Weddings by Karine

Your Love Story, Soundtracked Beautifully

I’m Karine—a violinist, vocalist, and lifelong musician who has performed at weddings since 1994. Music is my first language, and helping couples create meaningful, emotional moments is one of my greatest joys.

Every event is unique, and I work closely with you to design music that reflects who you are. Want a classic string quartet? A soulful violin solo? A custom version of your favorite song? I make it happen.

I don’t just cover your ceremony and cocktail hour—I can elevate your entire wedding day from start to finish. For your reception, I offer high-energy entertainment options, including a female DJ duo or a full live band for couples who want a vibrant, unforgettable party atmosphere.

With a network of exceptional musicians and experience in event production, I can also provide planning support, specialty lighting, custom song arranging, and coordination. My goal is always the same: to bring beauty, ease, and artistry to your most important day.
