Very talented and thoughtful singer.

Kristen is an amazing, talented singer. She sang for a funeral mass, and our experience could not have been smoother. She is professional, took care of all the little details, and was easy to communicate with. Most of all, her voice was simply beautiful and she really conveyed the emotion behind all the lyrics. She was a great comfort during a difficult period. Thank you, Kristen!

Kristen is the ultimate professional. I am a musician myself, and Kristen and I have been working in the same professional circles for many years. When it came time to plan the music for my own wedding, Kristen was the obvious choice! I never had a moment’s worry, knowing from experience that she is always on time and prepared, and she will sing beautifully. She is extraordinarily organized and will think of all the logistics in advance so you don’t have to. We couldn’t have been happier with the way our music turned out!

Kristen was exactly what we wanted in a soprano for our wedding ceremony. In addition to a beautiful voice, she was wonderful to work with. Kristen went through the extra effort to ask what we'd like her to wear, and matched the color of our flowers. Months later, guests are still complimenting the music at our wedding, specifically Kristen's rendition of Ave Maria. Would highly recommend!

Kristen was AMAZING!! Not only
does she have a beautiful voice, but she is so kind, helpful and incredible to work with! Kristen helped me pick music, figure out where to put songs and even sent example Catholic wedding programs for me to use when designing mine. She also recommended organists for me!! I couldn't have asked for more and all of my guests loved her. Without her, the ceremony music at my wedding would not have been as perfect as it was!

Kristen's voice is angelic. I just wished I wasn't so emotional during my wedding to enjoy more of her voice. Kristen is such a beautiful person to work with from the planning to the performance. I can't say more good words about her voice than to say that if I were to ever plan another event for live singing...there is no doubt whom I would call again.

Where can I start with Kristen? Not only is she the ULTIMATE professional and has a BEAUTIFULLY SURREAL voice, she is also personally SO AMAZING AND FUN to work with!

For my wedding day, I wanted to walk down the aisle to one of my favorite songs, "To Be Loved" by Michael Buble, and reached out to Kristen to sing this song live during my ceremony. Little did I know what I was about to put her through, but Kristen went ABOVE AND BEYOND for me the entire time, including emailing me helpful advice on everything from vendors to musical/song selections for my ceremony as well.

For one, there was no instrumental version of the modern rendition of the song. Kristen literally saved the day by tracking down the original version by Jackie Wilson on her own, and worked hand-in-hand with our DJ to coordinate/rehearse to make sure everything went perfectly. I was so, so happy to be able to walk down the aisle to my favorite love song and it was ALL possible thanks to Kristen. Friends and family alike kept commenting/complimenting Kristen's voice to me on AND after our wedding day!

She is a superbly talented singer and we are so grateful and fortunate to have had her lend her voice to us on our special day. There is no one else I'd recommend more for as a musician and soloist for any occasion!

I was very lucky to stumble upon Kristen's website when looking for a soprano to perform for our wedding. I was also in search of an tenor and Kristen was able to find one for me. Kristen is an absolute professional and worked with my budget. She has a voice of an angel and had me and a number of guest in tears when she performed 'Ave Maria'. I even hired her to give my daughter voice lessons. If you are looking for a professional soprano vocalist she is definitely the perfect person for the job. ?

The song that Kristen sang for our first dance was beautiful! When she was done, all of our guests asked her for an encore, which she did! I've had the privilege of hearing her sing again since our wedding and she is still amazing!

I have goosebumps from the first time I heard her voice singing the Ave Maria. Often we don't think about the music until an afterthought. Do consider Kristen first to sign at your wedding and you will be enthralled as I was.
