Testimonials
“Gloria is a joy to work with! She was so patient and lovely in every step of the process in preparing for our wedding, from choosing songs to coordinating the day of. She even learned a new song (a kdrama theme) on not too much notice which we were so excited for. It was a breeze to communicate all the details with her, she is clearly very experienced and talented. We would highly recommend her to anyone who is looking for a violinist for their wedding or event!” — Katelyn
“Gloria was nothing short of amazing before and during our wedding. She is really easy to communicate and coordinate with which made the music part of the wedding planning an absolute breeze!

It was absolutely perfect ❤️ Thank you so much for making our special day so romantic and unforgettable, Gloria!!” — M & R

“From the very beginning when my partner and I first contacted Gloria, she was always very friendly, professional, and responsive. We really appreciate how she accommodated every song request of ours. Gloria never missed a beat in performing our song choices for each part of the ceremony, and she performed each song so beautifully. My wife and I couldn’t be happier with how the music turned out – it was so perfect to have an amazing violinist in Gloria perform at our wedding. Thank you, Gloria!” — K & R
