After the ceremony and with help from the venue staff, we swiftly relocated to the patio area outside the main house to continue entertaining during the drinks reception.
Here we received a number of requests from the guests and it was our pleasure to play the music they asked for. At today’s wedding music from the 1950s and 1960s was very much the vibe and the choice of the guests!
It was our real pleasure to be a part of Molly and James’ wedding at Hooton Pagnell Hall and we really enjoyed providing daytime wedding music for them. We wish them both all the best as they embark on their married life together.
