Zhenya is professional, pleasant and her prices are reasonable.
Zhenya plays wonderfully. Dealing with her was the easiest of all my tasks as a mother of the bride. She's pleasant, flexible and responds quickly to messages. She advised us on the music to be played at the wedding but gave us the space to choose on our own. I highly recommend her.

Great violinist!
Zhenya was a pleasure to work with, responsive to emails, prompt arrival before our ceremony and played beautifully! I’d recommend her for any wedding!

I'm so grateful that we found Zhenya on WeddingWire! We hired her to play the violin for our wedding ceremony. We loved how her website had a list of recommended songs and recordings you could listen to. She also sent us a list of suggested songs, which helped us pick music for the bridal party processional, bridal processional and recessional. She also had her own equipment (like a stand and amplification system) which was really convenient, and she was transparent about her rate and what services are included. We absolutely loved her. She was so easy to work with and she played beautifully on our wedding day. Thank you, Zhenya!

Zhenya was incredible. Her timing was impeccable and her music was beautiful. If you’re looking for an elegant sound for your ceremony look no further. I didn’t have to worry about anything, I sent her my song choices and she did the rest. Such a professional, wonderful, and affordable violinist. I highly recommend!

Zhenya was beyond perfect for my wedding! Her music was absolutely beautiful, and it had my guests talking for days about how much they enjoyed listening to her play. She also looks stunning and professional when she arrives which is a must for any classy wedding. Would definitely recommend her to anyone wanting to take their ceremony or reception up a notch from a cd player or DJ. Worth every penny. Julie, September 2016

Zhenya played the violin for my wedding this May 2016 and she was AMAZING. I would definitely recommend her again and again.
She played beautifully, she was easy to talk to, easy to reach, and made very great suggestions. Zhenya was on time, polite and was wonderful to work with. She's professional and she really made our day special. Thanks so much again Zhenya.

If you are looking to make a beautiful, lasting impression on someone's
life or make an event extraordinarily special, look no further than the
gifted and talented Zhenya Zianouka! I first booked Zhenya for a dinner
event at Old Ebbitt's Grill on Christmas Eve. It was a special night as I
proposed to my partner of nine years and Zhenya worked with me to make it a complete surprise. She began by playing christmas music to everyone's
delight, walking up and down the aisle, engaging the whole crowd. Suddenly, she began playing Pachabel's "Canon in D" and remained by our table while I proposed. The whole night was magical, made even more so as she was willing to drive all the way into Washington late Christmas Eve to be part of this special night. My partner and I were married on April 29th, and the service was made complete with the beautiful sounds emanating once again from Zhenya's violin. Zhenya is talented, professional, easy to work with, accommodating, and a very kind person. I trusted Zhenya with two of the most special moments of my life, and I'm forever glad I did. I look forward
to the day when I can hear her play again

Amazing Music, Perfect Professional
Zhenya was a perfect violinist. Not only was her music flawless, she was a true professional and kind person to work with.
Zhenya was a recommendation to me. My husband and I wanted a solo violinist and Zhenya was the 100% perfect choice. Her music that is on her website is exquisite and exactly what we were looking for - elegant, enchanting, engaging.
Zhenya was very responsive when I submitted my request to her through her website. We worked everything out over email (even when she was overseas she was still on top of everything!).
When Zhenya arrived to the mansion where our ceremony was to take place, the guests were inside. The ceremony was taking place outside but everyone had not quite made their way out. So Zhenya, without any instruction from me or anyone else, saw a piano inside and started playing it! To my absolute delight, I heard beautiful piano music and wondered which friend could play that well. I saw that it was our amazingly creative, proactive violinist! She knew exactly what to do without any instruction or hand holding. What more could a bride ask for on her wedding day than someone being so thoughtful and resourceful, making sure the guests were entertained? Of course once everyone made it outside, she started to play the violin and it was so beautiful. She helped make our day exactly what we wanted and wished for - magical.
Zhenya was just perfect and I cannot praise her enough. I highly recommend reaching out to Zhenya for your wedding! You will be so happy that you did :)

Zhenya, was a hit at our wedding! She played both acoustic and electric violin during our ceremony and cocktail hr. respectively. She can play a wide variety of music (classical to modern day top 40) and can read the audience.
I would highly recommend her services.

