The Drinks Reception
Unusually, as you can probably deduce from the above, today’s wedding started with an afternoon reception with food and drink for the guests before the ceremony which took place in the garden. We therefore initially setup in the house to provide music for an hour or so whilst Ben and Sheena had photographs taken and their 30 or so guests enjoyed the lovely food and drink which was being supplied.
Before the ceremony and with help from a couple of groomsmen, we seamlessly relocated outside into the garden to provide music for the ceremony which was a lovely pastor lead service in the centre of the gardens with the castle as a backdrop.
