Outdoor Events
Janelle Jansen Lake always brings her best harp to outdoor events in order to sound good. Because there are more variable factors to an outdoor event, Ms. Jansen Lake must know the following:
- What is the back up plan in case of inclement weather? (The harp cannot get wet at all and you must be aware that Ms. Jansen Lake will need to cover the harp and seek shelter immediately in the event that precipitation could harm the harp. This includes blowing spray from fountains.) Also, the temperature must stay between 65 and 90 degrees Fahrenheit for the harp to remain glued and intact.
- Is there a 4' by 4' solid surface for Ms. Jansen Lake to set up on? The harp cannot sit on top of grass, gravel, sand, dirt, or uneven cobblestone. She can bring her own large board if needed.
- What is the most direct route to get to the event? Sometimes she will need to wear special harp moving shoes if she needs to walk a long way.
- How will she be sheltered from the sun? The harp cannot sit in direct sunlight for an entire event.
Wedding Rehearsals
Janelle Jansen Lake is a very experienced harpist with over ten years of wedding experience. Wedding rehearsals are not neccessary and are not included in her fee. She will allow plenty of time on the day of the wedding to speak to any members of the wedding party and the presiding officiant regarding details. However, if you would like to hire Janelle Jansen Lake to play for your rehearsal or rehearsal dinner, please contact her with your date and time to determine her availability.
