Review by Madeline R.

Wedding CeremonyReviewed on October 9, 2023From Southwick, MA

We booked Sam for our Sept 2023 wedding ceremony and cocktail hour and they were incredible! They were professional, prompt, and very communicative. We thought having a violinist would be completely out of budget but Sam was affordable and skillful. We are so glad we had Sam play at our wedding, what a special touch!
