The worst wedding we played was for a couple where the mother of the bride did not approve. The bride's parents didn't show up and the site of the room where the rest of the bride's family sat were rude. They just sat there, mostly with arms crossed all night. I felt sorry for the new couple.

I've played a lot of good weddings too, but we tend to remember the bad ones because they are the unusual ones.

Before playing the reception on one particular wedding, I played "A Time For Us" on my alto in a big church with lots of reverberation. That was worth the extra money, and if it wasn't my business, I would have done that for free just to hear the reverb.

Playing the alto sax brings this back 'on topic' wink
