Testimonials MARVELOUS!!! Hiring "POLISHED" for my daughters wedding was by far the best choice I made in all the planning. Joanna and Anna are beautiful, professional, classy, elegant and most importantly very talented! Our guests have

It really set our reception apart from anything else I've been to.The ladies were kind and gracious and were truly professional.Their video pieces on this site is nice, but to see them in person is really beyond words! They set the tone for the whole evening!

If you like fine music and have a need for a piano/violin duo, then you should definitely take a look at this duo. We flew them in to play for us yesterday and they were magnificent! As an academic institution we had them play almost exclusively classical music, but they can play anything -- their song list is enormous. They are very serious about their music and it shows. When they came into town, it was all about preparing to be at their very best for their audience. People adored them -- some even shed a few tears during their concert. I highly recommend Anna and Joanna - "POLISHED" - for your next event.

We were thrilled with our choice to hire "POLISHED", to perform at our event at the zoo. The girls were incredibly professional and talented and our guests had many wonderful compliments on the entertainment. It began to rain halfway through our outdoor event and the girls were quick to accomodate and set up under a tent to continue playing through the rain. Their presence added positively to the event as a whole. We will strongly consider using them again for this kind of event!

"POLISHED" was the perfect addition to my wedding ceremony. They were professional throughout my entire experience with them. They were very easy to work with and very accommodating. I was a music major in college, and had several musical selections that were not part of Joanna and Anna's normal repertoire that they learned just for our wedding ceremony. They arrived to the church early, and played more than requested when the ceremony started a couple minutes late. I would highly recommend "POLISHED" not only for their exceptional talent, but also for their consistent professionalism and eagerness to make our wedding day perfect. Thanks so much!

"POLISHED" was outstanding in every way - they are very talented musicians and they provided the kind of sophisticated sound (and look!) that made our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour really outstanding. Besides being so talented and wonderful, they were exceptional professionals to work with. They are so experienced in being a part of these types ofevents that they make their part of the day smooth sailing- for us on our big day, they were a dream come true!

Joanna and Anna were a pleasure to work with. Their performance was beautiful and was the perfect touch to our wedding ceremony. I would highly recommend them to anyone who is looking for professional and talented musicians.
-Annette V, Wedding, Alsip, IL 

Joanna and Anna were fantastic to work with and were perfect for our wedding. We added a singer at the last minute and they accommodated the change easily and came to the wedding early to set-up and practice. They are extremely talented and our guests commented positively on their music and friendly personalities. I would highly recommend them for any musical need you would have. Thank you, Joanna and Anna.  
-Bobby C, Wedding, Dyer, IN

What an incredible addition to this auspicious occasion. The gals of "POLISHED" are wonderfully talented, elegant, and full of class. Offering a lengthy repertoire of material, not a single person at our reception was dissatisfied. We could not have hoped for a better outcome in our music selection, and will recommend "POLISHED" for any event under the sun! Thank you ladies, you were superb.
-Stacey U, Anniversary, Chicago, IL

Joanna and Anna were just great! All our guests enjoyed their music so much! They arrived ahead of time to properly set up and warm up with the piano and violin. A few of my guests requested information about "POLISHED". They are the best, and I would definitely book them again in the future for other events. They truly made our wedding day extra special!
-Audrey S, Wedding, Elgin, IL

I definitely would recommend "POLISHED" to anyone in need of a duo. They have great range and can play anything you would want. They are very professional in their look and sound. Thank you for making my wedding memorable!

It was a pleasure to work with Joanna and Anna. They were professional in every aspect. They played at my daughter's wedding and made all the music selections. Everything wasperfect. We received so many compliments...I would not hesitate to recommend these two musicians for any function.
-Genya I, Wedding, Sheboygan, WI

Joanna and Anna exceeded my expectations in every way. We had them perform for our wedding ceremony and the cocktail hour. They arrived well before the ceremony time, and were flexible when the pastor let them know about a few song changes. Our venue did not have a real piano for the girls to use, but "POLISHED" brought a wonderful portable piano withthem that truly sounded like the real thing (I should know--I play piano myself). I am so happy and blessed that we were able to have "POLISHED" play at our wedding! Guests complimented us all night on how wonderful they performed!
-Christa Slimmer, Wedding, Wheaton, IL

The ladies were a real treat. They were timely, professional and talented. I would recommend them to anyone.

