Emilie DN is a Calgary wedding harpist offering live music for ceremonies, cocktail hours and receptions. Her official website identifies her as Emilie Delorme-Newsom, an Alberta-based harpist serving the Greater Calgary Area, and outlines four wedding package formats.

The documented choices range from ceremony coverage with music before and after the service to ambient cocktail-hour and reception performances. A Celtic harp option is also described for couples interested in Celtic and pop arrangements. Prices are not published, so couples will need to request a quote and confirm the practical details that apply to their date and venue. Last reviewed September 28, 2026.

Services and specialization

The official wedding page organizes Emilie's services into four packages. Package 1 covers ceremony music, with examples including the processional, the entrance of the bride, signing of the register and recessional. It also includes approximately 30 minutes of music while guests arrive and approximately 15 minutes as guests leave after the ceremony.

Package 2 adds ambient harp music for the cocktail hour to everything in Package 1. Package 3 focuses on music for the cocktail hour and reception, while noting that those two services can be booked separately. Package 4 centres on Celtic harp and describes Celtic and pop arrangements for a ceremony, cocktail hour, reception or a combination of those parts of the day.

The homepage also documents experience at weddings, private parties, community events and corporate stages. For this wedding profile, however, the most relevant confirmed specialization is live harp music across several parts of a wedding day.

Service area and who it may suit

The contact section states that Emilie serves the Greater Calgary Area, while the biography describes her as Alberta based and says she performs regularly at events in the Calgary area. No more specific travel boundary or travel-fee policy is published in the supplied evidence.

The package structure may suit couples who want one musician to cover a ceremony alone, a ceremony followed by a cocktail hour, or a cocktail hour and reception. It may also be relevant to couples specifically seeking Celtic harp or a mixture of Celtic and pop material. Suitability ultimately depends on repertoire, venue conditions, timing and whether travel to the venue is available.

Confirmed strengths and practical limitations

A documented strength is the range of wedding-day coverage shown on the official package page. Couples can investigate ceremony-only needs, add cocktail-hour music, consider cocktail-hour and reception coverage, or ask about Celtic harp for one or several parts of the event. Package 1 also includes a complimentary consultation to discuss the wedding and select music.

The site says Emilie is happy to fulfil special music requests. This should be treated as an invitation to discuss requests, not a guarantee that every song or arrangement will be possible. Her biography also documents formal study at the University of British Columbia School of Music and study with Tisha Murvihill and Heidi Krutzen.

Practical limitations in the available evidence are that no street address, phone number, current prices, travel policy, amplification details, indoor or outdoor requirements, booking lead times or cancellation terms are published. These are missing details to confirm rather than negative findings about the service.

No published phone number or street address in the supplied official pages
Several logistical and contractual details require direct confirmation

Pricing

Prices are not published. The supplied official wedding page describes package contents but does not provide package rates, deposits, minimum booking periods, travel charges or other fees.

Couples should request a written quote for the exact combination of ceremony, cocktail-hour and reception coverage they need. The quote should clarify performance duration, consultation or arrangement work, travel, setup requirements, taxes and any extra time. Couples considering a special request should also ask whether arranging or learning that selection changes the fee.

Ask for the current price of the relevant package
Confirm whether cocktail-hour and reception services have separate rates
Ask whether travel, setup, special arrangements and overtime affect the quote
Confirm the deposit, payment schedule and cancellation or rescheduling terms

Contact and booking

The official homepage provides a contact form and lists the email address emilie.dn@hotmail.com. It does not publish a phone number or postal address in the supplied evidence.

An enquiry should include the wedding date, venue and municipality, the parts of the day requiring music, approximate start and finish times, and any preferred selections. Couples interested in Package 1 can ask how the complimentary consultation is scheduled. Those considering Package 3 should specify whether they need the cocktail hour, reception or both.

What couples should confirm

Before booking, confirm that Emilie is available for the event date and that the venue falls within her current service area. The website says Greater Calgary Area but does not define a travel radius. Ask about travel fees and arrival, setup and teardown timing for the specific location.

Discuss the ceremony cue sheet in detail, including music for guest arrival, processional entries, signing and recessional. If the event is outdoors, ask what shelter, temperature, wind and power conditions are required to protect the instrument and maintain the performance.

Couples should also confirm the exact harp to be used, repertoire availability, amplification needs, attire, breaks for longer bookings and contingency plans. A written agreement should identify the selected package, performance windows, special requests, fees and policies.
