Amazing trio and DJ

Yuri and his team performed at our wedding. I’m a classical music enthusiast and my husband prefers anime songs. Yuri and his team managed to seamlessly blend both genres, playing both classical and anime songs in the trio. The DJ also contributed significantly to the overall ambiance, elevating the entire experience. Their exceptional work and the great value they provided were truly remarkable.

Amazing!!!

Yury went above and beyond to help make our wedding ceremony special. His price was reasonable and he performed our favourite songs so well. He even went undercover to surprise our guests at the location we chose! Such a lovely man with such good communication, despite having booked him over 12 months in advance of the big day! Do not hesitate to book, you will not be disappointed :-)

Professional, Graceful, and Perfectly Performed

We had Yuri and another musician play for our ceremony, and they were absolutely perfect. The music sounded beautiful and created such an elegant atmosphere. There were a few last-minute changes to the song order, and they adapted so smoothly and professionally without missing a beat. Everything came together beautifully we couldn’t have asked for a more graceful performance. Highly recommend!

Wedding Ceremony

I don’t have enough words to thank Yury and his team. I recently hired a violinist and a guitarist for my wedding ceremony. Yury was very responsive in the days prior to the ceremony, accommodated every request, showed up with his team timely on the day of the ceremony and followed the priest’s instructions to the letter. I was pleasantly surprised by the quality and the professionalism of his team but what sets him apart was how accommodating and understanding he was when the ceremony was delayed by more than an hour. He recognized how special that day was for me and my partner and rolled with the punches by extending the playlist and being as helpful as he could under the circumstances. I would recommend him without any hesitation.

Highly recommend!

Yury was amazing. We had a rain delay after the ceremony. Yury played privately for my husband and I as we were hiding from the rain and getting some shots with the photographer. It ended up being one of my favorite parts of the day - dancing and singing with my new husband with beautiful music playing. Feeling so lucky we found Yury and booked this company!

An Unforgettable Performance

We had the absolute pleasure of having Yury play at our wedding at 620 Loft and Garden, and he was nothing short of exceptional. From the start, he was flexible, professional, and incredibly kind, making the entire process stress-free. On the day itself, his performance was phenomenal, his music created the most magical atmosphere and truly elevated the entire experience. Our guests couldn’t stop complimenting his talent and energy. Yury is not only an outstanding musician but also a joy to work with. We couldn’t have asked for a better addition to our celebration and recommend him wholeheartedly!
