Hi, I'm Christie.

When I was just 5 years old, I saw a violinist on a VHS tape (wow) and I immediately said "I want to play that". What can I say? When you know, you know.

​

I have spent the last 27 years mastering my craft, completing my Bachelor's in Violin Performance from Central Washington University in 2011. When I was first introduced to event music, I was handed a folder by an event coordinator saying "this is the music we play for weddings, this is the music we play for cocktails..." Wait, what? No client of mine wants one-size-fits-all music. No client of mine is one-size-fits-all!

 

In 2018 I launched Christie Becker Violin, LLC with this purpose: tailoring event music especially for you, creating a cohesive, immersive and elevated celebration! Since then, I've created hundreds of customized setlists for my clients' special moments. I've had the privilege of working on events for companies including Microsoft, Dom Perignon, and Marriott Bonvoy, and have been recognized for excellence in quality, service, and professionalism by The Knot Worldwide. I've received "The Best of the Bash" award for the past three years running, and am proud to be selected for The Knot Best of Weddings 2022. While I'm incredibly grateful to be recognized for my hard work with these awards, I have found that the most fulfilling part of my work is collaborating with creative couples and bringing their love stories to life.

​

You don't cut corners - and neither do I. Specializing in bespoke setlists and arrangements, I take the time to understand your vision, tell your story, and create performances of the highest quality. I'm your personal cheerleader and magician, understanding how important responsiveness and flexibility are when planning a multi-faceted event. I plan for the unexpected, and genuinely share in your excitement! My years of experience and expertise are at your service - I love creating custom performances that amaze and impress your guests.
