My path
Pianist & Event Planner, with a passion for foreign languages and cultures, for travel and for the details that make the difference, with a piano degree and a technical operator diploma for tourism.
I have twenty years of experience in the music industry as a musician, artistic director and organizer of public and private events.
My roots
I grew up in a family of craftsmen, mother seamstress and father upholsterer.
When I was little I enjoyed playing in their equipped workshops, among sewing machines, colored fabrics, precious materials and unique projects created with their skilled hands.
The passion for their work has been a continuous inspiration for me.
My goals
From this experience I learned that every detail is part of the realization of a dream.
Customizing the proposals and packaging quality projects for the customer’s happiness is my mission!
Precisely for this reason I consider myself a true artisan of music!
My philosophy
With a positive and sunny predisposition, I evaluate and plan each event based on the client’s tastes, needs, location and target audience, to create the perfect event for every occasion.
I always remain, for the whole service, the only reference! The goal is to create something unique, always different but winning entertainment.

WOW is all I can say! I booked the Lux Music for my wedding in October 2021 and myself and all my guests were totally blown away! If you're getting married in Tuscany, or anywhere in Italy that Lux Music travels to, you will not be disappointed! I booked the violin + guitar for ceremony, and then guitar duo for apertif and just WOW -- the two men who performed were incredible! You could tell they were total pros at weddings, they had all the right songs and playlists, it was just perfect. I gave very little direction and just let them have fun with it and I am so glad I did! I also had Lux Music provide a DJ for me for the reception part of the wedding and again, just awesome! Working with Lavinia was also wonderful, she was responsive, organized, and she was also there the entire event to make sure everything ran smoothly. If you're trying to decide on who to book for your entertainment for your wedding, you have found them!!!! Thank you team!!!

Lavinia and Lux Music really made our wedding a dream. The music was excellent, and we are so happy we chose them to play in the ceremony. We planned our wedding in Italy from Norway, and Lavinia made it so easy - no need for a wedding planner with vendors like this!

I contracted a string trio through Lux Music for my church ceremony in Florence and they were amazing!! Lavinia is wonderful, she is very helpful and prompt to respond to emails. She was able to make the whole process very easy for me, as I contracted the music from abroad. Everything turned out great on the day of the event; I couldn't be happier!! I highly recommend this company.

Exceptional Service
We hired 2 musicians through Lux Music and both were just a wonderful addition to our wedding day. Punctual, talented and just did all that they could to make their service special. Our guests raved about both musicians. We hired a guitar/violin duo for cocktail hour and they were so engaging, they even walked our guests over to the dinner table which we thought was such a wonderful touch. At dinner, we had a jazz pianist who was just lovely and patient when we got our schedule timing wrong and interrupted his set with our wedding dance! They both created such a beautiful atmosphere with their music and we were so happy with their service. Lavinia was there to oversee the whole process and she was so easy and lovely to work with. Highly recommend! Thank you all for everything you did on our wedding day!

Best part of our wedding
The violin + guitar duo we chose from Lux Music for our cocktail hour was the best part of our wedding - for us and for our guests. They were recommended by our venue, Castello del Trebbio, and they did not disappoint! They played with so much cheer and passion and transported all of our guests into the heart of Tuscany through lively Italian music. They also played some of our personal favorites we asked for, like Disney songs and Metallica, and their renditions were so fun! They have a large repertoire and just enhance the entire wedding experience. They even stayed longer than we expected so we got to savor the experience even more. Our guests could not stop raving about how much they enjoyed their live music. We also had them play during our ceremony + a pianist from Lux Music and they made the ceremony more beautiful and emotional.

Thank you so much for being part of our special day, we loved every minute of it! Every aspect of the music was perfect - the dance floor was constantly full with people dancing. I’d highly recommend you, you’ve been great to work with.

Here is a list of our vendors each of which I would highly recommend: Lavinia (Pianist-Lux Music) was so sweet to work with and prepared custom songs for me and my husband to walk down the aisle with.
