Highly Recommend

I had a wonderful experience working with Zhenya. We had a call prior to my wedding to discuss my vision and what sort of music aesthetic I was going for. We agreed on a plan and Zhenya was an experienced professional who was also incredibly warm and kind on our phone call. She knew all the right questions to ask to prepare for the big day!

Day of Zhenya arrived early and made sure everything was set to make sure I got my vision. Zhenya's performances really was a highlight for our night. Our guests loved her performances. She plays the violin skillfully and beautifully and it really elevated our event!

We can't say thank you enough!

So Beautiful!

The music was beautiful! We received many compliments. She was also willing to learn a new song for me to walk down the aisle to when I couldn't decide on one I really wanted. Super professional and worked with me to fit my budget. Highly recommended!

Zhenya did a SPECTACULAR job performing at my wedding ceremony at the Royal Sonesta! She was graceful, beautiful, elegant and played phenomenally! She accommodated me every step of the way from the time I messaged her to inquire about her services all the way to her following up with me to ensure I was satisfied with her services! Please, please, please book her for a TIME TO REMEMBER! My guest are still talking about her performance!
