Vicky and her father arriving at the church door,

being greeted by a very nice chap who explained that he was the vicar.

(one of the most helpful vicars that I’ve came across in the Church of England . . . !)

above – we see the groom – Charlie Alder, and his lovely lady Vicky in the background.

she looks like a painting, don’t you think ?

in fact – the whole image looks a bit like a painting to me.

next . .

music maestro

(everyone hopped over to Vickys mum and dads farm – Lee farm,

for the wedding breakfast)

inside the marquee – were several musicians making music,

picture of musicians making music below . .

more to follow.

I’ve now got hundreds of pictures from this lovely wedding,

I hope to upload them onto the internet shortly.

OK – it’s just a picture of a girl in a field.

well . . actually . .

it’s part of a model portfolio.

she’s a good model,

so – if anyone out there needs a model – email me and I’ll send you her name.

I just thought I’d slip this picture onto the blog before tomorrows wedding at Brinkburn Priory,

tomorrows weather forecast is for heavy rain . .

I don’t really want heavy rain, nor does the rather lovely bride . . .

but . if it rains . we can’t let it spoil the day.

I still need to produce good results, whatever the weather.

and had their wedding reception there . ..

but since they own their own rather nice restaurant in Wooler, called the Milan Restaurant . .

they hosted a large party for their evening guests in Wooler,

there was pink champagne, there were roulette tables . .

hey . .wait on a moment, roulette tables ?  what’s that all about ?

read on . .

(I’m still working on the pictures, so this is a little preview)

and also . . I almost forgot . . .

Ellie likes the Sea,

she likes the sea, so much, that it was important to make sure that some part of the wedding day

was spent near to the sea . . therefore . . we have pictures of . . . Ellie and Phillip, near to the  sea . . .

guess who this is ?

yep . . you guessed correctly – it’s Phillip, otherwise known as ‘the groom’

and this little feller is known to all as J.C.

don’t ask why

why ?

because I don’t know the answer, that’s why . .

anyway – he was the ringbearer.

(that sounds like something from Lord of the Rings, doesn’t it !)

change subject . . I’m digressing . .

and next  . . . I took a picture ‘over’ the rings being exchanged – focussing on J.C.

like so . .

ah . but you want to see the venue . . Doxford Hal,

and you want to see the sea

and you want to see Milan Restaurant . .

hold on a minute, be patient,will you !

I’m going as fast as I can  here . ..

this is Doxford Hall (or the picture above is anyway)

didn’t they get tremendous weather !

(we booked it . . we bribed the weather man on the BBC

so that he would say ‘wall to wall sunshine today’

. . it cost a pretty penny to do that, I can tell you . . )

what – you’d like to see  another picture . .

oh well – here goes . .

ok . who is complaining that I’d promised the sea and haven’t yet shown you the sea ?

below – we have a picture of . . .

well . actually . . . I became rather fascinated by the brilliant blue sky . . .

so it’s more a picture of a sky than anything else.

( I know, I know, she’s the girl who likes the sea . . gimme a chance will you . .

I did make lots of pictures showing ‘the sea’ but this is the sky . .(and a bit of sea)

but I thought that, being England, and finding a brilliant sky like that . .

well . . it doesn’t happen every day does it ?

hmm . .

more pictures . . in no particular order,

did I mention Roulette ?

well – this isn’t Roulette. so there.

although there was a roulette table at Milan Restaurant . .

just not in this picture – that’s all

this picture is of a . . . .

I dunno what it is.

it’s some kind of giant gambling wheel thing.

how should I know what it is ?.

mutter mutter grumble  and for the hard of hearing – I’ve given subtitles to this picture – it’s Ellie throwing her bouquet at the end of the evening.

yes . . . I know –  she’s throwing it at a group of girls, not at the end of the evening . . .

lots more pictures to come . . I’ve been working on them all week . . still not finished . .

ooh . . and it’s Friday already . .

ttfn
