She made our wedding day so special! She arrived early to make sure to wish us luck before walking down the aisle. She played beautifully and all of my guests stated how beautiful the harp music was! Highly recommended!!

The Watercress Trio performed beautifully at our Maronite Catholic wedding ceremony. We've received many compliments from our guests about the ceremony. The Watercress Trio were not only flexible in performing traditional hymns but were so patient during some very challenging circumstances in the lead up to the wedding. We are so grateful to Ellen and the team. We would highly recommend them.

We had a blast at our reception. They did a variety of fun music to dance to. Everyone thought our band was the best they'd ever heard at a wedding.

Mike Loonan provided ceremony music for us, as well as background music for cocktail hour and during dinner. He is a great pianist, and added a lot to our special day. Mike was very responsive over e-mail as we discussed the details of our music requests. When we met with him, he asked good questions and made suggestions for music where we were unsure what we wanted. We also wanted a certain pre-recorded version of a song for our recessional, and he was open to queuing that and starting it for us at the right moment. Mike has an extensive repertoire of classical, jazz, and contemporary pieces, and is also a great singer when vocals are appropriate. He provided us with a song list that we returned to him with notes and he was happy to honor our do-not-play list. He really added an element of polished fun to our event.

Stephanie was wonderful, and working with her was so easy! She's an excellent harpist. One of the things I loved about working with her is that she has several recorded albums so that I could listen to the quality of her work before I even contacted her. During our planning process, she invited us for a private mini-concert so we could hear our wedding selections played in person and work out some timing issues etc. She was very flexible with my music selections and ceremony timeline. She was our ONLY music vendor for our wedding - and we could not have been happier with the elegance that she brought to our day

My husband and I recently got married and had Alex & Susan perform at our ceremony. They were WONDERFUL! Alex was our point of contact - responsiveness and flexibility were great! We were able to work through details over email and any that remained the day of, Alex worked with the pastor to ensure their timing and that they were on the same page. This was a huge stress reliever! I would recommend Alex's music services for any services! It was beautiful, perfect, and one less detail to worry about knowing they were so professional!

My husband and I planned our wedding ceremony at virtually the last minute, and I did not know whether I'd be able to find a musician to play live at our small backyard ceremony and cocktail hour on short notice. Nobody I found who was still available could play for a price that was within our budget for our 40-person event. I am so thankful that I came across Pavel and was able to hire him. He got back to me right away to say he was available for the time of our event (he had a schedule conflict later that evening) and he scheduled a time to talk with me over the phone that very night to discuss details. He handled everything so professionally and was easy and pleasant to work with. I selected the processional and recessional music from his list, and he assured me he could fill in the prelude and cocktail hour music based on what I liked, which he did perfectly. My brain was so overloaded with things to do that having Pavel stepping in to take care of music with minimal input from me and my husband was wonderful. He charged far less than I would have assumed it would cost, showed up early to get set up (all he needed was an outlet to plug into) and his professionalism and calm demeanor were a balm after all of the rush and stress of preparing for the wedding. Everyone commented on how they loved the music, and Pavel's playing really was the element that made it all come together. We would hire Pavel again in a heartbeat!

We hired Nate for our wedding, and he was fantastic! He was so easy to work with and played for both our ceremony and reception. He showed up, found his spot, and started playing beautiful music without needing any direction. Highly recommend! Positive feedback from guest!

Ken provided the ceremony music and emcee service for our wedding. He was WONDERFUL. So many guests commented on how nice he was to listen to while they waited for the ceremony to begin. He was also extremely flexible - we had our music planned through the ceremony and recessional, when it started to POUR and the Judge cut the ceremony short. Ken jumped right into the recessional without missing a beat! Our reception stayed on schedule thanks to him - we got the cake cut, had our toast, first dance, etc. because he announced them and we never once had to look at a clock or take our attention away from our guests. I would recommend him over and over again for weddings from the most formal gala event to a casual garden setting.

The Birchwood String Quartet played for our daughter’s wedding – during the ceremony (prelude, processionals, recessional, and postlude), the cocktail hour and the dinner. The quartet was the perfect choice for us. The group is very easy to work with, from the initial engagement through the event. Communications are prompt and clear and very professional. They offer an extensive musical repertoire, from classical to popular – including Taylor Swift for some delighted guests, and a cheerful presence. And, of course, they play beautifully! Doris Y
