Lara was super easy to work with and was such an amazing and gifted violinist. There were so many changes to my wedding ceremony and Lara just rolled with all the changes. We provided a list of songs we wanted her to play and she delivered! Most of the songs we asked her to play were contemporary/modern songs which sounded great on the violin. I HIGHLY recommend hiring Lara for your event.
