Wedding Fair, Mad Hatter and Macklemore!

What a wonderful week it's been.  First of all, the kids have gone back to school (woohoo!) and I do apologise about sounding so excited about that. I absolutely love and adore my little divas, but jeez - I am more than happy to get back to work with a vengeance.

And on Sunday, an unfeasibly and most welcome warm day Key Largo Trio were excited to be at the Bedern Hall Wedding Fair which was put together by the Chief of Bedern, Mr Roger Lee and the lovely people of York Wedding Deals.

Here's some promo shots that featured in the York Evening Press.

How cool are these?

Nice to  be part of something creative and different.  After all, we've seen plenty of ethereal, romantically beautiful brides so how fun to see this rather theatrical twist!
Here's some little pics I managed to take whilst everyone was getting set up:

Rachel doing groovy hand thing!

Catherine looking sophisticated!


 It turned out to be both a strange and fantastic day.  Now I say                        

strange, because I didn't actually play much flute. That was in some large

part down to the fact that I had a dreaded lurgy and had a cough attack half

way through Pachelbel's Canon.  But also due to the fact that I decided to

chat to all the lovely soon-to-be married people instead.



I often get little chance to do this as I'm so involved in playing the music, and

it was a lovely change.  After all, I do like a good old natter about weddings.





Who doesn't?










 And I think the highlight of the day was talking to

a fab ukelele-loving couple who are hoping to have an unusual wedding,

perhaps even a Mad Hatters Tea Party style.









             Awesome.  I want to be there.

In other Key Largo Trio news, we are soon to record a lovely version of the classic song 'At Last'  Here's a quick live recording

But we're going to add some bass flute and cello and then along with some beautiful wedding photographs by Nikki Bowling we're going to make a little promo video with it too.


And as a little bit of an adventure and fun task we're 'mashing up' Macklemore's massive chart hit 'Thrift Shopping' with Palladio.




This will feature eggs (the musical kind) and a little booty shaking.  It will however, be a
Sweary-Rap-Free zone.

We have limits x



I'd quite like to work that faux fur coat look though! Hee hee x
