Hazel Alexander Violinist

We booked Hazel & her sister Lynn for our ceremony & reception music at our wedding in May and we couldn't have been happier. Hazel was so lovely to deal with in the run up, always happy to answer any questions we had and always quick to respond. They very kindly took the time to find and learn a new arrangement for our exit song to make sure it sounded perfect on the day. We couldn't recommend Hazel more!

Hazel played violin for us and our guests before and during our reception. She responded quickly to all of our queries and requests, and was perfect on the day. We could not recommend her highly enough - thanks Hazel.

Hazel was excellent to deal with and her music added so much to our day. We requested one song that she had not played before but it was no problem for her to accomodate us! Would highly recommend

We had Hazel play at our wedding on March 13th in Killashee, and she was absolutely incredible from start to finish. She was so lovely and professional to deal with throughout the whole process, making everything completely stress-free.

Her performance on the day was stunning and created such a beautiful atmosphere for our ceremony and reception. So many of our guests commented on how amazing she was. Hazel truly made our day feel extra special and memorable, and we couldn’t recommend her highly enough to any couple planning their wedding.

Hazel provided exceptional ceremony music for our small church wedding back in February. She was a pleasure to deal with from the outset, and had a really useful call with us in advance to advise us on what music would work best at each point in the mass.
On the day itself, the music was top notch. We had a small ceremony with only 15 guests, and all of them were full of praise for the music afterwards.
We would highly recommend Hazel for wedding ceremony music!

Hazel was incredible on our day. Her playing was beautiful and created such a lovely atmosphere, so many guests commented on how amazing she was. Professional, talented, and a pleasure to deal with. We couldn’t recommend Hazel more.

We’re so lucky to have found Hazel to perform for our wedding. Her dedication, attention to details and passion to learn new tracks have made it such a special experience working with her!!

Hazel was great, very easy to deal with and has a wide range of songs and musical pieces in her repertoire.

The music on the day was great and she played the pieces beautifully.

Would recommend to future couples looking for musicians.

We had hazel playing at our wedding ceremony, the music she played was beautiful. Hazel was so helpful with putting the ceremony together and made great suggestions that complimented our personalities. Lots of guests also commented on how beautiful and moving the music was. We would highly recommend Hazel to anyone, she really added to the atmosphere of our ceremony.

We hired Hazel as our wedding violinist in July and she was absolutely incredible! Her performance during our ceremony was breathtaking and created such a romantic, intimate atmosphere. So many of our guests commented on how beautiful and moving her music was. Hazel's professionalism and talent truly shone through, and she added an elegant, personal touch that made our wedding day even more memorable. We couldn't recommend her more highly. She made our special day truly magical with her beautiful playing!

We cannot recommend Hazel enough. We were honestly blown away with how stunning the music was, she was so responsive. Nothing was too much and we are so happy we chose her. We can't thank her enough for the timing, and having each song to perfection. She made our ceremony that little bit more perfect and we can't thank you enough for being part of our day.

Hazel was wonderful throughout the planning phase, helping us in deciding the music we would like - nothing was too much trouble for her, even sending short samples of songs!

On our wedding day Hazel was brilliant and she really added a lot to our day! Really couldnt recommend her more!

Thank you Hazel!

Hazel was a pleasure to deal with from start to finish. both the music for our ceremony and drinks reception went down a storm.

Hazel and her sister Lynn (cellist) performed at our wedding ceremony and drinks reception.

We found Hazel great to work with, she has a huge repertoire of classical, modern, pop and film music to choose from, and she even learned a new piece especially for our ceremony.

The music made the ceremony much more personal and intimate.

We would highly recommend Hazel and Lynn to anyone looking for a bespoke choice for their wedding ceremony/ reception.

Hazel was an absolute dream on our Big Day and the service she provided was outstanding. Hazel went out of her way to fit us into her busy schedule and we will be forever grateful. Hazel was part of our church ceremony and having her there made it that extra bit special.
Lovely lady to deal with and will always highly recommend 🎻

Hazel was absolutely amazing and so talented. Not only she made our ceremony so much more special by being part of it with her beautiful music but she also provided us with outstanding service leading up to the wedding. She responded to any of our queries with kindness and reassured us with our song choices. I would recommend Hazel to anyone looking for beautiful music on their wedding day. Thank you so much again. Diana & Gerry

We were so impressed with Hazel not only from the beautiful music she played during our ceremony and welcome drinks, but also her professionalism and communication beforehand. Hazel worked with me to surprise my husband with a special song that she learned especially for my entrance during the ceremony. We were also able to request our favourite songs from her repertoire for during the welcome drinks. This was really important to us as we both love music! Hazel was incredible and our day wouldn’t have been the same without her.

My husband and I were so lucky to have Hazel and her lovely sister perform at our outdoor ceremony in the K Club in May this year. From the moment we first got in touch, Hazel was wonderful—so responsive, friendly, and genuinely interested in helping us create exactly the atmosphere we envisioned!

