I don’t have the words to express how wonderful Ruby Jane was at our wedding and what it meant to the us and our family.. we got married in longhorn caverns and the sound of a solo violin in that environment was perfect, and instrumental in setting the mood and tone of what turned out to be a lovely and intimate ceremony.
Ruby was great to work with in the lead up to the event as well. Very responsive, professional and positive throughout the collaboration. She had a lengthy library of tunes to choose from, and was willing and able to learn a new one for the sake of the ceremony that was importation to us that it be included in the mix… Her execution was flawless from start to finish. Our big evening wouldn’t have been as magical without her. I can’t recommend her strongly enough to anyone booking a soloist for any occasion..
I needed a violinist pretty last minute and reached out to Ruby, and I am SO glad I did! She is incredibly sweet, professional, and so talented. Her communication was amazing from the very beginning! She was responsive, efficient, and made everything so easy.
Our ceremony was absolutely beautiful, and Ruby played such a special part in making it feel that way. Her music added the perfect touch and made the entire moment feel even more memorable. I truly cannot recommend her enough! I’d recommend Ruby a thousand times over! 🤍