Excellent! Guests are still talking about "POLISHED". They were exceptional and added the elegance and class we were looking for on our special day.
-Demetria P. Wedding, East Peoria, IL 

"POLISHED" performed  above and beyond my expectations. Was able to accomadate my needs for this event to a "T". Very greatly appreciated, making it a memorable event that wewill never forget. Thank you!
-Sgt. Kirkish, Anthony, D. USMC - Marriage Proposal, Schaumberg, IL

They were the best. People are still talking about their performance. I highly recommend them for anyones wedding. If you want a classic wedding that is different from the usual DJ, they are the answer. They showed up with plenty of time to set up and the music was seamless. They are the most professional musicians that we have ever dealt with. Again my hat is off to the girls and the great memories that they helped provide.
-David E,  Wedding, Naperville, IL

"POLISHED" set the tone for my wedding. They are what would be called a "class act". Not only are they lovely people, but they are professional, organized and talented. The wedding party arrived from hours of photos just in time for the ceremony. "POLISHED" had set themselves up in two areas, entertaining the guests and continued to do so for the cocktail hour. As far as the actual music was concerned, we picked only one song to accompany the bride down the isle. I left the entire ceremony and cocktail hour up to them. As I said, they are professional and I felt they had good judgement. The result exceeded my expectations. We had so many people comment on Joanna and Anna and their music. They are beautifulyoung women who added a special touch to my daughter's wedding. I can't thank them enough.
-Jane T, Wedding, Glen Ellyn, IL

The Ladies, Joanna and Anna, were absolutely outstanding!! When we began our search for musicians, we were a little skeptical as to whether or not we would find the perfect one. We had it in our minds to go with a harpist for our event, but when we came upon "POLISHED"-a classy act, we were BLOWN AWAY, by the talent that was sampled on the website. Our wedding was planned within a 6 week time period, and the ladies were so pleasant, professional,and accommodatiing to work with. In fact, their performanance was one of the major things that my husband and I were really looking forward to. WE WERE NOT DISAPPOINTED. In fact, we were even more pleased by them than we had ever anticipated. Everyone was so impressed by these young, beautiful, TALENTED ladies. The fact that they were so gracious, professional, and friendly rounded out the package perfectly. In our guest list, there were some physicians who head their alumni association. They were asking about the musicians and commented on how they would definitely keep them in mind for any future medical school ball events. Also on the guest list was the Family Readiness Group leader and new Company Commander for my husbands Army Reserve Unit..they too said that they would keep the ladies in mind when they plan the military balls in the future. Needless to say, these ladies are artists of superior talent and character. It was an absolute dream to work withthem and to experience their music. Without them, our wedding would not have been as perfect as we had dreamed. We will definitely recommend "POLISHED" - a classy act, to anyone who wants to have the very best for their event or occasion!!
-Melanie R, Anniversary, Sycamore, IL

Great enthusiasm, professional, timely and beautiful music played for our first class event. I would use "POLISHED" – a classy act” again.
-Steve C, Corporate Function, Naperville, IL

The girls were very friendly and helpful when I was planning for my wedding ceremony. I contacted them 1 week prior to the event, and they did beautifully.
-April B, Wedding, Chicago, IL

Thank you again for the wonderful ceremony music you provided for our wedding. Our guests truly enjoyed your performance. It was nice to have real musicians playing in an outdoorsetting and the music was exactly what we wanted! It was a truly enjoyable experience!
Love,
-Jen and Dave, Wedding, Volo, IL

What a difference talented musicians can make during cocktails and dinner at a wedding reception or special event! I met Anna & Joanna at a function about ten months ago where they were hired to provide the music and I was hired to photograph the event. I have been photographing weddings and special events for the last twenty five years and have heard my share of wonderful and not so wonderful musicians. Just recently, my wife and I were in that chaotic and stressful and "supposed to be happy" time of our lives helping our daughter plan her wedding day. Music is such an important part of any special event, especially a wedding. It sets the tone of the entire experience. After hearing Anna and Joanna that evening at the party we were both working, I knew they would be perfect for our daughter Elizabeth''s wedding. And they were! Very Talented. Very Professional. Piano and violin is the perfectcombination to allow your guests the ability to visit and talk at a normal noise level. My wife, Kim and I had many friends and family members comment on the classiness of the reception-thanks to Anna & Joanna, We need to plan another party, just so we can hire them again!
