A 214 Martin Street Wedding For Heather and Lincoln

I was so happy to finally play for Heather and Lincoln’s wedding at 214 Martin Street on November 9th!  They originally were supposed to be married in September, but Hurricane Florence had other plans.

Their ceremony was still held at All Saints Chapel.  After that the 120 guests made their way over to 214 Martin for the reception. As the guests arrived I had a mix of trip hop, indie rock and electro-swing playing.  Photographers Andrea & Marcus Anderson stayed at the chapel to get some shots of the wedding party before heading over for the reception.  

After the cocktail hour I invited guests to find their seats and went to line the wedding party up with lots of help from planners C and D Events.  The Bridesmaids entered to “Run The World” and Groomsmen to “It’s Raining Men”.  Heather and Lincoln entered to “Shape Of You” from top of the stairs and made their way to the dance floor for their first dance to Say You Won’t Let Go”.  Her Father welcomed everyone and her Aunt blessed the meal.  The Catering By Design buffet opened shortly and during dinner I played standards, blues and indie rock.  
 
After dinner we had the toasts and parents dances. Heather and her Father danced to “I Loved Her First” and Lincoln and his Mother to “Loves Me Like A Rock”. After that we had the cake cutting to “When I’m Sixty-For” and an anniversary dance to “Cheek to Cheek” by Ella & Louis. I opened the floor to everyone with “S.O.B.” by Nathaniel Rateliffe and the ZimZoom Photo booth opened. For the next 1.5 hours guests danced to 70’s, 80’s, sing a alongs and a few oldies before the last dance to “Time Of My Life” from Dirty Dancing. As everyone was leaving I played “Home” by Edward Sharpe before the sparkler exit.

Thank you so much Heather, Lincoln and Kelsy!  I had a blast and was so glad I could play for your rescheduled date!
