“Hey girl!!! It’s been forever,” the former annoy began. “I’m getting married, and I totally want you to play violin for my ceremony in October. It would be the perfect gift, PLUS you could use the photos and videos to build your performance portfolio! Win-win!”
Tiffany Moore, an established violinist with 19 years of expertise in the wedding industry, confronted her childhood nemesis when she demanded that she play at her wedding for free. Tiffany, on the other hand, didn’t require any assistance in developing her portfolio. Her portfolio covers violin, piano, ukulele, guitar, viola, and cello tuition, as well as voice coaching, music theory, and songwriting. She has also been honored multiple times by The Knot, an online wedding vendor marketplace that links couples with local wedding experts.

Persistence and Decline
After the experienced musician declined, the friend told her she wanted to “leave the past behind” and asked for a special discount. Surprisingly, the bride insisted on having Tiffany play the violin while she slow-danced with her partner at her wedding. “So, are you available on October 3rd?” she asked. “It’s a Thursday. I can pay you $1,000, but that’s all I can afford, and for less than an hour of playing, that’s not too shabby! AND you’ll get major exposure because my guest list is 300 people!”
