"We were fortunate to have The Silverwood Trio perform in our daughter's wedding.  They certainly set the mood with elegance and we received so many compliments!  As a fellow musician, I can certainly attest to the fact that these women are extremely talented, well-schooled, and add 'class' to any occasion."
