Wow! Wow! Wow!

Kimiko performed at our rehearsal dinner party and our wedding ceremony. Her range of different musical genres is incredible. All of our guests were in awe of her talent. Thank you so much Kimiko for making our wedding week one to remember!

Amazing

I had Kimiko for my wedding. It was an intimate ceremony and her music made the ceremony that much more romantic and dreamy. We had multiple guests tell us that they felt like they were in a concert hall listening to her play. During the planning process she was very accommodating and when I needed to make last minute changes she responded quickly to confirm. If I ever need another violinist she will be my first call. Highly recommended!!!!

Perfectly Professional Performer

Kimi is a very talented, approachable, & flexible violinist. She is capable of playing a wide variety of music very well. My guests & I loved the atmosphere her talent created. Would recommend Kimi to anyone who wants to add a little class to their event!
