My wife and I were out with gay friends the other night who, in the course of the evening, invited us to their wedding. If you are gay and reading this you will know that from December the 5th you can begin the process for a civil ceremony that can take place on or after the 21st of December.
It was the first I have heard of such legislation although in the back of my mind there was a faint recollection of an article about David Furnish and Elton John getting married about the same time. Being a musician and business person it occurred to me there is now a whole new market for our musical services.
What do you want from a music supplier? We would be delighted to hear from any potential gay clients about their marriage wedding music requirements. Why not contact us via email at bonejeff@aol.com We use some of the finest musicians in the capital in all areas of musical excellence and are confident we can help make your day one to remember.
What can we offer as your music supplier? Below are just some ideas we would be happy to discuss with you.
For the ceremony: Solo Baroque trumpet, Classical guitar duo, Male or Female String Quartet or solo male piano/vocalists
For the pre wedding breakfast drinks reception: All Female Jazz Trio/Quartet, Acoustic Dixieland Trio/Quartet. Strolling Saxophonist.
During Dinner: Dinner Jazz played as a solo, duo or trio. (Any more than this tends to be intrusive)
After Dinner Dancing: We recommend the Roadhouse Five. Quite simply the best party band around today. Top professional side men from such artists as Van Morrison, Eddie Reader, Kate Bush, Take That, Eric Clapton, Beverly Craven and Phil Collins. This is not a function band of tired jobsworths, nor is it a young inexperienced band of kids out of college. Instead it is a real, hard rocking, hard grooving funky band who know how to make a party swing!
Normally the band will play a set of swing and Rat Pack classics whilst your guests are getting over the rigours of your speeches and dinner. This is followed by two sets of classic sixties and seventies soul and pop. If requested we can also augment the band with a true soul diva for a full set of seventies disco.
