I hired California Magic Strings to be the violinist for my wedding ceremony and cocktail hour. I couldn't have chosen any better performer. She nailed the songs I specifically requested for my bridal party, and on top of that she amazed my guests during cocktail hour with her beautiful music. Highly recommended!
California Magic Strings played at my wedding last Saturday and it was beyond my expectations! Dalila, the violinist, learned 2 specific songs I requested for the ceremony and her renditions were superb. I highly recommend California Magic Strings to any couple.
California Magic Strings played an integral part in making our wedding possible. They arrived earlier than scheduled, leaving plenty of time to check mikes and make sure everything was working correctly. All the guests enjoyed their arrangements, and they were very communicative to make sure all our needs were met. They were both professional and talented. I would highly recommend them for a nice touch to any event.
Dalila of California Magic Strings is an amazing performer! Her communication from the time we booked her up to the start of the event was impeccable! She followed our instructions to the T. It was a surprise proposal/birthday dinner so discrepancy was imperative!! She was very accommodating as the restaurant could not allow her to enter until the actual proposal! While performing she actually brought tears to our eyes! The bride said yes and Dalila sent her off with the perfect “Let’s gets married” by Jagged Edge song! You won’t regret booking her, she’s reasonably priced, professional, and an all around beautiful person! Her energy is surreal and unmatched! No regrets at all! She was very well prepared and we appreciate the effort!

We kept getting great feedback from friends and family saying they loved California Magic Strings. I got positive feedback from the venue and our wedding coordinator on how professional they were and they played what was requested and honestly I'm very happy with hiring them!!!
Dalila was great! Very good at communicating. Hired her for my Wedding Ceremony, Played amazing, my guest gave me many compliments on having a violinist, they loved how she played. I would definitely hire her again when needed for other events. Thank you Dalila you made my special day even more special.
Dalila showed up early, was extremely polite, had all her own equipment and played the violin for our guests during our wedding reception! Everybody was dancing and having a blast. I highly recommend her for your wedding.
She played the songs we wanted perfectly and provided a phenomenal atmosphere for our wedding ceremony. I don't intend to have another one obviously, but if I did I would book her again.
Not only did Dalila play beautifully, she saved the day by helping with the sound by connecting the microphone to her system.

We hired California Magic Strings to play during cocktail hour for our wedding in Redondo Beach. Dalila is incredibly talented and our guests absolutely loved the music she played. Our reception was at a hotel and we even had hotel guests that weren't attending our event share that they loved listening to her play while they were out by the pool! The booking process was super easy and Dalila was very responsive. Definitely recommend hiring California Magic Strings to play at your next event!
California Magic Strings were awesome!!! They are very talented and were perfect in setting the tone my daughter wanted for her wedding ceremony. I am SO VERY HAPPY with their performance and will definitely be using them again as well as recommending them. They made are special day EXTRA special! I had a couple of requests, which they accommodated. And asked her to use her judgement with a third song and she picked my granddaughters favorite (Hallelujah/Shrek song), without realizing it! I was already asked where I got them; that tells you I'm not the only one that LOVED them :)
"This is so honest and pure I had a beach wedding in Malibu on November 6 and Dalila has been so amazing and kind and sweet and understanding. I wanted to have her practice a few days before with my sister cause my sister was going to sing along with her but my sister flight got messed up. So Dalila came early on our wedding day to practice but me the bride was running late cause so many things was hectic but she waited and was kind and so understanding. Everything turned out so beautiful and I was so happy to have her apart of our day. It was an all white beach attire and she wore just that without any problems. I was so thankful for everything."
