Lena was absolutely incredible! She is so talented, so sweet, and such a joy to have at our wedding. She learned my aisle song just for our ceremony, and hearing it played live was one of the most special moments of the entire day. It was even more beautiful than I could have imagined.
She played so beautifully throughout both the ceremony and cocktail hour, creating the perfect atmosphere. She also interacted with our guests, brought such a fun and warm energy, and everyone absolutely loved her.
Not only is she an amazing musician, but she's also the sweetest person and was such a wonderful part of our wedding day. We are so grateful for her talent and all the care she put into making our ceremony feel so personal and unforgettable. I couldn't recommend her more!

Lena was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. Her violin performance created such a beautiful, emotional atmosphere and truly made our ceremony feel unforgettable. It added such a special touch that our guests were still talking about long after the wedding was over.
She was incredibly easy to work with throughout the planning process. Responsive, accommodating, and genuinely invested in making our vision come to life. On the wedding day, her energy was fantastic. She brought such warmth and professionalism, and you could tell she truly loves what she does!
If you’re considering live music for your wedding, I can’t recommend Lena enough. She helped create one of our favorite memories from the day, and we’re so grateful she was a part of it.

sponsive, clear, kind, and wonderfully professional. It’s obvious she loves what she does and she’s truly exceptional at it!
Long story short, she absolutely crushed our wedding day. Her solo violin for the ceremony was stunning, and she handled everything seamlessly, arriving early, coordinating with our DJ and planner, and incorporating all of our special requests. We added the violin and guitar duo for our cocktail hour at the last minute, and I’m so glad we did. Her and her husband brought such great energy, and it was a totally different vibe than our ceremony! We received so many compliments on both of their performances on our wedding day.
Violenia Music offers so many options for different events and budgets, and Lena is a true pro. She shared tons of helpful resources to guide us through music choices and logistics to plan our day and really took the time to understand what we wanted and made it feel personal.
We’re so grateful she was part of our day, as she added moments that felt genuinely thoughtful and special. Thank you Lena for making our wedding feel so extraordinary, you are truly a gem!

We feel incredibly fortunate to have had Lena perform at our wedding, and I cannot recommend her highly enough. From our very first conversation to the final notes of the cocktail ...
hour, she exceeded every expectation.
Lena's professionalism was evident from the start. Her communication was prompt, clear, and warm throughout the planning process. She took the time to understand our vision, offered thoughtful suggestions for our ceremony and cocktail hour, and was completely reliable in every way. There wasn't a single moment where we had to worry about this aspect of our day—she simply took care of everything with grace and competence.
But what truly set Lena apart was her extraordinary talent. Her violin playing was absolutely breathtaking. Both the ceremony and cocktail hour were equally magical. Her repertoire was diverse and perfectly suited to the moment, creating an elegant backdrop that had our guests constantly complimenting the music.
Beyond her musical gifts, Lena's personality brought such joy to our celebration. She has this bright, warm presence that's absolutely infectious. Guests were drawn to her, and we watched as people approached her throughout the evening to express their admiration. Several friends told us afterward that her performance was one of the highlights of the entire wedding.
For the exceptional quality of music, professionalism, and the sheer happiness she brought to our special day, Lena offers incredible value. She is one of a kind and I cannot recommend her highly enough. Thank you Lena & Ryan.

I got engaged, she was one of the first vendors we reached out to. We hired both Lena and Ryan to play at our ceremony and cocktail hour on wedding day. The booking and planning process was stress-free and Lena was very easy to talk with throughout. I knew I wanted piano music during the ceremony so Ryan played piano while Lena played violin during our ceremony, and then he switched over to guitar for the cocktail hour. Everyone talked about how wonderful Lena and Ryan were and everything was flawless. They truly add an extra personal touch to your day. I would book Lena again in a heartbeat! Thank you thank you!

antic feature film and Violena crafted the perfect musical soundtrack. Once the ceremony was over, they moved to Cocktail hour where they transitioned to performers who energized the room with their incredible set. Finally, they played during our dinner hour where everyone in attendance was in awe. People could not stop saying that they sounded so good that they couldn't believe it was live, but there they were. Lena's communication was delightful at every interaction and her professionalism throughout the whole planning process put me at such ease because I knew I could trust her completely. My husband and I are fans for life and look forward to catching one of her shows in the future. Would hire Violena again for any and every event I have in the future!

eople I reached out to. Her talent and passion just radiates when she plays and I knew we needed her to be a part of our day. We hired Lena as a solo musician to play violin at our wedding ceremony, but you can hire any combination of her and her two group members who play sax and guitar/vocals/percussion for any part of your event. The booking and planning process was simple and stress-free and Lena was a great communicator throughout. You can pick your songs or let her do her thing - we did a combination (picked songs for the processional and recessional but let her choose the welcome/prelude music). She is VERY reasonably priced and is also so sweet and compassionate. On our wedding day, we had so many guests tell us how beautifully she played. I’d hire Lena again in a heartbeat.

Lena is absolutely amazing. If you haven’t booked her yet, go do that right after you read this review. She is professional, responds in a timely manner, and is the best in the bus...
iness. She has an incredible list of already played songs as well as the ability to learn anything prior to your big day. The sound quality was perfect despite a little wind and rain during our outdoor ceremony. She even provided a microphone for our officiant! We cannot say enough about Lena and her crew and are so thankful we found her!
