Wedding Celebrations

Choirs are often called upon to perform at weddings but this one was even more special as Annie and Ed met each other whilst singing in our choir! There was a third connection as Paul, their chosen celebrant is also a member!

Ed, Paul and Annie

We were honoured to sing during the ceremony and then entertained every one with some of the happy couple's favourites in the evening.

During the ceremony

As well as their chosen songs we surprised them with a new and wholly appropriate song. One of our members had heard the Henry Girls performing Here Beside Me and thought that the lyrics were very moving. So we asked the Henry Girls if they would allow us to perform their song, not only did they say yes they offered to record a special 3 part a cappella version, which they did in their dressing room whilst on tour in Germany.
