A great day of (some) tears and lots of laughter.

These are just some images which I have purloined from various cameras which give an idea of this great day of celebration.

The Bridal Bouquet.

As they walk back down the aisle they admired the choir singing them out.

Some of my sisters and sisters in law

The Golden Couple Going Away
Have a great honeymoon!

A few of the highlights for me were.

The sun miraculously coming out for the duration of the ceremony
just around the church!
(My brother said to me:
“Do you realise its raining 4 miles down the road?”
I told him that 4 miles around the church was all we could afford.)

Aonghus’s epithalamium* which was so emotional and sincere that there was
a strong possibility that he would be drowned out by the audible sobs.
(*Look it up!)

The beautiful Bass dish cooked by Eric Theze the chef in Faithlegge.

Madrigallery, singing like angels in the church and then (a text book example of Bathos) singing the chorus of “Treat me Daughter Decent” with me.”

The bun fight Chez Nous the day after, and all the couple’s lovely young friends
talking to and thanking us wrinklies.

A great day was had by all.
