• The performance of Melody and her musicians at our daughter's wedding was pure joy. During the ceremony, she performed solo on the harp, added vocals to the Ave Maria and The Lord's Prayer, and played with the organ for the processional, recessional, and postlude. During the reception, she performed with violin and cello. The cellist, Jonathan, produced a lovely sound on the cello. The violinist, Zoriy, treated our guests to the wonderful sounds of his strolling violin as well as his stationary performance within the trio. Our guests sang their praises all evening. We were most pleased with their talent, performance and cooperation. I recommend them highly. Pat -- Patricia C, Celebration, FL, 12/3/2011

• Having Weddings & Concerts of Florida, Harpist Melody (Apex String Trio) was an absolute best decision I made for our daughter's wedding. They arrange for the trio 2 special song requested by the bride with only a very short notice and the wedding party floated in and out to the upbeat songs. The bride was able to walk the long outside sidewalk WITHOUT worrying if the beat of the music would be at the right pace. Because of there professionalism we had a memorable day. Thank you so much!!! Susan (mother of the bride) -- Susan C, Ormond Beach, FL, 7/17/2011

Her music during my wedding ceremony was so romantic, it really set the tone that love was in the air! My husband and I couldn't be happier that we chose her to perform at our wedding! An added perk she is a very beautiful lady! A+++ -- Gina Marie O, Saint Petersburg, FL, 2/12/2011
• Melody's trio (harp, violin, & chello) did an absolutely amazing job. She is a true pleasure to work with and her extensive experience playing in weddings made our ceremony planning process easier to manage. She was diligent on her follow-up and quick to respond back to emails and/or voicemails. We appreciated her recommendations and her willingness to customize her services to meet our needs. Their music made our ceremony more than I ever dream it could be. We received countless compliments - the music and solos was exactly what I was hoping for - dream-like, full of emotion. Truly amazing! We highly recommend Melody. -- Angela G, Jacksonville, FL, 7/17/2010
• Melody was a tremendous pleasure to work with! Within the first two e-mails, she completely understood exactly what my husband and I were looking for. She played her beautiful music for our beach wedding and cocktail hour, and everyone raved at how beautiful and soothing it was. She was professional, yet very personable, as well as being very accommodating. We highly recommend her for any event, not just weddings! --- James & Takara. 10/17/10 -- Takara K, Vero Beach, FL, 10/17/2010
• We cannot begin to describe how pleased we were with the performance of Melody and her trio. From day 1 she was the consummate professional, offering us tips and opinions on how to best fit her into our wedding plans, and coordinate with the other entertainment we had scheduled for that day. She even came to our aid when Penny began to feel ill from all of the pressure and activity following the ceremony. Melody is a God send. We would strongly recommend her to anyone wanting a top rate performer and professional for their event. Thank you Melody!! -- Penelope S, Fort Myers, FL, 11/28/2009
• My guests were very appreciative of both talent and the willingness to take special requests. I have recommended Melody to others all ready and would surely use her again when my next party is scheduled. Rich Rollins -- Rich R, Jacksonville, FL, 12/20/2007
• absolutely incredible............beyond our imagination,......Perfect -- Robert W, Mount Dora, FL, 11/24/2007
• Melody was very kind and sweet, and she was very nice to work with. She was very professional, even with how she sent out little packets of information with cds of the songs she could play. The day of the wedding she was on time, and while others stayed in the shade to avoid the sun, she stayed near the isle and played. The music was beautiful, and I was so glad that I had chosen her instead of resorting to using a tape player or something of the sort. Over all, I would recommend Melody to anyone. She's extremely tallented, so sweet, and she does a wonderful job!. It was great to get to work with her. :) -- Carrie H, Birmingham, AL, 6/9/2007
• We had a corporate event last night and booked strolling violinist Zoriy Zinger. I am still getting calls asking where I found him. The music was delightful and his personality was charming, professional and yet sometimes whimsical which brought a personal element to our event. Melody at MBM talents was also a pleasure to deal with, she was prompt, courteous with great follow through! Thank you for a wonderful event. -- Nancy D, Atlanta, GA, 12/12/2006
