Francesca played for Wedding on Valentine’s Day. It was on the beach. It was the perfect day! She didn’t excellent job on her music. She even took the time to learn a new song, and it came out beautifully. My husband and I are very happy that we hired her!

Francesca was invaluable to making our wedding special for us. Not only was the music beautiful, but she was very easy to communicate with, professional, and kind. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a violinist for a special occasion.

Francesca was absolutely FANTASTIC. She plays so incredibly well. We had a wedding this past weekend of 100 guests and she did our ceremony and cocktail hour. Not only were we taken back by her talent i was so grateful to how professional and sweet she is. We gave her full reign after selecting some of our favorites and she did not disappointMy fiancé was thrilled to hear her play for our family and friends. I still can not get over how amazing she played ! . I will hire her and recommend her for any event. She had all of my guests either crying and/or dancing !
