Josh and Nikki booked The Clemenza String Trio to perform classical music and pop songs during their ceremony. Later on, our ever-popular rock & pop cover band Get Carter kept guests dancing the night away!
Our wedding took place at Northbrook Park, in Farnham, Surrey. We chose this venue because of its location and beautiful setting. Every room opened up to stunning grounds, giving each room a unique feeling of the outdoors.
They had our whole wedding party up and dancing and singing
all night!
We hosted both our wedding ceremony and reception at Northbrook Park
and had our families stay the night. The venue was perfect as it held up
to 200 guests (which we needed with both of our large families).
We wanted our wedding theme to match colors of the venue room, which were quite light and orangery. We created a rustic feel with elements of elegance and as it was spring, we kept the flowers natural and light!
For our ceremony, we chose The Clemenza String Trio to create an elegant atmosphere for when the guests arrived. They also played some pop songs during the reception, which lightened the mood. It was great to hear some of the songs in a different format!
We also chose Get Carter as we wanted a live wedding band for our evening who were energetic and could play some of the classics as well as some recent tunes! Get Carter managed to play everything superbly, keeping everyone dancing the night away, including my 90 year old Great Aunt!
We thought both acts were amazing and really made our day special! The Clemenza String Trio created a brilliant atmosphere and mix for when all of our guests arrived.
Get Carter were phenomenal! I was a little worried because we hadn't heard them in person, but they totally knocked our socks off! They had our whole wedding party up and dancing and singing all night; I don't think I managed to speak to anyone as I was too busy dancing! We had so many compliments throughout and even after the wedding.
The service I got from Function Central was brilliant! Not knowing where to look or what to do, they made it very clear and simple and managed to answer all my ridiculous questions straight away. The website was very useful as well, as it showcases the acts by providing different tracks to listen to. We were referred by a family member who had been to another wedding with a Function Central band playing and recommended us to take a look at their wedding bands in and around Surrey.
There were so many amazing moments from the day, but I have to say one of them was when Josh and I managed to look at our guests all singing and dancing to Wonderwall by Oasis, which Get Carter sang! It was a moment where we could just stand back and enjoy!
I would advise to take one step at a time and to believe that it will all happen and there is no point to get stressed or hung up on little details which might not matter in the end!
