Wedding violinist
for Connecticut

From Greenwich to the shoreline: live violin for ceremonies, cocktail hours and receptions, played by a New York artist who treats the drive as part of the service.

Connecticut weddings have their own register: coastal clubs looking over the Sound, white-clapboard inns, stone barns and hilltop estates. Rooms like these ask for restraint first and spectacle later — which happens to be exactly how Sadie builds a wedding day.

The ceremony and dinner often belong to the classical violin: unhurried, close, every vow heard. Then the evening turns, and the transparent electric violin — an instrument your guests will not have seen anywhere else — takes the reception over, solo or with DJ, drums and saxophone from her hand-picked New York network.

Logistics stay invisible. A technical rider ahead of the day makes your venue's sound plug-and-play; where a garden, a terrace or a shorefront lawn has no system at all, she brings and runs her own — concert-grade, calibrated to the room and the wind. One artist, one point of contact, no surprises for your planner.

The day, in movements.

How it unfolds

The ceremony

On a lawn above the Sound or inside a stone barn: unamplified elegance where the room allows it, her own discreet sound where the shoreline wind asks for help.

Cocktail hour

Golden hour on the terrace, the program drifting from Bach toward film scores — the sound of a very good evening beginning.

Dinner

Classical violin between the tables, present without ever competing with the toasts.

The party

The transparent electric violin and the dress made of light — the moment Connecticut restraint gives way to a New York show.

Local FAQ

How much does a wedding violinist cost in Connecticut?

Programs begin at $740 and scale with the format: ceremony only, ceremony and cocktail hour, or the full evening. The quote is exact, per event, and holds your date for 7 days.

Which parts of Connecticut do you serve?

All of it, with Fairfield County — Greenwich, Stamford, Westport — closest to her New York base. Hartford, New Haven, Mystic, the shoreline towns and the Litchfield hills are all a send-your-date away.

Our ceremony is outdoors on the water. Does sound work?

Yes — this is exactly what her setup is built for. Where there is no house system, she brings and runs her own professional sound, calibrated so every vow stays above the wind and the waves.

Electric violin, or something more classical for the ceremony?

Both travel with her. Many Connecticut couples choose the classical violin for the ceremony and dinner, and save the transparent electric violin and the dress made of light for the evening.

Can she cover ceremony, cocktail hour and reception?

Yes — one artist across the whole arc, with the sound scaled to each moment, and one point of contact for your planner.

How far ahead should we reserve?

Peak-season Saturdays go 8–10 months out. Closer dates are always worth asking about — calendars move.

Do you play weddings in Hartford and across the state?

Yes — Hartford, New Haven, Mystic and the shoreline as readily as Fairfield County. She travels with everything her performance needs, and other wedding musicians in Connecticut can be added from her New York network when a reception calls for more.
