Blog - Emma and Gary's wedding at Reach Court Farm May 2023
Hosting a wedding is something I enjoy. Emma & Gary approached me looking for a fun and relaxed wedding and I used my expertise to deliver just that.
We initially met in June 2022 and talked through what they wanted for their wedding. I take the time during client meetings to listen to what couples have enjoyed from previous weddings and what they want to avoid.
Emma and Gary described what they were looking for, using the three words: fun, traditional and relaxed. Using this as a guide, I tailored my approach to fit in around what they were looking for.
During the afternoon I started with a blend of relaxed music and added in the music they'd requested.
It was great working with the team at Reach Court Farm. Together with James Soules Photography, Blackbird Caterers and Your Booths Kent, the whole day ran smoothly.
Here is the full list of music that I played during the afternoon and evening.
