I just booked an early summer, on the beach (in Cape May NJ) barefoot, Hawaiian shirt wedding ceremony with my SMALLEST setup ever - Ukelele and vocals! I will bring a battery powered amp in case the wind factor is in play, but it's a one trip from the car deal, for sure ... I'm excited! Somewhere over the Rainbow for processional and Wipeout for recessional! Fun, huh?

Good luck Dave sounds like a fun Gig....weather permitting.
Are you playing for the reception also ?

Barefoot weddings are a lot of fun. I did one on a houseboat last summer - it was a ball.

Wipeout on ukelele?!?!? ... you GOTTA record that for me ...

WAIT ... it's been done already !!! ...

Here's some photos of the one I did on the houseboat.







No one wore shoes, the booze flowed, the music went on till late into the evening and the bridge and groom now live on the house boat, which is currently in Hilton Head, SC.

Cheers,

Gary

Cape May is an interesting location regarding climate. I read it is the mildest spot in that part of the US East coast, which is logical due to the peninsular position. Is it possible to grow subtropical plants there? I guess not, I found the northernmost point to reliably grow citrus plants or palm trees is Virginia Beach - although I don't know how well such plants are doing there now after the last winter in the Eastern US. (Sorry for the OT post).

I'm excited because it's a very good friend/coworker's daughter, and an honor to be trusted with the ceremony. Her uncle has a classic rock band who will do the reception as I enjoy dinner and conversation with the guests. Nice work if you can get it!
As for "wipeout" ... the bride is expecting a track with my lead, but who knows - maybe I can work up a better arrangement solo. Either way - can't wait.

Dave, I have a style file for Wipeout, but it's a Yamaha style. If you want to convert it, I'll be more than happy to email it to you.

Thanx Gary ... I think I'm going to go old school on it.
