We once booked a wedding ceremony and reception at a elegant countryside venue with a lodge, acres of grass and trees and a guest house. The guest house was “operation central” where the band met with the bride and her mother to go through the afternoon’s final details. It was also the backdrop to the ceremony.
The meeting soon turned into a shouting match with the bride yelling that if we played the mother’s song we would be fired and the mother yelling the that if we played the bride’s song we would be fired!
I think we played a medley.
Their relationship must have been truly challenging because the bride had a cake for her friends and the mother a cake for her’s.
