There were a couple of reasons why we were excited to perform at Kenneth & Grace’s wedding. Firstly, they engaged a 5-piece band and that usually means a lot more fun for musicians (and more exciting music for the guests too)! Secondly, we are thrilled to perform at Raffles Hotel again after the long awaited refurbishment works. This ballroom used to be the old Jubilee Hall, check out how it has been transformed:
Kenneth & Grace also engaged part of the ensemble Sharon (piano) & Boon Chye (saxophone) to perform instrumental music at the cocktail reception. Here’s a sneak preview of their performance on ‘How does a moment last forever (Celine Dion):
Kenneth also took the effort to have 2 genres of music for the evening. The 1st set of the music was jazz (see repertoire below), and the 2nd set of music was pop/classics. Toward the end of the 2nd set was faster numbers, and we even managed to get some guests up to the dance floor on “You Make Me Feel Like Dancing”, “Love in the first degree”, “Let’s Twist Again’ etc. But the couple was invited to the dance floor for a slow dance when 2 of their friends volunteer to perform “If I ain’t got you” on the spot!
Congratulations Kenneth & Grace! Always remember to feel each other‘s heart and soul. Wishing you a happy married life!
