Beautiful Violinist!
My husband really wanted a violinist during our wedding ceremony and found Brian. I am so glad he did because the ceremony music and music beforehand was beautiful! Brian was able to play every song we wanted and was so easy to work with. Definitely recommend for a wedding or event! -

Talented, responsive, great to work with!
I can’t recommend Brian enough! He is extremely talented—even able to play songs that aren’t well known and, to my knowledge, didn’t have sheet music. He is also responsive, flexible with song choices/changes, and so kind!
Since we eloped and our ceremony was very short, he even gave us a discount. He is reliable and absolutely wonderful to work with! As a musician myself, I can say that he is one of the best violinists I have ever worked with. 10/10! -

Stop looking and book Brian!
We reached out to Brian in 2019 for our 2020 wedding, which we had to move twice thanks to COVID. Brian was always responsive and patient. We had a string quartet that he organized and even played a song request we had and we just had to pay for the sheet music. It was great and lovely to have him and the quartet playing before our ceremony, the processional, and recessional, then during our cocktail hour. Brian even met with us via zoom leading up to the event to go over logistics which we appreciated. Our guests had nothing but good things to say and were happy to see/hear live instruments for the first time in a while. Thank you Brian and the quartet! -

Consummate professional, highly recommended!
We were fortunate enough to be able to enlist Brian to perform for our wedding ceremony. He was incredibly easy to work with when we were planning our ceremony - he was not only super receptive to any musical suggestions or requests we had (and he accommodated ALL of them superbly), he also had tons of ideas and suggestions when we needed them. When the big day came, his musical performance was just top notch. I can't say enough about this. We elected to go with just Brian (solo violin) for the event, and the effect was awesome. Our guests were blown away by his violin playing, and we're still getting compliments on what a great touch this added to our wedding. We cannot recommend Brian highly enough! -

A wonderful violinist
My husband and I got married two weeks ago, and Brian played violin for our outdoor ceremony and cocktail hour. Hiring Brian was one of the best decisions we made in our wedding planning! He was extremely flexible (we had to replan our wedding due to COVID) and very professional. He even learned a new song for me! Our guests had wonderful things to say about the music, and I have never felt more beautiful than walking down the aisle to the sound of live violin music. I highly recommend Brian and the beautiful music he plays. :) -

Covid Engagement
Brian was amazing!! His playing just made my son's engagement proposal perfect. He played a special requested song, went along with the surprise proposal and was professional with covid protocols.
I highly recommend Brian for any event. -

Outstanding!
We received SO many compliments about Brian and pianist at our ceremony. Brian is extremely talented and the sound of his music as guests entered the church brought tears to my eyes and gave me goosebumps before I even walked down the aisle.
I got married in a Catholic church and Brian was very knowledgeable of the format of the ceremony, and helped me pick out songs for each part of the mass. Brian went above and beyond - he doesn't just show up on the day of the wedding, he was a huge help throughout the planning process.
I forever envisioned walking down the aisle to Pachelbel Canon and Brian did not disappoint. I am so thankful he was a part of our wedding ceremony and cannot recommend him enough!!!! -

Daughter's wedding
I happened to find Brian on The Wedding Knot. I'm glad I did. He never wasted time getting back to me. Always in a timely manner. My daughter requested a song at the last minute. A week before her wedding to change her ceremony song. It was not on his list but he told me not to worry, that he would know it by her wedding. He played it beautifully. We had him play for the ceremony and for cocktail hour
We received so many wonderful compliments and couldn't be happier.
Thank you Brian . You made her wedding so classy and elegant!

Thank you so much Brian for playing at our wedding. It was so beautiful and the music made it more of an intimate wedding for us. My husband and I loved all the songs you played for us. We will remember that day forever. Thank you again! -

Amazing & The Best Vendor to Deal With!
Brian was amazing to work with! He was honestly the easiest of all of my wedding vendors to deal with as he responded promptly and did not blow up my phone & emails regarding details, etc. People came up to me after the wedding and told me that Brian (and his music choices + violinist talent) were their favorite part of my wedding! He was so professional and, even more so, talented! He really made my wedding day! Thank you, Brian! -

Amazing!!!!
Brian was absolutely amazing to work with! When asked he was more than willing to play along with my church’s pianist and did all the leg work to reach our to her. I’ve always had a love of violins and knew I wanted one at my wedding. Brian was literally so easy going and kind in his responses. His music was absolutely beautiful and I cannot say enough good things about him. Will be recommending him to anyone and everyone. THANKS BRIAN!!!! -

The Best in Chicago
I was looking for a violinist for a recording session when our session violinist couldn’t make it last minute. Amazingly, Brian contacted me right away to volunteer for the session - he believed in our project and was looking forward to it just as much as we were! Extremely talented and professional. A couple months later we hired Brian to perform for my brother’s marriage proposal at the Ritz Carlton rooftop - beautiful !! -

Absolutely awesome!!!!!!!!!!!
I can’t emphasize enough how thankful me and my new husband in choosing Brian as our violinist for the ceremony. He is very professional and response very quickly (to a bride, that’s extremely important). He worked with us in choosing our songs in various parts of the ceremony. I did not have any worries at all about the music during the planning stage as I trusted him that he will do well and yes— he did a great job in our actual ceremony. Bryan is a great musician and I would highly recommend him to all the couples out there looking for someone to play violin in the most special day of their lives! -

Brian was great! We had an outdoor ceremony and his music was a wonderful addition. He was very responsive to emails, provided a list of songs to make my job a little easier, and even took requests from my father while we took pictures. He played beautifully! -

Brian was great to work with from the start! He always responded quickly to all messages and provided helpful information and song lists to help me plan the music for our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour. He arrived early and followed our ceremony script perfectly to play music at all the right times! He is a very talented violinist, would definitely recommend! -

Wedding hire
I hired Brian for my late August wedding this year and it was one of the best decisions that I made in regards to picking my vendors. He was responsive, polite and very flexible . He offered musical suggestions when requested and was very professional throughout our contact and the wedding performance. He played so beautifully and it was such a memorable experience for my guests as I’m still receiving compliments on his performance. I would not only work with him again but would recommend him a thousand times over ! -

Brian is so so talented. He played for our wedding ceremony held at a Catholic Church on 6-1-2019 and we couldn’t have been happier. He was very responsive to all my questions and professional. He had to work w the music director of the church directly and took care of everything to make our wedding exactly what we had hoped for. Thank you Brian!! -

Top notch violinist
Brian was extremely accommodating. He was willing to play in under 25° weather to make my brothers engagement everything we imagined it could be. The dedication to his craft really shined through in this moment. We were incredibly privileged to have him play for us. I would highly recommend Brian for any and all functions calling for his skill set. -
