Lara did an amazing job playing violin at my proposal!!

Lara played for about an hour at wedding ceremony in the park. She gave us a great list of pop songs she could play (accompanied by background music she played on a speaker) and learned “our song” to play as we walked down the aisle. She did a great job!

I cannot say enough good things about Lara! She performed at our wedding and all my guests were impressed and entertained by her talent. From the moment I found her till the actual wedding day, Lara was a true professional and communicated so well with me and gave us exactly what we were looking for. If I ever have another big event, I would be thrilled if we could hire her again. Book her! You won’t be disappointed!

Lara arrived on time and was well-prepared, dressing up. She was nice and played with excellent technique. We enjoyed a wonderful birthday night!
A...ma...zing! She is talented and professional. She really set the tone with her talent and poise for an unforgettable event. She understood the vision I had for my daughter's sweet 16 ceremony.

We booked Lara and her bassist friend for a corporate reception. Lara was very communicative and easy to work with. The music was gorgeous as well. Planning to book again!

Lara joined me on a few days notice to surprise my now fiancée in proposing. She performed perfect renditions of bespoke requests on a short notice, very communicative, and extremely helpful in making our vision come to life. Couldn't recommend more!

Thank you! I had such a nice time playing for your parents’ anniversary party.
If you are looking for a great violinist, stop searching. She is amazing! Everyone in my party asked who she was and how can they contract her. I gave a personalized Reggaeton Playlist and she played every song and not once did she dissapoint. Would use her again in a heartbeat.
Lara is truly an amazing violinist who truly made our proposal day special! She was not only punctual but collaborative and respectful of the moment. I had her play four Indian songs that she had never heard before and was able to perform to perfection by ear! Extremely experienced and would highly recommend!

Thanks so much, it was my pleasure!
Lara was absolutely amazing!! I hired her to play for my fiance and I at our surprise proposal. She played beautifully and added the touch my event needed. It would not have been as special without her. She was very easy to work with and a great communicator. We worked together on a song playlist and even tempos. I highly highly recommend!

Thank you!!
I hired Ms. Lara to play two songs at the funeral of my husband. She arrived early and is a professional. It is clear to see that she takes her craft serious. She learned to play two songs I requested within a few days. There was not a dry eye when she played Marvin Sapp’s the Best in Me. The next song was up tempo and people were singing along. Everyone told me how much they enjoyed her playing. She brought joy to a sad occasion. I would definitely hire her again as well as recommend her to any one looking for a violinist.
