Royal Wedding at Borru House

On August we played for the wedding of James and Cheryl at their beautiful home in Erskine. James is a direct descendant of Brian Borru of Ireland, and the wedding signinfied the first Scottish wedding of the clan since the 10th century. As well as the normal wedding vows and rings exchanged, Cheryl also received a royal ring, and was named a Lady. It was held in a marquee in the formal gardens and although it was raining it didn't put a dampner on the day. The music had a distinct Irish feel and we played the Brian Borru march for James arriving, the Prince of Denmark's March for Cheryl walking down the ailse and From Clare to Here at the signing of the register.
