The couple emailed them a playlist of songs for when they weren’t performing, and when they were, they took requests from guests. “They could quite literally play any song on the planet. They were brilliant,” Lucy says. They even let Adam perform a couple of numbers with them, which went down a treat. MEMORABLE MOMENTS The ceremony was the highlight of the day for Lucy. She says, “Our registrar was brilliant and gave us a beautiful, moving service. Having our closest friends and family involved, such as my nephew carrying the rings, the beautiful readings by my friend and sister-in-law and seeing my bridesmaids together on the stairs was just lovely. Thinking about making our vows still gives me goose bumps!” The best man’s speech too was a memorable moment for all as he picked up his guitar and started strumming while chatting to the guests. He’s Adam’s best friend and band mate and explained how it was music that brought them together and solidified their friendship. Everyone was expecting a song, but he’d actually written a lovely and funny poem.” “You only get one day – treasure every minute.” 34
