The Upper House | Staffordshire

The Upper House in Staffordshire - 10th April 2015 The Upper House in Staffordshire is a lovely rural Victorian hotel and wedding venue. The added bonus is that it’s just a short drive from where I live. As much as I enjoy travelling to unknown venues and seeing something different, it’s certainly nice when I take a wedding guitarist booking at a Staffordshire venue.  I must admit that I didn’t realize quite how local The Upper House is for me.  It turns out that The Upper House is set in the same 10 acres of woodland in which I go walking at [...]

Top 5 Best Wedding Ceremony Songs: Processional

Top 5 Best Wedding Ceremony Songs: Processional I’ve been perusing the forums on many wedding themed websites and blogs recently in a bid to keep up to date with what brides are looking for with regards to music for the wedding ceremony.  I get booked to play guitar at the wedding ceremony on lots of occasions so it’s important to keep my repertoire current.  However instead of finding a deluge of answers, I uncovered many more questions regarding music for the wedding ceremony.  One of the questions which seems to keep popping up is “Which songs should I choose for the [...]

Peckforton Castle | Cheshire

I’ve been looking forward to playing at Peckforton Castle in Cheshire ever since I took the booking way back in August last year.  The venue is simply stunning!  To deepen my anticipation I treated myself to a new DSLR camera for my birthday last week, which I’ve been dying to try out somewhere picturesque.  The British weather is always something of a gamble; snow in April, heat waves in December.  I had my fingers crossed that today would at least be dry and relatively clear so that I could road test my new camera.  Low and behold, by some miracle the [...]

Wentbridge House Hotel | Yorkshire

The majority of wedding gigs go off without a hitch.  Today was not one of them.  So what possible cataclysmic turn of events occurred today which caused me such consternation? I broke a nail. For classical guitarists, the shape and condition of the nails on the right hand play a crucial part in the production of good tone.  Classical guitarists who have been playing for any length of time will have tried and tested countless different nail shapes in a bid to establish their exact preference.  Each guitarist has their own particular playing style, much in the same way we [...]

Hilltop Country House | Cheshire

This was the first of two performances I’ve been booked for in Cheshire this week.  Yesterday I played classical guitar at Louise and Adam’s wedding ceremony at the Hilltop Country House in the Macclesfield area of Cheshire.  The venue is a lovely well kept country house, hidden away out of sight of the main roads.  I was met at the venue by Martin, who I believe runs the Hilltop Country House and also doubles as the wedding photographer.  I enjoy working with family run businesses as their passion for their work really comes across.  We had a quick informal chat before the [...]

Billesley Manor | Warwickshire

A grand manor house venue for the most intimate wedding I’ve ever played at.  Today was a real treat as I was invited to play guitar at a small wedding ceremony at Billesley Manor.  There were only 5 members of the wedding party; this included the bride and groom, two close friends plus their witness/photographer.  Being such a small wedding ceremony the atmosphere felt delicately poised; a mixture of anticipation and excitement filled the air, which I attempted to ease by playing Mozart’s ‘Andante in E’ and ‘Birds Flew Over The Spire’, along with some other relaxing pieces from my [...]
