Gemma & Paul 16th June 2007

Well, we had a wonderful day at Gemma and Paul's wedding on Saturday. We had been constantly checking the weather forecasts all week leading up to it, and the outlook was getting grimmer and grimmer. We've worked in all weathers in the past so a bit of summer rain certainly didn't faze us, but when, on Friday, I found myself driving through 6 inches of water we kind of expected difficult conditions for Saturday.

We needn't have worried. The weather could hardly have behaved better for Gemma and Paul. During the church ceremony someone (us??!!) must have been praying extra hard, as when Mr. & Mrs. Williams stepped outside for the first time as husband and wife, the sun broke through and the wedding party was bathed in June sunshine.

The whole day was such a joyful occasion, and Gemma and Paul both radiated happiness all day. The reception was at
Crathorne Hall. It's the first time we've worked there an we were so impressed with the beauty of the location and the professionalism of all the staff who worked so hard to make Gemma and Paul's wedding day such a success. A special mention must go to our friends Wendy and Nick Sampson of flowers* who provided the beautiful floral arrangements (obviously!) They really did help make the most of the stunning location.

I'll post a few pictures of the day here, and I'll link into the full slideshow when I've done a bit more work on the images.

To Gemma & Paul: Thank you so much for allowing us to share in your special day. We wish you both lots of love and happiness for your future together.
