Perfect outdoor wedding day - 20 May 2012

On an absolutely gorgeous outing, we got the chance to play some new additions and perform with a wonderful vocalist. The trip out to West Orange in our zip was pure delight! We arrived just in time to do a sound check and begin the prelude. The ceremony was held in the purely magically green in front of the stunning castle entrance. Every color was so crisp and clean in on this sunny day and the breeze and temperature were perfection! Leanne Weiss performed with us and she sounded fantastic. We hope to perform with more singers in the future (if you need any just let us know)!

A Warehouse Wedding - 19 May 2012

Finally! A place close to home (in Queens!) We were booked for a wedding in the unexpectedly beautiful Metropolitan Building in LIC. The outside of the venue almost looks like an abandoned soup kitchen. But once you walk in, you're greeted by a lovely & classic space that is just right for a nice wedding. IN the back there was even a huge collection of lamps! Unusual location probably means unusual wedding, right? Yeah, you're so right! The bride wanted contemporary music thoroughout so we brushed up our chops for a rip-roaring, good 'ol fashioned jam wedding! :)

A Mother's Day Wedding - 19 May 2012

We drove down on this beautiful Mother's Day to Long Island for a gorgeous wedding for Esther & Jay. It was set in the garden area of Bourne Mansion, a Great Gatsby-esque mansion facing the South Bay = fantastic view. The sky with the perfect blue, the grass and unbelieveable green, and the white staircase was just glimmering in the midday sun. We performed alongside our good friend soprano Kacey Cardin who was hired to sing three songs for the occasion. Great choice for a lovely celebration:
