A thoroughly enjoyable afternoon at Hensol Castle yesterday.  Bagpiping for the Wedding of Lauren & Carl.

A complete surprise for all except the Bride.  I appeared at the last minute to lead Lauren into the handfasting ceremony.  In addition, her her chosen tune was “Highland Cathedral”.
 
I also played during the signing of the register.  With the joining of both Scots & Welsh families as one, I played “The Skye Boat Song”, along with “Myfanwy”.
 
Thereafter, I then led the Happy Couple to the confetti photograph playing “Mhairi’s Wedding”.  In addition to, “The Barren Rocks of Aden”, “Land of My Fathers” & “Flower of Scotland”.
 
I also played a number of sessions in the grounds.  Thereafter, I led the happy couple into the Wedding Breakfast.  I conclusion, the tunes were “The Green Hills of Tyrol”, “Scotland the Brave”, along with, “Calon Lan”.  Calon Lan with accompanied with guests singing 🙂
 
Congratulations to Lauren & Carl. Very best wishes to you both.
