My aunt's wedding

I went to my aunt’s wedding party. She is 60 years old and the bridegroom is 61. This is the second marriage for my aunt and the first marriage for her husband. They both work in the same organization and they got to know through an executive.

My aunt asked me to perform at the wedding. I planned to form “in-law’s big band”. I thought a bigger band would be more fun. However not many of my relatives can play instruments. My cousins have never learned instruments, so I asked them to play congas and tambourine. I asked my uncle to be a backing vocalist because he had also never learned to play instruments. My father was a guitar player when he was young, but he hadn’t played for about 25 years, so I asked him to practice hard. My mother can sing because she has string lung. My aunt in law is taking violin lessons, but she had never played in front of others. My wife is a good piano player and I play guitar. We could only practice two times, but it sounded good because my wife’s piano playing carried the band.

Most of the party participants were over 60 years old. We played old songs that were around when they were young, so they really enjoyed our music.
