Keedie & James's
Engagement Party

The Spinning Wheel Inn, Seafront, Paignton, Devon




  

The Spinning Wheel on Paignton Seafront has a long established reputation for being the No.1 entertainment venue in Torbay. An atmospheric series of bars serving ales, beers, lagers, wines and spirits as well as a large selection of non-alcoholic drinks, the Spinning Wheel also provides an exciting program of nightly entertainment, including live music, dance music with resident DJ and weekly karaoke. What better place to have your party?

Keedie & James wanted their Engagement Party to be totally fantastic - it had to be in their home town - with family and friends - and at the venue where so many magical memories were revived - it had to be where Keedie, at the age of 11 years old, first started out on the road to becoming one of the worlds top female classical/pop singers so they chose the Spinning Wheel - and what a totally fantastic party it was!!

For many years Keedie, her sister Nadine and best friend Kelly (performing as Keedie & Co) entertained Torbay holidaymakers and locals at the Spinning Wheel with their pulsating pop songs and it was the perfect foundation for Keedie to develop her phenominal natural talent for singing,

For the years that followed, and after winning many major talent shows as a solo artist, it was time to release her first single record to the world.  'I Believe My Heart', which she duetted with Duncan from the band Blue, shot straight to No2 in the charts (No1 in the North West charts!) and this was closely followed by the release of her first classical/pop album also titled 'I Believe My Heart' which went storming into the classical charts at No4.

Did the titles of these two hit records mean anything to Keedie at that time? well, they have certainly followed her heart to the man she loves and adores and who she will marry one day in the future.  Believing her heart has now come true!
