Wedding
We got married in our local church late July 2001 and had our
wedding reception at our house, in a marquee outside the barn (and in the barn itself).
The day was gloriously hot and everyone had a great time.
Anyway, here's our virtual wedding album, full of photos of the wedding day and our
relatives and friends' deteriorating sobriety.

Fortunately help did arrive.

It was all a bit much for one of the younger guests
(April - the best man's daughter). |
