One of the most elegant of the town halls of Paris, that of the 17th arrondissement played host to Sadia and Steve's wedding. I played 'Here, There and Everywhere' and others during the ceremony and then continued during the reception with two hours of French chanson arrangements and Latin American music that had some singing along and foot tapping.
On a blustery Sunday in late October I performed another proposal, this time under the arches around the outside of the Jardins du Palais Royale. For Rugby player Richard Keatley and his now fiancée TV star Lisa Cannon, I played and sung an acoustic arrangement I made of Snow Patrol's very appropriate song 'Just Say Yes'. Thankfully she did, and I retain my clean, 100% Yes rate for proposals. Hooray!
