A summer of weddings

18th August saw Jenna Smith marry Paddy McBride at Hathersage with the service conducted by the band's resident vicar, Tim Robinson. The band would like to wish the happy couple all the very best for the future. Jenna walked down the 'aisle' to Procession to the Minster played on a CD!

The band were very pleased and proud to play at the wedding of former band member Peter Bowd to Kath on the 8th September in Hollingworth. Pete, as usual, was very organised wanted Trumpet Voluntary for Kath to walk into and God Be With You whilst they signed the register. He was a little 'relaxed' about what he wanted to go out to so the band chose for him and surprised him with Dark Town Strutters ball. They were on their own outside as the congregation stayed to listen to the whole performance. That'll teach him!

The band would like to wish all 3 couples every happiness for the future.
