| This photo is by me, which is why it's not so good...but it was such a lovely scene I had to try... |
...i'd like to say that we started on time, as Erica was all dressed, coifed, primped and ready to head down the aisle, but the bus that was bringing most of the guests from Stirling got caught in the tailback from the roadwork’s at Broxden...so for once we had the bride waiting for the guests, rather than the guests waiting for the bride!
That kind of delay may be inevitable on occasion, and it is usually not a problem to hold things up for a wee while, but it can be worth checking local events and letting your guests know if a delay is likely...so Highland Games, sports events and music festivals have all caused delays to ceremonies I was conducting...but the record goes to one much loved but slightly dotty Gran who took an alternative route the whole way round Loch Tay to get to the Kenmore Hotel...we started 75 minutes late...but the guests were in fine voice by then since they had been in the bar all that time, so the upside was that the singing was braw!
No singing at Jo & Erica's ceremony...but a great competition that was to run all day...Jo is a serious Star Wars geek, and the guests could earn 'nerd' points by spotting all the references or lines they managed to sneak into the speeches and the ceremony...I suspect there was a line in the vows too, but I'll have to watch all the films again to be sure!
I really couldn't choose which pictures to go with here, so here's a link to the Photographers page too, and can see them all!

The huge flower heart was made by Louise, a friend of the bride...and many couples used it as a backdrop for photos of themselves in their glad rags after the ceremony, an unintended bonus!
