Violin Duets - The Ivy Place - Lancaster, SC

We love June weddings. It feels like the official start of wedding season, and we love when this time of year is finally here. It means lots of extra rehearsals, compiling music, and so much planning... but it's all fun for us.

Two weddings & an anniversary surprise!

Our first gig of the month was a solo violin wedding at Rock Barn. The shade of blue was beautiful! It was such a windy day, so we had to put weights on our stand so it wouldn't blow over!

April played classical violin solos during the 30-minute prelude and for the ceremony. It was simple, sweet, and beautiful!

August 9: The Quarry at Carrigan Farms Wedding

We played ceremony music on violin & keyboard at this sweet wedding at Carrigan Farms in Mooresville, NC, on an overcast but beautiful Saturday afternoon. This was our first time at this venue. It's a great spot, because it has the water and sand, so it has the feel of the beach without the drive for all the guests :)
