Photo of Skapa Skapa "SKAPA played at our wedding and did an incredible job. From our first interaction, they were warm, professional, and genuinely wonderful to work with. They played all of the music we requested, including several custom songs, and everything felt thoughtful and personal. They helped make our wedding day feel special and unforgettable. We are so grateful and would recommend SKAPA without hesitation." 15th July 2026 Jared and Sumedha - Wedding Photo of eMiXa eMiXa "I highly recommend eMiXa! Communication was excellent from the very beginning. We came from Poland and decided to book her without ever meeting her in person, and it turned out to be the best decision we could have made. Even though the time of our wedding ceremony changed, she was fully prepared, flexible, and everything went according to plan. Her live violin performance during the ceremony created a beautiful and emotional atmosphere that made our day even more special. It is clear that eMiXa is highly professional, passionate about her work, and truly dedicated to what she does. We wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a wedding violinist." 17th July 2026 Karolina & Oskar, Poland 🇵🇱 - Wedding ceremony music Photo of Anton Violinist & Ensemble Anton Violinist & Ensemble "Thank you Anton You made our NYE musically so joyful !😀 Wishing you and your teammates a very happy new year" 11th August 2026 E.M. - Private NYE Concert Photo of Sax&Piano Wedding Music Sax&Piano Wedding Music "Simply extraordinary. We chose Sax & Piano for our wedding and we couldn’t have wished for anything better. From the very first contact they were professional, kind, and incredibly attentive to our requests. On the wedding day they created a magical atmosphere: the sound of the sax, combined with the elegance of the piano, accompanied every moment with emotion and refinement. Our guests were enchanted, and many of them asked us for their details. They perfectly captured the mood of the day, moving from romantic and delicate pieces to more lively moments during the aperitif. Outstanding musical quality and constant emotion. We are truly happy we chose them — they made our day even more special. We recommend them wholeheartedly." 19th August 2026 Anna e Christopher - Private Wedding Photo of John Nicholson Saxophone John Nicholson Saxophone "He was great to work with and guests loved him. He’s awesome!" 9th September 2026 Angela Naseri - Wedding Photo of San Francisco Bay Area Musician Harp Piano San Francisco Bay Area Musician Harp Piano "⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Mary Mei Brought Our Wedding Vision to Life! If you want a performance that will leave your guests in tears of absolute joy, you must book Mary Mei. For our recent wedding, Mary did not just provide background music—she curated a breathtaking, emotional journey that completely defined the magic of our day. Her ability on the harp, the piano, and the traditional Chinese Guzheng brought an elite level of sophistication and deeply moving artistry that we didn't even know was possible. The absolute highlight of the entire day was our wedding ceremony processional. As the doors opened and I began walking down the aisle, Mary struck the first chords on her gorgeous harp. The acoustics of the room filled with a sound so rich, angelic, and emotionally resonant that it instantly set a tone of pure romance and awe. It felt like stepping directly into a movie scene. Her pacing was flawless, seamlessly matching the energy of the room and creating a deeply personal, sacred moment that none of us will ever forget." 22nd September 2026 Jenny - Wedding
