Our second visit to Caswell House was for the very elegant and stylish wedding of Alys and Steven in August 2023.
We were providing music for the indoor ceremony, an outdoor drinks reception and then returning indoors to provide music for their meal.
The Ceremony
Starting with the ceremony Alys and Steven had chosen some lovely music to suit the occasion:

O Mio Babbino Caro (Puccini)
Can’t Help falling in love (Elvis Presley) arranged by The Brooklyn Duo
Moon River Arranged for Cello and Piano
Salut D’amour Elgar
Bridal Entrance
Ave Maria for the bridesmaid entrance and then Canon in D for the Bride Entrance
Ave Maria Schubert – Arranged for Cello and Piano

Signing
Your Song (Elton John) Arranged for Cello & Piano
Halo (Beyoncé) Arranged For Cello And Piano
Exit
All you need is Love (The Beatles) arranged for Cello and Piano
The Reception
Moving outside after the ceremony we set up on the terrace in some quite hot sunshine to provide music during the drinks reception. Unusual for this Summer to have hot sun so it was most welcome and really lended itself to the beautiful surroundings of Caswell House in Oxfordshire.
We were then back indoors for the meal where we set up in a similar location as for the ceremony to provide a blend of Jazz and easy listening music during the wedding breakfast.
It was a real pleasure to provide music for Alys and Steven who make a lovely couple. We wish them every happiness as they embark on their married life together.
