This is one of our very talented tenor drummers, Amy, who today (10th Nov) became Mrs Graham Prentice. The couple invited the band to the evening reception and asked if we could play, so we staged a mini-band (6 pipers, 3 snare drummers, 2 tenors, 1 bass). Amy also wanted to play as part of the band for part of the time, so here she is in all her wedding finery.
Wishing the happy couple all the best for the future.
