minute change but Katherine went out of her way to make sure she was there for us.
She is incredibly talented, so lovely and easy to work with, and her music made our day even more special. We’re so grateful to have her there & would highly recommend her for any special occasion! 🩷

Katherine is an amazing talent and has such a cool repertoire of classic songs mixed in with new. She also does some surprising versions of songs you think you know, but with a twist. All of the guests were talking about how cool the music was. We had her perform during the canapés and it really elevated the whole thing. Very cool and original which I loved. She also played just for me and my husband while we took 10 minutes to ourselves before the entrance to dinner and it was honestly such a special moment. My favourite was the song Robert Miles ‘Childre’ played on piano and fiddle. It was unbelievable.

We had Katherine play music for our church service and also our wedding reception in Kilshane house in 2023. Everyone on the day commented on the beautiful music and how talented a musician she is. From the stunning sound of the harp in the church to setting the atmosphere in the orangerie in Kilshane we loved having her. She can really play any song and has the ability to put her own twist on it. Would highly recommend her.

Exceptional-from beginning to end Katherine exceeded all our expectations.

We had the pleasure of having Katherine perform at our wedding, we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. From the very beginning, Katherine was extremely professional, accommodating and eager to create the perfect atmosphere for our wedding day. Her piano and harp skills are incredible, as are vocal skills-so many of our guests commented on what a talented musician she is. The wedding venue was so impressed with Katherine’s music that they contacted me in the weeks following our wedding to ask for her contact information for future events.

I genuinely cannot recommend Katherine highly enough, she truly made our day so special.

Katherine is a world class musician and it was an honour to have her play at our wedding.


From the moment we first reached out, her professionalism, warmth, and enthusiasm put us completely at ease. In the lead-up to the big day, she was a joy to work with—always communicative, flexible, and genuinely invested in making our day a success.

Katherine performed at the church and our reception. She played piano beautifully, and her singing is incredible. Family and friends still talk about Katherine and the music on the day.

We were so lucky to have had Katherine as part of our celebration. She brought pure magic to our wedding—we can’t recommend her highly enough!

Katherine is so kind and professional. Her talent knows no bounds as she has such a huge repertoire of pieces. To be honest she could probably have learnt anything I requested and the spin she can put on it will make you love the song even more. Everyone at our wedding commented on how beautiful the music was and she also did our reception for us which was stunning as well. Couldn’t recommend Katherine enough to any future couple looking for a musician for their wedding. 🩵

From the second I first met Katherine I new that's who I wanted to walk down the aisle too. Katherine played both our church music and entertained our guests for the drinks reception in the hotel. Katherine is beyond talented and was so accommodating to any of my requests. Thank you again for making our day so special.
