Annabel & Ted Ottrey

31 March 2012 Wedding: CAT GUT and STEEL AKA 'RADLER' Ted and I would like to say a huge thank you to the Radler who played at our wedding on the 31st March. They did a fantastic job and everyone has commented on how great the band was and how much fun they had with the ceilidh dancing. Thank you to Mike for his expert calling, for giving in to a demanding bride for a Dashing White Sergeant, and organising the first dance! We both loved all the music and dancing. It certainly topped off an amazing day for us both and made for a very memorable evening, thank you! Annabel & Ted Ottrey annabeltrust@hotmail.com
