Exceptional

We were thrilled to be able to have the ensemble provide the music for our wedding ceremony. Ellen helped us select songs that perfectly fit our vibe, and numerous guests came up to us later to say how much they loved the music.

Beautiful music with clear communication

Watercress String trio played for our son’s wedding and created a beautiful atmosphere throughout the event. They were punctual, professional and in every way a pleasure to work with. Ellen was very quick to respond to our inquiries and provided clear communication. This trio made a special day even more magical.
