Another lovely trip to gorgeous Rockbeare Manor. This venue seems to be our second home now and we love playing here. Thanks to Steph and the team for looking after us. We played a mixture of pieces before the ceremony including the 007 theme for the groomsmen who looked very dapper. We then played for an hour or so to accompany the drinks reception including 'Life on Mars' which we haven't played for a while. Great tune! Lovely day making music together. We will be back in December for some Christmas weddings.

Lovely summer wedding with the Exe Valley String Quartet. A Thousand years, A million Dreams and I’m yours in the ceremony. Nice to try out some new arrangements today as well. Take my hand, Mardy Bum and cheap Thrills. All great new additions to our already extensive repertoire. New venue for us today. Beautiful and such lovely staff! @Uptonbarnandwalledgarden.

We played at the very beautiful Ottery St Mary Church today for a festive Christmas wedding. Although the weather was awful outside there was a warm and festive atmosphere inside. This was a wedding with all the trimmings. String Quartet, Organist, Choir and Bell Ringers. Pachelbels Canon for the brides entrance and then some of Handel's Water Music for the signing. This was our final gig of 2019. We would love to wish you all a very Merry Christmas and a huge thank you for following us this year and in fact this decade. 2020 is already looking like another great year for the Exe Valley String Quartet. Happy Christmas and a Peaceful New Year everybody!
