Anna & Paddy’s Wedding

Back on the road last night for the first time in nearly five weeks!  That’s longest that we’ve ever went without playing since we started the band!  One of Anna and Paddy’s wedding guests inspired this blog title, as he asked us to play Rick Astley’s Never Gonna Give You Up!  We’re not sure if we’ve ever played it in the disco before, and if we have it’s been a long time!  So, as it was a bit unusual for us, we thought that would sort the blog title! (apologies for the crap header pic, we couldn’t find anything else!…

Colleen & Johnny’s Wedding

We had our third and final wedding of the week on Saturday night, thanks to Colleen and Johnny for inviting us along.  Their choice of first dance inspired this blog title.  They had chosen Rascal Flatt’s brilliant ‘Bless the Broken Road’, so we thought we’d go a wee bit more predictable than normal with the blog title…

Tracey & Darrell’s Wedding

As most people know, last week was a massive sporting week for Ireland, with The Open being held in Portrush!  We heard there were tens of thousands of tourists coming for the event, but didn’t expect to see any staying as far away as Letterkenny!  We met a bus in the hotel car park, so that was our blog title inspiration sorted…

Janet & Chris’ Wedding

We made our debut last night in the Lake House Country Hotel in Portnoo, which is on the beautiful Donegal coast.  It was Janet and Chris’ wedding, so thanks to both of them for inviting us along to entertain their guests.  They couldn’t have picked a nicer area, as the scenery is just stunning.  Indeed, Janet said that the nearby town of Ardara is her favourite place in the world! :)  She’s lives in Glasgow now (as that’s where Chris is from), so it was nice for them to come back here to get married…

Louise & Gerard’s Wedding

We were back in the stunning An Grianan Hotel in Burt (County Donegal) on Saturday night. It was Louise and Gerard’s big day – thanks to both of them for inviting us along to play a few tunes at their wedding reception. We always say it, but An Grianan is one of our favourite wedding venues, and definitely our favourite Donegal venue – hands down! The circular function room is just stunning, plus it keeps the crowd together well and has great acoustics – what’s not to like? Well worth checking out if you’re looking for a reception venue in the Derry or Donegal area…

Michelle & John’s Wedding

We started our week in the Mount Errigal Hotel in Letterkenny at Michelle and John’s wedding last night.  We were chatting in the van on the way up, and couldn’t figure out when we last played in the Mount Errigal, and couldn’t remember – it’s definitely been a long time though!  Regardless, the staff had the room looking great, plus Michelle and John had ordered an LED dance floor, which added a nice extra touch…

We were back in the beautiful Downings last night, at Christine and Paul’s wedding reception.  Thanks to both of them for inviting us along, and also for introducing us to a new venue – the Downings Bay Hotel! We’d only ever played in the Rosapenna Hotel before, and actually arrived there thinking that’s were we were playing! lol  Thankfully the Downings Bay is only a few hundred yards up the road, so it take us along to get to the right venue…

Naomh & Willy’s Wedding

We were back in the stunning Lough Eske Castle in Donegal last night at Naomh and Willy’s wedding.  It’s a beautiful venue, and it’s always a pleasure to play there, so thanks to Naomh and Willy for inviting us along! The castle is stunning inside and out, so the wet weather didn’t matter so much, as the room was looking great, and the panoramic views of the grounds fantastic!  Plus, Greg and the rest of the staff had everything running bang on time, so we were able to setup very shortly after we arrived…
