Gig Report: Mardi Gras @ The Waters

Sunday, February 14th, 2010

Mardi Gras @ The WatersThe most anticipated gig of the year…the coolest venue of the year…the coldest gig of the year…!

We were incredibly excited that out friends at The Waters asked us back for the second year in a row to entertain at their incredible Mardi Gras party!  Only one day after the blizzard of 2010 covered Montgomery and much of the Southeast with a blanket of snow, we were rockin’ the paty in the middle of the lake with our friends!  Everybody had a great time, and we’ll save the date for next year!  Check out the pics!

The Bell wedding!  Click for photosWe had a wonderful time back in November entertaining at Chris & Tiffany Bell’s wedding out at The Sonnet House, a beautiful venue in Leeds, AL.  The couple was happy, the food was amazing, the place was beautiful, and the music was flowing.  They had an AU/UA theme going on that was a lot of fun.

These pics were shot by Gretchen Birdwell of Gretchen B Photography.  Thanks, Gretchen!
