Photos from this event
Julia was all around amazing. Was willing, able to meet and exceed all our expectations.
Julia played for my wedding, just recently on October 16, 2021, and she did an impressive job. She was on-time, personable, and just fantastic, overall. She played a mix of classical and contemporary love songs while guests were arriving, and after the wedding. She also played Ave Maria, the Bridal Chorus (processional), a solo of The Prayer, and the Wedding March (recessional). Hearing her play was beautiful, as well as delightful, and I would recommend her talents to anyone looking for a professional, accomplished violinist.
Thank you, Julia for making my special day memorable! :)
She was amazing. Went above and beyond, and she was very talented and kind. Would love to have her join in on future events. Very thankful.
Response from Julia Hoffmann:
Thank you, Aaron! Great meeting you.
Julia was a delight to have at our wedding. She learned a the songs we requested and filled in with other songs similar to our style. She was very flexible and even suggested things to make the experience that much better! Would 100% recommend Julia for your next event.
Response from Julia Hoffmann:
Thanks, Tim! I had such a fun time- thank you for letting me part of your big day!
Julia was absolutely amazing, she played some requested songs as well as some Other romantic songs. She helped make our night magical! Absolutely stole the show and was a great surprise for our anniversary dinner!! Definitely recommend for your next event!
Response from Julia Hoffmann:
Thank you so much, Aaron! I had an incredible evening playing for you and your wonderful wife for your anniversary!!
Julia is very sweet and as angelic as the music she plays. We put a lot of demands on her and she adjusted to our impulsivity with a smile.
She is exceptionally talented! And can play varying pieces.
Highly recommend
Julia did a fantastic job playing the violin at our wedding ceremony! She was able to learn all 3 songs we wanted during the ceremony in a matter of days through just YouTube videos: Coldplay-Clocks, Frank Ocean - Thinkin' Bout You, and Miguel - Adorn. The latter two were played over a beat and she absolutely nailed it!
She also played during our cocktail hour and was able to learn an additional Nepali song through just a YouTube video as well. Our guests were blown away!
Julia is a professional and we cannot recommend her enough! If you need a violinist and she is available, do not pass her up!
Until Julia was unabt to make due to a family emergency, she sent her colleague Juan, who did a phenomenal job. He played both songs I requested beautifully. He even let my daughter play with is violin to keep her occur during the ceremony (she's 2). I would definitely recommend.
Thanks so much for a wonderful evening full of music!
Julia came early, was flexible, and played great music
Julia music was on point. Only hiccup was her GPS took her to the wrong venue causing her to be late to the wedding, so she was unable to play while guest were being seated. Overall her musical talent is great!
