Welcome!

Welcome to my interactive web site! I have been in the wedding industry for 27 years and have played at least 2500 weddings. This gives me a fascinating perspective, much of it poignant, memorable and hilarious.

Some weddings are unusual, such as transgender, same sex, cult, nudist or on horseback. I've played a Lord of the Rings wedding that was conducted in Elvish. Some are lavish and others are fleeting, such as one where a communist defector married at the airport. Some have been interrupted by accident (bride fell and broke leg on step to altar), one came to her wedding in an ambulance escorted by a nurse holding her IV. The tragic ones involved alcohol.

Did you know playing at the Columbia Tower Club involves 48 elevator rides to set up and break down? And there is a wonderful tunnel system under the streets to get from the load zone to inside the Fairmont Hotel in Seattle.

My harp has a $50,000 replacement value with over $10,000 of 23 kt. gold leaf. It is very delicate, yet I move it myself, often many times a day. I have a unique profession, a unique place in the community and a unique perspective to share. I would like to be enriched by hearing from you as well!

Skyline Holiday Concert!


Susan,
 Thank you so much for a wonderful evening of music and adventure here at Skyline.  You played the harp so beautifully, and you were very generous to allow me to pluck the strings.  I believe that tonight will be one of my favorite memories of the 2013 Holiday Season.  The photo you sent will be a treasured reminder of the occasion.
 It is a bold request, but if it is not too much of an imposition, would you send to me the group photo also?
 Al and I wish you a holiday season filled with love and joy.  Once again, thank you for making our Christmas special.
Hoping to see and hear you in the future,
Peggy and Al MacRae
