Last update: December 2025

Jess is a classically trained violinist with a punk-rock heart, who believes music is at its best when it turns a moment into a memory. With over 15 years of professional performance experience, she brings warmth, energy, and a genuine love of celebration to every wedding and event she plays.

Equally at home on acoustic and electric violin, Jess shapes the music to suit every part of your day. From elegant, romantic moments on acoustic violin to full-on party vibes on electric, she’s always happy to turn things up and get the dance floor moving should you want her to. Her repertoire spans timeless classical pieces, modern favourites, 80s classics, pop songs, and contemporary wedding songs, with every setlist carefully customised to reflect your special day.

Fun, bubbly, and highly intuitive to the flow of an event, Jess has a natural ability to put guests at ease and elevate the energy in the room. She’s always happy to learn special requests in advance, helping to create a soundtrack to your day that feels completely personal and unmistakably you.

What Jess Offers:

Jess usually performs on acoustic violin, offering a blend of solo classical pieces and modern covers. She typically prefers to play solo, as this allows for greater freedom and flexibility — particularly during special ceremony moments such as walking down the aisle. However, a speaker can be provided, and Jess is always happy to perform with backing tracks if that is what suits your day! She supplies all necessary sound equipment for your event and is glad to discuss song choices and bespoke requests in advance.

On the day, Jess can perform as guests arrive, during key moments of the ceremony, or even later at the afterparty. For a refined, elegant atmosphere, a solo violin is always a beautiful choice. If you’re looking for something more upbeat or high-energy, Jess can also perform classic rock, 80s favourites, pop, and modern hits on electric violin with backing tracks and is always happy to bring her punk-rock sensibilities to your dance floor.

Jessica Wedding Violinist at Our Wedding in London

Jessica played solo at our wedding in London. She met us beforehand to discuss our particular needs, learnt the music we wanted, played for us as we walked up and down the aisle and also during the reception. Jess was professional, an excellent musician and appropriately dressed. We would definitely recommend her for your wedding or any other occasion.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to make your big decisions easier.
