we appreciated her so much and she was flexible with us when some of our guests were late and we had to push back the start time.
Everyone loved her performance and it made the ceremony so special. Great communication and what a pro!
Erika was awesome. She was the perfect accompaniment to our wedding. She made it truly special. She was also extremely helpful and accommodating with finding songs we chose. If I could rate her higher than 5 stars I would.

Thank you for the kind words! Had a great time playing for your wedding!
I 12/10 recommend Erika for all of your violinist needs. She was easy to communicate with, on time, and very easy going. Erika took song requests and set a beautiful playlist. She was even flexible when it began to rain! Erika made our wedding day absolutely magical. Thanks again, Erika!

Thank you so much Nikki! You all were so wonderful to me, and I wish you both a happy and long life together!