The communication was fantastic. Hazel was always able answer any questions, and offer thoughtful guidance about the music choices. Nothing was ever too much trouble. This was great especially since my husband and I live abroad! They were able to play every piece we asked for, which meant so much to us.

On the day itself, everything was set up so professionally that we didn’t have to worry about a thing. We just knew we were in good hands. My walk down the aisle was quite long, and the song we chose, brought to life by the beautiful cello and violin combination, made the moment so much more emotional and memorable.

Their music truly made the ceremony. It was elegant, heartfelt, and perfectly suited to the amazing sunny day we were blessed with. So many of our guests commented on how special it felt, and so many people had tears in their eyes when the bridesmaid started down the aisle due to the emotion they felt when the music started playing.

We would highly recommend Hazel and her sister to anyone looking for talented musicians who not only play beautifully but are also a pleasure to work with from start to finish. Thank you again for helping make our ceremony so beautiful and unforgettable :)

The violin is such an emotive instrument and Hazel performed spectacularly. Communication before the wedding was perfect. Quick responses and guidance as well as giving some new songs a try for us. I'm really looking forward to watching our wedding video so I can listen to it all over again. Would happily recommend Hazel for anyone looking for a violinist for their wedding.

My husband and I were so lucky to have Hazel and her lovely sister Lynn preform at our outdoor ceremony in Meath in May this year. From the moment we contacted her, the chats over the phone and all Hazel’s lovely guidance throughout-she was wonderful. I made sure Jarlath and I took a couple of moments during the reception to just stop and listen to their beautiful music 🎻🎶 we can’t thank you both enough for being part of our day 💍 thank you xx

Hazel and Lynn played the ceremony music for our wedding in Culmullen Church and it was truly amazing. All of our guests commented how beautiful the music was and how it complimented the church. Hazel even went the extra mile to learn Bruce Springsteen waiting on a sunny day for our exit song as it’s our favorite and we both we delighted walking down the aisle listening to it. Could t recommend Hazel enough!!

Couldn't be happier with the service Hazel and her sister Lynn provided for our wedding in City Hall. From the get go, Hazel was attentive, accommodating and put us right at ease. Probably knows City Hall like the back of her hand at this stage so was really able to use the acoustics to her advantage and make our songs choices sound incredible on the day. If your looking for a wedding violinist I'd look no further than Hazel. Many thanks again Hazel & Lynn :)

Any song I requested hazel was able to deliver it she played so beautifully couldn’t have picked anyone better

Before I begin, I want to preface: I am American. Any planning we did with Hazel was via email, WhatsApp message, or video call. Despite being six hours behind Hazel, she was very flexible and it was easy to communicate with her.

Hazel is fun to work with, enthusiastic, adventurous, and an overall joy to be around. And, of course, incredibly, incredibly talented.

I don't know how familiar anyone is with American weddings, but they are an absolute racket. Everything costs money. Not only does it cost money, it costs 30% more once you mention it is for a wedding. Music costs more, flowers costs more, food costs more, the venue costs more. Having a small wedding with the typical expectations (food, dinner, dancing, drinks, etc.) costs a small fortune. That was not my experience getting married abroad in Ireland!

When I first contacted Hazel, I informed her that me and my wife would be getting married on Inis Mor. She regretfully let me know she only worked in County Dublin and the surrounding area. But she was exactly what we were looking for: A one-woman show learned in our favorite instrument who would be able to play all of our favorite music; I was not about to let her get away that easily.

It took some convincing, but in the end, she was happy to join us.

As I mentioned before, she was enthusiastic to learn new music, and do any number of songs in her repertoire for our ceremony. As long as the song could be played by one person on the violin, she was happy to learn it and perform it.

To say the ceremony went perfectly would be an understatement. You can read my review of Dara Molloy's service on my profile. But Hazel was an instrumental piece of the puzzle, and I cannot imagine what the ceremony would have been without her. From "Concerning Hobbits" to "There Are Many Ways to Say I Love You" to "Never Let Me Go" to "Serenade of Water" to "The Greatest Adventure," and so much more, each step of the ceremony was accompanied by Hazel's beautiful music that added the perfect ambiance to our outdoor, Celtic, nature-based ceremony.

As I said before, Hazel was a joy to work with, and we couldn't have asked for a better musician for our small, intimate ceremony. I'm glad I was persistent and bugged her enough to drag her out to Inis Mor. If I ever needed another violinist for any other similar event, Hazel would be the first person I would call.

Thank you, Hazel, for being such a big part of our ceremony. It would not have been the same without you.

All of our love and thanks,

Kevin + Lauren

Hazel was our violinist for our recent wedding ceremony. We cannot thank her enough. The initial email was friendly and professional and gave us enough information to secure the booking. And then nearer the time, her help with music choices was fantastic, she sent on a full list of music and offered to learn anything we would particularly like, nothing was an issue And then of course on the day itself, absolutely beautiful music. We are so happy with the music, Hazel was fantastic, thank you so much.

