Wedding.

I booked LaVianca for my son wedding. She was so beautiful and professional. She arrived early and set up. She spoken her word and got a standing ovation at the wedding. Just Awesome. I will definitely be using her over and over.

Amazing performance.

I enjoyed LaVianca both on set and behind the scenes. She is an amazing actress, talented, determined and has a strong voice. Although Sassy’s character was completely out of her comfort zone, she performed the role to Perfection.

Great Performance!

Passionate performance and loved every bit of it. She performed at my wedding and you could feel the words. I would strongly recommend her to someone that is looking for a spoken word artist.
