Wedding – I had the pleasure of playing at the wedding of an Iranian girl to a Scottish lad at the weekend. All the males in the wedding party where dressed in kilts irrespective of which country they were from, likewise the bridesmaids all danced a traditional knife dance prior to cutting the cake.
I played a mixture of 90’s and current music along with some Scottish and Iranian tracks. It was great to see a full dance floor all night and everybody enjoying the others culture.
This what the bride had to say the next day:
“Hi Paul Thank you so much for everything you did. We had an amazing time and we had so many great comments about you.”
The venue was Woodlands Park Hotel in the lovely Surrey countryside.
