Live Violin Music for Your Italian Wedding
Italy is one of the most romantic wedding destinations in the world, and the right music can transform it from beautiful to absolutely unforgettable. If you are planning a destination wedding in Italy and looking for a professional violinist who understands the unique magic of this country, you have come to the right place.
My name is Margherita Valente. I am an Italian violinist based in Turin, trained at the Conservatorio di Alessandria, and I have dedicated my career to providing world-class live music for luxury destination weddings across Italy. In over seven years of professional activity, I have performed at more than 250 weddings; from intimate elopements in ancient Tuscan farmhouses to grand celebrations on the shores of Lake Como.
Wedding Ceremony
During the ceremony, the violin sets the emotional atmosphere from the very first note. Whether you walk down the aisle to a classical piece or a contemporary arrangement of your favourite song, live violin transforms the moment into something deeply personal.
Reception
During dinner, the violin can become the backdrop to your first conversations as a married couple — elegant, unobtrusive, and deeply romantic. But also creating itinerant shows and evocative performances.
Cocktail Hour
During the cocktail hour, I create an atmosphere of warmth and sophistication that puts your guests at ease and sets the tone for the celebration ahead. Classical pieces, light jazz arrangements, or contemporary pop covers — I read the room and play accordingly.
After Party
During the party, the electric violin takes centre stage. High-energy performances, pop and contemporary covers, and a vibrant stage presence that brings your guests to the dance floor.
Classical and Electric Violins
I offer both classical violin and electric violin, and the two instruments create very different atmospheres. Classical violin is perfect for ceremonies and intimate moments — its warm, resonant tone fills a space with emotion and elegance. Electric violin is ideal for cocktail hours, dinners, and especially receptions — its contemporary sound, often accompanied by backing tracks, creates a modern, energetic, and visually spectacular performance.
Solo, Duo, Quart ed Ensemble
Every wedding has different needs, and I offer a range of formations to suit yours. I perform solo violin for intimate celebrations. For a richer sound, I offer violin duo or string quartet. For something truly spectacular, I can perform alongside saxophone and piano for a full ensemble experience that combines classical sophistication with contemporary flair.
