Violin and Ukulele

My husband and I got married in Malibu on September 12, 2021. The violin and ukulele combination stood out to me when I was searching online because it felt like it had the beachy yet classic vibe that our wedding was going to be. Jeff and Ilona exceeded my expectations and were so wonderful to work with- which as a bride- a communicative and reliable vendor is extremely important! They were so responsive and flexible to our needs and their play list is extremely extensive- they can play just about anything from classics to todays hits! My guests were so impressed with their performance and are still mentioning how beautiful and unique this duo was for our ceremony and cocktail hour. Thank you to Jeff and Ilona I hope I am able to use you again in the future!

My husband and I couldn’t have been more happy with you two playing on our big day! You guys played beautifully and everyone loved you. Thank you again.

We hired Jeff and Ilona for our wedding in Big Bear,CA. They were amazing and super flexible, all of our guests loved them, they were one of the highlights of our wedding, they could play pretty much any song requested and in a beautiful manner. They traveled over 150 miles through a winter snow storm and canceled personal events to be at our wedding. I cannot express how fortunate I feel to have had them be a part of our wedding. Thanks Jeff and Ilona! Juan G

This group is the greatest!! We had guests complimenting them all evening. I didn't think we'd find such talented and flexible musicians that could play such beautiful music for our ceremony but then switch to pop tunes for our cocktails! Our guests loved hearing Bruno Mars and Bob Marley during our cocktail hour. I'm so glad my wife decided to go with these amazing musicians instead of just a boring string quartet or guitar player! This group really raises the bar for unbelievable music for your wedding ceremony or cocktails. I've recommend them to lots of people already . . . they're highly professional people that will make your wedding sound great.

You guys were so easy to work with, and very professional! You sounded amazing for our outdoor ceremony. You responded to all of my emails promptly, you were very polite about it when the bride wanted to change all of the ceremony songs a few days before, and you arrived for the ceremony in plenty of time to set up and get situated. I only wish we could've spent more time listening to you! It's so awesome to hear Coldplay and Queen performed by such amazing classically trained musicians. I've already recommended you guys to a few people at our wedding that were asking about where we found you. Thanks again!

Finding the words to describe this couple and the magic they produce is hard. From the moment we made contact to the very last e-mail we exchanged they were absolutely our best wedding vendor. So many requests went in on our part, but there wasn't anything they weren't flexible on. They completely created versions of songs that weren't done before and every time I hear them I get teary eyed because of their soulfulness. Our wedding took place on the sand at the beach with many restrictions, but again they went above and beyond to make the ceremony absolutely beautiful. Honestly, they were the highlight of the ceremony!! I have been constantly telling people about this duo and how our wedding would not have been the same if it weren't for the sheer heart-felt music they produce. In the future, for any event, I will refer to them and I will recommend them to everyone I can. If the most important part of the whole wedding day for you (as it was for me) is that moment when you first see your husband to be at the end of that aisle, this is the couple that gives you more than you thought you could feel when you first set your eyes on him. Thank You, Ilona and Jeff for being the absolute most amazing musicians we have ever had the pleasure of experiencing. You two truly made our wedding day magical.

“The Best Ever” is right!!! You guys were A-MA-ZING!!! Sooo many people commented to me how beautiful the ceremony music was. It really made my fairytale wedding vision come to life! Much love! :)

OMG, you guys were amazing!!! Our guests couldn't stop talking about what a great idea it was to have your violin/ukulele duet play instead of just a string quartet or guitarist. You made our ceremony and cocktails come alive! I would strongly recommend you to any other couple that wants their ceremony music to be more elegant and special than a typical wedding. And you were so friendly and easy to talk to. I especially loved how you switched from classical music on the ukulele for the ceremony (thanks for playing that Bach song for me!) to pop tunes for the rest of the evening. Thanks again, you made our day awesome!!
