Winter wedding at Northcote House

I played at a lovely wedding in Northcote House, Ascot a few weeks ago.

  Probably the first decision is not surprisingly, what will be your first dance if you having one. For some couples, the choice is obvious, for others its harder. Maybe a medley of tunes (I have arranged several first dances made up of the combined bride and grooms favourite tunes) or a unique cover version.

Choosing a Wedding DJ

After initially saying tell them to hire me, I started to think about a more constructive answer. The wedding reception is, in most instances, the longest part of the celebrations.
