Tonight, we played as an opener (of sorts) for a wedding reception. There was a main band in the room for dancing; we were in the lobby as more or less atmospheric music for cocktails.
The evening started off a little bit off-kilter. Due to various miscommunications, we were a bit on the late side of starting. Once we got going, though, things were pretty good. In my opinion, we carried out the songs a little longer than we should have, and there was one tune that was just a bloody train wreck from start to finish. Still, most of the audience seemed to enjoy themselves and we had a good time.
I had never been to a Persian wedding before. Since I wasn't an invited guest, I suppose that I still have not, but it was an interesting experience from my perspective. Everyone seemed to be having fun, the bride was beautiful and the groom handsome and there was lots of music, food and dancing. Compared to the drudgefests/wakes that were some weddings I have recently attended, this seemed to be quite the improvement.
