Caroline & Mark’s Wedding

We were back on the road again last night for our last wedding before Christmas – thanks to Caroline and Mark for inviting us along to play a few tunes at their wedding reception.  They’ve a great honeymoon planned, including a trip to Canada: and that’s what inspired this blog title!  We’re not sure if they’re going to the French speaking parts, but Tout Juste Marié means Getting Married in French…

Shauna & Robert’s Wedding

We spent our Friday night in Ballymena at Shauna and Robert’s wedding reception.  It was actually Robert who inspired this blog title!  We were chatting to him again during the buffet, and asked was everything ok for him?  He replied “Yeah, everything is great.  Do you know Larry?”  Of course we didn’t know Larry, and were caught hook, line and sinker! lol  We replied “No, we don’t know Larry”, to which Robert replied “Well, I’m as happy as Larry!” lol  We thought it was really funny, and it also gave us an excuse to use a funny dog pic for our header…

Bernie & Stephen’s Wedding

Bernie and Stephen’s choice of first dance last night inspired this blog title. They picked The Cure’s Friday I’m In Love, but what made it stick in our minds was that they picked Janet Devlin’s beautiful cover of it!  It’s the first time we’ve heard her interpretation, and it’s such a brilliant version – well worth checking out if you haven’t heard it…

Alysha & Scott’s Wedding

Scott inspired this blog title, as we were chatting to him before we started, and he had a glass of whiskey in his hand!  He was telling us that he used to work in Scotland for a wholesaler that sold Whiskey, hence our Scottish inspired title!  By sounds of it he was spoilt for choice of which wee dram to drink over there…

Melissa & Jonny’s Wedding

Jonny is the inspiration for this blog title and pic!  We were chatting to him after we arrived, and he was telling us about how his mates set him up after the speeches!  They were just about to about to wrap up, and a policeman walked in to make an announcement.  He proceeded to say that a delivery lorry had damaged two cars, and read out their model and registrations: one of them being Jonny’s prized Audi!  He obviously wasn’t in on the joke and panicked as soon as he heard this, much to the amusement of all the guests! lol  He took it in good sport though, so all was good…

Taylor & Cameron’s Wedding

We were back on the road again last night, and the weather was great!  We’re not complaining, as it’s great to be able to wear shorts when we’re setting up, but we were roasted! Taylor and Cameron had invited us along to the Rosspark in Kells to play at their wedding, and the place was looking great as always.  We were really relieved that the venue had the air con turned well up, as we weren’t long cooling down once all the gear was loaded in…

Laura & Liam’s Wedding

Saturday night, and we were joined on stage by one of Laura and Liam’s guests.  Sean had come over all the way from Australia, and wanted to sing Macy Gray’s I Try.  He didn’t need to try too hard, as he did a great job, and had the crowd in the palm of his hand! Cheers Sean, that sorted our blog title for us…

We finished our week in the brilliant Rosspark Hotel in Kells at Emma and Jonny’s wedding.  Thanks to both of them for inviting us along! :) It’s about two and a half years since we last were there: it looks better than ever, as the function room has had a makeover!  Angus and the rest of the staff had the place dressed perfectly, and weren’t long making space for us to setup once the meal was finished…

Brooke & Ross’ Wedding

Third wedding of five done last night, so we’d like to thank Brooke and Ross for inviting us to play at their wedding in the Leighinmohr House Hotel.  The hotel was looking great as usual, and running bang on time: as they were clearing the stage when we arrived.  Brooke and Ross also had hired a MASSIVE LED dance floor, and the guys were setting it at the same time as us.  It looked great, and is definitely one of the best ones that we’ve seen yet…

Jen & Peter’s Wedding

We finished our week in the Leighinmohr House Hotel in Ballymena on Saturday night.  It was Jen and Peter’s big day, so thanks to both of them for inviting us along to play at their wedding reception.  The Leighinmohr has a MASSIVE function room, and we’ve rarely played to a crowd that filled it.  However, Saturday was different, as the place was stuffed!  It definitely is a great room for a large crowd, so maybe worth checking out if you’re planning a wedding with big numbers…

After a couple of days to recover from the weekend’s travelling, we were back at it again last night.  We headed up the road to the wonderful Galgorm Resort and Spa – thanks to Rebecca and David for inviting us along to play a few tunes at their wedding reception.  Yet another day of amazing weather, and the view from the panoramic windows at the back of the Renaissance Suite were just stunning!  Of course the view inside the room was fantastic too, as the room was dressed to perfection, and looked amazing…
