Dongbin Shin

Communication 10/10, Performance 10/10. We went with the Trio for our wedding. Dongbin and his fellow musicians hit every note and created an atmosphere we will never forget. The music selection is very large with room for suggestions. I would love to see/hear more content via media tof his impressive performances. Awesome stuff!!

We couldn't be happier with the performance of Dongbin for our wedding. We had countless guests come up to us and say how amazing he was.
Communication was amazing prior to the event. If we could rate 6 starts we would!!

Dongbin was incredible! Not only was his playing beautiful, he was a great communicator and joy to work with the whole way. He approached everything with flexibility and a genuine desire to make things great for us. He made a special day easy and enjoyable for us! We’re very grateful to have met him and that we got to work with him, will definitely be hiring him again! Forever a fan!

As my parents age, we have started to enjoy experiences more than tangible items for presents. Dongbin came again to their house around Mother’s Day and played in the living room. The sound quality was excellent—last summer he played outside and it was a very different experience. He learned a new song as well as played several classical pieces we selected from his list. Very happy with Dongbin and his music!

This group was everything we expected and more. They sounded absolutely beautiful and was the perfect touch to our ceremony. Dongbin was so attentive throughout the planning process leading up to the wedding. He would respond to emails within 10 minutes and was very professional. I would recommend this group 10 out of 10 times. If you are looking for that final touch to make your event even more unforgettable, hire this group!

I always envisioned one day walking down the aisle to "A Thousand Years" by Christina Perri and thanks to Dongbin my dream has come true. He and I were in touch a few times via email before the wedding and he was always very responsive. I even asked for additional music selections for the ceremony recessional and I chose one of his suggestions (Marry Me by Bruno Mars). What a perfect song to close out the ceremony. I love watching the wedding video over and over again. Aside from actually getting married, my favorite part of the wedding ceremony was walking down the aisle to Dongnin playing "A Thousand Years". Truly a vision and dream come true.

In addition to his fast response time and playing beautifully at our wedding, he was also very friendly. I highly recommend!

Dongbin is exceptionally talented as a musician, easy to work with, personable and connected with his audience, and very well-organized. He played for our ceremony at our home and also for the reception at a local Inn, including our requested “first-dance” song and others. There were both classical and contemporary pieces played beautifully. The music he played was so fantastic that people in nearby areas of the Inn were coming by to see who it was! I highly recommend Dongbin (and any accompanying musicians he brings) if you want to have unforgettable entertainment and bring your event to a whole new level.

Mr. Shin is an incredibly talented and skilled musician who made our day special! From our first contact, he was gracious and helpful. We are ballroom dancers, and Dongbin suggested a Viennese waltz whose timing was discernible even with a solo violin, and he provided a sample for us to practice. We had a COVID-compliant, 24-guest wedding, most of them musicians. Instead of dancing, Mr. Shin provided a mini concert with dinner that was just the right touch, a delightful mix of classic and top 40s. Without exception, each of our guests complimented us on our selection of Dongbin. My husband said it best when he says Dongbin makes his violin sing!

This made our Morher’s celebration of life so moving. We are a family of musicians. We were thrilled he knew our parents favorite Old standards and we mixed in some classical. This made a sad day brighter. Showed up on time and a pleasure to work with. Consummate professional I highly recommend👏👏👏👏

Dongbin is an excellent violinist. He was prompt, friendly and a pleasure to work with.

I hired Mr. Shin to play several songs for my parents’ 50th Anniversary at their home. Due to covid, and my parents’ health issues, we needed something special that could be held outside, following mask protocols. He learned their wedding song, and also played several other selections I chose from a list of options. Mr. Shin’s musicianship was absolutely lovely, his attire professional, and his response time to messages through gigsalad very prompt. He also arrived at the promised time. His fee was higher than others that responded through the website, but the quality was well worth it, and I selected based on consistently good reviews. We highly recommend him!

A wonderful mini-concert in our backyard. Dongbin is professional, personable, and talented. He accommodated a couple of special requests with amazing arrangements, was flexible with our schedule, and the whole family loved his performance. Reasonable cost too. Would highly recommend for any special occasion or just for a unique experience from a talented musician.

Dongbin Shin was wonderful to work with - detail oriented, responsive and accommodating for every detail of our event. Our guests were impressed by the quality of music during our event. We couldnt have been more satisfied by Dongbin Shin!!

Thank you for playing at our wedding. It was perfect!!

Very punctual, and extremely professional. He is very talented and you can tell he loves what he does by the way he takes care of his Violin.

We hired Dongbin's trio for my wedding. We can't express how grateful we are to them for making our wedding so perfect and special. Dongbin is very reliable and easy to communicate with, let alone his absolutely beautiful play. Highly recommend!

My fiance and I booked Dongbin Shin for our September wedding ceremony (9/8/18) and were blown away by the quality of music and Dongbin's overall professionalism. Every step of the process was seamless and on the day of our wedding the music was exceptional. Our guests loved the personal touch Dongbin's music added to our ceremony and gave him nothing but high praise. I would highly recommend Dongbin for any occasion. Thank you.

Dongbin was phenomenal! His music made our wedding day very memorable. He played two unique pieces for us and our guests loved every moment of his performance. Highly reccomended!

Dongbin was absolutely amazing and he made our daughter 's wedding so special! We had so many guests tell us how beautiful Noah and him played. Some even said that they had tears in their eyes because it was so moving. The wedding was on December 16th and he played a variety of music from classical to Christmas songs. He was a pleasure to work with and always would get back to me so quickly if I had a question.You will be totally in awe of how much talent he has if you hire him for your special event!

Dongbin (and his pianist) made our wedding ceremony even more perfect than it already was. We hallenged him with 8-9 modern songs to play and he executed flawlessly. He was easy to communicate with during the process, prompt in his arrival and exuded professionalism. We were thrilled by his performance and would strongly recommend him to anyone in need of a violinist.

We were so fortunate to have Dongbin Shin play at our wedding ceremony and then again during the cocktail hour of our reception. Let me just say that this is the guy you want if you're looking to impress your guests and add some major elegance to the event. Dongbin's professionalism was apparent from the time we began our correspondence and he truly gave us an unforgettable performance that impressed our guests. There's no need to worry about getting your money's worth when hiring Dongbin as he is the best of the best. His passion and dedication to his profession will set the standard for a truly unforgettable experience. Thanks so much Dongbin for giving us the gift of such beautiful music on our wedding day!!!!!!!

Excellent musicianship in lively environment! Dongbin a pleasure to work with and everyone appreciated the elegant music!

We can't say enough about how great he was!! Everybody is talking about how beautiful he played and how talented he is. He was a pleasure to deal with before and during our wedding. We highly recommend him for any event.
Thank you Dongbin for making our small wedding ceremony so special!