Hazel played Violin for our Wedding in Boyne Hill House. A beautiful venue and Hazels music was as amazing as the surroundings. We were absolutely delighted with the professionalism, communication and most importantly the Music she performed. We requested if Hazel could get a piano/keyboard player for us on the day and it was no problem. Darren was also fantastic. Hazel added a real level of finesse and Class to our ceremony and we couldn’t recommend her highly enough.

Hazel is amazingly talented. She played all the songs that my husband & I requested for our wedding and she played them all beautifully. I highly recommend her service & talent! Shes quick to respond and will learn new songs if needed. I really appreciated her effort in learning some of the songs that weren't in her songlist, really really appreciate her & her talent so much!!

Hazel provided fantastic music for our wedding service and reception. She was very responsive during the planning process through email and Zoom calls and was able to easily adapt to what we wanted and run us through everything. We were also provided a broad selection of pieces that made deciding what to go with a breeze.

On the day itself, Hazel made the experience completely stress free and arrived well before the ceremony and was able to set up without any issues. We were very happy with our choices and Hazel performed them beautifully.

At our reception we asked if she could play a mix of pieces that would best suit the atmosphere and she did this perfectly.

Overall we were very happy with having Hazel play at our wedding and would highly recommend her.

What a pleasure it was to have Hazel play at our wedding in June. Hazel was so easy to speak to, she even went as far as to learn a song for us. She made our day very special, she has amazing talent. We can't thank you enough. Thanks very much
Leanne and Shane

On top of this on the day the music was so beautiful and added so much to our day. We would highly recommend Hazel for any event!

Hazel was a joy to work with for our wedding! She happily learned two new songs for our ceremony, which really made the day even more special. Her music was a key part of our wedding's ambiance and I'm so glad we had her be a part of it.

We couldn't recommend Hazel highly enough, she brought so much to the day in terms of personality , ideas and of course beautiful music.

Hazel was absolutely amazing and so professional in helping with our ceremony and making it be extra special. Hazel put alot of time in to help us pick the perfect music and no question was too much. My partner had a very special request and Hazel was so helpful in accommodation with this. Thanks so much

Hazel played absolutely beautifully at our outdoor ceremony in June. The pieces of music we chose were played to perfection, and it made our ceremony so special. I would highly recommend Hazel Alexander, not only is she a very talented musician, but such a lovely person too. Thank you so much Hazel x

Working with Hazel was an absolute dream from start to finish. She was so helpful and professional. Hazel is so talented and we were so thrilled to have her play at our wedding.

Hazel was a pleasure to deal with, so enthuastic about our wedding and full of wonderful suggestions on the music. A true professional who played beautifully. Nothing was a problem for Hazel. we loved the music and felt it really added to the occasion, especially as we had a small wedding and felt we needed something that was not overpowering. Highly recommend.

Hazel was fantastic to say the least. She is so elegant and her talent is extraordinary! The communication was excellent and she gave great examples and helped organise where to put each song for the mass. I requested a song for our entrance to the church and Hazel learned it for us, sent us updates and previews on how it would sound on the day. The music on the day was flawless start to finish!! All of our guests were impressed and commented on how lovely the music was. I would definitely recommend Hazel without hesitation as she goes above and beyond. We got married during Covid and Hazel made the experience that much more bearable!!!

Hazel was absolutely amazing! She really set the mood for our ceremony and put us both at ease when deciding on the set list for the day. She was super friendly and open to learning a new song for the day, playing us out of the chapel to the theme tune to Star Trek Voyager. We would both highly recommend Hazel for your own special day!

Hazel was brilliant from initial contact through to our wedding day, she is lovely to deal with and sent on lots of music suggestions and was also open to learning a new song that we wanted for our ceremony. The sound of the violin is fabulous in a church creating such a lovely ambiance. We also had her play for our drinks reception after which everyone loved. She is brilliant and talented, highly recommend booking her.

Hazel performed at our wedding in February, 2020 and we couldn't rate her highly enough. She was extremely professional and very accommodating to our needs. I wanted a song played as a surprise for my husband as I walked up the aisle. Hazel had no issues in learning it off and was in frequent contact with me to make sure I was happy with all the song choices. She was thorough and organised in planning the day, making sure that every stage of the event was covered.

We had a small wedding and I wanted to be sure the atmosphere was right throughout the wedding and afternoon. Hazel put my mind at ease and was very comfortable taking it the feel of the room and playing music accordingly. Everyone commented on the relaxed and romantic feel of the day. Thank you for making our day so special!

So grateful that we had Hazel perform our wedding ceremony music on 1st Feb 2020 . From first point of contact to seeing her smile as she played us out of the church , everything was perfect . A pleasure to deal with from every email . I had chosen a non traditional bridal entrance song and Hazel had no problem coordinating this on violin specific for the occasion . Many thanks again Hazel & all the best in the future ! X
