Oh, and a piper needs to be in a room with ceilings higher than 9'. Really.
Oh, and before anyone tosses a bouquet -- look up. Make sure there's no
glass stuff dangling from the ceiling in the area in which tossing will
occur. (With the way the staff was saying that they get people breaking the
dangly glass stuff all the time, you'd think they might think to point it
out!)
(Both of those learned the hard way from the same wedding. Having the band
first in the little room and the piper later in the bigger room rather than
the piper first in the smaller room and the band in the bigger room might
have been nicer.)
(My own bouquet just hit regular ol' ceiling tiles and then hit the floor
kinda hard.)
