Christmas is (was!) coming…..

We’ve noticed an increasing number of winter wedding bookings over the last few years and 2010/2011 was no different. There’s something so cosy and appealing about crackling open fires, mulled wine…..not to mention all that snow!

We battled valiantly through unprecedented weather and traffic conditions to a few of our winter bookings this year, and although we twice appeared as a Trio rather than a Quartet, we did our very best to try and fulfill every booking. So here’s some belated congratulations to our winter-wedding couples:

18th December – Carly and Lee held their wedding at the Cheltenham Park Hotel, where we entertained guests with classical and Christmassy music for the ceremony and drinks. The drive home afterwards through the icy streets of Cheltenham was definitely NOT as much fun!

19th December – Rebecca and John had chosen the beautiful setting of Coombe Lodge for their wedding, and we performed for the ceremony and drinks reception.

22nd December – the first time we’ve performed as a Duo. Susie and Chris held their intimate wedding at Homewood Park in Bath. They absolutely loved our pop song arrangements – must be because the groom used to be a music journalist!

29th December – Congratulations to Victoria and Christopher. We played classical music requests for their drinks reception at Bradley House near Warminster.

30th December – we returned to one of our favourite haunts for the drinks reception of Adam and Alex at Orchardleigh House. We gave guests our first performance of Mr Blue Sky, Sweet Child of Mine and Your Song, as the groom had asked for lots of up-beat modern music.
