Inglewood House in Alloa, Scotland, is a venue that perfectly blends Edwardian charm with breathtaking surroundings. Nestled in picturesque grounds, it offers the ideal backdrop for weddings both grand and intimate. For Wednesday and William’s special day, this stunning setting, combined with a small gathering of just 16 guests, created a wonderfully personal and romantic atmosphere.
JAM Duo were delighted to provide live cello and piano music for their ceremony, drinks reception, and wedding meal, helping to bring their vision of a relaxed and elegant wedding day to life.
A Romantic Ceremony Filled with Pastel Elegance
The wedding décor was a soft and romantic palette of pastel blue, pastel pink, ivory, pastel green, and pastel purple, with William looking dashing in a distinctive green suit that perfectly tied the colour scheme together.
As guests gathered for the ceremony, JAM Duo performed a selection of pre-ceremony music to set a beautiful and welcoming tone:
- Yellow – Coldplay
- Feel the Love – Rudimental
- Marry You – Bruno Mars
- Perfect – Ed Sheeran
- Bridgerton Theme
The atmosphere was intimate and heartfelt, perfectly suited to the small gathering of their closest family and friends.
For Wednesday’s bridal entrance, we performed a unique and memorable blend:
- Canon in D (Pachelbel) seamlessly transitioning into Test Drive (How to Train Your Dragon)
This beautiful and cinematic arrangement added an emotional and personal touch to their entrance.
During the signing of the register, we performed:
- Better Together – Jack Johnson
- Can You Feel the Love Tonight – Elton John
These songs brought warmth and romance to the moment before Wednesday and William exited the ceremony to:
- All About You – McFly – an upbeat and joyful start to their celebration as newlyweds.
Outdoor Drinks Reception on the Terrace
After the ceremony, we relocated to the terrace at Inglewood House for the drinks reception, where we continued to provide live music in the fresh Scottish air. Our battery-powered setup allowed us to perform outside effortlessly, creating a seamless musical experience without any need for mains electricity.
We performed a wide-ranging set of contemporary covers, including:
- Beneath Your Beautiful – Labrinth
- Halo – Beyoncé
- The Joker and the Queen – Ed Sheeran
- Just the Way You Are – Bruno Mars
- Africa – Toto
- Can’t Help Falling in Love – Elvis (JAM Duo arrangement)
- A Sky Full of Stars – Coldplay
- Stand By Me – Ben E. King
- Wonderwall – Oasis
- Dream a Little Dream of Me – Louis Armstrong
- …and many more romantic favourites.
The music created a relaxed, uplifting atmosphere that perfectly complemented the drinks reception and the stunning surroundings.
Moving Indoors for the Wedding Meal
Once the drinks reception concluded, we relocated inside for the wedding meal. This allowed us to continue playing as Wednesday, William, and their guests enjoyed a beautifully intimate dining experience.
It was a privilege to provide a live soundtrack throughout the day, making every moment special and memorable for this wonderful couple and their closest loved ones.
A Personal Thank You
This wedding was truly unique – not only because of its intimate size but because of the warmth and kindness that radiated from Wednesday and William. They even provided us with a meal and snacks during the day, a thoughtful gesture that made us feel incredibly welcome.
To Wednesday and William: thank you for choosing JAM Duo to be part of your wedding. We wish you every happiness as you begin your new life together.
