Hotel du Vin Birmingham

There are several things in my life I’m passionate about:  living in England, my hubby and kids, playing the harp, and wine.  So imagine my excitement when the event manager of the Birmingham Hotel du Vin asked us to play for their exclusive wedding fayre!  As a regular in the HdV Bistro, and Champagne Bar, I’ve seen wedding parties through the hotel, but have never had the thrill of playing one there.

From our corner position in the courtyard, the dulcet sounds of the flute and harp carried throughout the event, and into the lobby, very beautifully.  Here is a video of Sarah and I, officially called the Nimbus Flute and Harp Duo, playing during the wedding fayre (Oct 2012):

There were some amazing table decorations by Bonne Fete, gorgeous jewellery from Highly Strung Designs, and stunning wedding hair styles by the aptly named Sally Scissor Hands!  Most amazing were the number of couples planning weddings for 2014 – now that’s some early planning!!
