Viewing entries in
Wedding Fayre
;)
It seems like just yesterday that I was blogging about the wedding fayre that The City Rooms held last Autumn... Well here we are again only, this time, it is definitely Spring (I put the clock forward with both delight and dread: Spring was finally here but I lost a very important hour in bed!)
;)
The very sweet Leah from Golden Apple Stationary was there (her only wedding fayre this year no less!), Digital Dreams videography were out in full force and, of course, a live performance from Adam Thomas and the Souljers to wake everyone up and have some fun! Even Mr Chris Denner made an appearence, wowsers!
;)
We love the team at the City Rooms in Leicester as they're so upbeat and excited about what they do: weddings are such important and special things to be a part of and some suppliers unfortunately forget this. Their enthusiasm for what they do is catching and we always love working with them (especially now that the lovely Kelly has joined them as wedding coordinator.)
;)

We treated visitors to a bit of Paolo Nutini, My Girl and a few other numbers... Short, sweet and surprising is our motto :) To our delight, we had a record nine enquiries on the day itself and several more have come in since!

About The City Rooms
The City Rooms is a Georgian, Grade 1 listed banqueting venue with boutique rooms in the heart of Leicester city centre.
This stunning, historic venue attracts guests from all over the East Midlands and further afield. Built in 1792, it is a venue steeped in history, with many fascinating features, giving evidence of the original plans for the building to become the premier hotel in Leicester. Used primarily as a venue to hold events, The City Rooms is also now open as first intended over two hundred years ago. The four lavishly decorated boutique bedrooms are one of the best kept secrets in the city centre.

There's nothing to say that a posh venue has to be stuffy or snooty... Even the snobs of the world want to have fun you know ;)
Stapleford Park is one of the most prestigious wedding venue in the Midlands and has hosted some of the world's biggest names of stage, screen and sports. Michael Carrick and Peter Crouch have both married their sweethearts at Stapleford and guests of honour at different events have included Michael Jackson, Mariah Carey and Bruno Mars! And now Adam Thomas!! :)
Sarah Smith and her lovely team invited Adam Thomas and the Souljers to rock their Orangery last Sunday afternoon for the annual Stapleford Park wedding fair... And rock it we did! :)
;)
Basking in glorious sunshine (at the beginning of March no less), Stapleford Park looked stunning last Sunday afternoon and brides flocked from miles around to see exactly what this prestigious wedding venue could offer for their big day.
;)
The team there (consisting of yet another 2 Sarah's!) did a great job and there was a steady flow of couples enjoying Adam's take on some of the Swing classics and upbeat Soul music in the Orangery throughout the entire afternoon: we even had a few join us for a boogie, take pictures and film us on their phones :)
We had lots of lovely enquiries and exciting chats and, judging by the feedback that we had on the day, we hope to continue to be regular performers for Stapleford Park's weddings and events in the future! :)

We have only ever seen Walton Hall in glorious sunshine... Regardless of the season, this beautiful building and its grounds have always been showered with the sun's rays every time we've visited. Well, until their wedding fair on March 4th this year that is!
;)
As we drove along the miles and miles of driveway, the rain poured down and you couldn't see a singular patch of clear sky... Not exactly the perfect weather to visit a wedding fayre but that didn't stop the hordes of brides that had made plans to visit Walton Hall that day!
;)
The proof of the pudding seemed to be that this majestic building close to Stratford looked so impressive and imposing in horrendous weather that future brides could be assured that, no matter what the forecast is for their big day, Walton Hall will wow their guests!
The excellent team at the Barcelo Walton Hall had worked very hard to ensure that their wedding fayre went as smoothly as can be: lots of staff on hand to help with every enquiry, a full range of quality exhibitors and a fabulous catwalk show which should be the envy of all others. Adam Thomas took to the catwalk with his bouncing Souljers and shook Walton Hall on that cold, rainy afternoon! With a bit of Paolo Nutini to wake everyone up, the hall was soon warmed up and bopping along!
;)
With lots of lovely enquiries under our belt and having had a lovely chat with the team, we pulled off along the long, long drive and guess what? The sun came out :)

Last Sunday we performed live at a very busy Kelham Hall for the White Media wedding fair to a lovely bunch of couples and their families.
We performed a diverse mix of songs and had loads of enquiries and loads of fun too!
But one of the Souljers had more fun to come!!
One of the male models for the catwalk show hadn't turned up and they were one guy short... enter one tall guy, Tom Francis!
It was his first time as a world renowned male model and he did a great job it must be said. But then what did we expect, modelling is just posing and strutting and they just happen to be Tom's specialities!
We're at the wonderful Walton Hall next week so if you're around come and say hi. If not then you can find us at many other exciting wedding fairs in the East Midlands this season.
