Enhancements

Make it yours

  • Parent Dance

    A father-daughter or mother-son dance performed live, one of the day's most photographed moments, made unmistakably personal. Pairs beautifully with dinner & featured moments.

    $249
  • Dinner & Featured Moments

    Live violin through dinner and the reception's featured moments (toasts underscored, the room held in warmth), ending as the dance floor opens and the night hands to your DJ.

    $749
  • Custom Song Arrangement

    Your song, even if it's never been written for violin, custom-arranged and rehearsed for your event. Especially loved for first dances, processionals, and proposal moments. Priced per song.

    $99
  • First Dance, Live

    Your first dance, performed live: on violin, sung, or both. The last note lands, and the dance floor opens. Works alongside your DJ; timing shaped with you at quote time.

    $450
  • One Sparkling Moment

    One featured piece at dinner. The lights shift, and for three minutes the room has its moment of concert-polish violin. Ambient before, ambient after; a highlight, never a show that has to carry the night.

    $350
  • Private Last Dance

    After the send-off is staged, one final piece played for just the two of you, the quietest, most personal moment of the night.

    $249
  • Performance Lighting

    Warm uplighting and a soft key light on the performance space, an elegant glow for photographs and featured moments. Set up and struck before your event begins, without touching your venue's rig.

    $299

    Two discreet wireless microphones (one for you, one for your officiant) mixed live into your ceremony sound so every word of your vows is heard clearly, even in the last row.

Great music and so kind and supportive!

Andreea was such pleasure to work with. She provided a list of songs she covered, but I wanted a Spanish song for our first dance. This song is so special to my husband and I. I provided the name of the song and Andreea learned the song and made it absolutely perfect.

She was absolutely amazing. We had to find a musician last minute and she was very flexible and helped choose songs and was very professional and helpful. 100% would recommend. When I came down the corridor to our wedding and heard her playing the violin with our hand picked songs for the aisle, I broke into tears. Never had a chance against the beauty that was her music! Great price as well, she was on time and cordial and bid us farewell before she left.

Andreea was amazing to work with and really professional. She made our ceremony extra special and all of our guests raved about the music. She is so talented and fun to work with. She even played Queen - Another one bites the dust for the guys to walk out to. Hiring Andreea for our ceremony music was one of the best decisions we made! Thank you!!!!
