Penguin Music Plays First Ceremony of the Year in NY Botanical Gardens

April 20th, 2013

This was Penguin Music’s first wedding of the season, and the weather really cooperated! It was one of the first weekends of the year that the Botanical Gardens were lively, and it was a great setting for this wedding.

The bride entered to Brandi Carlile’s ‘The Story’, which was a new one for us. Glad to add it to our repertoire! Also really fun was the recessional ‘Higher and Higher’ by Jackie Wilson, which was a lively and extended version!

Today we played a beautiful ceremony and Cocktail hour at the Botanical gardens. I was joined on cello by the very talented Noah Hoffeld. The ceremony was outdoors overlooking the river and the cocktail hour was in the Garden Terrace Room and the outdoor space. The Garden Terrace Room was just recently renovated which adds even more beauty to an already amazing venue.
