The Reception
After the ceremony we moved just along the corridor to swiftly set up again in the bar area to provide music during the drinks reception.

From our space in front of the mirror we were able to provide music throughout the drinks reception while guests enjoyed drinks from the bar. Typically at this point we provide music for around 90 minutes or the duration of the drinks reception provided it is not much longer (or shorter). Our cue for relocating into the meal room is generally the point where the bride and groom are called in to look at the setup before the guests are invited to take their seats.

In the ‘barn’ at Bredenbury we set up in the corner of the meal room by the top table as requested so that we could provide music throughout the wedding breakfast. This meant we could then stay in situe for the first dance which, at Bredenbury, usually occurs around 8pm directly after the cake cutting.

Mike and Mary-Anne had chosen ‘A Million Dreams’ from the Greatest Showman for their first dance and they had learnt a routine to match our arrangement.
It was our absolute pleasure to provide daytime music for Mike and Mary-Anne at Bredenbury Court Barns. We enjoyed being a part of their wedding day and we wish them every happiness as they set off on their married journey as husband and wife together.
