Overview
Southern California Wedding Violinist 🎻
With over 16 years of experience playing the violin, my music will add a special touch and instantly elevate your event! I specialize in modern pop music covers, as well as contemporary love songs. However, I am open to learning all kinds of music, whether it’s for a wedding ceremony or simply a song you love! When I am not doing a gig, you can find me busking on the Huntington Beach Pier where I’ve performed for over six years.
I invite you to check out more of my music on my Instagram page at @davidmphung! I would love to be a part of your special day and am open to answering any questions that you have.

Having David play at our wedding ceremony was such a beautiful detail, and one of my favorite parts of our ceremony. He has so many song options, is such a hassle free vendor to work with, and is such a talented violinist. Would definitely recommend!

By far, David added SO much romance , class and beauty to my son's wedding. His music was capturing and brought so much fun and joy to our day. Being a wonderful communicator, kind and sweet personality and just can't say enough of his talent. one of the BEST Violinists I've ever met. ( I've met many in different events).
THANK YOU Dear David!
Violinist
David was THE absolute best! Communicative, Responsive, Punctual, and just SO KIND! His talent is next level, and exceeded all expectations. Everyone has not stopped raving about him.
I found David on this sight and also was in contact with other violinist. For me it was hard finding someone for one to build trust with and make sure for one they won't take my money and run! And for two is he really playing.
Before I booked David. I asked him if he would be open to a 3 min zoom call / google meet call so I can make sure he plays acoustically and not pretending to play. Way to many fakes going on pretending to play.
He played so many hit songs and did covers for many songs. He was over and beyond. He called us multiple times before the wedding to make sure if we had questions. Went over the song list and also made sure that the song list we picked that he was beyond comfortable to play.
I will most definitely utilize David again for future events when we need a Violnist!
Thank you David for your professionalism and outstanding service you provided.
If you are looking for someone to play covers songs. He is the guy!
David is the absolute best!! I had an elopement ceremony over the weekend at Laguna beach and decided to hire a violinist. David’s profile caught my attention and I decided to reach out to him. He’s very responsive with all of my questions and even goes above and beyond by sending me a video of a requested song via text before booking. I knew I had to book him! He has a great personality and his violin skills is phenomenal. He really set the vibe for my elopement and literally had most people in tears. 10/10 would hire him again!! Thanks David!

This guy is phenomenal. From his communication, to sending videos of him playing particular song requests for the bride and groom, to his amazing performance at the event. Book him ASAP, you will not regret it. 15/10 stars. Thank you David! 🙏

David was AMAZING! He was so professional from the moment I booked him, up until the day he performed at my wedding. I have zero complaints about him! All my guests would not stop talking about him. He definitely was my favorite vendor I had at my wedding, and I would recommend everyone to book him! 100% worth it! We have been married for 5 months now and we STILL get messages about our violinist on our wedding day!! If I ever have a wedding anniversary party in the future David is going to be my first call to book right away!!
