"We honestly couldn’t recommend Anna highly enough! She was absolutely amazing and played such a special part in making our wedding day so memorable. From the very beginning, Anna’s communication was fantastic. She kept in touch with us throughout the build-up to the wedding, making sure she understood exactly what we wanted and that everything was perfect leading up to the big day. She was incredibly accommodating and made the whole process feel easy and stress-free. On the day itself, Anna was brilliant. She played beautifully for the bride’s entrance and also performed during our wedding exit, playing alongside vocal tracks through the speakers, which made both moments incredibly special. What really stood out to us was how willing Anna was to make the music personal to us. There were a few songs that meant a lot to us that she didn’t already know, including “Angel of the North”, which was particularly special to me as a big Arsenal fan. Anna took the time to learn the song especially for our wedding, which was such a thoughtful touch and meant a lot to us. Her talent, professionalism and attention to detail were exceptional, and the music created such a beautiful atmosphere throughout the day. Our guests commented on how fantastic she was too! Thank you so much, Anna, for helping make our wedding day so special and personal. We will always remember the beautiful music you provided and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend you to anyone looking for a wedding violinist. ❤️🎻"

FAQs about hiring Wedding Violinists in Wokingham
Take the stress out of hiring musicians with Encore
What kind of music can a violinist play?
Pretty much anything! Violinists will usually be most comfortable playing classical music, but that doesn't mean they won't be able whip up fresh renditions of your favourite pop, folk, or jazz tunes. Best to check first before asking them to play krautrock though.
Will I need to provide the violinist with any equipment?
Other than a seat for breaks, probably not. If your venue is small, they will likely play unamplified. All they'll need to make the music happen is their violin, a bow, and a receptive audience (oh, and probably a music stand). If your venue is larger, they should be able to provide amplification.
Do violinists normally play with backing tracks?
It depends. If you only want the violinist’s performance to include classical pieces, they probably won’t need backing tracks. If the violinist’s performance includes pop songs or other styles, they may be able to provide backing tracks to fill out their performance. They’ll often perform the melody line of popular tunes, alongside pre-prepared backing tracks (think: ‘Perfect’ by Ed Sheeran, or ‘Skyfall’ by Adele - these songs sound great played on violin!).
