Wonderful musicianship and professional communication
We chose ViolinMari to provide a violin-viola duo for our wedding and cocktail hour, and we couldn't have been happier with the choice! Leading up to the event, Mari was proactive and professional with communications. She worked with us to help us choose the perfect songs for our ceremony to match the tone we wanted. Her available selection had everything we needed, but we had a couple unusual requests for songs that were special to us and she was happy to accommodate with custom arrangements. To help us decide between a couple songs, she made recording so we could hear what the string versions would sound like, and she also sent audio files of the custom arrangements so we could listen in advance and know they met our expectations. Mari provided classical music for the ceremony and contemporary for the cocktail hour, and we were pleased with all of it. We loved the tone the music set, and our guests loved the music, too!Mari Hashimoto, Violinist's reply:
Hi Kristen! Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are thrilled to hear that you and Matt loved the music! It was an absolute pleasure to arrange and perform your special songs. I'm delighted that we could contribute to making your day memorable. If you have any more occasions in the future or need any musical services, don't hesitate to reach out. Thank you once again for choosing us! -

Wedding Violinist
I could not be more impressed by Mari — and her ability to completely capture our wedding guest. Walking down the aisle to the sound of her beautifully playing her violin was a dream come true. I can hardly wait for our wedding video to come back to hear it all over again. She is such a talent, so amazing to work with, and I can not recommend her more! She is a pure delight! -

Couldn't recommend more!
We could not recommend booking with Mari more! Mari performed during our wedding ceremony and provided postlude and prelude music, she even helped out with our officiant's microphone (which was not her responsibility but MUCH appreciated!) Mari learned a few special songs for us and sent us sample recordings before we finalized our decision, which was great. She is a very talented musician and her performance really tied together our ceremony. Mari was also very proactive in following up/scheduling meetings so it took a lot off of our plate throughout the wedding planning process in general! -

Highly recommend!
So happy we found Mari -- she was a great vendor to work with!! We were late in the planning process to book Mari, but she was patient and responsive to our questions and requests. We really enjoyed having the violin for our ceremony and cocktail hour, and our guests were impressed too. And given our outdoor venue, she was able to adapt quickly to new/different technical setups.

Great violinist for a perfect day. :D
We couldn't have asked for a more amazing violinist for our wedding day. She was absolutely epic — not only did she bravely play through the cold wind without missing a beat, but she also learned our favorite video game theme song just for us. I got to walk down the aisle to Riders of Rohan also! It meant the world to hear something so personal and special as we walked down the aisle. She was incredibly easy to work with from start to finish, and brought such a magical, emotional touch to our ceremony. We’re so grateful for her talent, her dedication, and the beautiful atmosphere she helped create on our big day. Highly, highly recommend! -

Great experience working with Mari!
I really enjoyed working with Mari for my elopement ceremony. She is incredibly professional and made the process very simple. She was very quick to respond to any emails, and she was also very helpful with the music selection. Mari's music at the ceremony was beautiful, and she made our small occasion feel so special. -

She was very attentive and though there was some pause in communication due to the hurricane, she made sure to make me feel like that everything would be OK, and it was! Great musician and amazing person. -

She went above and beyond!
Mari is phenomenal! Not only does the play the violin excellently, she also was there for us every step of the way from the moment we booked her to even after the wedding. She let us know her repertoire (which is vast). She had most songs we wanted already! However, we have a few others we were interested in. and specifically, I had a somewhat complicated request for her as my bridal party and I walked down the aisle. She played it flawlessly! I’m so thankful for her making the day special for us! She’s wonderful! -

Beautiful violinist for our Wedding
Mari was a pleasure to work with from start to finish. She was very responsive to questions and requests throughout the process. We had a destination wedding at the Biltmore in Asheville, NC and she made the process so easy to plan from long distance. She created a violin cover of one of our favorite songs and her performance was beautiful. We would definitely recommend Mari for anyone looking for a skilled and professional violinist. -

She is amazing!
If you are looking for elegant music, I highly recommend Mari! She is incredibly talented, quick with her response, and so easy to work with! She even learned a song that I have always wanted played for my wedding ceremony and she sent me several recorded versions and scheduled a call with me to ensure I was happy. We loved that she had a wide range of music to choose from and everyone we spoke too had such positive comments regarding her music during our wedding ceremony! We HIGHLY HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend Mari!! -

A Beautifully Played Set
Mari is a gem to work with! She is very organized and prepared which helped us feel less stressed on our big day. Her lovely violin playing was definitely a top favorite wedding day moment of ours and our guests too! We had a Legend of Zelda themed wedding and she was able to play all of the songs we wanted during our ceremony. 10/10 service; totally recommend!Mari Hashimoto, Violinist's reply:

Professional, talented, great communicator
Working with Mari was an absolute pleasure! She delivered a stunning performance during our ceremony, offering a wide variety of songs to choose from. She went above and beyond, collaborating seamlessly with a local harpist for a beautiful duet. Her communication was excellent, making the song selection, day of planning and payment process easy. Professional in every aspect, she dressed elegantly and performed with grace. Highly recommend her for any event!Mari Hashimoto, Violinist's reply:

Most Talented and Professional Violinist!
I was incredibly fortunate to find Mari about six months before our Daughter’s wedding. When we started to plan for music, we realized that having a violinist perform at the wedding would be so wonderful, dreamy and extremely memorable! So, we found Mari and contacted her! She responded right away… we had so many questions and corresponded over many emails and texts!…even adding a guitarist to play along with her! She was always extremely kind and professional… prompt with her communication! She coordinated everything for us and was happy to later change from playing with a guitarist to a Harpist! The performance was ABSOLUTELY AMAZING! Wish we could give 10 Stars!Mari Hashimoto, Violinist's reply:
Emily, Thank you so much for taking your time to write this sweet message! The harpist and I loved putting together and rehearsing your setlist. The song requests were beautiful, just like your daughter's wedding day! -

Amazing professionalism and top notch playing
Mari was fantastic. I asked Mari to put together an eclectic mix of music, mostly video game music arranged for string quartet. Song of the music wasn’t already arranged for string quartet and she arranged them herself or tweaked existing music to sound perfect. Mari was very communicative, punctual, and extremely organized, and all of the musicians were very professional and the playing was top notch.Mari Hashimoto, Violinist's reply:
Hi Mallory! Thank you so much for your review and letting me be part of your special day! I had a lot of fun working with you and Brett to put together your special piece! -

An Amazing and Budget Friendly Musician
Working with Mari was a breeze. She even helped us planning! Having a violinist play live played a huge role in making our day a success. Not to mention she was more affordable than other artist we spoke to. Our guests absolutely loved everything she played. I definitely recommend if you're looking for a great live musician who is also affordable.Mari Hashimoto, Violinist's reply:
