Real stories from those who trusted Velvet Events to craft the perfect soundtrack for their most unforgettable moments.
Our Philosophy
At Velvet Events, we are more than a music agency—we are curators of extraordinary experiences. Every note played, every arrangement chosen, and every moment crafted is done with the utmost care, precision, and passion. At the heart of it all is Marcel Krasner: a cellist, artist, and visionary dedicated to making your wedding day truly unforgettable.
Meet Marcel
Founder & Cellist
For me, music is more than a profession—it’s a way of life. Growing up in New York, I was surrounded by the beauty of art and the vibrancy of culture, learning early on the value of craftsmanship and excellence. As a student of The Juilliard School, I cultivated the resilience and discipline essential to thriving in the arts, shaping my approach to every performance and project I undertake.
In 2014, I founded Velveteen Ensemble, a boutique string group born from a desire to elevate live music to new heights. Over time, that vision evolved into Velvet Events—a bespoke music agency where artistry meets precision.