Zhenya saved our ceremony and made it truly special!!! Once she found out that the bridal party was running really late, she just started playing and entertained the guests with a lovely variety of live music to fill the gaps. She was very flexible and was willing to do whatever it took to make it a special day for all. Our guests were thrilled and highly complimentary of her skill. We can not recommend her strongly enough!

Zhenya was wonderful to work with as we planned our wedding. She was open to our music suggestions/requests and was flexible with the flow of the service. Her prelude filled the sanctuary with a beautiful sound as guests were seated. Her renditions of You Raise Me Up, Can't Help Falling In Love, and Canon In D were very well received during the processional.
It was clear she had done this before - we did not have an official wedding coordinator. But, Zhenya was able to follow small cues to play the appropriate song. This alleviated so much stress during the day.
Thank you for bringing music to our special day, Zhenya!

Zhenya did a great job with the music for our church wedding ceremony. She was already familiar with the list of songs we asked her to play and her performance of them was terrific. I received many compliments from my guests on how beautiful the music was. I also found it easy to communicate with her beforehand in setting up the songs and other details.

This girl is AMAZING. Absolutely incredible. She completely made the wedding. I had a small ceremony of roughly 20 people at the Netherlands Carillon in Arlington, VA on 9/19. Zhenya was extremely accommodating and professional through the entire process. She not only allowed me to tack on an additional song at no cost (the Bridal March), but she also learned two entirely new songs in a short time period, and played them flawlessly. Every single guest had rave things to say about Zhenya, including the officiant who said that she was one of the best solo violinists he had heard at a small ceremony. 100% recommend, no hesitation. Love her.

Zhenya provided music for our wedding ceremony earlier this month. Her skill and professionalism were very impressive. She was readily available ahead of time via email to discuss song selections, and her fee was very reasonable. I also appreciated that her repertoire contained both classical and more modern options. Thank you to Zhenya for making our wedding ceremony so beautiful!

Zhenya's music was a beautiful performance for my wife and I during an early Valentine's dinner. Though hired for the two of us Zhenya handled the restaurant common dining room wonderfully. She played at a distance, and then strolled close for specific requests. The greatest joy was my wife's surprise at having a violinist play for our dinner, and the delight she had listening to the music! Zhenya was prompt, made cordial conversation with ease. From initial contact with Zhenya, through-out accomplishment of her performance she proved herself as a true professional. I highly recommend Zhenya!"

Having Zhenya as the solo violinist for our wedding was the best decision we ever made! She was very professional, accommodating and extremely talented. We had Zhenya play our entrance and exit ceremony songs, as well as play a set during our cocktail hour. She even learned a new solo musical piece just for us! I highly recommend Zhenya Zianouka for weddings and events, and would definitely use her services again in a heartbeat!

We are so grateful to have found Zhenya. Having her play
when I proposed to my wife made the moment even more special. We tracked Zhenya down to play when my wife walked down the aisle at our wedding and she again surpassed our expectations. Zhenya’s playing was flawless and very reasonably priced but what we loved the most was that she was able to play our unique song choices. We will be looking to utilize her again when we renew our vows

Zhenya was a dream to work with. She was extremely professional and quick to respond to our inquiry. Upon meeting her and hearing her play, we knew that Zhenya would be the perfect addition to our wedding ceremony. Besides being a lovely person, she is extremely talented and has a vast repertoire of songs she readily offered to play for us, and even offered to learn any other songs that we might otherwise want to include. And she was willing to travel to our wedding in Washington, DC. I would not hesitate to recommend her. She made such a special day even more memorable for us and our guests.
