    Beautiful String Trio!

    The Watercress Trio was great to work with. They were quick to respond, and flexible/accommodating as we made our timeline. They were very open to learning a new song for my ceremony and sounded beautiful with every song they played! Would highly recommend!

    The Watercress Trio elevated our wedding ceremony

    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.

    Would hire again and again and again!

    From the get-go Ellen made everything so easy. She was so professional and very responsive in her communication. Their music catalog is huge and they still learned a special song that was a surprise for my husband. All the guests were raving about how beautiful the live music was and having them play at our cocktail hour really elevated the classy mood we were looking to set. I highly recommend the Watercress String Trio! (My little cousin is even using them for her wedding after hearing them at mine!)

    Musical magic!

    Ellen was a dream to coordinate with. She was game for my music suggestions but honestly hers were better!!

    The music the quartet provided at my wedding make my Bridgerton fantasy a reality!

    11/10, no notes, except the music ones, of course!

    They knocked it out of the park! The Watercress String Trio was an absolute delight to work with. Their catalogue is SO big! They were also so attentive to the details of our wedding ceremony, and how we wanted each piece to play out. You gotta hire this trio if you want the magic of live music in your event.

    This group is so wonderful

    They were so responsive and helpful with questions, and a true delight to work with. They approach their work so intentionally, too. I’m eager to find another opportunity to work with them!

    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.

    Watercress Strings's reply:

    Thanks so much, Megan! We had a blast playing your wedding--it was such a beautiful day! All the best to you and J.

    Beautiful Orchestral Music

    The Watercress Trio did such a beautiful job at my wedding. They are talented musicians and have a streamlined process to help pick music and coordinate details for the event. I would highly recommend them to anyone.
