Overview

Hi my name is Tony Navarro and I hold undergraduate and graduate degrees in violin performance from UCSB and am an actively performing professional violinist. I offer a variety of ensembles for weddings including solo violin, violin and cello, violin and harp and I can also accommodate string quartets. Regarding music, my colleagues and I can play any of the standard repertoire for weddings and I'm happy to discuss any other music for your wedding that I can find arrangements for. Please contact me with some details about what you have in mind so I can offer you an estimate for the event. I'm also available for special events like proposals.

I can’t thank Tony enough! My family absolutely enjoyed listening to him play while I was waiting to walk down the aisle. I would 100% book him again!

Wedding Ceremony Violinist

Tony was great! Showed up on time, and the music he played sounded great. He really made our ceremony special. I highly recommend him if you are looking for a violinist. I wish we could do it all over again! Thank you!

Violinist at My Petite Wedding!

Thank you so much for being such a beautiful part of our wedding day. Our guests truly enjoyed the music you played before the ceremony, it created such a warm and elegant atmosphere.
When I walked down the aisle and heard the violin, I was completely overwhelmed with emotion. It was such a powerful and unforgettable moment, and your playing made it even more special. The music added such a romantic and beautiful element to the entire experience.
I’m so grateful that we had you there, it was one of the best decisions we made. You were absolutely incredible, and we couldn’t have asked for anything more perfect.
Thank you again for sharing your talent with us and helping make our day so meaningful.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Tony was absolutely amazing as our violinist for our wedding ceremony! His playing was beautiful and really set the perfect romantic mood for the day, it honestly made the ceremony feel so special.

What we appreciated the most was how flexible and understanding he was. Several of our guests arrived late which pushed our ceremony start time back about 15 minutes, and Tony handled it so calmly and professionally.

He was kind, easy to communicate with, and very reliable. I would 100% recommend him to anyone looking for a talented and professional wedding violinist!

Beautiful, Professional, and Unforgettable

Tony was truly such a wonderful addition to our wedding ceremony. He helped set the tone in our beautiful space as our guests read their personalized letters before walking down the aisle, and it was absolutely magical. So many of our guests mentioned afterward how much they loved the music and how beautiful it was.

He was also incredibly flexible with our ceremony start time and reserved space, which we really appreciated.

Not only did Tony play beautifully, but he surprised us with a Spanish song when my in-laws came up to take photos with us after the ceremony — such a thoughtful and meaningful touch. He even continued playing while we finished our photo session, which made everything feel so seamless and special.

We are beyond grateful that Tony was part of our big day, and anyone considering a violinist for their wedding or special event should absolutely consider him. I would choose him again in a heartbeat!

What to expect

I put a great deal of care and effort into all of my performances, including weddings; I treat every wedding as if it were my own and ensure all the music has been properly prepared. Everyone I work with is highly trained, very experienced and fully capable of first rate music making. Professionalism is very important to me and I will always reply quickly and courteously to any communications.

About

I'm a Santa Barbara native who has played the violin for nearly 30 years. My undergraduate and graduate degrees in violin performance are from UCSB with Professors Yuval Yaron and Ertan Torgul. I perform actively with several symphonies, opera companies and master chorales. Please see my website (link hidden) for more details about me. I would love to help make your wedding an exceptionally special day!
