For the ceremony we were in the summer house at Hooton Pagnell Hall which is a delightful intimate ceremony space in the gardens. We always love a blend of two or more songs and it was a great choice by Kenzie to have Chasing Cars blended with Hero.
Drinks Reception and Meal
After the ceremony we relocated with our instruments into a shady area in the garden. It is always a challenge for us on hot sunny days. We do have a canopy which can be utilised in extreme conditions but we try not to as it’s not always ideal to errect at peoples weddings! So today we found the shade of some trees in the garden from where we could entertain the guests whilst they enjoyed champagne.
For the meal we relocated back inside to the main barn where Kenzie and Ryan made their grand entrance to the meal with our arrangement of Mr Brightside.
For the rest of the time we were given free choice of music to play so we put together a playlist mixing contemporary covers with some piano jazz to suit the ambience of the occasion.
We really enjoyed being a part of Kenzie and Ryan’s wedding at Hooton Pagnell Hall in Doncaster and we wish them all the very best for their married future together.
