Our Wedding
In the continued trend of catching up with the period of no blogging, many of you will already know that on August Bank Holiday Cheryl and Myself were married. It was the perfect day, and all the planning (one of the reasons why I stopped blogging) all paid dividends in the end.
We were got married in a wonderful place called Simonstone Hall in Hawes in North Yorkshire. It was the Hotel I took Cheryl to after proposing to her at Aysgarth falls. We could only have dreamt at that time that two short years later we would be getting married there.
The weekend did not get off to the best start as on the Friday morning James and Lynne (Best man and Bridesmaid) had a burglary, and then on the way up to North Yorkshire the top box on my car opened and scattered clothes over the A1, in the rush to get packed I had forgotten to lock it, however, it was good to get rid of anything that was going to go wrong before the wedding rather than on the day!
We had found two very special cottages for the evening before, one for the Girls and one for the Boys. I am sure the Cheryl will agree that we were both given a special evening, bottles of Champagne and some great food, followed by games and an early night (no really, an early night).
The day its self went perfectly, Cheryl’s drive over buttertubs pass in a vintage Rover went without a hitch, and everyone got there safely, the ceremony was all we wished for and the wedding breakfast food was a delight. A great day was had by all.
Eva was of course the star of the show in her little party dress, she was as good as gold and stole everyone’s hearts.
Here are a few photographs selected from the many that we had taken.
