Then, today, as generally I have no wedding ceremonies to perform at, I decided to do a wee home recording. A Thousand Years is such a beautiful song and a really popular one around Belfast and in fact throughout Northern Ireland, so I decided to record a cover of it my living room on the laptop. I'm also planning to perform an instrumental version at a wedding ceremony in Belfast very soon. Have a wee listen...
So a busy weekend this weekend! As well as all the usual wedding ceremony and wedding reception bits and pieces, this wedding singer also had a rehearsal with the fabulous 'The Dandy Horses' for our big trip to Ethiopia to perform for the Irish Embassy. That went on quite late but was great fun. We are leaving Belfast, Northern Ireland on Thursday 19th March for 5 days. So no wedding ceremony in Belfast that weekend. However, if you are looking for a wedding singer for your ceremony or reception that weekend get in touch as I can recommend a few people.

Just found this beautiful photo of Ryan & Katie Vail. I played at their church wedding ceremony in 2013.... can't believe it has been so long. They had a lovely intimate wedding ceremony in Culmore, Derry/Londonderry, Northern Ireland. You see... I travel all over Northern Ireland! It was a beautiful day and she chose such wonderful music, Gabriel's Oboe - one of my favourite. We then left Northern Ireland and went to Donegal for the wedding reception. As much as I love performing at weddings in Belfast, Northern Ireland, I do so love a little trip away. Below is a little clip of Gabriel's Oboe from YouTube. I really should get a recording of me performing this. Such a great choice for a wedding ceremony. I'm not only a wedding singer in Belfast, but also a violin player.... Well I was recently asked to play this song for a wedding ceremony in Belfast, Northern Ireland.. Such a beautiful song, the true sentiment of love and a perfect wedding song! That is one of the joys of working as a wedding singer. I get to learn beautiful new songs that I otherwise wouldn't get the time to learn. Now, I'm actually going to play this on the violin and is it sounding really great... but I thought sure I might as well learn a few chords and lyrics. I'm sure this will prove very popular at other wedding ceremonies around Northern Ireland and will fit perfectly into my repertoire for the predinner drinks reception too. What are your favourite songs for wedding ceremonies and wedding receptions? Have you been to any weddings around Belfast or Northern Ireland where the wedding singer sang something completely inappropriate? Lol... I was a very busy little wedding singer yesterday. I started very early as I had to travel quite a distance in Northern Ireland to
get to my final destination. I always love a little trip away from Belfast. There are so many beautiful wedding venues, churches and castles around our lovely country. Belfast Castle is a favourite of mine, although I also love Crom Castle in Co Fermanagh, Northern Ireland. Then straight back home again to lovely Belfast for a rehearsal with the Dandy Horses for a little rehearsal for performance at the Irish Embassy in Ethiopia. We were discussing perhaps putting ourselves forward to perform at a Wedding Fair in Belfast. Do you think theses are worth while? Then I was working on my own wedding singer repertoire! I learnt a few new songs for a church wedding ceremony in Belfast, S'omewhere Over The Rainbow' and 'How Great Thou Art' Remember, if you are looking for a violin player for your church wedding ceremony or a civil service somewhere in Northern Ireland, I can offer a complete music wedding package. Just get in touch for prices if you are looking for something that i isn't on my option list. It's Friday!!! Don't you love Fridays? The weekend is ahead and so many exciting things to do. Tomorrow I'll be travelling a
little further afield than Belfast, exploring the beauties of Northern Ireland and perhaps helping a happy bride and groom enjoy their special wedding day ceremony. I performed at a church wedding ceremony at the Mussenden Temple, Castlerock a few years ago. An absolutely beautiful wedding ceremony, perched on the top of the hill. Have you any favourite spots in Northern Ireland? So fantastic spending my weekends as a wedding singer. Lol. Don't forget all wedding singer bookings made in January have a 10% discount. I can also play at church ceremonies and civil partnerships during the week. Northern Ireland wedding singer goes to Ethiopia!! Yeehaaa... quite exciting really. I have toured all over the world, but
haven't been away anywhere for the last few years so will be lovely to get a wee holiday... and perform for the Irish ambassador at the same time. So, one weekend, wedding ceremony singer in a church in Belfast and the next.... Northern Ireland singer in Addis Ababa. Hehe, exciting life! Get to see so much. That's another reason why I love being a wedding singer... I get to see some beautiful wedding locations throughout Belfast and Northern Ireland and I always see people at their happiest. Perfect! I got some fantastic news today!! The weekend of 21st March, I won't be in Belfast, I won't even be in Northern Ireland... I
have been invited by the Irish Embassy, as a member of The Dandy Horses to go to Ethiopia and perform at their annual gala ball in Addis Ababa. We will be performing for dignitaries and everything! So excited!!!!! Thankfully, that is one weekend when I didn't have any wedding ceremonies or wedding receptions booked yet. So I will have to keep it free. Don't forget, 10% discount off church wedding ceremonies, civil partnerships & wedding receptions if booked before the end of January! |
