Today we made our way down the M5 to Clevedon for Joe and Chloe’s wedding. Nestled amidst the serene beauty of Somerset, Clevedon Hall stands as a timeless testament to grandeur and sophistication. This magnificent country estate, with its rich history and stunning architecture, offers a haven of luxury and tranquility for those seeking an unforgettable experience. From weddings and private events to corporate retreats, Clevedon Hall provides an idyllic setting that combines timeless charm with modern amenities.
The Wedding
Setting up in the great hall, we were positioned at the front of the ceremony room for Chloe and Joe’s wedding ceremony. This afforded us a great view as first the groom and then the bride made their entrances down the very grand staircase.
For the bridal entrance, this was once again a blend of two songs. As the bridesmaids entered we played our arrangement of Can’t Help Falling in Love and then as Chloe appeared, looking stunning in her beautiful dress, this transitioned seamlessly into Canon in D for her grand entrance.
During the signing portion of Chloe and Joseph’s wedding at Clevedon Hall in Somerset, JAM Duo continued to captivate guests with their enchanting music. As the couple and their witnesses signed the marriage documents, the soothing melodies of “Strangers in the Night” filled the air. This classic Frank Sinatra tune, elegantly performed on the cello and piano, added a touch of romance and nostalgia to the moment, further emphasizing the significance of the occasion.
Following “Strangers in the Night,” the JAM Duo seamlessly transitioned into another beloved piece, “Tale as Old as Time” from Disney’s timeless classic, Beauty and the Beast. The gentle notes of the cello and piano echoed through the room, evoking a sense of wonder and enchantment. This iconic song, known for its heartfelt lyrics and beautiful melody, served as a symbolic representation of the couple’s own unique love story, adding an extra layer of meaning to the signing ceremony.
The Drinks Reception
During Chloe and Joe’s drinks reception at the beautiful Clevedon Hall in Somerset, JAM Duo set up outside, serenading the guests with their enchanting melodies. Set against the backdrop of the venue’s stunning grounds, JAM Duo created a captivating atmosphere, setting the tone for an unforgettable celebration.
Chloe and Joe, along with their guests, were treated to a truly memorable drinks reception, where the melodies of the JAM Duo, combined with the elegance of the glossy black piano shell, created an atmosphere of joy, relaxation, and refined celebration. The enchanting sounds of the cello and piano, floating through the air, added an extra touch of magic to this special day at Clevedon Hall in Somerset.
