Stella & Kevin’s Wedding
We were back up in County Donegal again on Saturday night, not on the coast this time though, as we were in Donegal town. Thanks to Stella and Kevin for inviting us along to play a few tunes at their reception in the fantastic Mill Park Hotel. They had a capacity crowd for the room, and the place was looking great as usual…

We always mention about An Grianan being our favourite Donegal wedding venue – we love the room, as it’s absolutely stunning and has great acoustics! The pic from the website below says it all…

We finished the week at Meka and Tony’s wedding in the Four Seasons Hotel Monaghan on Saturday night – thanks to both of them for inviting us along.

Ashleigh & Dave’s Wedding
We only had one wedding last week, but were lucky enough to spend it in a fantastic place with great people! :) We were back in the stunning Belle Isle Castle, playing at Ashleigh and Dave’s wedding – thanks to both of them for inviting us along. Andrea and the rest of the staff had everything running bang on time, and also had the place dressed to perfection. We disrupted that slightly, as we came in and started to setup in the wrong room! lol We weren’t aware of renovations since the last time we played there, and that we were playing in their new, larger function room! The castle and setting are absolutely stunning, and this place really is a must see if you’re looking for a more intimate wedding venue…

Orlagh & Sean’s Wedding
We’ve only the one wedding this week, but it was a great one! Orlagh and Sean had invited us along to play at their wedding in the fantastic Corick House Hotel and Spa. They had invited a massive crowd, and the room was more or less full. However, the Corick staff had the place looking great as always! Things were running a bit behind, as the speeches went on longer than expected. However, the staff weren’t long clearing space for us once the meal was over, plus they were nice enough to give us a dessert while we were waiting…

Frances & Bryan’s Wedding
We started our week in the Wild Duck Inn, Portglenone at Frances and Bryan’s wedding last night – thanks to both of them for inviting us along. Things were running a bit behind, so we had loads of time to load our gear in! However, the place was looking great as usual, and the guests must have been well fed, as we overheard a few great comments about the food…

Mairead & Mark’s Wedding
We finished our week in the Shepherd’s Rest, which is set in the Sperrins just outside Draperstown. It’s years since we last played in the Rest, so thanks again to Mairead and Mark for inviting us along to play at their big day. If you’re looking for a venue in a scenic area, with plenty of rustic charm, then look no further! It’s definitely a break from the norm, and offers the home from home service that you would expect in a rural area…

Sharon & Paul’s Wedding
We were back in the stunning Cabra Castle, Co. Cavan at Sharon and Paul’s wedding last night – thanks to both of them for inviting us along. As usual, the castle was looking fantastic, and the Grand Ballroom looked every bit as grand as it’s name suggests! If you’re thinking of having your wedding reception in a castle, then this place should definitely be on your shortlist…

Catherine & Cathal’s Wedding
We finished our week in the Four Seasons Hotel, Monaghan at Catherine and Cathal’s wedding on Saturday night – thanks to both of them for inviting us along. They had just finished their main course when we arrived, so we had a short wait to chill out before we started setting up. It was all good though, as Catherine and Cathal had booked a magician to entertain everyone after the meal – so we didn’t have to think too long for a title for this blog! We watched him merge two cards that Catherine and Cathal had separately signed into one, and we have no idea how he done it…

Kerry & John’s Wedding
We were back in the luxurious Slieve Russell Hotel in Ballyconnell (Co. Cavan) at Kerry and John’s wedding last night. Kerry’s dress was beautiful, and she looked absolutely stunning – she definitely stole the limelight from John! (sorry John, but you know it’s true! lol) As usual the hotel looked fantastic inside and out, plus the Erne Suite has had a renovation since we last played in it, and looks great…

Tracey & David’s Wedding
We were back in the Waterfoot Hotel in Derry at Tracey and David’s wedding last night – thanks to both of them for inviting us along. (three guesses how we picked our blog title! lol) Things were running a bit behind when we arrived, as main course was just being served! Obviously, we had a bit of wait, but that’s part of the job at times too! lol…

Michelle & Danilo’s Wedding
We made our debut in the rustic Rossahilly House just outside Enniskillen last night – thanks to Michelle and Danilo for inviting us along to play at their big day! As mentioned, it was our first time playing in Rossahilly – the first thing that hits you is the amazing view of Lough Erne – truly spectacular! The house itself has loads of rustic charm, and is ideal for a more intimate wedding…

Suzanne & Bones’ Wedding
We were back in the Canal Court Hotel for the second night in a row on Saturday – thanks to Suzanne and Bones for inviting us along. It’s not too often that we only have to walk in with a guitar and a couple of laptops! The lovely Darena was our duty manager yet again – it’s always great to see her, as she’s full of smiles and generally spoils us! Saturday night was no exception, and yet again she made sure that we were well fed during the buffet! Besides that, she was running things bang on schedule, as the room was cleared when we arrived…

Gillian & Sean’s Wedding
We were in the Armagh City Hotel at Gillian and Sean’s wedding last night – thanks to both of them for inviting us along. We haven’t played in the hotel for a while, and unusually we weren’t playing in the Fisher Suite. Instead we were playing in the Fringe Lounge, which is a really nice room, with loads of cool ambient lighting. ..

Lisa & Rodney’s Wedding
If you’re wondering why we have Metallica’s James Hetfield on our header pic, and his trademark ‘Yeah’ as our post title, then we’ll explain! Lisa and Rodney had chosen Metallica’s ‘Nothing Else Matters’ as their first dance song, which (in our opinion) is a great first dance song – although we might be a bit biased as we’re both big Metallica fans! lol We were thinking that might be the theme for the night, but there weren’t that many rock fans in, so will still played our usual mix of songs – everything from Nathan Carter to Metallica…

Alexandra & Kostas’ Wedding
We were back in the stunning Brownlow House, Lurgan last night at Alex and Kostas’ wedding – thanks to both of them for inviting us along. You could say it’s been a while since we were there – our last wedding in the place was New Year’s Eve 2009! However, Robert has the place looking even better – it’s a really classy venue, and should be on your shortlist if you’re looking for a venue in the Lurgan area…

Danielle & Gerard’s Wedding
We were back in the Greenvale Hotel, Cookstown on Saturday night at Danielle and Gerard’s wedding – cheers guys, thanks for inviting us along.

Mandy & Steven’s Wedding
We were back in Corick House for the first time this year on Saturday night to play at Mandy and Steven’s wedding – thanks to both of them for inviting us along. Corick House was like a home away from home for us last year, as we played in it so often – so it’s unusual to not have been there for nearly four months! Anyway, the place was looking great as always, and Cheryl and the rest of the staff had everything running bang on time…
