We always enjoy being a part of weddings at Bredenbury Court Barns in Herefordshire. This is a delightful venue and very popular with couples. Our blend of cello and piano is ideal for daytime music at Bredenbury and today’s wedding was no exception.

Ceremony, Drinks and Meal
The Wedding Ceremony
We started in the orangery, which serves as the ceremony room at Bredenbury. As is generally the case, we set up with our piano and cello at the rear of the ceremony room.
For the bridal entrance we played a blend of Canon in D into Fearless by Taylor Swift. We always love to blend two songs together as this creates such a special moment for the bride to make her entrance.
As this was a celebrant lead ceremony there was no signing as such, but we did play quietly in the background of a pebble ceremony. At this moment we played ‘Tie a Yellow Ribbon’ as the pebbles were passed around the guests.
For the couple exit, Maisie and Sam had chosen Happily Ever After from the Disney World fireworks show which was a very fitting tribute to this lovely couple. And indeed we do wish them all the best for their own Happily Ever After.
The Drinks Reception and Wedding Breakfast
After the ceremony we relocated into the bar area to continue providing music during the drinks reception. Here, our glossy black piano shell is a distinct advantage. Not only does it look super stylish in the setting at Bredenbury but it makes relocating much easier. The net result of that is more music for our couples and their guests during both the drinks and meal.
Music during the wedding breakfast
We played a selection of music and had been given some direction by Maisie and Sam about their music choices which included:
Concerning Hobbits – Lord of the Rings: Fellowship of the Ring
